[Video 03/Action]

[The blond pops up on the screen with a background that is clearly not anywhere in Kanto. Heck, to the trained eye it's clearly Goldenrod. The Goldenrod Department store roof to be exact. Of course he'd find the tallest building in the entire place before anywhere useful, like a hotel.]

I got a question!

[He adjusts the screen as something off screen gets his attention.]

We can do that later, Demyx. [Attention back to the viewer.]

Are you supposed to tell people before or the day of that it's your birthday? Because I forgot to do it before leaving! I picked today! Sorry, Naminé and Xion. I was gonna tell you! I swear!

[His gaze drifts off of the screen before flicking back to the feed.]

Oh yeah! Where's the best place to take bird Pokémon in Goldenrod?


[ACTION]

[Roxas turned off the feed and stood there watching the sky for a while. Goldenrod wasn't as nice with the circus not in full swing. That had been fun. Maybe he could find something just as fun for his self-made birthday. Rin wouldn't be here for another week at least, so Roxas will take his time exploring.

He tells his Pokémon not to fly off too much in case he needs them, heading down to the bottom floor of the store to exit. Maybe he could find that Honeyed Soul place and get something sweet for himself. You're supposed to have cake, right?]

I don't know what a Honeyed Soul is supposed to look like...

[seasaltkey]

Really? That sounds great! I'll be cheering for you!

[shatterings]

I just... hope I can do well.

[seasaltkey]

I know you will! You're stronger than you think.

[shatterings]

Roxas... thank you. I'll do my best.

[seasaltkey]

I think once I meet Rin, I'll go traveling to get some badges. I don't want them all, but I think a few would be cool. I've only got one right now.

[shatterings]

Rin--a friend of yours? [ She nods, giving him a smile. ] Mm. I believe in you, Roxas. Your Pokémon are so strong, too.

[seasaltkey]

Yeah. He's really nice, and he can cook!

[He looks proud now.] I do my best to raise them!

[shatterings]

Do you think he'll make you good food?

[ She nods, smiling, and there's even a bit of pride there, too. ] Mm. I can tell.

[seasaltkey]

I hope so. He works for a place called Honeyed Soul.

Hey, you're good with yours, too! They love you! Though... does Hope not like me? He keeps staring...

[shatterings]

Oh-- That's where Rise works. I've been wanting to try something from there...

[ She sighs, patting Hope's head. ] No... he doesn't exactly dislike you.

[seasaltkey]

Want me to send you something? Apparently they deliver!

Then what does he want from me? I try and feed him treats. Ellie eats them!

[shatterings]

O-oh! Um, you don't have to, but... thank you.

I... think he's curious about you.

[seasaltkey]

I want to!

Curious? How?

[shatterings]

Well... I'd like that, then. Thank you, Roxas.

He's not sure what to make of you, I think.

[seasaltkey]

Do you have a favorite sweet?

Oh... is it because I have a bunch of birds and Sky's afraid of him?

[shatterings]

Chocolate, I think.

It... might be, yes.

[seasaltkey]

Right! They probably have a lot of chocolate.

Oh... should I get an Espurr then?

[shatterings]

Do you think so? That does sound about right...

Well... only if you want to. Would Sky be alright with that?

[seasaltkey]

I'll find the best ones.

Hmm.. she likes taking care of the eggs, so she might be less afraid if she helps hatch it. I can always stick wings on it.

[shatterings]

Oh... thank you. [ Again. ] You're so thoughtful, Roxas.

A-as long as it doesn't think it can actually fly.

[seasaltkey]

I am?

...... I'll teach it that it can't.

[shatterings]

Y-yes. Very much so.

Um... please do.

[seasaltkey]

Thanks then.

I don't think I want it to get hurt... I might have to keep the windows closed.

[shatterings]

I think that might be best... I know they're very strong, but...

[seasaltkey]

No risking it! I don't like it when they get hurt...
