[ Upon finding the wayfinder, it takes Xion a moment to really take it in. She picks it up and carefully holds it in her hands, eyes closed at the memories she has- no, that Sora had- of seashell charms. Of her collecting shells, wishing she could make one herself... When she reads the note she's surprised but happy, and it's not long before she finds herself headed over to where she's been told Ven is staying and knocking on his door. ]
[Ventus is staying at Snow White's place, but everyone's out doing one thing or another. Terra and Aqua are on some kind of excursion--'date', his mind likes to supply-- and Snow White and Evie are probably at the bakery.
Um, hi! [ Now that Ven's actually answered the door Xion looks a little unsure of exactly how to begin, so instead she takes out the seashell wayfinder carefully and holds it out. ]
Ven... did you really make this? For me? [ She jumps right into it, then. ]
Oh, you did get it! [Ventus sounds pleased with himself.] Yeah, I made it for you. I...kinda remember you liked seashells from when we were in Sora's heart together, so I thought you might like it.
You remembered? [ Xion looks surprised at first- it's a little strange being on the other end for once, where someone remembers something about her that she doesn't know about- but the surprise quickly turns to a bright smile. ]
Yes! I-I really love seashells. [ A little light blinks around her head, as if to prove it. ]
I... I used to collect them. For Roxas. I had... a memory... [ by which she's sure Ven will know she means "Sora's memory," ] ...of a seashell charm. But I didn't know how to make one.
[ She looks back down at the charm then back up to Ven. ]
[ Xion does take notice of the fireflies, eyes following them for a second as they fly around. She's still getting used to the way emotions manifest here, but so far she's noticed so many nice ones around some people, Ven included. ]
I do! [ She insists again, hand clutching it tighter. At the offer, she looks surprised once more, albeit a little excited. ]
Ah, yeah- Namine's really good at drawing. It makes sense she'd be good at that kind of thing, too. You'd... really teach me?
Thank you, Ven. [ There's something about someone remembering anything about her, let alone something so specific about her that's just... well, it's nice, to say the least, and so is the offer. ]
I'll have to find a lot of seashells, in case I mess up my first try. [ This was IMPORTANT PLANNING for the making of charms, okay. ]
So I hope we can see some really amazing places. Thanks, Ven. And... [ She holds up the seashell charm carefully, as if afraid she might break it. ]
...Thanks for this, again. Really. Having someone remember something that I like, um... It really means a lot. [ For a moment, there's a light above her head- shimmering, like the light reflecting off of the ocean. ]
NOT HERE
So, one day, she'll find something on her bed.
A wayward finder made out of seashells. It's not the best made, but he did his best!! Next to it is a note:]
Something for you, Xion. Hope you like this.
- Ven.
!!!
Um, Ven? Are you around...?

Opening the door, he looks at Xion in surprise.]
Hey, Xion.

Just...don't mind the literal fireflies that seems to appear out of nowhere around him.]
You're welcome! I'm glad you like it.
[He wasn't sure if she would, after all.]
And if you wanna learn how to make one, I can teach you. Namine's helped me out a lot when I first started, so you can ask her for help, too.
no subject
I do! [ She insists again, hand clutching it tighter. At the offer, she looks surprised once more, albeit a little excited. ]
Ah, yeah- Namine's really good at drawing. It makes sense she'd be good at that kind of thing, too. You'd... really teach me?

[He nods.]
I'd be happy to, Xion.

no subject
Just take your time with it, and let me know whenever you want to start. If you need help finding seashells, I don't mind helping with that either.
no subject
Actually, yeah- where did you get them from? Is there a beach here?
no subject
Port Niras. Do you want me to show you where it is?
no subject
[ It was a big place, okay. ]
no subject
[Yeah, he gets that.]
no subject
I used to have to visit all kinds of worlds before, but usually it was for one specific thing at a time.
no subject
[He looks a little surprised.]
How about we explore this world together then? Whenever you have time, that is.
no subject
You wouldn't mind? I mean, you haven't already seen everything there is to see?
no subject
[Smile smile.]
no subject
You're right. And I guess then you'd just know the best spots to show.

Let's make some new memories together, okay?
