[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?

[Taking notes.]

I'm pretty good at climbing already, so I guess I can do more of it!

Just on a ship though?

[moremystyle]

Best place for it, if you ask me. Climbing a rock's a piece of [...] cake once you've learned how to climb something that's moving all the time, and in several directions all at once.

Besides, it's a great view.

[seasaltkeys]

Makes sense. I guess I can work on doing that.

Once everything's fixed probably.

[moremystyle]

When everything's fixed?

[seasaltkeys]

Part of the boat go damaged during everything

[The harpy kind of pushed him through the deck.]

[moremystyle]

Ah. "Everything" being a certain bird-shaped storm that swept through?

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah.

That's the monster I lost against

[moremystyle]

Don't be too hard on yourself, lad. I lost too and I've been fighting since I was five years old.

[private]

[seasaltkeys]

A lot of people are saying that, and I'm trying. I guess a lot of people had trouble against it.

It's just...I've fought bigger monsters and won. So this time...yeah.

[Kind of a blow to his pride.]

[private]

[moremystyle]

I've fought them too.

Trouble was I got caught fighting this one alone.

[private]

[seasaltkeys]

Oh.

Are you okay?

[It was bad enough when it was two of them that got knocked around.]

[private]

[moremystyle]

I'm all right. I got off way lighter than I could have, given the size and ferocity she had.

[private]

[seasaltkeys]

No kidding
it was pretty bad all around then
