Magic Lessons et al!

[got_it_memorized]

Who: Axel and Anybody, really
Broadcast: None planned
Action: On the Tourist
When: The week of April 5-11

[Axel is actually pretty stoked about giving magic lessons. Even if he's not certain Hiro and Steven will be able to produce magic, it'll be kind of nice to do this again. Showing Roxas the ropes and helping him grow and learn had been a really important part of his life, and he hadn't even fully realized it until Roxas was gone. Roxas had given him a purpose beyond just being the Organization's go-to guy when they needed a job done quick and clean, and that's something he misses. He misses purpose. Well, if a Nobody can miss such things. If a Nobody can miss anything.

[No, he's certain he misses it. He's certain he misses Roxas, too.

[He gave Steven and Hiro open invitations to drop in whenever they had time, so whenever they show up, the lesson can begin! He also gave Kaneis an invitation to pop in to try an orange, since he needs to be educated on such things. Basically, the Tourist is too quiet a lot of the time, so Axel doesn't mind visitors. Wanna hang out? Come on by!]

[Oh, there he is. Time to play cool. Kaneis gives a slight smirk at the greeting and nods.] Yeah well...seemed like a good way to kill time.

[He follows him along to the mess hall, glancing around. It's a bit different from the Wonderduck, but a ship is a ship. When he gets thrown the orange, he catches it easily]

Whoa it's...orange?

[He's not sure what he expected]

We do seem to have a lot of time to kill. [He chuckles.] Maybe we should start a bridge club.

[He actually gives a full laugh when Kaneis notes the color of the orange, though.]

Well, if it was green they probably wouldn't call it an orange, you know? [He points at it, leaning on the counter.] The skin's a bit thick, but it should peel without too much trouble, and then the part you eat is in little sections. It's got seeds, so just watch those. Ah... [He reaches behind him and grabs a little bowl Asteffiel left there.] My lab guy's got a thing for plants, so... if you wouldn't mind saving the seeds, it'd probably make his day.

[wilder]

Isn't Bridge for old people...?

[you don't seem that old Axel. Maybe just a few years older than him, max.]

Peel and save the seeds, got it. [he starts trying to peel it with his finger nails. It takes a bit of digging, but he manages clumsily. But he's startled when some juice comes squirting out] - It sprayed at me!

[got_it_memorized]

Don't burn your Bridges before you try them. [Yes that was a combination pun and idiom. YOLO.

[He watches Kaneis attempt to peel the orange, then laughs a little at his reaction.]

Yes, watch out, that's its natural defense mechanism. You have to be quick, before it realizes what you're doing. [Total srsface.]

[wilder]

....Why would anyone set fire to a bridge before they walk across it? [Axel you're talking to a math major, this a combo too advanced]

[...whut]

Natural defense- please tell me you're joking.

[got_it_memorized]

[He laughs helplessly.]

It's a turn of phrase, Kaneis. [One he twisted into a bad pun, on top of that.] Never mind.

[And then he bites his lip to keep from laughing more. He just nods, trying to suppress his amusement. Yes, he's joking.]
