Not gonna do lyrics this time.

Characters:  A bunch of the keyderps and Nobodies and some.
Setting: Spring Floor!
Format: Go wild. |D
Summary: The temperature keeps dropping, and with the power going on and off it's getting pretty cold. After a couple of good suggestions on her network post, Xion decides to try a group bonfire. More people come than she expects.
Warnings: It's a bunch of cold people huddling around a campfire. Probably not going to be much more than PG

[The fire is set a little ways away from the stairs, on a patch of clearer ground. There's a pile of wood nearby, riskily portaled up from the forest floor. But there's enough there to keep the fire going for a few hours at least.

It's not a roaring bonfire or anything, but it should be enough to keep anyone there warmer, at least.]

[[ooc; have at you guys! Tag, tag each other, threadjack, etc. In other words, GO FORTH AND MINGLE.]]

[keybearer]

Huh, that's a new one.

[But... things were probably different for her. Much different, so he's not really surprised.]

I'll have to take good care of it while I'm here, since she's not with me right now.

[attheclocktower]

[Xion nods, hand retreating back under her blanket, now that the memories were dying down again. She... doesn't really know what else to say. She already knows that Kairi is someone very special to Sora, and it's memories of her that make Xion herself. It looked like this Riku - and she wondered about the one she knew - cared about Kairi a great deal too.

Sounds like a good time for a topic change.]

I... don't think I ever said, but... I'm Xion.

[keybearer]

Xion, huh?

[Hm, interesting name. And, hey, it's a segue as good as any, really.]

Well, at least we're on a first name basis now. No need to worry about just saying "you".

[attheclocktower]

Yeah, that's true.

[Even though she knew his name right from the start.

She's not sure what to say after that - small talk has never been a specialty of hers - so she reaches out from under her not-as-thick blanket mountain, picks up some of the wood she got and tosses it on the fire, a little clumsily, sending sparks flying and making her jump back a little with a small squeak surprise.

... it's probably obvious she's never done this sort of thing before.]

[keybearer]

[And that makes Riku laugh. Oh, Xion. It's pretty easy to tell that this is new for her.]

Might want to step back a little before you do that again.

[attheclocktower]

Y-yeah. Right.

[She does back up a little before gently throwing the next branch onto the fire. She inspects her handiwork before pulling her arm back under the blankets.]

Heh, this is the first time I've ever done anything like this...

[Way to say what they're all thinking, Xion.]

[keybearer]

There, that's better.

[See? That wasn't too hard! He smirks, leaning back a little bit.]

But it's not bad for a first try. If these cold temperatures keep up, we might have to do this more often.
