| Awaken..
..it's a new day.
--♦♦♦-- Xion wandered the sunny streets of Radiant Gardens, seeing what there was to see and sights and sounds and smelling the breeze that carries the scent of growing and blossoming flowers and plants. She had rarely looked to roam from the Castle, having wanted to stay close to Even, and learn the answers to things that had yet to be found. Today, however, she wasn't looking for answered, she was looking for exploration and new discoveries. Curiosity was a main part of her mindset, and it was often so hard to ignore. So today she had followed her urge to wander and explore without any sort of real aim or purpose.
Not wanting to have bothered Even, Xion had merely slipped away from her room and made her way to the streets of the city. She had spotted vendors and shop people getting ready to set up for the day, and so she had found a place to sit and watch the sun move in the sky while she waited for things to get busy and people to come out. This had given her plenty of time to reflect on things, in fact. Ever since she had mysteriously awakened here and encountered Even, who had seemed completely surprised that she was here, as she in turn had been surprised to find that 'the end' she had expected turned out not to be the end. But why? Why was she back? And what were these feelings she had come to view Even with? It was almost like, how one would feel with family..was that right? She wasn't sure that was the correct description, but then, some feelings couldn't be explained or defined in any sort of way. She wondered if Even felt anything like that for her, but she supposed it might or might not be the same. Besides, if he hadn't wanted her around, surely he would have just sent her on her way and ignored her pleas for help. In fact, he had seemed quite concerned and had brought her with him back to the castle. If he didn't care, he wouldn't have done that either, right?
It was all confusing and yet at the same time parts of it made sense, but didn't? Shrugging, Xion had climbed down from her perch on a wall to go and see what vendors had set up by now. The first thing that caught her eye was a vendor selling a most beloved and familiar treat: Sea-Salt Ice-cream. She would dig in her pocket for the little munny she carried with her and purchased a stick of her favorite frozen snack. The sun was just beginning to really make things warm up, so she walked and licked her ice-cream, wondering what else she might find to get into.
So many shops, so many streets to follow, people here and there all around. Yes, today was going to be a great day for exploring.. She could feel it.

[attr="class","burst"] [attr="class","whitenight"] ❝ Rina smiled as she handed back some change to her customer and waved them goodbye. Today had been a good day for being a merchant. She had sold all of her wares and had made a great profit. Now that she was all out of items to sale, she began to pack up her kiosk. As she was doing so, something off caught her eye.
Today was an absolutely gorgeous and sunny day. It was also hotter than the pits of Hades. Rina had already put her long black hair up into a ponytail and had shed her signature jacket. It was so hot. The thing that caught her eye though, was a petite girl walking around the marketplace. She wasn’t entirely out of place except for the fact that she was wearing a BLACK, LEATHER, FULL LENGTH COAT! What in the world is she doing!? Isn’t she melting?! Rina was intrigued by this girl. It wasn’t the first time she had encountered someone with a coat like that before. Were they a part of some group? Hmm.
Her curiosity got the better of her and she lifted her hand in a wave and hollered out to the girl. “H-hey! You in the coat!”

| Awaken..
..it's a new day.
--♦♦♦-- Taking a bite of the sweet, salty, delicious frozen treat, Xion savored the coolness of the ice-cream and its unique taste that could only be found in this particular snack. The sun was high in the sky, yes, and the heat was rather warm, but it wasn't bothering her, despite the cloak she was wearing. It didn't really come to mind that the cloak might be uncomfortable, she had been so used to wearing it. Besides, she had been in much hotter places.
As she wandered, she noticed that many of the people here wore different clothes, but she supposed that was in their nature and something they personally chose. She didn't really have that sort of variety in clothing; in fact, really the only things she had to wear were her everyday outfit. And the cloak. She wondered if there were places that sold such things, surely there had to be, if so many people could have so many different kinds?
As she took another bite of her ice-cream to save it from melting, she heard a voice, louder than the rest. At first she didn't react, thinking it was one of the vendors or someone yelling to someone they knew. However, when it seemed they had not reached the person they were calling to, Xion looked around when the call continued. There was a girl about her height standing not too far away, apparently calling to her. She blocked, and waved, though she was pretty sure she didn't know this person. She wondered if they may have mistaken her for someone else; but who else would wear the cloak? Unless....
No, that wasn't possible. The others should have been gone, or supposedly become their Somebody forms again if Even was any clue to that. Unless... unless the Organization was back...? She shook her head at these thoughts. It was impossible, it had to be. Walking toward the one who had been yelling, Xion tilted her head curiously, studying the other girl.
"Sorry, were you calling me? I'm not sure you've got the right person; if you were meaning to call one of your friends, that is?"

[attr="class","burst"] [attr="class","whitenight"] ❝ Rina waved at the girl, once she saw that she had caught her attention. As she came closer, Rina could make out more of her features than just that blazing black coat. The girl was petite like herself and had a cute bob of black hair and bright blue eyes. She looked like a really nice person.
The stranger made her way to Rina’s booth, seeming to be confused that Rina had hailed her over. “No, no. I was calling out for you. You’re not from around here, are you?” Rina gestured to the girl’s black coat. “You kinda stick out a little for one thing. And aren’t your uncomfortable with the heat? I know I would be.”
Rina offered her hand out to the girl. “My name is Rina.”

| Awaken..
..it's a new day.
--♦♦♦-- As she came closer to the other girl, who introduced herself as Rina, Xion thought that the other was rather pretty, a petite female with attractive features and a friendly outgoing attitude and seemed to be familiar with the place and people. Surprisingly, she had been calling to Xion. A warm feeling filled Xion, lifting her spirits. Even though she didn't know this Rina, she seemed to know no strangers and was friendly to Xion in a way that Xion had really only seen with friends; though Xion had had little experience with the entirety of the 'friends' scenarios/ideas, as she had really only hung out with two. But she supposed that there were people who were just friendly in general, with no real direct or intended attachment specified. It was an intriguing idea. After all, she had made friends with Ventus, right? It wasn't impossible to believe that one could have more than two friends. In fact, it seemed that others could do so...
At the mention of sticking out, Xion looked at her cloak in a slight sense of dismay and at the same time consideration. It hadn't really occurred to her that her cloak might be strange or odd, or give her away in a crowd of people; looking around at some of the locals, Xion realized that Rina was correct, in a way. She did indeed stand out in a long black coat while most of those around her wore lighter, colorful clothing, which seemed to give them more freedom in movement and selection of attire. She looked back to Rina, hesitantly brushing raven bangs away from her blue eyes.
"I..never really noticed. Is this a bad thing? I've just gotten used to wearing this cloak; I've not really had a chance to wear much else. Or a need, either. Huh...I just..never thought about it, I guess."
She runs her hand over her hair in an almost distracted, self-conscious way, looking around the stall that Rina had set up; it's clear that the people like buying from her, as it looks like everything had sold. She notices that Rina had offered a hand upon introduction, and she belatedly grasps it, though she isn't really sure what to do with the hand offered. She did, however, know what when one is given a name, it's usually proper to return the greeting.
"Rina? I'm Xion..it is nice to meet you.. You seem like a very friendly person."
A shy but genuine smile is offered after the statement, and she lets go of the hand that was given.

[attr="class","burst"] [attr="class","whitenight"] ❝ Rina smiled at young girl in front of her. She was probably a teenager, but she had a cuteness, and innocence that you usually saw in children. There was something bright about the girl. That was all she could think of. She was bright, like she had stardust in her soul. So full of light. As she began to straighten her hair and her clothes, questioning what was wrong with them Rina shook her head. “No, no. There’s nothing wrong with your outfit. It’s just a little…different. Different isn’t bad. It just doesn’t seem very comfortable with this kind of weather we’ve been having.”It was then that she and the girl noticed that her hand was still extended, and the girl clasped it, but didn’t seem to realize she could shake it. Rina giggled and gently patted her hand as her new friend introduced herself. Her name was Xion. How pretty of a name. The compliment that Xion gave her warmed her heart. “Nice to meet you, Xion. Now let’s see about getting you some new clothes.” | [attr="class","white"] [attr="class","night"] [attr="class","burstmini"] Xion[attr="class","burstmini"]@someone2 [attr="class","burstmini"]000 words [attr="class","burstmini"]notes: This box will expand if you are going to write more, but try to keep it short.

| Awaken..
..it's a new day.
--♦♦♦-- She was relieved that Rina didn't think she was odd, or at least say as much, about her way of handling the handshake/greeting. She really hadn't done anything like that before, so it was a new thing. But next time she would know, she hoped. Putting the thought away for later, Xion smiled in relief when Rina said that there wasn't anything wrong with what she was wearing; however, Xion did have to agree with the other girl. She really was rather out of place, and the cloak did make things kind of warm. But it was really the only thing she had to wear outside in all kinds of weather. It did fair enough in keeping the elements at bay so she hadn't thought much about changing it for something else.
She saw a shine in Rina's eyes, a sparkle that seemed to light up everything. She seemed so warm and cheerful and friendly; it was no wonder her merchandise was sold out. She drew people in, with that kind personality. She wondered if she could ever be like Rina, so outgoing and friendly and happy as she seemed.
Her attention is caught by Rina's next words, however. New clothes? Where did one get such things? She knew there were probably shops and stuff where people might get clothing or things like that but she had never really thought about it much, simple satisfied to walk around in her black outfit. But maybe, a change of clothing wouldn't be so bad. After all, she could wear the cloak when she went other places, or in the weather. Nobody had said she couldn't have other clothes.. At least, not that she remembered. It would be a silly thing to think someone would only allow a black outfit, right?
"So you..are going to help me, then? I'm not sure I've ever bought clothes before, are they expensive? How do you know what to wear? Where do you go?."
She checked her pocket munny as she asked, hoping she had enough for whatever this might turn into. The idea of shopping with Rina, however, seemed like it might be fun. At least she would be with someone who knew what they were doing.

Rina grinned widely and nodded as Xion asked if Rina was going to help her. “Of course, I will! And don’t worry about the munny.” Rina reached over her booth and touched Xion’s elbow. “This one will be on me. I’ll teach you all you need to know about fashion!”Okay. To be honest, Rina didn’t really know that much about fashion. She practically wore an assortment of variations of the same outfit. She had her own style. But maybe just by showing the girl the ropes she would be able to formulate her own beautiful look. Rina gestured around the marketplace. “There’s a couple of merchants around here that sell and make clothing. We can look around if you’d like.” Rina took in Xion’s form for a moment noting how they were nearly about the same size. “If you don’t see anything you like, I may have something at my house that may do.”

--♦♦♦-- Xion smiled warmly at the other, her shy smile brightened and reassured by Rina's cheerful attitude and positive energy. She was glad to have made a new friend (she hoped). She was still getting used to the whole 'friend' thing, even though she had had two friends before and that had seemed okay. But she knew them. Maybe this was just a thing people did, making friends. She almost rolled her eyes at herself; it seemed so.. underdeveloped? to be thinking like this still but it was between what she knew and what didn't know. Rina's touch was a friendly connection, encouraging in its gesture, at least to Xion. Xion's blue eyes almost sparkled with hope and a newfound happiness. A new friendship, yes?
"You will? You don't mind? I don't want to be a bother if you have things to do, I know people commonly have lots to do."
She was surprised by the offer to pay, and she shook her head, hoping to spare Rina the need to pay for her.
"Oh! No, I have munny, I don't want you to have to pay for me! I just, don't know what to get or anything. I bet that's pretty silly, huh?
Xion grinned a bit, seeming a bit uncertain but definitely glad to have made Rina's acquaintance.

Rina shook her head at the girl’s questions. “Don’t worry about me. I had a good turnout earlier, so I’ve made my profit for the day. I can take off early.” The older girl winked at the younger one and began to slip her unsold wares into a satchel. “And don’t worry. You’re feelings aren’t silly. Sometimes it takes some time to figure out what one likes in life. Clothing and style is the same way. We’ll find something that suits you perfect, Xion.” Rina slung the satchel over her head to rest on her shoulder and pointed out one of the stalls further across the market. “We could start there if you’d like. She sells cute outfits, but they can be pricey. I can cover the price if you need me to. I don’t mind!” Rina beamed. This day was turning out different than she had expected it to, but Rina was happy with the outcome. She was making a friend and helping her out. “I’m ready when you are!”

--♦♦♦-- She smiled brightly, nodding to Rina and looking around, before offering to help carry the things that Rina was taking with her. She didn't want her to be carrying everything because she had to; isn't that what friends did, after all? They helped out. She still wasn't sure about Rina paying for things, but that could be discussed when they got where they were going.
She hurried to catch up with Rina, feeling a growing excitement. This might just be an exciting adventure.
"I'll follow your lead, then. Thank you!"

------------------------------- An hour or so later, both girls seemed to be heavily laden with shopping bags and Rina's stomach was starting to growl. It was time for lunch! "Xion I don't know about you, but these bags are getting heavy and I'm getting hungry." Rina shifted a bag from one hand to the other to prove her point. "We could drop these off at my house and then go search for some lunch. How does that sound?" Rina's house was only a short walk from the marketplace. Not only could they get a short break from the heat, Rina might even had had enough ingredients in her pantry to make lunch if Xion wanted. "We can do whatever you like, Xion." Xion
