[Roxas tried the treat so early as a Nobody, with no real awareness, that he probably couldn't say if he liked it right away or not. It was just something Axel gave him as a treat at the time. Now? He would never say no to it.

Affection... Roxas looked at Xemnas with a curious expression. What would be his own preferred means? The more his mind pondered about it, the more he figured he too would likely use touch to show he cared. It seemed far easier than words.]

I think you're right. [If the person in question liked being touched. Which this small blond does. He'd soak up all the affection shown to him and bask in it. Start returning it when he felt more confident about what he could do.

One step at a time. There was no real rush on what they had going now.

Frozen treat in hand, Roxas was enjoying their afternoon. Determined to one day to be the one to be able to treat Xemnas to things. If he got to go hunt Heartless again, it would be quick, and a lot more fun than working at the bistro. Taking what he could get for some extra earnings would be the way to go. At least for the foreseeable future. He took a bite as he hummed softly.]

It's been good. I got signed up for school. [There's a pause as he took another bite.] Sometimes, though, I want to ask if I can go train. Not for being a master. Just to do something. It's weird, but I get something like an itch, and I just want to fight.

[The battle against the Heartless earlier had done a good job scratching that itch for the time being.]

But I'm supposed to be a normal kid. We stopped the war, so I'm supposed to just enjoy the peace.
