When destiny calls you, you must be strong

Who: Sora and whoever wants to cheer him up
What: You can only be cheerful for so long, and Sora may be reaching the end of his rope.
Where: The Maw. Everything happens in the Maw. :\
When: Friday morning

It was starting to get warmer outside, but it was still early enough in the year for him to be wearing a coat. It was also really windy - he had pulled up the hood to his coat and sat on a boulder nearly twice his size, swinging his legs back and forth. In his hands, he held the Oathkeeper keychain, quietly running his thumb along the smooth petals that made up Kairi's charm.

He took the others' words to heart - he knew that he couldn't focus too much on the stuff that was going wrong, but instead on getting Kairi back. But...

He sighed, falling back on the rock and tucking his hands behind his head to act as a pillow. He stared up at the bright blue sky, and couldn't help but feel that he really had messed up somehow.

Sora frowned, rubbing the back of his neck. He knew that technically, he wasn't doing anything wrong. He was still fighting, still looking, still hoping. But he had done that the first time too, had thought that everything was going to be okay after Xemnas had been defeated.

"I'm not gonna give up," Sora replied almost immediately, looking down at the ground and wrinkling his nose. "That'd be stupid. I just want everyone to be safe."

You saw nothing <.<

Roxas wasn't really the best choice for cheering someone up. Honestly, that was Sora's job. Which made things very awkward when Sora was the one who needed cheering up. It also didn't help that the two of them still had things they needed to discuss. Still, maybe improving Sora's mood first was a good idea.

Unfortunately, he didn't really know what else to say. Anything he could think of sounded either unnecessarily sappy or unnecessarily callous. Then again, Sora was a sap. Maybe sappy was the way to go.

"Hey, it'll be okay. It might seem a little... bad... right now. But I'm sure it'll turn out okay." Why did it feel like he was sticking his foot in his mouth?
