[ Roxas smiles a little, and is probably ends up choosing Rowlet as a starter for sure - after asking Yoshi if he'd like them both to start out with that, anyway. ]
...You were going to mentioned something out loud back there, weren't you? Since we're here, we can play and talk about it.
[ Roxas blinks looking up immediately at the game from that to stare at Yoshi. ]
...
[ Yeah that's not what he expected, but he figures he could tell him a little bit about why he thinks that might've happened. But his eyes fix back onto the game in front of him. ]
A lot of people call me a "nobody" back home. So, that might be why.
[ Roxas is feeling kind of embarrassed but... hey Yoshi doesn't seem bothered, so. Now he's thinking of how to put this easily without making it too confusing. ]
I think the easiest way to describe it is...someone who doesn't exist in the world of light and dark, but in-between? Just pretend people who exist in the realm of light are just your average people and those who exist in dark are people from darkness.
[Around when you end up in a mafia game with fantasy monsters in a resort haunted by your fellow dead captives, some of whom also weren't even human to begin with is around when you just start. Rolling with it.]
I have no idea what people from darkness means, but... does that mean you're kind of like a ghost?
[Or are the people from the dark ghosts? What is this light and dark business anyway??]
[ Damnit he's trying to think of a way to explain this without getting into confusing terminology.
...Wait. ]
People from darkness are like...just imagine people who are naturally affiliated with the dark element - people or creatures of the night.
I'm just someone who'd be in between light and dark - something that's neither of the two.
[ Technically also "something that shouldn't exist/doesn't exist" and maybe someone could say that he's a ghost but once again!! Trying to make this simple...but thanks KH for being weird with things. ]
But you're right in front of me, right? That's like saying a rainbow doesn't exist because you can't touch it. Even if it's just light refracting a certain way for your eyes to pick up, it's still something that can be acknowledged!
Maybe you're just some kind of different life form!
[ At that, Roxas relaxes...looking kind of relieved? Yeah. ]
You're right. That probably sounded silly to say, now that I think about it.
[ The blond hated it when people had said that about Nobodies (more recently) so to hear someone disagree with that is nice? He's even smiling a little. ]

Ow!
[Haha what are reflexes. He doesn't seem too affected though, looking over them curiously.]
Let's see... medieval fantasy... lawyers... oh! A monster catching one?
no subject
Hopefully that's not going to leave a mark.
[ Also this Rper sure did forget we had Awakenings here, so pretend they're like Eliwood-era games. ]
That's probably a funny game to play knowing everything but...it can't hurt playing, right?
[ He'll reach his hand out for the Pokemon game. ]

[And then they're going to run into a wolf one pretty dang early but LUCKILY this is prior to trauma about those particular beasties.]
Yeah, let's give it a try!

Yeah, they do.

Oh- yeah! So whenever I look at you, there's no numbers. Do you know what's up with that?
[Totally normal, totally casual conversation.]

Are you... not human?
[Not that he particularly minds that front, what with Katherine and offering her his own blood. He's just curious!]
no subject
...I'm still a person, even if I'm not human.
[ He sounds like he's prepared to get defensive about it, not exactly knowing Yoshi's track record with non-humans. ]
no subject
[He'll remember that!]
-? I mean, Katherine's a vampire, but she's still a person. And it's not like you're an AI or something, right?
[He hasn't really seen any evidence that Roxas is just some program spitting out reactions. Really, Yoshi's the one who resembles that more.]
Do you mind if I ask what a "Nobody" is, though?

Is that form of yours, like... actually physical?
no subject
[ ... that's probably not what he meant, Roxas. But he's also sure his form is as physical as it gets. ]
no subject
...Yup, that's pretty solid.]
Weird! I have no idea why I can't see any numbers for you!
no subject
Nobody's are also considered something that doesn't really "exist". In the end, we're pretty much nothing when it comes down to it.
Or at least, that's what some people have said. So it might be because of that instead.
