Sea Witch and Hook Game - w/ Kitsunebi

[twilight_boy]

[It's dark enough in the cell that you might not see him turning off-white as the rules of the game become clear, but you can see his shoulders hunch and his fists clench at his sides.]

Oh, no way!

[twilight_boy]

[okay, breathe and focus] Hey.

[goneastray]

[Ears so down. ;;]

I don't want anyone to die...

[twilight_boy]

No, me neither.

[goneastray]

[Whiiiiines.]

What are we supposed to do?

[twilight_boy]

Well, if we can think of a good thing to trade, we'll both be okay.

If not... I'll be okay, if it's me.

[goneastray]

No! Ventus will be really upset.

[twilight_boy]

[sighs] Yeah, I know he will be. But he knows that happens to me, sometimes.

[goneastray]

What does Roxas mean?

[twilight_boy]

Well... I've died in games before, so Ven and I talked about these sorts of things.

[goneastray]

I've never... died. But... I'm not afraid. If it'll protect Roxas.

[twilight_boy]

[puts a hand on his head, if he'll let him] You shouldn't have to, though. Neither of us should have to.

[goneastray]

[Tail between legs...]

... What do you think they want from us?

[twilight_boy]

[petting, gently]

At this point, I think Hook wants me to not Keyblade him in the face, after what he did to Mau. [muttered]

But that's not going to help us, I'm pretty sure.

[goneastray]

What did he do to Mau?

[twilight_boy]

He kidnapped him, when we were on that boat. And brought him back pretty banged up. [to put it mildly]

[goneastray]

He hurt him?

[twilight_boy]

[nods]

[goneastray]

I'll bite him!

[twilight_boy]

[rakes a hand through his own hair] I gotta say, I am so tempted to bargain with 'neither of us will kick Hook's ass.' Really not sure it's a good idea, but tempted.

[getting up to pace]

[goneastray]

... We could bargain our forgiveness. Say we'll be nice to him and tell others too. Even if we don't really mean it. That... would be hard.

[twilight_boy]

I wonder if he cares about nice, though.

[goneastray]

I don't know. But if he knows it'll really upset us, that might be enough... And it would because he hurt our friend.

[twilight_boy]

[gets a laugh startled out of him] Yeah, it'd certainly bother me. I can almost see it.

[goneastray]

And I think she would like it too...
