Good morning frens! This one is a direct reference to a TikTok meme, but I think you can get it even without knowing the meme
Without further ado... here come the fiiiic! (haha get it?)
Roxas woke up to Axel filming him from a corner of his room with his phone. Again. At this point, he wasn't even sure if he should be angry, tired, or just burn the bloody device, but he was starting to consider option number three as the best one so far.
Ienzo (it was hard for Roxas not to call him Zexion, but he understood this meant a lot to the scientist) had given each one of them a wonder of technology that he called a Gummi Phone. Roxas didn't really do technology, and so he used it mostly to pick up calls, or to call people by mistake when the phone was once again unlocked in his pocket. Axel, on the other hand…
The young man had very quickly understood how exactly this thing worked. And how to install new junk on it. He had more games than he could ever play, thousands of apps Roxas wasn't even sure the purpose was, billions of filters to get dog ears or to puke rainbows (Roxas was really confused about that one, why would anyone want a filter of being sick?), and the worst of them all… The clock app. Axel said it was called TikTok, and proceeded to show Roxas mildly interesting videos of people dancing, telling jokes, or whispering into their microphones in a very uncomfortable way. He had tried to explain the whole concept of "memes" to the blonde boy who wasn't even interested in the first place. And now, he has decided to make Roxas "TikTok famous" without even asking for his permission.
So when Roxas stepped into the kitchen, and Xion looked at him with a "awww", her own phone in hand, Roxas knew there was some trouble around.
"Go for it. Show me whatever he did this time." He sighed, taking the phone Xion handed him, sitting in front of a mug of hot chocolate. He would need it.
"Here comes the boy…" The voice singing on the video was very soft, and the video opened on Roxas sleeping soundly, with a soft light filter and sparkles everywhere.
"Hello boy!" More clips of Roxas sleeping, yawning, brushing his teeth. All clips taken without his permission or knowledge. A very cute compilation of Axel basically stalking him.
"Here comes the boy! Hello Boy!" This time, the call wasn't from the video, but from Axel looking at him with a grin. He ruffled Roxas's and Xion's hair before sitting next to them. "Ah, Roxas, I see you watched my latest creation! There's one million views already, how cool is that?"
"You mean there's a million person who watched clips of me sleeping?"
"Yeah, that's awesome, I know!"
"That's… creepy."
But Axel just laughed it off, shrugging. "You're so cute, I want to share that with everyone!"
"Axel, for the hundredth time…"
Axel looked at him with pleading puppy eyes, and Roxas sighed. "Please ask before filming. And show me before posting. If you do that, I won't mind being featured on some videos. Deal?"
Axel nodded frenetically. "I promise! I didn't want to cross you, I just want to share my happiness of having you both by my side that I… Do you want me to take them down? Ask and I will, I swear."
Roxas sighed. "That's fine. Keep them online if you'd like. I don't care. But next time…"
"I know, I know! Sincerest apologies, buddy!"
Xion started laughing as Axel was bowing on repeat as an apology, and soon Roxas started laughing too. Even though Axel was annoying sometimes, it felt good for them to be back together, and Roxas didn't mind putting up with a bit of "memes" if that was the price to pay for their shared happiness.
Please don't upload pictures or vids of people without their consent, people.
Next up is "good soup"! (because soup is good)
