Title: Sunset
Author: truthinyourlies/kerimaxwell/caffinatedshinigami
Rating: G
Warnings: none
Summary: He gets his wires crossed sometimes.
Every evening, for every day of summer, for all the summers he can remember, Roxas watches the sun set from the clock tower. All week though, the sunset seems too…bright. It’s packed too full of reds and oranges and yellows, like it’s been run through an artist’s mind, then placed in the sky. He knows the sunsets he’s seen before are darker, more purples and blues, hardly any of these warm colors at all, and all the houses around would be glowing.
He doesn’t even realize he’s not picturing a sunset at all anymore, but the dark quiet of night.
Title: Too Much

Rating: PG
Warnings: sap, Akuroku, death
Summary: When can't you handle it?
“Aw, come on. I’d totally die for you, Rox.” Axel cocked his head and smirked cheekily at his shorter companion.
Roxas scoffed. “It’s easy to die for something. It’s way harder to live for it.” He grinned up at Axel from underneath sunshine blond bangs. “Live for me.”
That’s the only thing Axel can hear running through his mind as the fire and heat from his own attack sear his skin. Live for me.
You were right, Rox. He falls to his knees, chakrams disintegrating to nothing more than shadow. It was harder, so much harder.
Too hard for me.
Title: Not Enough
Author: truthinyourlies/kerimaxwell/caffinatedshinigami
Rating: PG
Warnings: n/a
Summary: Normally, he has so much love to give.
“You can’t save everyone, Sora, especially not those in the Organization.”
Sora startles at that, and then becomes embarrassed. Not because Aerith knew exactly what he was thinking, but that Sora hadn’t even thought they could be saved, or that they should be saved.
“I know.”
She gives him a warm, sad smile and Sora just feels guilty that the idea hadn’t occurred to him before.
And then he just feels sad, because there’s no one there to not give up on the Nobodies, just like he didn’t give up on Riku.
For them, he just wouldn’t have the heart.
035.Sixth Sense.
Title: Smell
Author: truthinyourlies/kerimaxwell/caffinatedshinigami
Rating: PG
Warnings: doom & gloom, Akuroku
Summary: They won't notice until it's too late.
Demyx’s favorite pastime after playing his sitar and avoiding training is Axel-and-Roxas-watching.
Most times, they’re amusing. When he’s in a rare, bittersweet sort of mood (how can he have moods if he doesn’t have feelings?), he thinks their lives must have been some tragic exercise in loveless-ness that they had to wait until they were nobodies to find their somebody special.
Other times, they’re painful to watch, Demyx thinks, cause he can smell the doom, doom, doom just reeking from the two of them and Axel and Roxas won't notice a thing until they've already crashed and begun to burn.
