☉ step one: choose your flavour of roxas one: early-mid Days aka "i am baby and understand nothing, but ice cream and friends are pretty rad ig??" two: mid-late Days aka "i still understand nothing, and i WILL die mad about it" three: digital Twilight Town aka "i'm?? definitely normal?? and i understand NOTHING, least of all why red sonic is following me" four: nebulous post-KH2-prologue timepoint aka "you are 99.9% likely to be using telepathy/lucid dreaming/diving around in people's heart stations to be picking this option" five: post-KH3 aka Here There Be Spoilers and also limitless possibilities six: WILDCARD aka if you're wanting some kind of AU, this is the option you wanna pick. canon divergence and crossover AUs are all fair game here! heck i'll even bring back DDD!roxas on request if you want
☉ step two: choose your scenario one: the obligatory ice cream prompt; look if you're friends with Roxas you are gonna be subjected to ice cream at least ONCE it is tradition and i do not make the rules two: in ur world, tryna be sneaky; for some reason the organisation has Business on your character's world and Roxas isn't as good at sneaking around as he thinks he is (alternatively depending on ur preferred roxas flavour: he's there for some other reason and isn't as good at pretending he's not from another world as he thinks he is) three: leeeeeeeeet's STRUGGLE; idk why you're in Twilight Town but congratulations you've shown up in time for the annual Struggle tournament!! now what? four: alriiiiiight, fight fight fight; what are we fighting?? heartless?? something else?? look either way he has 2 keyblades and he's not afraid to kick butt with them five: soft hanahaki; it's me of course there's gonna be a soft hanahaki prompt. grappling with the existential problems of being a Nobody, now with added magical realism flower petals that you apparently shouldn't even be capable of coughing up! (more about what soft hanahaki is here) six: interdimensional social media; whether you're following each other on kingdom hearts insta or there's something else going on here, congratulations, you're internet friends now seven: we live in a jamjar; obligatory insta-jamjar simulation prompt for all your "let's pretend we're in a jamjar game" needs eight: WILDCARD; hit me with whatever else your heart desires!!
☉ step three: comment and profit??? (format ur tags however u want! informal/formal/bracketspam/prose/comment spam/texting/social media/whatever tickles your fancy, i will match ur style accordingly!)
[ one certainly cannot ever be too careful when it comes to portals and time-travel, given literally everything that happened the last time that was involved. Roxas still isn't sure why he's the one who's been picked to check this world out, but he's happy enough to do some recon work if it helps. Riku and Aqua have their hands full enough with all the other stuff that being the only Masters left around entails.
so far things seem pretty normal though? sure, there's definitely some kinda darkness here - he can feel it. but there hasn't been a sign of any Heartless yet as he's been wandering whatever city this is--
wow, that was close. Roxas is saved from a collision by his reflexes, jumping back and blinking at someone who is giving off some strong impressions of being chased and absolutely not wanting to be found.
... well, he might not know why everyone in the street is so excited all of a sudden, but this definitely counts as weird. ]
Wait. [ okay, seriously, why is literally the entire street acting like that. it puts him on edge. ] You want some cover?
... I mean, I'm not really about to say no at a time like this, but are you sure about that? You might really get caught up in it like this.
[ She's trying to spare you, fellow blond. But also she's maybe ducking a little more behind him as the crowd's clamoring gets louder and a little more manic. Geez. This stupid eye ability is going to be the death of her, she's pretty sure. ]
[ what is wrong with these people? Roxas's hands itch to summon his Keyblades, but. these aren't Heartless! he can't just go around hitting innocent people with them just because they're acting scary and weird. ]
Looks like I'm already caught up in it. [ as the crowd starts pushing closer, he starts scanning the street around them for a likely escape route, and... ah! that narrow side street leading off of the main road looks good, if they can knock something in front of it on their way through. he nudges her and nods toward the opening. ] Let's make a break for it on three?
[ Well, he's right. Even if he tried to avoid things now, they'd likely slam into him with phones brandished.
She'll apologize later. For now, Momo reaches up to make sure her hood is in place and firms her lips into a thin line, eyes on the prize (that is really just a narrow street she'll probably trip getting to). ]
[ and on "three" he grabs her hand, 'cause the idea of getting split up and mobbed by this crowd? not good. he starts dashing toward their goal, face just as firm as hers is. ]
Look for something we can knock over so they don't follow us!
[ what he wouldn't give right now to be able to cast Barrier... ]
[ Grab away, Roxas, she's doing her best to sprint after him, and as soon as they get close to the alley, Momo lets her foot fly and upend a nearby trashcan.
[ soaring beautifully, and scattering trash all over the place as it lands with a heavy clang in the path of the crowd. some of the more fervent ones near the front might've even got some of that smelly trash all over them. ]
Nice.
[ they might still be running, but he has to spare a comment for a kick that good. he sprints further into the alleyway, taking a sharp right bend when the lane splits off into two different directions. ]
I don't - really know - where I'm going, so - any ideas?
[ hopping a fence should be no big deal after sprinting up a skyscraper. and then he can start asking what all that was just about. Roxas skids to a halt as the fence draws near, looking up at it with a nod. ]
[ She's obviously done this plenty of times, releasing Roxas' hand to take the fence at a leap. She's... not too tall, so it's not like she's clearing it, but she's getting a good enough grip to scramble up to the top and swing herself over to--
Land!
... Right on top of a stray bottle, which then rolls out from underneath her and sends her toppling backwards.
[ wow, she's practically a pro at this! Roxas watches her, looking visibly impressed--
right up until she crashes backwards. at which point he winces before running and leaping at the alley wall, using some apparently physics-defying parkour skills to push off of it and launch himself over the fence. he straightens up from the landing and turns to Momo in concern. ]

I don't - really know - where I'm going, so - any ideas?
no subject
[ Why do you know, Momo. ]
There's a fence at the end of this! If we can hop that, we should be home-free!
[ Most people usually give up the chase by then, and Momo might be clumsy, but she's also athletic enough to lose her pursuers before too long. ]

Are you okay?

[ She was a little too busy cradling her head and not even bothering to sit up to have caught Roxas' amazing parkour moves, sadly. ]
I was just thinking I was being unnaturally graceful today... haaa.
no subject
[ he's?? trying?? he crouches down next to her. ]
And hey, seems like you were right about us shaking that crowd off. What was with that, anyway?
no subject
So I try to go out in disguise, but I guess someone recognized me and it kiiiind of escalated?
[ How do you explain "hey, my eyes are magic". ]
no subject
... not that he even knows what an idol is, either. but it's gotta mean someone famous. right? right? ]
That sounds awful. Does that happen to you a lot?
[ she seemed way too familiar with the best way to lose pursuers back there. ]
no subject
[ It's... Wonderful. Momo manages a grin after a few seconds, though. ]
So thanks a lot for your help, really. I didn't expect that from a stranger.
