Selene and Aphrodite left. Selene's shinki Riku is gone, too. If anyone was friends with them, just wanted to let you know that's why you can't find them.

And for anyone who doesn't know, Axel is dead.

[Roxas isn't going to go into more details on that last one.]

I AM NOT CUTE AND SWEET

yes you are! don't deny it, Roxas (●♡∀♡)
my words are 100% truth!

[SHERYL STOP HE DOES NOT WANT PEOPLE TO SEE THIS]

Girls are supposed to be cute and sweet!

you're absolutely right
i'm also sexy, beautiful, and marvelous ♥

[SHERYL]

What about pretty?

i already know that i'm pretty but thanks for the vote of confidence!

I think I'm okay. That's fine, right?

don't sell yourself that short, Roxas! how dare you =U=

Selling myself short?

[He'll admit he's a good fighter, cook, and isn't bad at archery. Looks are not something he really thinks of.]

"okay" is a handy shorthand for "you're not terrible but you're not all that good"

trust me, i know mediocrity when i see one

["Mediocre" is not even the word she has in mind for Roxas]

I thought okay just meant okay.

[Why do certain words have more than one meaning? It's really confusing...]

it depends on the context! sometimes it can mean something or someone is okay

then you have another context when you're describing someone you don't get along with but in a polite manner

[That makes sense.]

So if I didn't like someone and another person praised them, it's okay to just say "They're okay" and it's still the same meaning that you don't like them but you're being nice?

[But does that sentence make sense?]

[Roxas...]

that doesn't mean you should really do it if you don't like that person to begin with!

I was just making sure I got it right. If I don't like someone, I tell them. Unless I have to work with them.

good, i like how you think

working with someone you don't like is such a pain, honestly, even if it's for a good cause or a job. whenever i meet with people i dislike, it totally shows on my face so i get asked to deal with it -- by my staff :\

what's the big deal if they find out i don't like someone?? so weird. everyone has a reason to dislike certain people, anyway...

I don't get it either... Isn't that a human thing? That you don't have to like everyone you meet?

right! there are, what, six billion people on a planet? it's impossible to like every single one of them

that's how life goes
you'll eventually find someone who is so detestable that you just want them to disappear

[... Roxas can't imagine that many people in one place...]

I had a person like that. I hope they never show up here.

oh... that girl you told me about once. is that who it is?

No. He's a lot worse. He makes her look like someone nice.

is he someone dangerous?

Yeah. If he shows up, I'll warn you.

if he's dangerous, then must be some kind of murderer or a sociopath...

[a sociopath like her ex-manager, oops]

[.... how to... explain Vanitas.]

No, more like a monster.
