So Mayfield, how do all of you feel about Christmas carolers?

[Filtered to Roxas]

Get your blond butt over here. Bring a friend or something. We're gonna have fun tonight.

Rock star, come over okay? I've got a surprise for you.

Oh, you'd better be kiddin'!

[... Someone must have something against carollers, geez.]

[phone]

[fineinthefire]

Serious as a heart attack buddy.

[You are so on the list~]

[phone]

[noluckduck]

I ain't your buddy, bro, but you wanna know how I feel?

I have fuckin' had enough of Christmas carols for one or two lifetimes.

[phone]

[fineinthefire]

No, of course not. Gotta take you out to do something fun first before I can call you that, right?

[You can't see it but he's smirking.]

Too much holiday cheer for you?

[Phone]

[lookinglively]

[Axel you don't even understand what you've gotten yourself into by mentioning Demyx and caroling in the same breath.]

'Kay! I'll be right over.

[That is all Axel will get before Demyx is bounding off-

-until Demyx comes back a few minutes later.]

Uhhh, dude, where do you live again?

[Phone]

[fineinthefire]

[Hopefully a lot of annoyed neighbors. He just shakes his head. Not that Demyx can see that.]

768 Bunker Street. I'll make sure the porch light is on so you don't get lost.

[Action]

[lookinglively]

[About 15 minutes later you should be getting a knock at your door. If Axel so decides to open up he'll find Demyx standing on his step, for some reason looking like he's panting a little. Almost like he just ran all the way there for some reason. May or may not have gotten lost somewhere along the way. Demyx still looks excited despite that.]

Yo! Axel open up. [There's a second but quieter knock at the door. This isn't the wrong house again is it?]

[Action]

[fineinthefire]

[He takes a moment or two to just look at Demyx through that handy dandy peephole and have himself a private chuckle before opening the door. Wow did this guy get motivated for music. In his best mock sage voice he continues.]

Patience is a virtue young one.

[But he steps to the side and lets Demyx in.]

Did you seriously run all the way here?

[istreamustream]

Caroling is great! Nothing quite spreads holiday cheer like a catchy yuletide jingle.

I even raised some money for the kids of Mayfield! ...Not quite sure what I'm going to use it for yet. It's hard finding children in need around here.

[Phone]

[fineinthefire]

Oh yeah, definitely.

[Oh Keith, you poor unsuspecting man.]

Quite the upstanding citizen then, huh? Maybe you could donate it to the library so they can expand the children's section. Or the elementary school or something.

[Although he is a firm believer that nothing you can do will help these people in this place.]

[Phone]

[istreamustream]

[he salutes at the phone]

That sounds like an excellent idea! The library could use some improvements to their selection.

Perhaps they could get some of the newer comic books too. I've been dying to see what happens to Atomic Man next!

(without an ounce of shame or sarcasm in his voice)

Re: [Phone]

[fineinthefire]

[...This is a small silence where Axel is trying not to laugh at you.]

Right. Can't just leave Atomic Man hanging off of his proverbial cliff now can we?

[phone]

[surmounthesky]

...Caroling?

[phone]

[fineinthefire]

Yeah. I'll explain it when you get here. Now hurry up.

[phone]

[surmounthesky]

Uh... Kay? And I need to bring someone with me?

[fineinthefire]

Yeah, just pick someone. Can't be that difficult. You go to school right? Bring someone from there.
