Roxas hadn't quite been able to decide if he wanted to go formal or not for this, but he ultimately settled on just making sure his clothes didn't look a wreck. His favorite shirt and jacket had been torn in whatever battle had given him the scar on his chest and his favorite jeans had a lovely bloodstain that wasn't coming out. Whether it was his blood or not, he really didn't want to know, but either way, that had left him rummaging through some of the clothes that Sora's parents had bought him. Satisfied with a pair loose fitting dark gray jeans and a short sleeved button up shirt, he'd come down to the party.

He wasn't sure he should have though. He'd been following the video game news from Earth and had seen that that video game company wasn't laying off on the stories of the Keyblade. The latest was to detail what had happened about twelve years ago and Aqua was one of the central figures in that story. Roxas wondered how much she'd been told about that, but decided not to say anything. There was another dilemma and Roxas wasn't sure how to take it. He looked like someone Aqua had known and it wasn't just a passing resemblance. Upon seeing that in the game data, he had left off any further news of it, though he wasn't entirely sure if it was because of that. He did plan to play the game anyway, but there was a possibility of getting at least part of the story right now.

So, rather than mingle, Roxas stuck with his usual habits at parties: he hung around by the tables with the food and contented himself with snacking and watching everyone else.
