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. ]

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.

[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?
