{A small graphite drawing of an old fashioned skeleton key - not a keyblade, just a key - with a cloth bunched around it but not folded over. The item of interest in the drawing (that is, the key) is clearly visible.}
[He hadn't said a word to Roxas on the walk over that morning, and had skipped out absent on ice cream time, the evening before.
...and the cold shouldering and the shake offs of 'its nothing' took on immediate clarity when terse, accusatory voice message finally blinked onto Roxas' NV.]
So um...it's me. I'm renting a boat for the 23rd that'll go all the way around the island in continuous loops. At 5pm it'll be at the Southwest dock for refueling and I'm jumping off 'cuz I gotta take Hikaru for a walk. I won't be going back as it'll leave at 5:30 and Hikaru's walk takes longer than that so...yeah...
Hey, I know it's been like...unbearably hot and all. I'm not really using my apartment right now so there's two bedrooms and a couch, it gets a bit of a cool breeze if you open all the windows because the ocean is cool. Plus it's like five minutes down to the water and I've got a bunch of beach stuff.
Don't got an air conditioner but I've got a swamp cooler that should help during the hot parts. You all can use it while I'm gone, if you want.
[One large, white envelope with the name 'ROXAS' printed on the front. A pack of stickers can be found inside. The first sticker sheet is made up of glow-in-the-dark stars, the other sheets are assorted symbols and smiley faces. There's no note with the envelope.]
Hey, kid. It's Jinx. I'm just calling to check up on you. Well, at least we know Terra's not crazy? Just, if you need to talk, I'm, uh, here? For you. Or whatever. This overly polite dude's got nothing on you, okay? So... yeah. Stay you.
[ Ringy dingy~ to your NV Roxas <3 And since she'll probably get voice mail: ]
Roxas? It's Kairi. I wanted to know if you still want to go to the mall after work today. We can stop by my place too; dinner's my treat.
[ OOC: Can handwave the shopping trip if you want to go straight to the chat though! Also I would have done this last night but was up late goofing off :D; ]
Roxas! Guess what, Axel found us a new place to live! It's really nice, and we can decorate it however we want. You should come and see it later today if you've got time; I think we need a housewarming party.
Hey, you never called me back, didn't you get my message? Anyway, I'm not mad. But, um, I'm going to try and make spaghetti tonight for dinner, and you should come over and eat it with us. We don't have a table yet, but we can have like a picnic or something, it'll be fun.
Call me back and I'll get started on your spaghetti!
Roxas, are you OK? I haven't heard anything from you, are you sick or something?
OK. Here's what I'm going to do. If you don't call me back by lunchtime I'm going to come and see you at work, and if you're there then you have to buy me ice cream because I'm starting to get worried.
