Their gloves were a complete and utter mess—coated in dark brown stains, covered in white globs and strings, sprinkled with golden brown flecks. The sugary smell of it all permeated the black leather.

Xion kept her gloves on, choosing instead to lick and suck the remnants of their endeavor in creating s'mores. The movements were deliberate and punctuated with audible slurps and pops, cadenced with self-satisfied moans. Her state of euphoria was complete with her darkened eyes under lowered lids and accented by her flushed cheeks.

Grabbing his gloves and stalking into the tree line, Riku stated he'd be at the nearby stream washing his soiled gloves. Left unsaid was the possibility that he might join his gloves in hopes of cleansing his mind of its own impurities.

His turned back completely shielded Xion from his flushed face.

Unfortunately, it also masked the sly grin that curled Xion's lips as she took in the form of his retreating back.

Amatus SO called this. I hope you're enjoying my head canon. Congrats on the caramel/vanilla marshmallows. I definitely need to get my hands on some. And no worries about what to call me; I'm very flattered that you consider me the Kingdom Hearts of sweethearts, though. Thank you so much for brightening up my day with that and for another wonderful review.

Next Time: After a what seems like forever, I give Xion the spotlight again.
