time to have some fun [Open]

[whodoyou-see.livejournal.com]

Character(s): Everyone who wants to be!
Content: An epic game of tag
Setting: The park
Time: Forward dated to Week 29

Xion waited eagerly at the park with Hope. The post on the message board got a lot of replies, even by people she didn't know. In some ways, she was a little nervous... but mostly excited. This was new, and different, and she couldn't wait to see how playing a game actually went.

[ooc: Ok, so this is mostly a free-for-all, but there are a few rules. One, first post will be a ~mingle~ thread. If you want to talk to someone, do so there! (It might be helpful to note if it's a private conversation, or an open one).

Second, for every new person that is 'it,' we'll start a new tag thread. So, say Hope tags Xion- we'll move from the previous thread and Xion would start a new one. Make sense? There's not really a posting order going, just tag (haha) when your character is being chased, or when you feel like it, or whatever.

Third, action tags are allowed! They are not required, but if it's easier then go ahead.

If you show up late, don't worry about it! It's tag. Seriously, join and leave whenever you want.]

Xion nodded, looking around to see if she could spot her. "I know she is." After all, that was the main reason she was in a girl in the first place. Though... meeting her might be a little weird. How would she even start talking to her?

"You would know that, wouldn't you?" After all, she did say that some of Sora's strongest memories were of Kairi. Riku stood, offering her and hand to get to her feet.

"It wasn't fair." He "looked" briefly away and then back at her. "If Sora's awake and you were mostly made up of his memories, and everyone forgot you... I can guess what you did." There was the subtlest hint of a nod.

Xion took Riku's hand, standing up and somewhat avoiding Riku's gaze. "I'm not there yet," she said quietly, "I know from seeing him here that I will, and... I guess I've known for a while that sooner or later, it would happen. I know it's selfish, but when I last saw you I just... I wasn't ready to leave my friends. I'm not sure if I'm ready now either, but if something happens I promise I'll do whatever I need to." Right now, Sora didn't need her. But it could change, because he wasn't supposed to be alright without her and Roxas.

She didn't want to go yet, but Sora was so important. After meeting him, she knew that for sure.

Riku glanced away. "Put in the same situation, it wouldn't be easy for me, either. I had to set some things right once, too. Only difference is that I had myself to blame." He looked back to her after a moment, then put a hand on her shoulder.

"If I was going to forget all this, then I guess there's one thing I never got to do, regardless of where you ended up." He looked into her eyes, his tone smooth and as sincere as ever. "...Thank you."

Xion looked up at him, feeling her breathing hitch a little when he said that. Honestly, that wasn't something she'd ever expected. Doing what she had to do... that's all it ever once. Not even really a choice, even though Riku had been nice enough to present it that way. It was the inevitable, something that would have happened no matter what.

To be thanked for it was different. Strange, even. But not unwelcome.

She smiled slightly at him, her (maybe false but no less present) heart lifting in her chest. Those words made the decision so much easier, for some reason. Even if they would be forgotten.

Realizing that she didn't know how to respond to it, she turned to glance over at Sora. "Do you know why he's alright?" she asked, looking back at Riku, "Even with me and Roxas here?" She hadn't been able to figure that out yet, though she was grateful.
