A sunny day, should be a good start, the man strolled around the streets hands by his sides as he went before he stopped and lit a smoke. After the 'cancer stick' was lit he started walking again. Time to relax before he had to go back to the University for classes. Not that he cared all that much really. Some classes might not even be worth taking. Now it dawned on him that he may have taken a few too many.
A sigh as he smoked without using his hands and eyed some people as they passed him by. Today his hair was up and tied back so it didn't get in the way whilst he did things. He wore a loose t-shirt, jeans and some sneakers and of course his jacket that he oh so loved to bits.
It was a tatty old thing but he refused to part with it.
Strolling along he eventually came across something that stuck out to him, his stomach gave a light growl and he put the cigarette out before he sighed and eyed the establishment. He didn't like crowds very much. He really didn't. Yet his stomach wanted something to digest.
Perhaps he should've gone to a cafe or something? That would at least provide something better food wise, oh well he liked ice cream so why not just treat himself to something? A shrug of the shoulders as he slowly pushed the door open.
Odd there was hardly anyone in here at the moment, then again it was rather early so maybe he'd picked the better time to come and roam the town? More than likely.
A shift of his gaze as he strolled inside and then stood there looking at the decor. Nothing too offensive to the eyes he supposed and that was when he headed over to the counter.
"Excuse me, I don't suppose I could trouble you for a bowl of mint choc chip ice cream please?" Manners, they didn't cost a damn thing, besides it wouldn't be nice to just come in and say what you wanted. Manners were something he was taught when he was young and they'd always stick with him now. Sometimes he wished he could just... Toss them aside.

He could remember all the times Ven had taken him and Sora to the beach during the summer months, the warm sand beneath their toes and the soft crashing of the waves against the shore. Of course, the best part was always the ice cream...cool and refreshing on a day where the low temperature was in the 90s.
The college student casually walked down the street in his black hoodie, jeans and checkered converse. The blonde was dressing simple after it...sure it was fairly nice out but it was September after all...getting closer and closer to those winter months.
With a smile on his face he stepped towards the place called 'Just Desserts' or something like that. He had heard they had pretty good ice cream, probably the best in town. Of course nothing, in his opinion, could be the ice cream in Twilight Town...well the Paopu ice cream on Destiny Islands was really good too...but his first love will always be Sea Salt Ice Cream. That blue ice cream held so many dear memories for the male, wonderful times with his cousin and brother.
The spiky haired blonde looked at the menu as some purple haired kid ordered in front of him. Hmm...now what to get? They had so many different choices! Roxas always had a bit of a sweet tooth...something he shared with his family. He stood there, deciding on some Blue Moon ice cream...normally he'd go for the Sea Salt Ice Cream of course...but this place was supposed to have really good Blue Moon...so he'd at least give it a try.
Roxas waited for the other boy to finish. When he had, the obvious thing would occur. He would smile happily at the cashier and tell her...or him...his order. It would be something like,"I'll have a scoop of Blue Moon ice cream please~ |

Aster sighed as he stood there leaning on the counter lightly, not too heavily but still just enough to support himself. After the cashier rung his order through a lighter voice came from beside him. His gaze shifted to the blonde that stood there.
"I'll have a scoop of Blue Moon ice cream please~" The order that was next after him and then the two sweet yet cold deserts were given to their respective owners. Aster arched a brow. The face seemed familiar and yet not at the same time, though he was sure if he actually knew the guy he'd have at least remembered the almost gravity defying hair. He'd need a ton of hair gel for that probably.
No doubt he probably just saw the kid around town or something like that. A happy smile on the others face and it actually brought a light smile to Aster's lips.
D'aaaawwwwww cute smile.... :3 too bad he looks too young for me, then again looks CAN be deci- what am I thinking!?!?!? A thought that briefly graced the man's mind before he shaook his head and stopped smiling going back to the usual expression he wore.
"What's that Blue Moon stuff like anyways?... I've... Never actually had it." May as well make conversation or something right? Yeah right.
"Oh by the way my name is Aster Hyperion, I attend the University around here, thought I'd seen you around so nice to meet you." Now he took the bowl he had away to a seat. Whether the other joined him or not? Well that was entirely up to them now. Maybe they'd become curious, or perhaps they might know of his bad reputation despite him being a good guy.
Once he'd sat down he took the spoon and started to eat.

It was just a minute or so before the blonde was handed his bowl of ice cream...blue in color as the name suggests. Roxas looked over at the person who had ordered before him, the man asking him a question. What was Blue Moon like? How could he describe the taste of this ice cream...it was different then some but similar to others...if that made any sense. Of course it was nothing near as good as Sea Salt Ice Cream...though nothing was to be fair.
"Um... |
[/color]" he started, looking at the smurfy blue colored ice cream. " It's kinda sweet like marshmallows and it kinda tastes like Froot Loops or Fruity Pebbles do...its really pretty good.[/color]" The blonde smiled as the blue colored ice cream sat in the bowl, spoon slicing through it to keep it upright. The other man told Roxas his name...he also apparently went to the university. Conversation was not Roxas's forte...he wasn't a social bee like his cousin Sora after all. The spiky haired blonde smiled at the new person. " Well nice to meet you then Aster, I'm Roxas...Roxas Hiroaki and I go to the university to...so thats probably why,[/color]" he said trying to be nice at least. Roxas looked around to see the place wasn't really all that packed...but the guy had already made conversation with him and sitting alone...while it normally appealed to him he wouldn't mind company while eating. It was something weird with him...eating with others was better...but in other situations he preferred to be alone...well he didn't mind a few people he knew...though most of these individuals were related to him so did that really count? Roxas sat in the seat opposite the older male. His hand lightly grabbed the plastic spoon that was put in the small plastic bowl he had gotten with his ice cream. With a small, rather elegant scoop he brought the blue ice cream to his mouth...it was heaven! The blonde smiled as he ate, looking at the ice cream the other boy had. Mint Chocolate Chip...that was his mothers favorite ice cream...apparently she had eaten it a lot while pregnant with both him and his brother...at least from what he heard of course since...well you get the idea.[/size][/div][/td][/tr][/table][/center]

NOT GONNA GET US Starting from here, let's make a promise you and me, let's just be honest we're gonna run, nothing can stop us even the night that falls all around us
words: 538 - tagged: Aster, Roxas - notes: --
It had been a pretty eventful day. Her art classes were both today, and, well, she had been late for both of them. It wasn't the best start, and the professor of her drawing class didn't take much of a liking to her at first, but as the semester went on, Texia was confident things would get better. For now, she settled with celebrating with a treat.
As a child, her parents had limited her food and dessert choices to whatever was on the menu, which only included fancy ones with names she couldn't pronounce. While they had been quite good, well, some of them at least, she still preferred regular ice cream. Granted, Texia had only had ice cream, just plain regular ice cream, only once before. And even that had been years ago. Silently, she thanked her brother for introducing her to what might as well be one of the best desserts ever created.
Soon, she found herself standing outside the place called "Just Desserts". It was a popular place for, well, desserts. She'd heard about it from a lot of the other students, and figured she might as well go try it out. Entering the shop, she went straight to the counter. She glanced at the menu and her face lit up at the sight of one flavor in particular.
"Oh! May I have a strawberry vanilla swirl ice cream with strawberry syrup, white and regular chocolate chips, and a side of gummy bears?!" she exclaimed. The cashier looked at her oddly for a moment, then silently punched in her order. Within a few minutes, Texia's ice cream was handed to her and she started to giggle out of pure enjoyment.
"It looks delicious, thank you," she said as she handed the cashier the correct amount of change. Glancing around the shop, a head of spiky hair caught her attention. Sora?! That nice boy who'd taught me about soccer!? she thought. At this, a bright smile remained on her face as she went right over to whom she assumed was the brunette she'd met earlier in the year.
Upon standing at the table, she noticed a purple haired boy there as well. But before she acknowledged him, she decided to say hi to Sora. Turning towards the other boy, she said, "Hi Sor- Wait, you're not Sora!" Her face made a puzzled expression. She was sure this boy'd been Sora! How could she have been mistaken. Staring at him closer, she realized that he was indeed, not Sora. He had blonde hair, for one, and his spikes weren't styled the same as the soccer player she knew. Glancing between the mysterious Sora-looking boy and the purple headed boy, she finally held her ice cream in one hand and stuck out her other in the direction of the blonde.
"Well, sorry for the mix up there. My name's Texia Shigura! You are?" she asked. Suddenly remembering the other boy, she quickly looked between both her hands, and decided to put her ice cream down. Holding out her hand towards the other boy, she said a similar greeting.
"Um, and you would be?"

"Um..." The darker haired man tilted his head as he waited for the blonde to carry on.
"It's kinda sweet like marshmallows and it kinda tastes like Froot Loops or Fruity Pebbles do...its really pretty good." Now Aster eyed the ice cream the blonde had, making a mental note to try that ice cream next time he decided to come for an outing here.
"Well nice to meet you then Aster, I'm Roxas...Roxas Hiroaki and I go to the university to...so thats probably why," Aster smiled right back at the blonde.
"Well who knows maybe next time I'm coming here, I'll invite you along with me. Then we can both have that blue moon ice cream." The indigo haired man stated as he nodded at Roxas. Now Aster watched as the blonde sat opposite him and started eating the ice cream.
That wasn't for very long however when Aster watched another blonde walk in and go to the counter.
"Oh! May I have a strawberry vanilla swirl ice cream with strawberry syrup, white and regular chocolate chips, and a side of gummy bears?!" Wow. That was the only word that could make any sense right now. That girl seemed to like sweets an awful lot not that Aster was going to say anything but that'd rot her teeth if she wasn't careful.
"It looks delicious, thank you," Now the girl was heading over with a bright smile on her face.
Well this is about to go to hell.... Aster's mind worked and he kept his thoughts to himself. He didn't smile at her he didn't try to be nice, he half wished he had just kept his mouth shut in the first place.
"Hi Sor- Wait, you're not Sora!" Now the girl looked confused. Oh wonderful. Aster got landed with Roxas who seemed all right and a hyper active girl. This wasn't going to be awkward for him in the least.
"Well, sorry for the mix up there. My name's Texia Shigura! You are?" He just gave an uninterested gaze as he carried on eating his ice cream. He watched as she set her ice cream down and now jutted a hand out to him so he shook it. May as well try to be friendly.
"Um, and you would be?"
"...Someone you don't know?" Okay not the best way to start off a conversation, so he shook his head, he needed to learn not to be sarcastic.
"Sorry... I'm not exactly a people person, well I can be but... Yeah it's hard to explain. I'm Aster nice to meet you. May as well sit down I guess." With that said he retracted his hand and shifted over a little so the girl could sit down next to him. After this? He went silent, instead choosing to just go back to eating his ice cream and letting Roxas and the blonde girl talk away.

In all honesty he didn't notice her enter the store, but that was more him than anything else. The spiky haired blonde took another bite of his ice cream as she came over. He heard her call him Sora...which...well they were related and did look enough alike they could pass for brothers so it was kind of understandable.
"Um...I'm Roxas...Hiroaki... |
[/color]" he said, plastic spoon in his mouth as he talked. It was pretty easy to understand why he held onto the spoon...he loved ice cream! The freshman looked at the girl as she talked with the purple haired guy...um...he'd already forgotten his name...it started with an S right? Roxas had a few questions...even though he was by far not a very social creature he was curious to how this girl knew Sora...hopefully she wasn't one of the fangirls. He had enough of that in high school being mistaken for Ven...or being used to get to Ven. " Um...so how do you know Sora?[/color]" he questioned. With that question, he took another spoonful of ice cream to his lips. The cold sensation made his nose scrunch up a little bit...brain freeze. The blonde pinched the area where his sinuses met his nose...well where the pain was. With a quick time lapse it vanished...staving off the need for lots of ice cream shoveling.

NOT GONNA GET US Starting from here, let's make a promise you and me, let's just be honest we're gonna run, nothing can stop us even the night that falls all around us
words: 448 - tagged: Aster, Roxas - notes: --
As she inquired on their identities, the purple haired boy answered first. Someone she didn't know? Well, if she'd known him, why would she ask him who he was? Oh, maybe he'd misunderstood her question? Of course he would!Texia realized she hadn't even specified what she meant by "who he was". She really should think a little more before she spoke. This would mean a bit more practice talking, and learning about what to and to not say. However, before she could clarify what she meant, he seemed to understand what she was talking about. Hm, if he wasn't a people person, then perhaps that's why he didn't realize what she meant. Maybe he didn't know people's reactions that well either, like her.
"Oh, well that's okay. It's nice to meet you anyways, Aster." He then moved over, and she had to assume it meant he wanted her to sit down next to him. If not, well, all he had to do was say so.
Taking a seat, the Sora look-alike began to introduce himself as well. His name was Roxas Hiroaki, it seemed, not Sora Hiroaki. Maybe they were related? "They had to be," she reasoned with herself. "They shared the same last name, so they have to be related... Right? Oh, I should probably ask before I start assuming things." Before she could open her mouth, she heard Roxas talk again. How did she know Sora? Putting on a smile, she happily answered.
"Oh, Sora, I met him when I was going on a small walk one day. I sw him playing soccer, so I got curious and soon we started talking. Then, he actually offered to teach me how to play soccer, since I didn't really know how before. but now I do and that's how we met. He beat me in our match though..." she said, somewhat downcast, but she brightened up right away again. Sora said he was a pro at soccer, and she'd get another rematch with him sometime, right?
Introductions all said and done, Texia focused on her ice cream again. It looked so good! Grabbing her spoon and taking a scoop of it, she immediately put it in her mouth. It tasted even better than it looked!
"This is so good! Even better than the first one I had, although that one was just regular vanilla, and years ago too. Strawberry makes everything taste much better," she said. With that, she began eating again, popping a gummy bear in as well every now and again.
