Hi, guys! Anyone else pumped for the KH 1.5 ReMIX NA and EU release? I know I am! I don't even have a PS3, but I'm still gonna preorder the game when it's available. I may have to wait a bit before I can buy a PS3, but at least I won't have to worry about buying the game. I would get a PS4 when it comes out, but apparently it's not backwards compatible… like, at all… It'll be a pain in the ass when they release new games for it, because then I'll have to buy that too, especially since KHIII will probably be PS4 exclusive.
Anyway, thanks to X-blade025 for reviewing! I'm glad I got at least one person hooked already! To be honest, I didn't actually mean to make Ven a big jerk, but he just sort of started getting characterized that way, so I'm just gonna see where it goes from here. Tron-style PE, I wish it were real too…
Disclaimer: Refer to chapter one
A competition called COCK?!
"So, one final question before I send you all off for lunch. Let's make it an easy one, shall we? Say a scout was sent into an enemy base to determine the amount of energy it takes to power the entire building. He finds the generator room, and must determine what the energy levels are based on what he can see. The main generator shows a number that reads six thousand units, and the three turbines it is connected to now multiply this amount. Supposing there is a resistor that divides the amount of power coming out of each turbine by 1.5, what number will the scout report back to his allies? MR. DESTATI!"
"Huh? Uh, it'll be…"
"Oh, my apologies, Roxas. Would you mind hitting your sleeping friend there?"
Though I had been absolutely terrified by Mr. the Wise's (I know, really weird last name) loud baritone shout, I was happy to comply with his order. Sora had fallen asleep within ten minutes of the blond teacher's lecture, and so it fell to me to wake him up. Well, he did want me to be his alarm clock. I whacked him hard on the back of the head, smirking all the while.
"Whuzza-" he said incomprehensibly, shooting up into a groggy sitting position.
"Ah, welcome back, Sora," said Mr. the Wise, crossing his arms. "Now would you be so kind as to answer the question?"
"…Uh… what was the question?"
"You should have been paying attention. Luckily I wrote it on the board for you. Now tell me, what does the scouter say about its power level?"
Almost immediately, Sora, some others, and myself all curled our lips inwards to stop ourselves from laughing. Oh, man, he had to word it that way, didn't he? I watched as Sora took a few deep breaths and pulled the sunglasses from the top of his head. Huh, I didn't even know he had those on. Holding them in an aggressive manner, he looked Mr. the Wise straight in the eye and replied…
"IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAND!" and immediately crushed the shades in his hands.
The classroom basically went into riot after that. Oh, the laughter, it hurts my abs! Make it stop, oh no, I can't stop laughing! Dammit, Sora; you and your hilarious knack for opportune jokes will be the death of me. While everyone was laughing, it occurred to me that Sora had just crushed his shades, but what I didn't know was that he had an identical pair in his pocket, which he took out and replaced on his head. I wonder how many pairs he has in there. No, no, no, I just stopped laughing, don't… ahaha… no… heehee… lolololololol.
Mr. the Wise was probably the only one in the room not smiling. It seemed as though he didn't get the joke, so he just stood there frowning because he knew he wouldn't be able to get us to settle down. Besides, even if he did, it wouldn't matter because the lunch bell went off about two minutes into our laughing fit. Everyone packed their things away and quickly headed out of the math classroom. Man, who knew math could be so funny?
"Roxas, this way," Sora motioned. I was quick to follow after him, still not knowing the layout of the school.
"Where are we headed?" I asked him. "Cafeteria?"
"Nah, we only hang out there when it's too cold or raining, and that's pretty rare on Destiny Islands. Usually we go sit on the grass out front on nice days like today."
That sounded logical enough. Sunny days, outside; rainy days, in. I followed him down a flight of stairs and through the crowded hallways. Sora seemed to have no problem shoving his way through the hoards of people, but I wasn't doing so well. Being at a private school away from home meant that there weren't too many people at the school. Even with grades eight to twelve, this school had a lot more people with only four grades. I guess that's why it's private vs. public. After what seemed like the longest few minutes of suffocating through the crowds of people, we finally managed to exit the building.
"Sora, Roxas, over here!" Kairi waved over to us.
Just as Ven had ditched me this morning for Aqua, Sora was quick to run off to his… I guess I don't know if Sora and Kairi are dating either… Man, I should really get myself updated on this stuff.
"Hey, Roxas," she said as I got closer to them, "how's your first day going?"
I shrugged, "Meh, not too bad. Math was lame, but I got to beat up Ven in PE and ended up winning the whole tournament thingy."
"Whoa, you beat Ven?" Sora asked incredulously. "But he usually makes it to the finals! What was the score?"
I grinned deviously, "Sixty-nine to twelve."
Sora and Kairi both cracked up at hearing the number. Ah, the wonders of the sexually influenced teenage mind. Always good for humour, humiliation, and some other funny word that starts with the letter 'H'. We continued chatting as we went to find a suitable spot on the grass. Kairi and Sora were kind enough to keep me involved in their conversations, making sure that they didn't dwindle on things that I didn't understand for too long. This showed yet another reason why I like Sora better as a brother. Maybe I could convince Ven to swap families…
"Hey, guys," said Riku as he, Ven, Terra, and Aqua all made their ways towards us. "So, Roxas, I heard you pummeled your brother in PE."
"Ugh, are you guys still talking about that?" groaned Ven. "That was, like, a whole two hours ago! Can't we drop it?"
"You know, Ven, the more you complain about it, the more we'll bring it up," Aqua teased him. He blushed, but I don't know if it was out of embarrassment or the fact that Aqua was teasing him.
"Anyway, we've got more important matters to attend to," Terra boomed, practically causing an earthquake as he dropped down onto the grass. "It's the first day of a new school year, boys. You know what that means?"
Kairi rolled her eyes and Aqua face-palmed. Meanwhile, Ven hopped over Terra and took a seat beside him while Sora leered intensely at both of them. Riku looked almost reluctant to join them, but he did so anyway, playfully bopping Sora on the back of the head.
"Uh, what's going on?" I asked, leaning towards Kairi and Aqua.
"Ugh, it's this stupid game thing they started a couple years back," said Aqua.
"I don't know if Terra was waiting for us or what, but he seemed pretty eager to start this when we all started high school," added Kairi.
"Hey, Roxas," Terra called to me as I was about to ask them what they meant. "Come sit over here with us men. This is the best part of school!"
"Uh, should I?" I asked the girls. They just shrugged but shooed me over anyway.
"Atta boy, Roxas," Terra chuckled as I completed their circle.
"So, what exactly is this game?" I asked them.
"Game?! GAME?!" spouted my brother. Whoa, did I hit a nerve or something? I would've laughed at him, but Sora and Terra were giving me similar looks. Only Riku seemed indifferent to the whole situation.
"This is no game, Roxas!" stated Sora. "Guys, we have to do the thing for him! Y'know, the initiation!"
"Uh… initiation?" Were they making me join a cult or something?! This was weird, really weird.
"Riku, you've gotta start us off!" said Sora.
"Fine…" he sighed. Why was he part of this if he didn't even look like he wanted to do it? "This is…"
"Challenge!"
"Of!"
"CHAMPIONS!"
"…kickstarter…"
Well, if it wasn't obvious enough, Riku was the last person to chant out a word; and by chant I mean grumble/sigh/groan/deadpan. Other than him, they all took on a prideful stance as they loudly chanted out their respective word.
"Wait a second," I said, realizing something, "you guys want me to take part in an all-guys challenge that's abbreviated as COCK?!"
I could hear Kairi and Aqua burst out in laughter from behind me. Sora, Ven, and Terra all looked at each other sheepishly, apparently not realizing the stupidity of the name choice. Riku shook his head and cast his gaze downwards.
"Well, the, uh, name… nevermind, the name's not important!" said Terra in an attempt to move on. I wasn't convinced, but I let him continue.
"Basically, we have a challenge every week between us four – well, five with you – to kickstart the week. It's kinda like a morale booster, you could say."
"Okay… if it's such a morale booster, why does Riku look so apprehensive?"
"I'm apprehensive," said Riku, "because I never should've joined this thing in the first place…"
"And once you're in, you're in until we graduate!" Ven answered before I could ask.
"That still doesn't tell me why he doesn't wanna do it. Couldn't you just, I dunno, not?"
"Roxas, Roxas, Roxas," said Sora, shaking his head, "you have too many questions. I'll just explain the rules. Basically, we each take turns making up a challenge for each week. It could be as simple as a foot race or as difficult as getting the most kisses by the end of the lunch period."
"Ha, difficult? Speak for yourself, smiley," laughed Ven.
"ANYWAY, the point is to pick a challenge you think you can win at, or at least not lose at. The loser has to do something embarrassing, and the winner just adds a win to their overall score. Whoever has the most wins at the end of the year gets to make the guy with the most losses his servant for the first week of summer. Oh, and we all have to pay him one hundred munny."
"Now you see why I hate this thing…" muttered Riku.
"Oh, and one last thing, since Riku's already joined the game, he can't opt out. As much as he wants to, not participating once you've joined the competition gives you an automatic loss!"
I went over the rules in my head for a moment. It seemed like the best course of action would just be to not join the thing. I didn't need a servant, and I definitely didn't want to be a servant, let alone embarrass myself if I lost. It's not like four hundred munny would be a lot to win or anything. Hell, that couldn't even buy me a pair of nice shoes!
"Kay, so what happens if I don't join this thing?" I asked them, though I was leaning pretty heavily towards that option.
"Uh," answered Sora, looking to Terra. I guess since they'd all joined it, it didn't occur to them what would happen if someone didn't.
"You, um," started Terra, "you…"
"You'll either have to do the embarrassing thing with the loser, or we'll get you if you don't!" Ven answered quickly.
"Yeah, what he said!" Sora and Terra shouted enthusiastically.
"Oy vey," Riku muttered.
Damn, they pretty much had me cornered here. It was either risk doing an embarrassing act on some weeks, or get embarrassed every week regardless. I probably shouldn't have asked what would happen if I didn't join, I should've just opted out before they thought of something. Well, might as well suck it up now.
"Fine, I'll join your stupid COCK…"
"That's the spirit, Roxas!" shouted Terra. "Okay, well since it's the first week, I picked the challenge for today. Don't worry it's an easy one: eating contest!"
As he said that, a huge feast of food was pulled out from his bag. Holy crap, is that what he'd been carrying around all day?! I mean, okay, a few sub sandwiches, the bugers and pizza, and the big bottles of water seemed normal, but why would he even think to carry around a blueberry pie, pineapple upside down cake, and a full round of cheese?! How did he even fit all that in his bag without it getting crushed?! Who eats a full round of cheese?! Even for a tank like Terra, that seems absolutely disgusting.
"Ah, don't worry Roxas," said Ven, noting my stupefied expression, "Riku almost always loses eating contests. You won't beat Terra or Sora, so it's pretty much just us three fighting not to lose."
"Gee, that's reassuring…" I said sarcastically.
"At least you can keep your appetite around these oafs," groaned Riku, though he seemed amused by Terra and Sora's glaring match.
"You're going down this time, Terra!" Sora announced.
"Ha! Keep dreaming, squirt!" boasted Terra. Geez these guys got really serious with their stupid competitions. "Someone count us down!"
"321GO!" Sora spluttered before shoving an entire burger into his mouth. Ew, I didn't even know people could do that.
"Cheater!" shouted Terra, before copying Sora's strategy.
I realized that I was supposed to be battling it out, but Terra and Sora had already made a mess of the food. I could see people staring at us with odd looks on their faces. Great, I'd never make new friends at this rate… And there was supposed to be something more embarrassing after this?
"Rokphaph," I heard Ven say through a full mouth of pizza, "you haffa ee' f'you doe wa'a ooze!"
…English, please? Whatever, I got the gist of what he was saying. Taking a look at the mess of food, I reached my hand in to grab something. Beside me, Riku didn't even look like he was trying as he casually chewed on a pizza crust. Apparently he figured he was gonna lose, but at the moment he was beating me. I felt my hand squish into something slimy, and pulled it out to reveal a large purple stain.
"Ah, gross!"
"Gross is right!" added Sora between bites. "I don't know where your hands have been, now you have to eat that whole pie yourself!"
"Say what?!" I shouted. Not only did I not want to be in this stupid competition, but now I had to eat an entire pie to myself?!
"Better dig in or Riku might actually beat you!" said Terra, reaching for the cheese round. To restate what I said earlier, ew.
But he was right; I hadn't eaten anything, where Riku had now eaten a whole two and a half pizza slices. I wasn't paying attention to Ven, and it was impossible to count how much Terra and Sora had gone through with the naked eye. I already had a blue hand, so it couldn't really get any more embarrassing than this, right?
Wrong. By the time all the food was gone, my entire mouth, nose, cheeks, neck, and bits of my chest were blue from the pie. I don't know if I was more disgusted with my own eating habits, or the knowledge that Sora had consumed the entire cake and countless burgers. Actually, scratch that, the fact that Terra had eaten thirteen slices of pizza, six burgers, and the entire round of cheese was definitely more disgusting. Boy, he was gonna have a nice after-school number two…
Despite the fact that he's a known pig, Ven was completely clean save for a few sub sandwich crumbs on his shirt. Riku, understandably, had no mess anywhere near him, having only eaten three pieces of pizza. Actually, now that I looked at them all, I was probably the messiest one out of all of us. I could feel my face turning red as a few girls walked by and laughed. Great, I was covered in blue and my face was turning red…
"Hehe, hey, that's a good look for you, Roxas," came a voice from behind me. I guess they saw me spilling pie all over myself…
"Tidus! When did you guys get here?" Sora said as he rubbed his belly.
"Just a few minutes ago. We didn't want to interrupt your game thing since we're not part of it."
"THEY WHAT?!" I screamed at my food-pregnant companions. "YOU SAID YOU'D DO HORRIBLE, EMBARRASSING THINGS TO ME IF I DIDN'T JOIN!"
"Ehehe, right," Sora laughed sheepishly, "I guess you could've opted out, but now that you're in, we actually will do horrible, embarrassing things to you if you don't participate."
I would've buried my face in my hands if they weren't completely stained blue. Figuring that this shirt was useless for the time being, I stripped it off and began wiping down my face.
"Ooh, stud alert!" giggled a girl.
Oh, right, there are girls behind me. I could feel my face starting to burn scarlet again, and the wolf whistles weren't helping. I guess they all decided that teaming up on me was the best course of action.
"I call dibs!" said a different girl.
"No way, Rikku, I saw him first!"
"Selphie, please, he wouldn't go for someone like you!"
"You bitch!"
"Come on, you guys, don't fight about this! After all, I seem the most like his type."
"Yuna!"
"Yes, Tidus?"
"…Ehehe… nevermind…"
I don't know how I wasn't passing out from all the blood rushing to my head, but rest assured, I was incredibly embarrassed; so much to the point where I was rooted to the spot. As much as I wanted to go get my PE shirt from my locker, that would mean either being the topless lost boy walking around the crowded halls or the lost blueberry-stained shirt boy walking around the crowded halls. No matter what I chose, the result would be getting lost.
"Psh, don't look so embarrassed, bro, they're joking!" laughed Ven. "They've never made a fuss like that when I go without a shirt!"
"Yeah, because you're fat, Ven!" shouted the girl I think was Selphie.
"Ouch, rude much?" he feigned offense.
"Uh, Sora," I said while the others bickered about me, "mind helping me find my locker again?"
"Oooh, I'll help!" said a more upbeat girl, who I think was Rikku.
"Th-that's okay, really!" I stuttered, covering my exposed front with the shirt. "Sora knows where it is anyway."
Before I even knew what was happening, someone grabbed me by the wrist and hurried me away from them. I could see them still arguing, but now Ven and Sora were both staring after me with mixed expressions of disbelief and jealousy. I looked to my wrist and followed the arm up to see Aqua dragging me away while Kairi led the way.
"W-what are you guys doing?"
"Ugh, it's our fault for letting you get involved in that stupid game in the first place," Aqua said apologetically.
"Yeah, the least we can do is help you find your locker before Selphie, Rikku, and Yuna start giving you a hard time," said Kairi. "Good thing Paine's not here. She wouldn't compliment you; rather, she'd probably tear your self-esteem apart."
Yeesh, they certainly had a diverse group from the sounds of it. I didn't realize how air-conditioned the school was, but, man, it was freezing without a shirt on. I was getting pretty embarrassed that my muscles were tensing up from the cold, and the fact that my skin was turning a bit pink while I was being shirtlessly led away by two, admittedly, attractive girls was not a good way to keep a low profile on the first day as the new kid.
"Damn, Ven, looking good!" shouted a random girl in the hallway.
"That's not Ven, that's his brother, Roxas!" said another girl who was in my PE class.
"Yeah, Ven's too fat to look that hot!" giggled another in their little group.
I couldn't help but snicker at the fact that everyone thought Ven was fat. At least they could tell me apart in some way. However, the comments didn't make me feel any less embarrassed and I heard them giggle even more as my face turned red.
"Here we are, Roxas," said Kairi when we got to my locker. Sora must've told them where it was at some point because I certainly hadn't told them.
"Thanks, I, uh, appreciate you guys doing this for me."
"Oh, it's no trouble," Aqua said sweetly, "and you don't have to worry about continuing their dumb game, we'll keep you safe now."
I know she meant well, but that hurt my pride. I mean, it was a stupid competition and everything, but it was almost as if she was trying to get me to stay in it by saying that. It all came down to what was the least humiliating choice, doing stupid competitions or being 'kept safe' from a couple of girls. Ugh, sometimes life puts you in tough positions.
"Whew, looking good, Roxas," called a girl passing by; I think she was in my PE class, Shiki or something. The Neku guy she was with didn't look too pleased, but that didn't really bother me, Shiki's pretty cute.
Alright, well if this stupid competition was going to end with cute girls telling me how hot I was while also laughing about my brother's weight, then I suppose I could stay in it a little longer.
"Thanks, guys, but I think I can handle it for a little while. Maybe I'll opt out of the ones I don't wanna do."
"Suit yourself," they said and shrugged while I quickly pulled on my PE shirt. The sweat from earlier had dried, and luckily it didn't smell like BO, so I was in the clear.
By the time we got back outside, a bunch of people were staring in the area where our group had been. I could hear laughter every once in a while, but wasn't able to see. Lightly pushing my way through the crowd, I had to hold in my own laughter at the sight that I was met with.
"Do I even need to ask?" I said as Riku shuffled up to me with his pants around his ankles.
"They're making me walk around like this until the end of lunch period…" he sighed, turning away from me. "At least boxers are like shorts, but I'm also supposed to go talk to random people…"
"H-have fun with that," I stuttered in an attempt to contain my chuckles. He grit his teeth, but didn't say anything more to me.
Aqua, Kairi, and I laughed as we walked back towards our recently sighted group. Ven and Sora seemed to be in better spirits now that their kind-of-girlfriends had returned. I couldn't deny that seeing such a serious, mature guy like Riku awkwardly walking up to strangers with his pants around his ankles was pretty funny sight.
"Guys, watch this," said Sora as he snuck around by Riku.
He walked around with his finger at his lips to make sure everyone was silent. Man, this was just like a comedy show. The crowd did their best to suppress their giggles as Sora went behind Riku and motioned his hands in a downward pulling motion. A bunch of people nodded, and Riku didn't suspect a thing since he was currently trying to make conversation with a stranger. In one quick motion, Sora exposed Riku's bare buttocks to the crowd, with his man parts facing the stranger in front of him.
"What the- SORA, YOU LITTLE SHIT! I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" cried the red-faced, silver-haired teen as he pulled up his boxers and pants in a flash. A few whistles and a whole lot of laughs went around the crowd as Riku gained on the hysterical spike-head.
"Well, Roxas," Ven said as he wiped away mirthful tears from laughing, "not so bad for a first day at school, huh?"
I was laughing pretty hard myself, "I c-can't say I was expecting to see someone lose their pants on the first day, but yeah, it's been pretty good!"
Other than Sora getting nearly strangled to death by Riku, the rest of lunch went on without much drama. Well, okay, I suppose after the whole shirtless thing I had to deal with Selphie, Rikku, and Yuna hitting on me for the rest of it, but I wasn't complaining. Tidus certainly seemed upset by Yuna's antics, though.
After lunch Ven and I headed off to music. Our schedules said 'von Muir, Edward' as the teacher. Ven told me that this guy was a retired accomplished harp player for some philharmonic orchestra. Sounded a little intimidating, but the two of us were pretty good singers, and we were prepared to prove it.
Music went by pretty quickly. Turns out that Mr. von Muir is actually really nice, and he got us all to do some singing games to help everyone feel more comfortable singing around each other.
"Oh my god, you guys sound just like Jesse McCartney!" a few girls squealed as we headed out of the room. Oddly enough, that isn't the first time we'd been told that…
Man, to think I didn't like the idea of public school this morning, and now I already had fangirls flocking around me over my body and voice. Honestly, the longer I stay here, the less I miss Twilight Academy. Of course, I wish that I could still hang out with my old friends, but everyone here seemed nice enough. I'm almost certain that Ven was kidding about the whole on my own thing after a few weeks; at least, I hope he's kidding…
"See ya, Roxas!" Ven said as he headed off towards his last class of the day.
I waved and set out in the direction he told me to go in. Huh, maybe it was just in the early morning that Ven acted like an asshole, because he certainly seemed more brotherly now. Either that or he realized that he would have to put up with me for the next two years, so he may as well make the most of it. Regardless, I was just glad he wasn't acting like a total douche nozzle.
"Roxas, over here!" Aqua waved to me when I got into the classroom.
"Hey, Aqua," I said, taking the seat beside her. It took me a moment to realize something odd about her presence. "Say, isn't this a grade eleven history course? You're in grade twelve, aren't you?"
"Yeah, but I'm actually not a student for this class," she said flatly. "I'm a peer tutor. I don't know if you noticed, but every class has at least one of us. Peer tutoring's a grade twelve class, so there's only so many places we can be."
"Ah, that makes more sense. Now that you mention it, there was some guy named Demyx helping out in our music class. He's kind of awkward, but he seemed to know his way around a sitar."
Aqua gave me a weird look at the mention of Demyx's name, but was otherwise unfazed. When the teacher walked in the room, she quickly got up to help him sort through a bunch of papers and stuff that he was going to hand out.
"Um, excuse me," said a soft voice from beside me, "is anyone sitting here?"
I turned to see a sweet-looking girl with short black hair and sparkling blue eyes. Geez, this school has no shortage of attractive girls, that's for sure. Her lips were curled up in a small smile, and she kind of reminded me of Kairi if said girl had short black hair. Somewhere in the back of my mind, a weird sense of déjà vu was going off as if I'd heard that before, but nothing came to mind. Either way, the seat on my left was free since Aqua was sitting on my right.
"N-no, go ahead," I said so that she could put her things down.
"Thanks," she replied as she set her bag on the floor and took a seat.
"I'm Roxas by the way. Roxas Destati."
"Ah, yes, my friend told me about you. He said that you were the champion in his PE class this morning! Apparently you pummeled your brother," she giggled. Damn, she was cute. "Oh, where are my manners, I'm Xion. Xion Oni."
"Nice to meet you, Xion," I said, shaking her hand. Wow, that seems really formal for a teen to do, but she didn't seem to mind.
"So, Roxas, where'd you used to go to school before this?"
"Oh, I used to go to Twilight Academy. I'm not sure why, but my mom decided to pull me out and transfer here. Moms can be weird sometimes."
"I wish I knew…" she said before fading out a bit.
Oh crap, did I hit a nerve there? Dammit, I didn't think I could ruin a potentially new friendship so quickly! Fffffuuuuuuuu-
"Sorry, I zoned out there for a second," she said just as sweetly as before. Huh? "Yeah, sometimes I get need a second when people talk about their parents. I never knew mine, but I'm okay now. Anyway, Twilight Town, huh? That's pretty neat, my friend and I used to live there before we both ended up moving here. Funny how that works out, hey?"
Whoa, whoa, whoa, this girl just had a minor depression setback over the loss of her parents, but she can jump back into it just like that? I don't know whether I should be impressed or pity the poor thing. Well, it doesn't really sound like she wants to dwell on the subject too long.
"Yeah, what a coincidence. Does your other friend go here?"
"The one from Twilight Town? Yeah, she's a real art nut though, so she spends a lot of her time in the art room. I'll introduce her to you sometime. Friends help friends make more friends, right?"
Aside from the overuse of the word 'friends' I could completely agree with what she just said. Wait, she already considered me a friend? I'm not complaining since she seems like a sweetheart, but usually people aren't so open-minded. Well, if she wanted to consider me a friend, then I would definitely accept this new friendship. Her offer seemed genuine, and I could feel warm fuzzies in my stomach.
My friend, Xion. Has a nice ring to it.
I had a lot of fun writing this chapter, especially the competition section and all the girls calling out how hot Roxas is. Initially I was going to make a guy say it too, but then I scrapped the idea when I realized it would just look like I was copying Redeeming Endeavor's work. The last thing I want to be seen as is a plagiarist or someone who can't make up their own ideas, no matter how small they are.
I made Xion's last name Oni because Noi doesn't really sound like a name, even though it does follow the Nobodies' other name thing that I'm doing for all the Organization XIII members. And on the topic of last names, Mr. the Wise (Ansem, if for some odd reason you didn't figure it out) was originally just Mr. Wise, but I didn't want people to be confused as to who he was supposed to be. True, it makes his last name seem weird, but that's what the little note beside it was for :P
