[There is context to this, though how much you get might be dependent on how well you know Roxas. But it's been on his mind a lot, especially since last month with it's stormy skies led to him taking a pretty big hit from a harpy. Recovery's been a thing, and it gives you time to think, which maybe isn't the best thing.

Maybe it's just been fair to say that Roxas's confidence has been rocked a little. And maybe he's reached a point where he's ready to ask for help.]

I want to get stronger. How do I do that?

i'm gonna guess that's exactly what it sounds like
blades shaped like keys? why not use swords

Yeah, pretty much.
Keyblades are special.
I can use them to cast magic to.

magic sword, huh
what's the strongest thing you've fought?

[Uh, well...there's Saix, I guess. And Xehanort.

But it wasn't just me fighting then.

xehanort?
that's just the sound you make when you sneeze

[He's not wrong.]

I swear that was the guy's name.
He sucked.

is his strength as embarrassing as his name?

he was pretty strong
for an old bald guy
but sora beat him
so i guess?

sooo the one you actually want to get stronger than is named sora

Huh?
oh...yeah
I guess I kinda do

then keep that in mind and whole-ass it with your training every day

Uh...right!
But what kind of training should I even be doing?

how should i know?
i've never used a keysword

[Somehow. He probably should have seen this coming.]

Have you ever used a sword before?]

nope
using a weapon is too risky in case you're disarmed
why use a sword when you have fists?

What if the other guy has a sword though?
Or claws?

easy
dodge the sword or the claws until you can get a good kick in the gut in

Well I got that
but it didn't really help me

then practice your kicks until they get stronger!

That seems almost too easy.

[But he is going to do it.]
