just like your coat?

talk about being born with it all, huh.

[cloak]

Just how I was made.

[doestheickyjobs]

you keep saying "made." what's the deal with that?

[cloak]

Because I was made, not born.

[doestheickyjobs]

robot?

[cloak]

No, but that's the first time anyone's guessed that.

[doestheickyjobs]

hey you could be anybody under that hood, how am i supposed to know?

[cloak]

Isn't that the point, with clothes like this?

[doestheickyjobs]

how should i know what you dress for? me, i like to stand out from the crowd.

the big coat works just as well for that around here, if you haven't noticed.

[cloak]

I don't have a particular fondness for my face.

[That's...about as much as he'll elaborate on that one. He likes the coverage, and he's comfortable with it.

Nearly a year and a half of being the only one in a world with his face didn't erase his knowledge that it was twice-borrowed]

[doestheickyjobs]

[His face? What's wrong with it? Scars? Disfigurement? Big nose? No chin?

Well, Roxas's weird insecurities aren't any of Axel's business, he guesses. The hood being pulled as tight as he keeps it at least means it's not hard to spot him.]

well okay then

fair warning if anybody else your size shows up in a coat i'm gonna tie a ribbon on you so i can tell which one you are.

[cloak]

Guess it's not impossible.

[If his original showed up. Or Xion. Those who'd been destroyed showed up routinely in this world, after all, so it wouldn't be entirely surprising]

Too bad ribbons around here probably don't guard against status ailments.

[doestheickyjobs]

aw, they don't?

at least they're still cute. got a color preference? i think you'd look good in plaid.

[cloak]

I like blue, but it doesn't especially matter what kind.

[doestheickyjobs]

you got it.

[cloak]

And what do we get you if there's another Axel out there?

[One of his strange forays into the realm of humor, an odyssey that has yet to end with many understanding when he's trying to joke around.

At least his voice can't be faulted for the delivery on this one]

[doestheickyjobs]

a sign that says #1.

you know if you're letting me choose and all.

[cloak]

I'll keep it in mind.
