Someone hates his luck.

[Cambot finds Roxas in the kitchen, in all his black-and-white cartoony glory and having somehow managed to navigate the minefield of banana peels without slipping. He's fetching ice for some reason. Huh, now why would he be wrapping a little plastic baggy of ice in a towel?

When he turns to face Cambot, he's holding the makeshift ice pack to his face, his left eye in particular, and he does NOT look happy. He glares for just a moment before removing the ice pack and giving a good view of a marvelous shiner.

That looks painful...

He puts the ice pack back before speaking up.]

Chibi. Sora. I found that ball you guys were talking about.

[He pulls a red ball out of his pocket, holds it up for Cambot to look at and then puts it away again. The last thing they need is for it to get set bouncing again.]

[Twitch. Really, Wilykit? Really? In what universe does getting a black eye not hurt?]

Yes, it did hurt. Yes, I'm going to be okay.

[cleverkit]

[You wanna call the rules of that universe down on everyone's heads next week?]

So, how'd you manage to get hit in the face with a rubber ball, anyway? Did you just not see it coming?

[She wants to believe there's a non-embarrassing reason for it, for the sake of Roxas' dignity. Otherwise, she just might start giggling.]

[He has to give his answer some thought. He doesn't know if Wilykit's world even has TV, let alone cartoons.]

Honestly? It was bouncing around as if shot out of a cannon. It should have stopped after a while, but this week's weirdness makes physics nuts.

[It would be embarrassing if he'd known for a while that it was bouncing around. But in his case, he'd literally just seen Chibi's attempt at warning and then turned around to do something. Unfortunately, that sounds too much like a lame excuse, so he'll leave his explanation as it is.]

[There may have been similar kid's entertainment on Thundera before it exploded, but nothing close on Third Earth.]

Really? That sounds neat! [A brief pause.] And also bad. But still!

[Oh, this is not going to end well at all, is it?]

[thirteenth_brat]

It's not an excuse to do something crazy. Or stupid.

[Well, if he'd taken the time to actually reply to Chibi's warning he would have been smacked in the back of the head instead. His Cambot may or may not have recorded the impact, but it's just as well for him that no one seems to have been paying attention at the time.]

[cleverkit]

Why do you always assume I'm gonna do something crazy each week?

[thirteenth_brat]

Let's just say it's something you and Sora have in common.

[Line face, just line face, Wilykit.]
