Subject: Help wanted for skate park
Warnings: None

Aight, so me and Checkers are trying to make a skate park over at Hero's Rest and we gonna need some help.

[Beat moves aside to show off the State of the Skate Park. It is obvious that it needs quite a bit of Help. He stands in what looks to be the middle of a repurposed amphitheater. The only things that have been set up is a ramp and a grind rail from the stairs that are already part of the original architecture.]

It ain't much right now, but we got a lotta plans.

[Setting aside the shellphone, he rummages through his sketchbook, eventually flipping to a page with said plans. He holds it up to reveal a very rough drawing of his and Roxas' dream skate park for all to see.]

We thinkin' 'bout puttin' up a half-pipe somewhere 'round here— [He starts moving around, pointing out to a space each time. Boy, does he look excited about it, grinning from ear to ear. Very much like a kid in a candy store.] —coupla pyramids somewhere in the middle, an' a buncha rails and ramps all 'round. Yo, Checkers! Am I missin' anythin'?

[Roxas can be seen in the background, cleaning up part of the amphitheater that they hadn't gotten to. He turns to Beat.]

Maybe a bowl somewhere?

Nah, you's right. Gotta add that to the plan. [Then Beat turns back to the shellphone.] That too. Anyways, it's gonna be a lotta work, so if can help us out, we gonna owe you big time, yo! Jus' name your price!

[ooc: Beat is red and Roxas is blue. Either one of them or both will be answering replies!]

Tiger doesn't seem really fitting. Did someone call you that?

[seasaltkeys]

[Roxas rolls his eyes.]

Xigbar. I think he was just being a jerk.

[obliviscere]

Sounds like him. I think he just finds it fun to be a jerk most of the time.

[seasaltkeys]

Probably. Not sure which was worse. Tiger for me or Poppet for Xion.

[obliviscere]

Poppet just seems really mean spirited. Like he went out of his name to make sure to dig up the absolute worst.

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah, he sucked.

[Those bridges have been burned.]

Kinda put me off nicknames until now.

[obliviscere]

I think that's understandable. But also good that you're coming around to them here. It feels like we shouldn't let him win like that, you know? To let him impact our lives even so far away.

[seasaltkeys]

Oh I am definitely not letting that happen.

I promised myself I wouldn't listen to any member of the Organization like that ever again.

[Axel doesn't count.]

[obliviscere]

Good. I'm glad. That's also a really good promise to make. I made a similar one too. Along with another small promise to myself.

[seasaltkeys]

It's worked so far.

But yeah?

[obliviscere]

Yeah. I made a promise to try and do more to help everyone and to try to need less help myself.

[seasaltkeys]

[He nods.]

You know you already do a lot though, right?

[obliviscere]

That's nice of you to say. I've tried. Both to make up for the past and because I just really want to be able to help everyone.

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah, I know.

Just. Don't forget about yourself in all that, okay?

[obliviscere]

I won't. As long as you don't forget yourself either.

[seasaltkeys]

I'll do my best.
