Hello there, I'm late, sorry but here a stupid prompt, with a stupid joke (but I love it anyway so please don't judge me too much... Oh well you can if you want !). I'm so in love with this two cinamon rolls so I wanted to write something funny about them, hope you will like it ! Again, thank you Ejes for your amazing work, be sure to check her prompts... and her note at the end of the chapter !


"Why isn't Roxas back yet?"

Axel was pretty sure he did not ask for something that complicated. The two friends had decided it was time to try new food, rather than sticking to the sea-salt ice-cream.

This time, it was Roxas's turn to go buy something – however, he had had no idea. His amnesia was probably to blame. The red head had thought in his stead, something cheap and easy to find here in Twilight Town

"How about a bunch of dates?"

At this time of the year, the fruits should be sold at ever stall, the number thirteen would easily find some. The abundance of it even made it pretty cheap, and working in the Organization often meant being quite wary about your munnies.

"It's been like two hours. Something must have happened."

Axel searched his mind, trying to find what he could have missed. Roxas had looked surprised by the request, but still went. Why would he be surprised? He probably never seen dates before. After all the things the number eight had to explain to him since he had joined the Organization, that wouldn't be really surprising.

Time went on, and after three hours, Axel decided to go and look for his friend. On his way, he met Xigbar, the number two. The red head liked him for his chill attitude at any time, but was still wary of him and his relationship with Xemnas.

"Hey, Xigbar, you wouldn't happen to have seen Roxas, would you?"

"Mh? Roxas? I think I saw him at the stationer's!"

"At the... What is he doing there?"

"No idea. Said he was looking for a calendar."

"A calendar... No way..."

"Does that mean anything to you?"

"Nothing important. Thanks, Xiggy!"

"Kids sure are weird these days."

The one-eyed man left, mumbling, while Axel ran to the stationer's. There was only one in Twilight Town, and that saved him a lot of time. He found Roxas staring at calendars, holding two different models, one with pets and one with flowers.

"Roxas, what are you doing? I've waited for three hours!"

"Oh, sorry Axel. I had troubles finding the shop, and now I'm hesitating about which model I should pick. You weren't really specific about that. These two look great, but I would never have thought you could eat them."

"Wait. What? Told you to get us some dates, not a calendar!"

"But a calendar is full of dates!"

There was a silence, then Axel exploded into laughter. It took him a while to calm down, especially when his buddy looked so discomfited.

"I didn't mean... Not these kind of dates, Roxas! Hahaha... They are... That's the name of a fruit! Got it memorized?"

"I see... Sorry Axel. I didn't know."

"Thank you so much for that, buddy. Didn't laugh that much in ages. Know what? Forget about the dates. Let's go grab something else to eat, my treat. Any idea?"

"Well, just before, I heard that old man talking about something that looked good. How did he call that... Tar... Tartiflette?"

"Well, let's find out where we can have some!"

And that's how the numbers eight and thirteen started their quest for the yummy, cheesy tartiflette. Will they find it? That is another story to tell.


Translator's note: Hi! Ejes there! I shouldn't be invading Saphir's story like that, sorry sorry. I just wanted to tell you that this is almost luck I managed to translate this. I was worried when I read it in French, because the date(fruit) is called 'datte' and the date(day) is called a 'date'. The whole plot was based on this pun, and I worried that would translate poorly into English. Luckily, you guys have the same word for both! Hurray! Also, tartiflette is a Swiss dish with potatoes and cheese and it is incredibly good. You should definitely try to have some one day. With these wise words, Ejes out!
