Auradon

Take It or Leaf It

Autumn had begun to set in in Auradon. Normally, for the residents of Auradon Prep it would be a time for bonfire parties, drinking mulled cider, certain dances, festivals, and other seasonal events; as well as chatting about the latest fashion trends in jackets and scarves. But with the current situation and the lack of groundskeepers, Autumn meant that it was time for something else: raking leaves. There were quite a few trees on the grounds and most of them had been turning a variety of bright, fiery colors over the past two weeks. And as was usual for the season, those leaves were rapidly beginning to cover the ground. Which for better or worse meant that it was time for the Misrecalled to grab some rakes and get to work. At least there'd be one - or more - awesome leaf piles for anyone inclined to jump into one at the end of it.

Going Nuts

It wasn't all bad news though. Because while none of the trees on the grounds bore any seasonal fruit, a few of them did bear nuts.  And with the coming of cooler weather, those nuts were ripe for the harvesting, many of them beginning to drop off the trees. So those not up to raking could grab a basket and go out to do their best impression of a squirrel, gathering nuts to store away for later. The results would both be tasty and a welcome addition to the school's food supply.

Isle

Holding On the Line

Most of the Isle's food supply these days came from the sea. Which, for many of its residents, meant that their days were often spent staring at a line in the water, waiting and hoping for a nibble. This was dull enough at the best of times assuming one wasn't an avid fisherman, but even more so when the fish were being uncooperative. And the latter was definitely the case today, with most of those fishing having not had a bite in hours. Did that prompt complaints? The desire to give up and go take a nap? Pointed critiques of each other's fishing technique? Or were you one of the lucky buggers who actually caught something and you're in the mood to gloat about it to the others to annoy them?

Heck for Leather

If there was one staple of Isle fashion aside form its general raggedness, it was the inclusion of leather. And why not? After all, leather was sturdy, hard wearing, and a must for pirates and punks alike. It made one look cool and tough and totally not like they had escaped from the set of a made for TV movie aimed at teens and tweens. But with access only to what was left in the lockers, it was in somewhat limited supply. There was, however, a solution to this; making their own. The recent killing of party-crashing alligator had provided not only meat but a tough, scaly hide ripe for leather making. With a bit of help from Yen Sid's chemistry supplies and some good old fashioned elbow grease of course. 

Or if leather wasn't one's style, there was also the bones and teeth. After all, nothing said 'heck yeah, I'm a villain' quite like a few skeletal accessories. And they would also make for some very handy tools if one knew how to shape them. So many possibilities, so few alligator bits...

"That's true! And then I'll hold onto you both forever so you can't vanish again!" Sorry, Axel, she was going to have the three beds in the room argument again.
rexien: (hopeful)
From: [personal profile] rexien
He nodded firmly. "I'll hold on too. Then you won't be able to either."
nobodys_puppet: (Hooded Startlement)
From: [personal profile] nobodys_puppet
She nodded. "From now on, the three of us will always be together," she said firmly, then brightened. "Oh! We saw it coming back from that other place, but Roxas... this world has a beach!"
rexien: (happy bean)
From: [personal profile] rexien
The smile he turned toward her was positively brilliant. "We can finally go!"
nobodys_puppet: (Hooded face front)
From: [personal profile] nobodys_puppet
She nodded. "We just... have to make sure Axel doesn't try to make us change clothes to go this time..." She shuddered. She never wanted to wear that... bathing suit... thing again.
rexien: (he did not get it memorized)
From: [personal profile] rexien
"Why would we need to change clothes to go to the beach?" He tried to remember if that was a thing from when him and his friends had been planning to go to the beach in the fake Twilight Town, but he didn't think so...

"I don't know, but he said I had to. It was horrible... Things kept touching my arms and the wind kept trying to take away my hat!" She pulled her hood protectively over her face.
rexien: (a good laugh)
From: [personal profile] rexien
He couldn't help but laugh a little. He couldn't picture Xion without her coat on at all. He'd never seen her without it. A sudden thought struck him. "Did Axel wear different clothes too?
nobodys_puppet: (New kid in the Hood)
From: [personal profile] nobodys_puppet
She nodded. "He does! All the time!" And she didn't like it. She wanted him to just pick one different outfit and stick to it. She didn't like all this change.
rexien: (chuckle)
From: [personal profile] rexien
"That's so weird. Why? I had a different outfit for a while, in Twilight Town, but that wasn't real so it doesn't count. What's wrong with our coats?" Weren't their coats also supposed to protect them? Why would Axel take his off? He didn't get it.
rexien: (he did not get it memorized)
From: [personal profile] rexien
"Oh right. Well, for a while I was stuck in a digital version of Twilight Town. You remember those kids we used to always see running around? I was friends with them, or, I thought I was friends with them? I'm not really sure. I couldn't remember the Organization or Axel or anything for a while. It was... Kinda nice, even though weird stuff kept happening." He frowned at the grass.

"I thought we were all hanging out on summer vacation, but it doesn't really make any sense. The more I try and remember, the fuzzier everything is. I guess it makes sense, since I was only there for about a week, everything I thought I remembered before that was even less real, so I guess that's why it doesn't stick." He shrugged. "Anyway, it doesn't really matter. I don't think it even exists anymore. I would like to see them again though..."

That.... horrified her and she cringed back, thinking about it.
rexien: (he do a think)
From: [personal profile] rexien
"Yeah..." He looked back towards the school. He was smiling, even though he didn't feel happy. A smile because of an uncomfortable feeling... Another thing he was going to have to Axel about.

From: [personal profile] nobodys_puppet
"What are we going to do, Roxas?" She whispered. She didn't want anyone messing with their memories anymore. But then... when had what she wanted ever mattered?
rexien: (determined)
From: [personal profile] rexien
"We just have to stay together. Me, you, and Axel. This time we won't let anything take us away from each other." He wouldn't let anyone touch his friends. He was strong enough to fight for them.
nobodys_puppet: (Hooded face front)
From: [personal profile] nobodys_puppet
She nodded, clinging to his sleeve. "And this time I'll be the one to help and protect you. And I'll... I'll try not to run away any more."
rexien: (hopeful)
From: [personal profile] rexien
"I'm not going anywhere," he agreed firmly.

They had just about reached the door at the side of the school at this point, and he pointed towards it. "Do you know where we're going?"
nobodys_puppet: (New kid in the Hood)
From: [personal profile] nobodys_puppet
"Um.... to try to find Axel?" In other words... not a clue. Cause if she knew then the thread would end.

rexien: (huh?)
From: [personal profile] rexien
Which would be sad. "Yes but... Where to look?" He frowned, at a loss. Inside still seemed a good bet to him, but he didn't know his way around inside.

"I thought maybe he might be out here napping in the sun or something... but I guess not...."

rexien: (he do a think)
From: [personal profile] rexien
At least Axel hadn't changed, he'd always been napping whenever he had free time when they were in the Organization. It was reassuring. A thought had struck him though. "Wait, are there missions or anything here? Aside from 'raking'. What do we do?"

She shook her head. "Diatu had classes and missions, the Train had missions but only sometimes, but nothing here yet... I don't know what they want from us..."
