"I hear he used to be a gangster," Roxas said from where he lay on the bed as he mashed buttons, his character on the screen clearly winning. Axel was silent for a moment, and then dropped his controller as he buried his face in his hands laughing. Roxas was confused, but didn't waste the opportunity to waste Axel (the game announcing loudly "Finish Him!" as Sub-Zero gripped Liu Kang's head and ripped it off, his spine coming with it). "What's so funny?"
"A gangster? Seriously? Like, 'yo yo, dawg, what up?' and 'I be bustin' a cap in a fool'?" Axel choked out, and Roxas blinked before he pictured it, dropping his controller as well as laughter bubbled up and he rolled onto his back, clutching his stomach.
"Like a mobster, you idiot!" he said when he finally managed to calm down. Still, the image of Luxord in a basketball jersey and sagging pants with a gold grill and a do-rag was painfully hilarious.
If Luxord wondered over the next few days why Axel kept throwing him gang signs, which subsequently caused Roxas to burst into stifled laughter, he didn't say anything about it.
