"I'm not around, so... leave a message, I guess."
zerotohiro: (Well that's a surprise)

[That doesn't sound too promising. He's immediately a little more concerned and giving Roxas his full attention.]

"Some things"? Like...what kind of things?
zerotohiro: (/bitterly stomps on my emotions ANYWAYS.)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-04-22 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's definitely not good.]

...the kind of complicated that would make a little more sense with weird ice cream flavors?
zerotohiro: (Sure)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-04-24 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
It might not make it make more sense but it'll make it better. That's usually how it works. So...that milkshake place? Or the actual ice cream parlor? They're both pretty easy to get to.

[If it helps it's not like Hiro knows how to cope half the time either, but he's going to help him. He's already decided that.]
zerotohiro: (Worried)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-04-26 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
Good point. I'm already on my way, I'll meet you outside.

[There's apparently no argument here. He's already on his way to Roxas and the ice cream parlor and trying to figure out what, exactly, could be wrong with his friend.]
zerotohiro: (I think I get it)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-04-27 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's a rolling sound first. That'll be Roxas's first clue that Hiro's approaching as the wheels spin on the sidewalk and he brings the skateboard to a gentle stop in front of the blond boy on the bench. He leans forward to look at Roxas's screen, waiting until he finishes the round before he grins down at him.

He's still suspicious of what's going on, sure, but he'll let Roxas go his own pace for once.]


At least you found one way to occupy yourself.
zerotohiro: (No kidding?)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-04-30 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not that late. [But he grins anyway as he gestures to the ice cream shop.] Wanna head back in? Unless you wanna grab ice cream and talk out here.

[He's not sure which is better, talking outside where people might overhear or talking inside where they might overhear.]
zerotohiro: (Well that's a surprise)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-05-03 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
You mentioned that sea salt ice cream, right? Think we can get those? [...he's curious okay. But still, he's getting comfortable on the bench and he's patiently waiting, mentally prepping himself for the worst case scenario for whatever Roxas wants to tell him.] Doesn't sound like a bad plan.
zerotohiro: (Amazing)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-05-05 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
[And Roxas was never heard from aga--okay no. It's not that long and Hiro's scrolling through the network when Roxas comes back. He looks up, blinking at the suspiciously-blue ice cream before taking it, cautiously eyeing it even as Roxas settles back in.]

Thanks. [But he's still. Just. Staring at it. And not eating it.] ...so...what exactly happened?
zerotohiro: (Oops)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-05-05 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[You're not his parent, you can't tell him what to do! But he gets that the look is basically "eat your ice cream" so he takes a tentative bite out of the bar.

It's hard to say if that flinch is a reaction to the salty taste or what Roxas says, but beyond that he doesn't comment. Wrinkling his nose, he looks at the ice cream again before he focuses again.

Somewhere in the back of his head, he remembers something Mary told him once.

"I've known him as long as I've known you. And I'm not his best friend, but... I want to help him, more than anything. There's just... I can't solve his problems. They're really complicated... "

Is this it? Is this why?]


I always figured there was kind of a reason you never really talked about yourself. But…what kind of things?
zerotohiro: (No kidding?)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-05-09 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[He's still biting on the ice cream bar, watching Roxas closely as he preps himself to deliver the news. When it comes though, it's not entirely what Hiro was expecting, though it does make things a lot more clear.

Normal people would probably be shocked by the reveal. Normal people would probably have a lot of questions. But Hiro Hamada's been anything but normal most of his life, and the fact that there are several people he's close to in the colony that also aren't human doesn't hurt either.]


...which means what, exactly? You're doing a pretty good job passing off as one. [It's about as non-judgmental as he can make it, but it's something very curious instead.]
zerotohiro: (Tough choices)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-05-11 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[...oh.

...that...explains a lot, he thinks, and he pulls the ice cream away and gives Roxas a quizzical frown as he puzzles that out. How can a person live without a heart? Does that make Roxas just a shell of someone else? No, that wouldn't make sense. Roxas is...Roxas.]


But you're your own person. How can you be leftovers from someone else? [He shakes his head.] I get it, someone can lose their heart to the darkness or have it eaten by those Heartless things or whatever but where do you fit into this? [Xion told him a little bit, but nothing like this.]
zerotohiro: (Wonderment)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-05-12 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Patience usually isn't his strong point, but he recognizes when someone's having trouble talking about something and because Roxas is a friend...he waits. He lets him talk, processing carefully. He can believe all of that. He can buy Roxas being a zombie and not knowing things back then because of his lack of understanding of a lot of things now. He wants to ask who "him" is, but...maybe it doesn't matter. It's the guy Roxas was born from, but he's not Roxas. He's not his friend. So...it doesn't matter.]

Maybe it's not worth remembering if they're not really your memories. What's the point when you can make your own, you know? [Another bite of ice cream.] But...what did you find out anyway?
zerotohiro: (They are here)

[personal profile] zerotohiro 2016-05-16 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[That makes sense. Roxas discovering he has a heart...he thinks he understands enough. He understands what it's like to believe one thing only to have that disproven. It's enough to make anyone's head spin and he can understand why it's such a big deal for his friend.

He doesn't know how many Nobodies Roxas is speaking for, but it sounds like quite a few. He considers that quietly before he speaks in a quieter tone.]


...in a way? Guess that makes sense. [Another small nibble to his ice cream.] Did you know that some species of starfish can regrow a missing limb? Some can even regrow their whole body just from one single limb. They don't have to have anything else. They can regrow a whole new starfish just from one piece and become something else. You--[He points at Roxas with his ice cream then.]--are kinda like that.

[...and he smiles lightly.] On a scale of one to ten, how freaked out are you by learning all of this? How'd you even find out?
