3rd Day [Text]

[seasaltkeys]

[He's been thinking about this a lot. Since he got over the shock of the mansion showing up, and since people started returning from it unscathed. He's not sure if that's a good thing or not, since he doesn't know if he'll go through the same thing.

But at some point he needs to know. Deep down, he knows he can't keep running. At least this time, it's his choice, and he's not being forced into anything.


He's off by himself, keeping things to text in an effort to stay anonymous, though who knows how effective that will be.]

How do you deal with something that's bothering you?

[That should be vague enough.]

[Kind of stared at it for a little while and debated...]

Kind of depends on what it is.

[Text]

[seasaltkeys]

Something that needs to be dealt with.

[Text]

[trademark_skull]

So then deal with it.

Text

[unrecovered]

[Well, that's just specific enough to be completely unhelpful.]

Like what?

Text

[seasaltkeys]

Like anything. Something you know you have to deal with but don't know how.

[allfunandgamesuntil]

Talking to someone can help, sometimes. If you aren't sure what to do, it can help you figure it out.

[seasaltkeys]

Who would I talk to?

[Text]

[dork_of_keys]

Talking to someone about it can help. Even if they don't really have an answer for you, they might still be able to help you work it out. Sometimes the talking itself helps too.

[According to the Moogles, anonymous messages aren't supposed to be possible, though they never did specify how anyone was supposed to know who posted a text message unless the little fluffballs know a lot more than they're letting on and have set up the communicators to identify their owners with each post...]

[If they have, Roxas hasn't figured it out, and technology tends to escape him. He'll just stick with this combination of vague and trying to get answers for now.]

What if I don't feel I can talk about it?

[Text]

[letteropener]

The first step, I think, is to be certain you know why it is bothering you.

[Text]

[seasaltkeys]

[Why it's bothering him? Because he was scared? Because he didn't know what would happen if he went near the mansion?]

All I know is that it is. And I can't shake the feeling.

[earthshatter]

It depends on the problem in question.

[seasaltkeys]

So there's more than one answer.

[why can nothing be straightforward?]

[salvagedlight]

[Well that's incredibly vague. Still, he's kind of going through the same thing himself... sort of.]

I think... you just have to decide to deal with it. You can't keep running away from it.

[seasaltkeys]

I'm not gonna run away.

I just don't know how to face it.

[buymedumplings]

Depends on what it is.

Sometimes I would go to my brother and talk to him. He's pretty smart and can usually help.

If that doesn't work...well, I tend to go to this noodle place back home and try to work out my problems over a bowl and by talking to Pabu. It's...not quite as helpful, but it's worked sometimes.

Why? Is something bothering you?

[text]

[seasaltkeys]

Something like that, yeah.

I don't know who to talk to though.

{Text]

[colorbymemory]

Sometimes I draw until I can think a little more calmly and find a way to deal with it. It helps to have something to do while I look for an answer.

{Text]

[seasaltkeys]

I'm not very good at drawing.

[Because that's the real issue here.]

{Text.]

[skysmirror]

I try to find out what I can do about it. If I get stuck, I talk to my friends.

{Text.]

[seasaltkeys]

That's what I don't know about, on both counts.

[icemaker]

Sometimes it's best to distance yourself from what's bothering you so you can look at it objectively and try to figure out how to conquer it.

[seasaltkeys]

I don't know if I can though.

[One thing leads to another, and really it's the whole space that's bothering him.]

[Text]

[go_dream]

There's not much of a choice there. You either avoid it, or face it.

[Text]

[seasaltkeys]

That's what I keep getting told. But both are hard to do.
