OOC: Man, that's just like that water slide where only your body goes down freely, and if you even make a wrong movement, you might fall *shudder*. By the way, in the Court thread, I'm really thinking of Larxene facing Axel some time after her trial is over >D.

I'm laughing right now cause of the beinning of this post xD.

"You're a ******..." was all Larxene whispered at him for his explanation, as truthful and stupid as it was, finding a bit of her old spark returning now that everything was slowy becoming clear. Though not in a good way...how could he ever think she wanted Marluxia's company, or even Marluxia at all...over him? What ever gave him the misunderstanding that she answered to his call for that reason? Didn't he see what she had been doing before Marluxia had popped in the door? She didn't ask someone to lay with her just for the hell of it....and all this, all that she suffered in the long run, was because of this? The hurt, the pain....the struggle that she was now facing...for that? Amongst the aches and numbness she had felt, she couldn't help but feel some anger towards him, making her eyes glaze with tears once more from all the events leading to one simple conclusion that he took. And she came out with, "...idiot...he knew I was here...and he wouldn't leave either way. I thought that if he knew...I was fine, and that I needed to rest...he would go away...why else...will I ever answer his call...when I had you there?..."

The strain on her chords was a bit too much then, and she let out a couple of coughs, hitting them into her second pillow. She didn't care as a few more liquid drops came sliding down her cheeks, but her head shook gently, gazing at him with a forlorn expression at what he made her go through, especially at the very last sentence he had said. That's great then, he won't die... she had thought wryly and bitterly to herself, torn and wrecked now because she wanted so badly to tell him, her stomach clenching in anxiety, yet the words remained and didn't feel like leaving her throat as a hold was chaining them there, for her protection, and from its fear. Letting out a shaky breath from all the revelations she had listened ever since he stepped in here, she shifted her eyes somewhere else, not able to look at him when he was obviously waiting for a answer. His touch wasn't helping as well...the more he kept caressing her, leaving the prints of his fingertips in a sweet remembrance in her face now when he oh so wonderfully traced her skin...the more her focus was getting lost in a daze, longing for the feel of his body and his own hot skin...for his lips, for his everything. Because if he was only doing a easy task of slightly pulling strands of her hair behind her ear, that made her gauge the reaction of a pleasant shiver up and down her spine, she could only imagine the rest. For that alone, and her not spoken love for him, she tried to say the words back, forcing herself strongly to do so, for his and her own sake, "...I..I..lo..."

And once more, it died on her lips, and dejected, her vision turned to the ceiling, cursing at herself. She couldn't do it, not now...she couldn't. After all this, her body and her soul weren't ready to trust what was basically her life to someone else...as it was fragile, and it could break...again. Really crying this time for the lack of admittance, and the wait of Axels' reaction that made her feel her insides being swallowed whole. She wished she could ask for time...all she needed was time to heal her open wounds. They were still stinging, they were still burning, they were still pounding, and they were still there...amidst all the good feelings that were mixing due to the redhead's hope that he had given...and the fact that he had confessed his real feelings to her. Maybe then, she might find the courage to say them...yet, Larxene hoped that Axel could hear her through the silence, to somehow, hear her feelings for him just by her actions and eyes than simple words. He was her most precious person...

And she didn't want to lose him cause of this.

Axel didn't waste any time, though he didn't want to look at Shigiku when her hold did not loosen, even though it was made clear she was to go with Naminé. Seeing the blonde girl come up cautiously with Roxas by her side protectively, he dismissed the grip on Shigiku's hand loosely as he gave a step towards them, holding her out for Naminé to take care of. Once the little girl was in her grasp, he gave a nod to Roxas, gesturing to the held portal by Zexion with his head, who was waiting on the other side. "Better get going, for some reason....the ship is now relaxed, and the waves aren't thrashing that much." While that would be good news, for Axel, it wasn't. He truthfully went on the belief that there's always a calm before the storm, and right now...it was silent, too silent...something he wasn't liking at all, and it made him concerned. Gazing down at Shigiku, however, he put a hand on top of her head softly, giving her a smile. "Don't worry about me, I'll come soon enough. Believe me. Naminé will protect you for just a while..."

Roxas waited until Axel took his innocent ruffle of the girl's head away, not wanting to move until he was finished for the sake of the bonding. He also was still curious to know why Axel was planning to stay behind, though he trusted in him that he knew what he was doing, and if he says he will come back, especially to the child, then he will. Perhaps, he had just something to do. Connecting his blue eyes with his green as in silent agreement, he began to carefully guide Naminé with Shigiku to the black passageway waiting for them, taking advantage of the fact that the ship was stable, despite Axel's foreboding words. Thankfully, it didn't take long to reach it, and he slowly let go of Naminé as he halfway stepped into the portal, watching her go in. Giving a final glance at Axel, serious and threateningly, he commanded instead of asking, "You better come back."

Axel just rolled his eyes, though he gave a nod, watching the blond send him a warning glare, before disappearing into the portal after his girlfriend. His glowing green orbs lingering on the tainted ebony of the otherwise white washed wall, he had felt he'd forgotten something, and then blinked in realization when Larxene was still next to him. Remaining quiet for a few seconds, as the reminder of what she did still burned in his cheek as the cut stung, daringly, he pushed her slightly forward in her back, not hard, but he knew that will probably get her pissed. She was always annoyingly PMSing that way. Giving her a dark, sardonic smirk at her, his eyes narrowing amusedly, he simply asked innocently, "Aren't you going?"

Shigiku wasn't here anymore.

OOC: You're welcomed back anytime, remember? xP No, nobody took your characters, so the genies are still open (ICSP took control of Jafar for a few seconds to get the plot moving), and so is Leon (cause I never took your name off from any of them), though I don't know where you left him of at. If you want recaps from three sources though to see where everything is going -

They just portalled to KMart now though, as I think you've seen. This is where you left of, kind of. And for KMart happenings:

I should so put this in the front page *-*.

OOC: Is close to night time.

"At eight," Xemnas answered to the blond young man, quite surprised that he popped out at the right time, before he would think of Saïx's proposal. He wasn't contemplating of replacing anybody, however, except for the show, because it couldn't go on without the Marluxia and Roxas battle that started it, which Saïx would've taken over. Though he didn't know what the Luna Diviner was to do to make it "flashy". "It seems we don't have to worry any longer of your whereabouts, I suppose. Though now I need to wait for Axel and Larxene to speak to them, while I will order Marluxia to appear through the speakers..."

Larxene nodded, still unsure, but she was at least willing to give it a try for the sake of perhaps succeeding to taking it off. She didn't know how long she could live on with this outfit, especially on dealing with how to take a shower and it being her daily clothes forever. Sighing to herself, she stepped up to Axel slowly and with no hesitation, slipping her arms around his neck, her hands trailing over his shoulder as if taking in the surface of his body, before they made their place in the back of his head, the soft tendrils of his spiky red hair grazing her fingers. Pressing against him tightly and putting her head on his chest tiredly, summoning a portal from beneath them, the darkness swallowed them whole as they passed through the Corridor Of Darkness, only to quickly materialize in the caverns of...KMart. Her eyes shifted around the place silently without changing her position, wondering if she should call the genie like she did the other one, or....look for him. Lifting her head, not breaking from the embrace, she asked, "Should I call to him? Because I don't know if he would come the same way the red genie did, this one doesn't belong to us..."

OOC: Great, that probably means I'm skinny enough to fly over o.O. There should be seat belts in that thing.

Larxene almost flinched in surprise when he felt his soft touch on her hair, not really predicting he would go ahead and do so, and how he was softly running his fingers through it. Admittingly, it felt good and nice, and it made her lean into it, because she liked it, and she wanted more of it, yet she couldn't give herself that pleasure. She enjoyed it for what it was though, and it made her stop the tears from brimming even more as the few last ones fell when she closed her eyes, his words running through her head. Sorry...he had said, and that he never meant to hurt her. The more he spoke, the more the emptiness began to fill again, and the light of hope consuming her was illuminating even greater...covering the pain, but it still remained there. Yet, Larxene still didn't know what to decide or what move to make, because the more she wanted to admit her love, it wasn't willing to get out....the doubt and distrust was too much, and she didn't want anyone else to stomp on it after she believed they will never do so. Axel said this now...but what about in the future? It was hard...too hard. His voice did sound resentful, but she wanted to hear more from him...if what Zexion said was true. He made it difficult to concentrate, though...with his head so close, and his face...she could feel it. The slight weight on the bed, the rustle, and his hot breath of a breeze barely grazing her. God...how she desired his warmth again. It was almost as if he was asking to kiss him, but instead, her vocals croaked out weakly, "Why'd you leave...?"

Zexion explaining wasn't going to do it, and it was there she opened back her eyes, needing to study him as he said it. She had never loved someone this much...and it confused her, because as Nobodies, the feeling should be as nonexistant as them, despite the Cloaked Schemer's explanation. Everything that she had went through though, and how one word from him could hurt her, showed how much she meant to him, and how he was the only one who could reduce her to this state of being...the sadistic and cruel Savage Nymph in love with someone, taming her, even. Never did she expect to get this far the moment she stepped in the Organization and he made fun of her hair in their first meeting. But here she was...only that she couldn't spell it out for him.

OOC: It's fine to take DestinyForce's bullet points, it slipped my mind since I do better writing things, and since I've never played the Ace Attorney games....

Though really, Naminé shouldn't get angry, as that's her personality in the game and in Castle Oblivion (into which Larxene died there), and how she changed is fully on you, not canon.

Janexna sat still, knowing that Xelax was taking care of the cross-examination, took out a bag of Skittles, and opened it to only begin eating it right away. Some of the points Larxene said could not be refuted or not proven, no matter what she said. She did hit Naminé what the costs, it was hard to fly over that when it was apparent. And in her first time battling, Sora, she had kicked him. The best and only real charge Larxene has to have was child abuse, and considering one had a weapon and had the strenght to defend himself, packed that she only hit a girl once, it was minor. Still, she wondered what would become of this.

Larxene just concentratred now when the expected barrage of questiosn came at her, though the attorney was to the point and kept it short and simple, thankfully for her sanity. She snorted at the first one, answering darkly, "Yes." This would probably help her in the trial, but really, just the fact that she had so minimal things to do made her more like a sidekick. That title didn't sit well with her. But maybe that's what she always was...

Larxene raised a silky eyebrow, wondering where this was going. "Obviously. He wouldn't have been heading to Castle Oblivion otherwise."

Larxene shook her head casually. "No, as far as I know, since it was mostly Marluxia who spoke to her. She couldn't in the way she was anyway. Always looking down, timid, quiet...she wasn't the type to argue over it until it got to be her way. Might've been because she wanted Sora to come, or something else, I can't get into her mind."

"I can't really tell since I was unfortunately in Axel's company in another room. But yes, she was alone sometimes when it called for it, can't say specifically when. As for the last question...no." She kind of smirked at him sarcastically. "If you count her constant drawing, then yes."

She sighed. "No. There was no reason to." At the next question, though, she chose to ignore it, seeing as he just figured out the conclusion himself from the look of his face. Only beginning, and she was already feeling jaded of all this. That wasn't the best part though! The prosecutor still had to question her. Joy. She knew that one was to be worse.

Larxene tilted her head, recalling back over the year. "Depends on which meeting you're talking about." She didn't bother to respond to the next thing that he said about the doll, as he was mostly talking to himself.

".....no, you could never know what he's thinking, should've taken that into account, though he never really gave a damn about anyone, but himself. Except Roxas, soon enough..." Larxene began to say slowly and bitterly, though rather went to give Xelax a stare at the question that followed, not wanting to dwelll on the thought. "Do I need to repeat the consequences after? Or are you looking for something else in particular?"

"Yeah," was her simple answer, because that's what it was...'yeah'.

"Yes, Naminé was already free, and unless you're talking on full control of his memories, considering the way he was acting and how deep it affected him, that would be a yes too," Larxene replied lightly, leaning her head on sideways in her hand, as she listened to his other inquiry. "Yeah, if not evil, cruel. And I wasn't really thinking much of anything by that point, everything was gone, I didn't care what Sora or Naminé thought of me, not that I cared in the first place. Nothing mattered, so I revealed the whole plot, knowing that there was no more reason to hide or sugar coat it. It all went to hell."

She didn't understand what he was searching on these answers.

Larxene took a pause there to think over her thoughts on that matter, before answering, "No, I didn't intend to die, I always thought I could take him on actually. Something else unfortunate happened."

Janexna was in thought on the gaze Xelax gave, wondering what he was trying to send over to her in the questioning of Larxene. She had forced herself out of it in time, getting to the ending, and she had managed to pick up some of the replies as well. However, this was Xelax's questioning, and it was him Larxene was answering to.

OOC: I truly cannot wait for Axel's case, considering he will never try to murder Roxas, and you'll see why. Oi oi :D.

Janexna just gave the nod to Larxene to follow Xelax's permission as well, sitting in her seat, while eyeing everything that was happening around here. This whole court room was out of whack. Nobody was allowed to stand while there was a session, how the hell was everything suppose to go on all with all these distractions and noises? Yet, the only one who mattered on hearing this was the judge, as long as that took its course, it was fine.

Larxene was in a dazed daydream, looking or listening at nothing in particular except the music, yet at the same time it trailed off away as it finished. It was then Xelax's voice cut through, and she had snapped back to the reality of the court she was in. So this was it now? She was going to try and put in order the events on Castle Oblivion, but instead she almost dozed off, so now she had to think on how to specifically recall them, or even if anything she said was worth it. Might as well just wing it, she didn't want to prolong her trial any longer, so she had to at least say something to move it forward, even if she didn't know where to start. "All things really began the moment it was known that Naminé had summoned Sora into the steps of Castle Oblivion, and from there, it was a hatched up plan that I got involved in once Marluxia shared it with me. It was to overthrow the Organization, take over, whatever you fee like calling it, and since the keyblade wielder oh so conveniently came into our territory, he became the main component. It was obvious that the two of us won't be able to...fully...," she trailed off there, cringing, not exactly wanting to admit openly the real fact of the matter. She was way too prideful for that, but why was the plan conjured for? "Take Xemnas on, he was too powerful. In the end, Naminé was to replace his memories with new ones once we found out how Sora discovered Castle Oblivion, and what the girl was capable of. It appeared she wanted her own hero, something I found laughable, and once the order was given, she didn't protest much...not that she could. Fragile thing she was...or is. There were times she wasn't under surveillance, if only for a few minutes, not that it mattered, her face was always on the damn sketch pad. She was never to be killed, though, or harmed, because she was beneficial in the connection she had with Sora himself, to us, and the studies of memories that were in action. I taunted her on wanting Sora's company, to meet him, to save her, yet everything went underway soon nonetheless. I wasn't given much orders from Marluxia, except to watch Sora's progress on the crystal ball with the a**hol-I mean, Axel. I mostly acted on my own volition."

Larxene took a break there, lowering down the next song that was playing, as her lips turning deeper into a frown as the ending crept closer. "Anyway, the only time I ever took action was when it was my turn to toy around with Sora a little, I found him to be amusing really, all over this girl and so passionate about it, hilarious, in my opinion. Yet, I didn't have much to do there, kicked him, had a battle, the time when the lucky charm was switched, teased him a bit for it. Then of course, I mostly spent it talking to Axel, Vexen, and then came Repliku, who was really just a plain doll, empty, governed by the thoughts and memories Naminé placed on him, and who broke and trampled on his 'heart' later on. That, and it was one of Vexen's creation. Doomed for some failure somehow. It was then later on, that we had included...Axel, unto the team so to speak, yet, it was the greatest mistake. I still remembered the anger I felt when I decided to visit and see how Naminé was doing, only to..whoop! Not find her there. Along with the bast-idiot that let her go. Nothing was of importance after that, the plan was obviously screwed, to the point where it didn't matter that I reveal the scheme and what Naminé was doing all along to Sora in his stay, which was our second meeting and our last. I was truthfully in a bad mood, everything was ruined, and we were so close..." she stopped herself from mentioning any personal thoughts on the situation, not wanting to go on about her own range of 'emotions''...or what felt like them. "Either way, I get more violent when I'm pissed off royally, I lashed out on Sora, kicked him again as he went and dared to come at me when I was obviously spilling out the truth that he couldn't apparently take, and for the first time, landed a physical hit on Naminé. Honestly, I wasn't intending to die....though I guessed that fate wouldn't have it otherwise if I did ever manage to escape, I think. Most of it is what you've seen, I'm guessing, so to not waste any more of my breath, if you want information, feel free to cross-examine."

And that was it. Larxene didn't know what would happen after that then, though her fury came back as she reminded her own self of the events that occured in that God forsaken castle. Giving a sharp , dark glare at Axel, who was over at the witness booth, her eyes shifted to Marluxia, who was blank as always, and so was Xemnas.

OOC:....so you can fall off? T-T

Larxene had somehow managed to relax her nerves after the thought of the meaningless visit, her ragged breathing still present, as so were the tears lining the edges of her eyes, but she had stayed as silent as the very air itself. Her fist just kept holding on the pillow tighter, while her body remained unmoving, dismissing on figuring out how he ever got in her room, when she had put added security. What did he want? Really. It was apparent to her he wasn't leaving, and he couldn't figure that him being here was drowning her in a affliction that was eating her this moment up? Axel didn't say anything to her outspoken word, and they were both back in the quiet serenity. It was more soothing for her this way...because he was here, but she could pretend he wasn't.

As the moonlight gleamed on the sheets and past them, the silver rays reaching her, she basked in the silence as it may, the rattling sounds not ceasing, yet her breath got caught once more as he spoke her name, about to say something, only to discard it, lapping into the noiseless room again. He was here to say something...what did he want? What? Creasing her shaky eyes and eyebrows, she just layed, only to hear him talk after a while, the words thick with regret, guilt, and complete sadness. This gave her a sardonic, empty smile, and she almost wanted to chuckle bitterly. Forgive him? The tone was enough to tempt her, or at least imagine in her ideal dream, that she wrapped him in his arms closely, whispering that she accepted his forgiveness constantly, and that all will be well. Yet. Ideal. Larxene didn't know what to think on that, truly. Nonetheless, it seemed he didn't stop there, and the rest of his speech made her want to laugh. Utterly laugh at him. Idiot. Fool. Dumba**. If he was just a toy, would she be where she was right now? Would she be so broken? Didn't he see? But it was that last thing he had said that made her very soul ardent, her body going rigid in shock, and what finally caused the tears to spill across her cheeks, not believing he was doing this...not believing he was admitting this. Not believing it was even happening. This must be a lie...some type of trick...he was messing with her...

It startled her when the covers, the only shield, were taken off her head to reveal her face, and he gazed straight into her eyes, burning through her very skin, and he kept going...never stopping. She shivered at his touch, almost recoiling in the process as she held back a sob again, water pouring, as he gave his love, his everything, and he said it all, the pure truth...what he said wasn't untrue, there's no way something with that much passion in his green orbs and voice can be deceiving. How could she say nothing to that? And Larxene did....she did want to tell him the feelings that were locked away deep inside the moment he abandoned her with Marluxia, as he gave her up, but they wouldn't come, they wouldn't reach her lips, and all she could do was cry without her own consent, cry for this night. She was scared. So scared to present her love with the trust that he'll take care of it, only to throw it away. So she wanted to return it, wanted him to know...yet....shutting her eyes to block the fine features of his face, the outlines etched in the darkness of her eyelids as if to haunt her, she gave a shaky sigh. Licking her lips, she quivered, aware that after those words, there's no possible way she would be soundless any longer. Her voice raspy and hoarse, making her throat sting as it barely came back, "..I...I..." Her face retreated back to dig into her pillow, not sure whether to give a chance after all her thoughts of it not making a difference, of it not being the same, uncertain to take the offer that he had given meaningfully, hesitant to do anything...she was lost. Nothing good ever came out from giving her heart, and now, the lack of one. "...D-don't hurt me again..."

You left....

OOC: Does Tularim get Roxas though as he asked?

OOC: It is fine, just fine xP. I need to catch up with my PMs, and what perfect time to do so when I have nothing to do for now anymore, especially on the Court thread?

"Did...did you call for me, Cloud?' Aerith questioned as a start, seeing as they were all quiet, though her voice was low and barely able to be heard, because she had no idea what this was about, and for some reason, was nervous to know. Tifa wasn't lying when she said it appeared serious, even very deep from the look of his eyes, and stealing at glance at the black haired who was standing just as silently as her, they waited for Cloud's verdict or what he needed to say. Though...did he wanted both of them or only her? Aerith didn't want to be here really, because right now, she was hurt from the conclusion she had to take, despite that it was her decision, and she wasn't ready to confront him because her tears were closely about to come out if she didn't held them back before. And this...this wasn't making it any better.

Marluxia had just come back to see the current events of the court and to return to his assigned seat, though what he intently spotted was Larxene stretching, to which he had stared at for the very minute, before continuing his way as the attorney stopped her. That was definitely something unexpected to be greeted with, yet it wasn't like he wasn't familiar with her behavior as...suggestive as it was. Larxene was not bashful and wouldn't hold herself back from doing something just because men were in the room. The girl was too overconfident on that regard. Getting back into the Organization booth that was set up for them, he saw Roxas talking with Axel, not a rare sight to see, and passing by the fire wielder without much thought on the way to his seat, he sent him a one second dark glance, having the same sentiments as Larxene on the man. He couldn't blame the female, it was tempting to extract some sort of vengeance, yet he had a hold of himself. They had, really, confronted each other for it before.

Sitting back down, he simply turned to watch as Larxene now made the stand, checking her surroundings as she was calmly listening to the music.

Janexna would've asked Larxene to testify already, but Pika_Power, was still against Roxas and Axel interacting, and she wasn't positive whether to give Larxene the go just yet as she thought the problem with the two best friends had to be given to the judge, who was suppose to hear the testimony. The distraction will keep away from it, and two things couldn't be listened at once, at least she thought so. Looking over at Xelax, she asked, "Should we proceed and ignore Mr. Power's request, or wait for the judge to make his decision on Axel and Roxas talking?"

Larxene just rolled her eyes at his comments, knowing that they will see soon what would go on, though she nodded at the suggestion. Of course they were going to portal, the faster the better, though they couldn't do so here, obviously. Grabbing hold of his hand, she led him quickly out without a word as they both began to walk, more so using a bit of her speed. It was enough so Axel could keep up with her, and as they went along the path to the front door, she spotted the waiter, passing him in a wind as she said, "Keep the tip." Thankfully, it wasn't long when she slowed down, reaching the entrance to get out. Letting go of her hold on the redhead, she proceeded to push open the door and leave the restaurant, full to the brim and ready to go.

As she tried to find a good spot where she was positive no one could see them, the evening breeze blowing her bedsheet and hair in a cool touch, it was then she started to wonder if the Genie would do the favor of taking off her clothes in the first place. After all, they worked for WalMart, and she was sure that the rivalry reach his ears and been told what not to do. Sighing, her body turned around to face Axel's, a bit unsure a sher lips frowned and her eyebrows creased, "Do you think the Genie will even release me of the harem outfit? We're practically the enemy, so to speak."

Janexna had almost fallen with her chair as it was only balancing on its two hind legs, closely falling asleep, as she heard the judge speak , startled. Then she snapped her eyes open. Placing the chair back properly, and fixing a few things on her clothing, feeling a bit tired (which happened when you're close to resting), Janexna tried to gear her brain again as it nearly shut off for the while. She wasn't sure what would come out of this, after all, she was only a partner, and was pretty much a attorney in training, but hell, she had decided long ago Larxene was going to be taken care of by her. Kind of. Along with Axel, which by the prove she had, would be free of all charges in one swift blow of the wind. Glancing at the blonde, she motioned with her hand to the seat waiting for her, though she didn't have to, as the Nymph was already standing up and stretching her numb muscles....stretching in a very evocative manner, and whether she was doing it on purpose or not, she had to put Larxene's arms down to stop her from showing off her chest blatantly as her back arched, as well as emphasizing other assets of her body. It was not the fact of the stretch, but that it was more open than she would usually find anyone else doing so, and considering the full male audience...

Noticing she was giving her a less than pleased hazardous glare, she simply fumbled out, "Um, this a court room, full of males and all...and well...I just didn't think, ugh, just forget it. Sorry about that. Let's get this over with, shall we?"

Larxene simply raised another eyebrow at her defense attorney, getting fully amused by the fact that the girl's nerves were skyrocketing to whatever little thing she might do wrong, so much, that it made her grin. In fact, maybe she'll do a few actions intentionally to freak her out more, just to play with her a little. Still, it wasn't like stretching the way she did was such a incentive, considering some people did so that way when they woke up in the morning, it wasn't her fault that the shape it took was somehow provocative. And as always, she didn't care. She basically lived with twelve of these men present, so the fact that she had to get used to being the only female for awhile, made her take this as if she was in the privacy of her own room. She wasn't one to be shy. If they ever did peek where they shouldn't have, then their gifted groins were going to be castrated and thrown to the crocodiles for extra lunch- or maybe to Hades's adorable three headed dog. Who knows? Slapping Janexna's hands away in a irritated manner, with a little added static that made her squeak and cradle her hand, she walked to the stand in quick steps, passing through the opening, and casually taking her seat, the iPod on hand. Finally, now all she had to do is wait to see if this was shorter than how long the judge took to decide whether or not to sit here.

Her eyes blankly look around the whole room in front of her, the view vastly different, everyone in sight from where she was, tables, chairs, the Organization members in their whole, prosecution and defendants, the "hero section", and some gazing at her entirely, as if there was nothing more interesting. If she was the type of person to be anxious, or be fazed easily, Larxene would have found it intimidating. But all she did was lay back comfortably, cross her legs gracefully and fluently, and place her hands on her lap, waiting for what would happen next in this ever so interesting trial like a well-mannered lady, a song blaring in her ears. Larxene could see Mr. Power's voice cut through about Roxas and Axel interacting, and she really did not find anything wrong with it, despite the hatred she felt for the damn pyromaniac.

The good news was, her anger was slowly, so slowly diminishing. The bad news being that it was because she was beginning to get bored, and tired, waiting and sitting on the table until the judge gave a say on whether she could make the stand or not, and in that case, was getting irritated for a complete different reason. She even begun to wonder about this iPod, that while she recognized it was a music player, she had to find a way to work it, though it was easy enough, since she hadn't really seen it. It wasn't like it was prominent on their world. Music players, sure, a brand like iPod? This was the first time she heard of it, really. Frowning, listening to another choice song as she ignored Janexna's constant examples on how to behave (did she really believe she was taking all this in?), to which she was closely ready to electrocute her for if she didn't shut up soon, her eyes travelled around the room. Searching for anything. It was there she caught Naminé giving a kiss to Roxas straight on the lips, who had shown up apparently, though that wasn't what made her raise her eyebrows. It was the action Naminé took...unlike her, as the move was too bold. Last time she checked, she was a meek, shy, fragile girl, easily breakable little thing to her delight, who will probably blush and be embarassed about kissing somebody, then actually doing it. It was odd...she couldn't really think of Naminé that way or picture her in that act...despite the fact that it was done right before her. It appeared like she got her happily ever after. How disgusting.

Finding that there was nothing else to think on the matter, neither did she care, she was nearly deciding herself to make the stand without permission of the judge. Then again, she did think this whole thing was a waste of her precious time now that she's come back, for whatever while it was. It was a shame she couldn't kick anyone in the gut in the court room, that would've entertained her. More like a certain redhead.

Janexna, having finally gotten that Larxene was tuning her out, sat down lazily in defeat. Now all she could do was only hope, and wait for the verdict if Larxene would testify. She closed her eyes, taking the chance for seconds rest, at least.

OOC: Formal indeed, lol xD.

As for the school girl on crack term, I use that to mostly describe the point of how much is the giggling and happy laughing that is getting out of hand xP. For example, "Larxene in her Data Battle reminds me of a school girl on crack. That, or she must be on a certain high." (I don't know if you've seen her battles, but while she kicks serious a**, she giggles...a lot :3). I have a picture that my best friend bought on Jurassic Falls...you know, the one where they catch your expressions? Usually, I hate boat rides like those, since I always feel like I'm going to fall off when it goes down, so in the picture, you see me holding on to the bars for dear life, head down to the side and all. And I look like I'm biting Andrea's brother's arm xDDD. I left it in Florida, so I'll probably scan it to show you when it gets send by mail. And yes, The Hulk is a roller coaster.

Thanks for the compliment for my smoothness, I just wanted the scenery dark :P.

The jig was up, but it didn't catch her by surprise. It was expected from her actions and what just occurred, but the gripping sensation that made her almost have palpations did not cease, and the more she heard his footsteps get closer, the more it squeezed, to the point where she was even beginning to feel heated. Closing her quivering eyes, she tried to will the pain and sorrow away, though it was useless with him being in here...so close, to remind her of the events from before and how it killed her. Clenching the pillow sheet more on her hand, she continued to ignore him, hoping he'll go away, along with the torment. She still didn't...no, couldn't comprehend how he got in, let alone have her key card...or did he even use one? This was so unexpected that her mind was scattered, and she felt water start to collect under her eyelids from the powerful affect. She can't face him.

However, when he had begun speaking, his words reminded her again of the minsunderstanding discussion with Zexion, but she knew it would not be the same...true or not. So tired and empty, and feeling so broken all this time, that it felt like that didn't matter anymore...so unimportant. Just hearing his voice fazed her greatly despite that, and all he asked of her was to listen. But could she? How...how would he explain what he'd done? Keeping her tears at bay, she didn't reply to him yet...and it kept to be that way for a while, not knowing...what to think, or what to decide. It was all too fast, too unpredictable. He had hurt her....hurt her hard, and he thought he could come in here and tell her to talk it out like adults? Bull. Cradling her body into a crouch like a bear cub to its mother, it sought comfort, which in turn sent her a sharp slash of agony through her bones, making hiss in a breath. She was moving too much...

The room remained silent as nobody spoke, the rough wind crashing and shaking the windows, the only noise penetrating throughout the otherwise high pressured, dark atmosphere. She shook her head slightly to herself, her lips frowning and water just dying to be freed, wondering when the nightmare will end, while hating that it even began, wishing that she could turn back time somehow. Shivering through a small, choked sob, Larxene focused on keeping her will intact to keep control of her tears, as well as her state, and didn't say anything yet to Axel, even as she opened her glazed orbs slowly. Her head wasn't completely under the cover, and she could only hide her face in the pillow she was holding. Another thought hit her right then though...something that she needed to know, after all...why was she taking this so hard? It wouldn't make a difference...wouldn't make a difference at all. Her trust was ruined, and so was her faith on being opened with anyone.

"Why..?"

It was small, meek, weak, and a hoarse croak, but what she had asked in her mind, came spoken outloud into the air. While she would've cursed herself for slipping, after the initial shock of him being here started to pass, it meant nothing....

OOC: For the recap, let me see, the most recent, there was battle between the two managers, Sephiroth and Xemnas. Before that, though Saïx planted the MPC on KMarts's computers, and then now...I'm not exactly sure what is happening with Seifer and the store, except that Riku and Kairi are hooking up. Someone else might explain that better...

Vexen and Angel were at the hospital (Angel got shot by Seifer, and Vexen suffered a accident by a wall falling on him).

There was this whole Marluxia, Larxene, and Axel situation, where the two stores have their own genie, but they mostly appeared just recently, so Jafar was still on the lamp. It came to Marluxia, and he used it to wish for Larxene to have feelings/be attracted/love him (though she really felt those for Axel, and they were getting busy, before Larxene was transported suddenly to Marluxia with a harem outfit on. That's the reason why she is wearing a blue bedsheet since it is revealing, and that the outfit can't be taken off or removed unless some other genie (the blue one) with stronger magic can, which brings us to what Axel and Larxene are heading to), along with Jafar being tied to Xemnas and WalMart. Axel got in the way, and told Larxene the truth, with Marluxia interrupting, only gaining her confusion. So, she took care of figuring it out herself and called on Jafar to tell her what truly happened. From there, let's say, Marluxia will be on her most hated list. When she confronted him, she gave a nice slap with a remaining cut, and a harsh kick to his abdomen that sent him flying to the shelves, making them fall on him with the items. Larxene left to take a fresh air. Axel helped Marluxia up, only because he felt sorry he had through suffer from Larxene's hits. They both left, and our favorite redhead went to ask our favorite sadist out to eat after talking, which brings to where they are now, in Applebee's.

I think that's all the more important plot points...

"Do not fret. They will be taken care of accordingly, now...I've hired somebody to pass flyers for the show this evening, so hopefully, we might get people to come. Though, I haven't seen Roxas for awhile, which is why I asked if you've seen him?" Xemnas questioned, more relaxed, though now he was concerned with Roxas whereabouts. He hasn't seen the boy, and he was needed for the beginning of the upcoming event.

"You'll be more than satisfied with me backing up the worth, I can tell you now. Trust me, that it would be you that will owe me something after that is over," Larxene forewarned, her eyes in a half-lid, heavy eyelashed gaze as she stared at him cryptically, though her mouth was in a playful smile. Joking or not, he will get more than he bargained for. It seemed he asked a challenge, and she will surely bring it to the table with no hesitation, if he could manage to handle it. Surely, he was aware of who he was messing with? Getting that the fifty dollars was solved, not positive he should give so much, she let it go, idly caressing his jaw to his chin softly and gently, letting a finger trace his tempting lips. Giving him a look, she took back her touch, and said lowly, "Are you planning to wasting more time or will you remain sitting down?"

Who will make who moan first, hmm? Fun.

OOC: I can guess either Tifa or none ^o^.

And oh man, I have yet to see Sweeney Todd :yelling:.

Axel got startled when he found the tables turning on him, and all he felt was Rei going under, and he knew by common sense that he should be prepared for whatever she might bring. Yet, he wasn't expecting his thighs to be attacked, and getting a idea in mind as she kept trying to tickle him, he laughed a little, before cracking up fully. Now he just need the right time and for her next action.

"Er...um..." was all the speech Aerith could produce from her mouth at the moment, shocked at the sudden outburst Yuffie gave her in a try to get her head on straight. She blinked, then blinked again, before wanting to say something, but being cut off as she continued. With her eyes wide, she just stared until the girl finished, and standing silent for a moment, she went to giggle good naturedly, touched that Yuffie went out of her way to cheer her up. And in fact, the action made her a bit happy, just to know that someone cared. It didn't change her decision, though, concerning taking herself out, yet...the pool. Aerith wasn't truhfully in the mood for it, as she could just imagine Cloud and Tifa on the water, playing around in more ways than one, but...for the sake of her dear friend. "I...I...I guess I'll go to the pool, just for you, Yuffie. Though I can't promise I'll stay for long..."

If I can't handle it, she ended to herself, giving the ninja a half-hearted smile, in a grateful thank you.

Tifa felt herself was getting weary at Cloud's tone, not because he asked for Aerith, but from the way things are now turning out, and she got...a foreboding feeling for them all. This was serious, she concluded, and without a word, she complied with the favor, and hesitantly began to go ahead to Aerith and Yuffie. She didn't want to face the Ancient at the moment, as guilt was swirling inside her, thinking that she shouldn't have let Cloud hold her hand like that, and she was quite scared at what she might see on the girl's face. Tifa didn't mean what happened, really. Listening to Yuffie shout at Aerith about seeing Cloud's chest and drooling over it as she got closer, which made her snap out of her contemplations, she raised her eyebrows a little. Though, she understood after the brown haired girl's response back. So...she was thinking of skipping the activity too? Feeling worse at that revelation, she swallowed tightly as she reached them. Clearing her throat a little, she put up a grin, sending a look to Yuffie, before gazing at Aerith, ignoring her emerald eyes. "Um, Cloud said he wanted to speak to you..."

She wanted to add that it sounded important, though Tifa didn't want to worry her any longer. Gesturing her head to him, he waited for her to go, and after a moment's reluctance, Aerith began to follow.

"Wait for me here, Yuffie..." Aerith told the girl gently, her expression unsure, not knowing what to expect, and feeling her nerves act up on it. With a nod, she turned her face back around, taking the path to the blond male waiting, and the closer she got, the more she wondered what was it he needed to talk to her about. Still, when she got there, she didn't say anything, and merely stared at his face, Tifa beside her, appearing lost as well. It was kind of awkward...

Axel gave a nod to Reixa, before simply giving a sarcastic wink at Larva, darkness surrounding him as he portalled away, not really having much else to say on the matter, though the future conversation with Reixa was noted into his mind. Maybe he could see her before Larxene, and he was certain she wouldn't be in any way biased with any advice she could give. Hell, this love thing was getting complicated by this point, and who was to think that a Nobody would be in it when it had no heart to get into such a wonderful problem. No heart...he was following the strong and enormous "feelings" he had for Larxene, now more powerful than ever, yet...it was to be questioned if it was possible that it could be real...not that it wasn't, but truly real.

With that thought, he had materialized outside of the hall to the kitchen again, something telling him to check there first instead of going to the Twilight Town clock tower first hand. Stepping up to the opening that led to the kitchen, he poked his head carefully in, making sure not to be spotted with his bright, fire red hair, and he was surprised to see Xaldin and Marluxia in there, while Roxas seemed to have gotten distracted from saying something to Larxene. With a held onging gaze to the girl for a while, he quickly retreated back, knowing that while Xaldin and Marluxia were aware of his coming back alive, and Roxas, Larxene was still clueless. And it had to be kept that way.

Roxas sighed in disappointment, the arrival of two higher Organization members ruining the question that he wanted answered from Larxene. There was no way it would be talked about now with such as Marluxia and Xaldin in here, yet, he really needed to see the blonde female's response on the whole situation. Which wasn't happening. Glancing over the mass bodies around, he slightly noted a glint of red in the doorway, and sharply setting his eyes on it, he saw a tidbit of Axel's face before it disappeared. Looking at the rest carefully, knowing that the topic couldn't be revived, he simply turned around, and took a blue berry muffin from a basket on the counter. He'll get pizza to eat.

Giving Larxene a final lingering look, wanting to tell her of Axel's doubts in some way, he began to walk away, ignoring the presence of the other two in there as he immediately made his way into the hall, seeing Axel there, laying in the wall with his arms crossed, a portal ready. Smirking, he reached him, closely going through the black void, after all, he couldn't be caught just yet. "Where did you go to?"

Axel smiled to himself at that. "I had to take care of a unfinished business." He looked down at the muffin knowingly. "I'll talk it over with you in lunch."

"Care for some double cheese, pepperoni pizza then? My treat."

"Sounds good to me. I need the free fat."

"Thank you Saïx for the input. That's what I wanted to know. Yet, love triangle? They can't even feel love to have one," Xemnas stated in a deep, serious and threatening tone, not liking what he was hearing so far, if at all. Things have truly taken their own way, and now, the fools will begin to believe they actually have hearts, and in the end, will get in the way of the working environment. It was no dobut to him that between such as Axel, Larxene, and Marluxia, PDA wasn't a problem. There was going to be a definite meeting indeed. "I might them the incentive to, after all. We'll leave this mess for them to clean up when they come back, as they shouldn't be lasting this long. They're going to have quite a lashing if that keeps up. Also, the evening seems to be coming...have you seen Roxas?"

Honestly, she never believed that anyone had the "IT" factor, as they called it, but it must exist in some sense, because Axel had proved he had it, there's no denying the magnetic and charming aura that he posessed. That, and he had the flow of sexy down to a T. Maybe that was what made him so...attractive? Opening her eyes, she saw him place the money, and while she was about to get up and drag him out of there finally, to portal quickly to KMart, she was kind of concerned with the $50 dollar bill. That was a big tip to leave...despite the waiter needing to be congratulated on having acquired good looking genes. Still, it bothered her for Axel to waste money like that on taking her out, she was used to buying for herself and being independent. Despite this, there was something much more better she'd rather get to, and lifting herself off of Axel, she made her way to get up, planting her feet on the ground and out of the seat before motioning for the redhead to do the same, somewhat getting excited at the future endeavor that was awaiting. Though thinking back on his words, she smirked confidently, staring at him as if he truly believed he might get there, "Bang? Unless you're some kind of God in the physical department, you won't get that far with me. I do have my dignity."

She raised her eyebrow at him for that, though her eyes shifted over to the black little pad. "You sure about that 50?"
