027; [text/action for Olivine]

[keychained]

What's the best way to hang on to something really important to you? Do you keep it close to you, or do you lock it up somewhere safe?

[... not that Sora is entirely aware of a way to lock memories up somewhere safe, but if it comes to the point that he can't keep them in his heart where they belong, like he's concluded after a hazy dream last week and the way Naminé acted around him earlier, he's starting to think he's well on his way to figuring something out.]

[whether you contact him through the gear or seek him out somewhere in Olivine, you're likely to find him in one of two places: he might be in his room he's sharing with Kairi and Riku at the inn, where there are pieces of paper strewn everywhere. all over the bed, on the nightstands, the desk in the corner... Sora's right in the middle of the mess, trying to figure out the best way to sort everything.]

[or you may find him flat on his back along the shoreline, staring up at the sky-- just like how one might find him if he were back home. if there's one thing that doesn't ever change, no matter how the rest of the world changes, it's the sounds of the ocean.]

PERSONAL NOTES

1.
You are from a world called Destiny Islands. You live there with your parents and your two best friends, Riku and Kairi. You're also good friends with Selphie, Tidus and Wakka. Mom makes this fish casserole that is the best. It's been a long time since you've had it. You miss it.

2.
You and Riku are really competitive. He can be kind of sarcastic and harsh sometimes, but after everything you've been through together, you would trust him with your life. You butt heads sometimes, but it never takes too long to patch things up.
Kairi's another person you would trust with your life. She's always been there for you, and was the one who protected you while you were traveling the worlds. Never forget her. Also, see the note about paopu fruits.

3.
A while ago, you left Destiny Islands and you met two more best friends, Donald and Goofy. Donald has a temper, but he's fiercely loyal to his friends. Goofy is like the steady rock that supports you, and he keeps you and Donald in line, especially when you start arguing.
You also met Leon, Aerith and Yuffie when you left your world. Leon's got a tough exterior, but he is a really nice guy underneath it. He also loves puppies. Yuffie teases a lot to show her affection, and is a really strong fighter. Aerith's a healer who supports everyone else and is really knowledgeable about the other worlds.
Also see the note about the Keyblade.

4.
A while back, you, Donald and Goofy were separated when you arrived in a new world called Johto. There are more notes on all the people you've met: Roxas, Minnie, Xion, Ven, Terra, Aqua, Naminé, Mickey, Vanitas, Rise, Kaito, Heather, Merlin, Hope, Lightning... a lot of others. Hang on to them; they're all in the same place.

5.
Your friends are your power.
