Maybe people weren't so bad, after all...

Characters: Roxas and you!
Setting: Floor Twenty | Floor Fourteen
Format: You choose, I'll follow.
Summary: A morning spent sitting on the stone ramp, then a horrible attempt at playing video games.
Warnings: Sappy friendship, and Roxas being pleasant for a change.

Floor Twenty, morning;
He was alive, which was good. While embarrassing, his second death due to exhaustion seemed pretty far behind him, now. He'd actually begun sleeping in his room again, even. Sure, maybe he was still wary, but healthy caution and not outright paranoia. Actually, he wanted to talk to Eiji personally, but...well, embarrassment.

So, Roxas went to the new stone path, sit on an edge and dangle his legs off. It was the best way he knew to think, even if the view wasn't nearly as nice as it was at home.

Floor Fourteen, afternoon;
Trying to be socially proactive was...well, harder than he'd thought. Not that Roxas anticipated apologies being easy, but his head wasn't getting any clearer the more he sat and dwelled on it. Instead, he decided to take a break and explore some of the other floors a bit...and got sucked in to playing a random videogame about...catching eggplants? After four times of complete and total failure, Roxas dropped the controller with a huff.

"What's the point of these games, anyway...?" Even as he said that, he began rooting through the other games, looking for something a little less futile.

[Ed didn't understand the appeal of all this stuff and video games confused him the most. He understood them -- objectives were easy to figure out, sometimes they were explicitly stated and after getting over the initial awkward fumbling with the controller, the controls weren't difficult to learn either. He just didn't understand why people thought they were so great.

He stood near the wall, watching Roxas' last few attempts with mild curiosity.

No idea. I've been trying to figure that out myself.
unexculpable: (It'll work.)

How? I mean, what educational value is there in catching falling eggplants?

Did you say... wait, a flight simulator?
