[ A little after some talking, Roxas had walked back into his room with sea-salt ice cream. Though there was a lot of them with him. He wanted to save some for tomorrow morning (before trial) too. ]
Guess what I brought?
[ His smile's not as bright it'd normally been before all of this, but... ]
[ Yoshi is completely invisible - downsides to phasing through doors - but the indent on the corner of the bed more than likely gives his position away. ]
[ There's a hint of brightening at the ice cream, but... less than there would even normally be. He does walk over to take two of them from Roxas, letting the forefinger of each hand brush Roxas' hands as he does... And then he's carrying one over to said indent. ]
He's right, it's called sea-salt ice cream. I used to share it with the people I knew back home.
[ Their slightly elevated spirits seem to be muted right now, but it's at least vaguely there nonetheless. Roxas follows Vanitas back over to the bed, his hand reaching out to see if it could fit around Vanitas' waist from behind. ]
[ And that gesture of Roxas' has his cheeks darkening just a tiny bit, but he won't move away. If anything, he very discreetly shifts so he's leaning against the blond. ]
Think it could have been made after my time?
[ That is said to Roxas before he glances in the general direction of the indent. ]
Outside, huh... [ ... ] If everyone got brought back, what would you do after all this is over?
[ Aw, Vanitas...his lips curl up a little when he feels the other leaning against him. ]
Maybe it was? Or you'd just never seen it before even though it was ... I've really only seen this ice cream while I was in Twilight Town, but not any of the other worlds I've been to.
[ So he wouldn't be surprised if Vanitas had missed it at all due to lack of appropriate world visiting. It'd be like finding a needle in a haystack... ]
[ Yeah he doesn't actually need to have math eyes to notice that, you saps. Good thing they can't see him seeing it. Just innocently eating ice cream over here, yup. ]
if we all get brought back, i'm probably on tracking duty again
[ Which. He now has complicated feelings on. Ice cream is a good excuse not to go into it, actually. ]
Vanitas starts eating his own ice cream, a thoughtful look on his face. He'd considered that, too, honestly - if anything, there are other reasons he's considering the different time thing, but he won't be going into that here. ]
Never heard of that world, either. [ small nod ] Maybe that's why.
[ He quietly studies a random spot on the wall - he doesn't know where to actually look, to look at Yoshi. So. ]
Anyway, Roxas is sure thinking about their conversation about Vanitas seeing Axel's somebody, but that is kind of not exactly at the forefront of his mind right now. ]
And that's why I definitely need to show you around that world sometime - if we get out of this alive. It's really a nice place to be.
[ Preferably in the middle of or after trashing the Foundation. ]
[ Vanitas wouldn't mind seeing more worlds after this, and it's a strange realization. So strange, he's... going quiet, apparently. He's staring down at the device, his expression dimming.
He hasn't touched the ice cream since that first bite. ]
[ Gods, no they can't, but all of that from Yoshi causes Roxas to press his lips together, and then: ]
...Yoshi, you can come too. I don't want you drifting alone with whatever - or just going back to the Foundation.
Twilight Town's quiet, safe, and it's not too small so you can bring other people with you if you want.
[ Roxas has noticed Vanitas' reticence, however, and moved that hand from his waist to grasp his lover's free hand, giving it a gentle squeeze right after. ]
[ Roxas gives his boyfriend a soft look when he does, beginning to rub a thumb over his fingers, and continuing even when he's turning his head to look over at the floating ice cream. ]
Basically, what he said. And I don't want to really go back to the Foundation unless it means we can instantly just trash it.
[ And thinking about it, the blond might have a plan in regards to any lingering "bugs" because he's not dumb. He already knows it was a thing for one of them. But, he's not going to get ahead of himself just yet. Still... ]
[ Oh, you two. If they all get out of here, he's definitely got to tease Vanitas about it later.
He doesn't have much to say on the topic of the Foundation - he's still not sure what to think about it for now - so the question is much preferred, and he licks idly at his ice cream while he types away. ]
156cm
or 5'1" i think?
[He has no idea which measurement system they use, but he's pretty short.]
[ He gives a dim smirk at the question marks and then looks to Roxas with a faintly quirked brow. You'll tell him later, right?
There's a brief pause... and then he presses a brief kiss to Roxas' cheek. 'Cause, whatever... Hiding things from Yoshi seems a little pointless at this... point. Also, Roxas talking like this is nice? ]
Clearly, they just need some hard rewiring...
[ Look, he learned a word! And used it correctly!! ]
We can clear out the trash and leave whatever little bit is worth keeping around.
It isn't a surprise if I just tell you, Yoshi. Wait until later, okay?
[ When Vanitas turns to him with a quirked brow, he'll just give a nod. He seems to have understood the question being asked of him there. ]
You mean leave a pile of ashes, don't you?
[ That's...definitely a smirk of sorts that doesn't often appear on his face, even if his cheeks are coloring a bit from the kiss. Yeah, he's spiteful.
[ But then there's a kiss and, oops, there's a mischievous giggle that even they can hear, albeit quiet and ghostly. C'mon, he's right here, he's not blind. It does cut off at the comments about the Foundation, though. ]
[ Looks like it's a bit late for that, huh? Roxas just ends up giving Yoshi another small smile indicative of 'it's a secret', so he is definitely not going to say just yet.
...But his cheeks continued to glow red because of that laugh. ]
Is that your way of saying congratulations?
[ That's totally something he just blurted right out like an idiot, yep. ]
Those people already hurt so many, it's only fair.
[The ice cream's mostly gone, so he sets to work finishing it off. It's a lucky thing he doesn't have to worry about expressions right now, because his is troubled.
Well- he'd said it to Kohaku, didn't he? If he ended up on the wrong side, if he ended up as someone's enemy... If it made them happier to carry out their justice on him, that was fine too, wasn't it?
Because in the end, he can't imagine himself leaving the Foundation. Not really. Traveling to another world and escaping with his friends is just a fantasy.
Eventually however, he's down to just the stick, and this he leaves him his mouth while he types with both hands again.]
yup, congratulations!! you two are cute together :>
[ He's staring at Roxas over that question for just a moment, though... well. He already resigned himself to the fact that the dead can likely see just about anything, anyway.
But then there's what's put on that device. There's just the quietest sound as he lets his face drop into his face. ]
It's nice to know whenever someone thinks of their relationship in a positive light, even if it's kind of embarrassing him right now still, evident by his obvious, lingering blush. ]
...Thanks, I guess. [ ... ] By the way, even though Vani said that too, he's probably really happy you actually said 'congrats' too.

It's not bad.

Let me know how it tastes, okay?
no subject
Also a bite just kind of vanishes into nothingness. ~*Ghosts*~
He also now has to type with one hand, but that's okay, he's pretty quick. ]
this is good!! i don't think we have a flavor like this where i'm from
or if we do it's somewhere outside

He does slow down a bit on eating the ice cream, though. Thoughtful. ]
i don't know!
i don't actually have anywhere else to go
i mean... even in my world, mikado - my future self was the one letting me live with him
i don't have any friends there, either
no subject
Yeah...
[ Vanitas wouldn't mind seeing more worlds after this, and it's a strange realization. So strange, he's... going quiet, apparently. He's staring down at the device, his expression dimming.

it would be kind of nice to go someplace peaceful with everybody...
[ Not that he really believes too much in it, though. But there's no indication of that, he just continues eating away at his ice cream. ]
no subject
... It is, actually. [ a beat ] Outside of The Foundation, anyway.
[ Just. Returning to eating ice cream for a moment. ]
no subject
Basically, what he said. And I don't want to really go back to the Foundation unless it means we can instantly just trash it.
[ And thinking about it, the blond might have a plan in regards to any lingering "bugs" because he's not dumb. He already knows it was a thing for one of them. But, he's not going to get ahead of himself just yet. Still... ]
How tall are you again, Yoshi?
no subject

156cm

[He has no idea which measurement system they use, but he's pretty short.]
why?
no subject
The Foundation getting trashed apparently sounds like a good idea to this guy! His eyes briefly light up as he gives a brief smirk. ]
The latter sounds good to me.
[ The height has him not very surprised. Yoshi isn't. that much shorter than Roxas, after all. ]
no subject
[ Yoshi is absolutely getting a coat that is good for traveling through dark portals, yep.
Anyway, Roxas is going to just smile a little when Vanitas says that. ]
I'm glad you think so. No point in drawing it out when it's too terrible of an organization to leave hanging in any way, either.
no subject
[ A surprise?! Now he's super curious. ]
i think it's important to protect this world, but i don't exactly want to help them keep killing people anymore, either

He could only think, They deserve it. ]
no subject
[ But then there's a kiss and, oops, there's a mischievous giggle that even they can hear, albeit quiet and ghostly. C'mon, he's right here, he's not blind. It does cut off at the comments about the Foundation, though. ]
so erasing a threat, huh...
no subject
[ HEY, NO GIGGLING AT THEM... ]
What's with that laugh?
[ Faaaaaint blush... And then he nods. ]
They deserve to pay.
no subject

Is that your way of saying congratulations?
[ That's totally something he just blurted right out like an idiot, yep. ]

yolo, eski and maple can't call me out anymore
