Someone is not amused by this crap.

Who: Roxas and anyone that feels like helping him vent
What: He's not happy about seemingly being skipped for getting a power back.
Where: Rec Deck
When: Noonish
Warnings: Violence, potentially language

If anyone was looking for Roxas at the moment, they'd find him on the rec deck pounding the stuffing out of a dummy with a couple of wooden swords. Some of his frustration is over things going on back home. But, some of it is about how it seems like he's been screwed out of having any powers this week while everyone else seems to have gotten at least one back.

Sudden headcanon is go, sorry.^^;;;

"Right." Xion wasn't really that invested in the wager. She just remembered a few times they'd made similar bets regarding who finished their mission first or who collected the most hearts. The main goal right now was to practice and help Roxas let off some steam.

Xion managed to block the move, then countered with a combo of her own. Considering that they'd developed a lot of their techniques together, and practiced together, landing a hit could be difficult. Not that that mattered at the moment.

Xion had only ever used one weapon, so there was nothing different there. Getting used to a sword again after nearly a week of using the Keyblade, however, was strange. Well, she could use this chance to become reacquainted with what she would have to work with after the week was over.

No, she wasn't going to have an easy time hitting him. He dodged all but the last swing of the combo, which he blocked instead, and retaliated with a quick diagonal swing that he pretty much expected to be either dodged or blocked. If it connected, he might move into a combo. If not, he was open for a counterattack.

Once consolation was that he'd have a hard time hitting her as well. Instinctively jumping out of strike range after he block helped her dodge his swing. Once clear, she took the opening to try another combo.

That was more or less expected. He took a couple hits, blocked the third and jumped back a bit to get some distance. Wooden swords were safer for sparring, yes, but there still tended to be some bruises. On the other hand, that was just fine. It pulled him in a little more and got his mind off of some of the crap that was bothering him, if only because thinking of it while sparring would only lead to a very decisive butt kicking.

He back off a bit, taking a more defensive stance. Defense wasn't exactly a strong suit for him and he knew he needed to work on it. He would wait this time, try the block and counter again see if maybe a faster reaction time on his counter might make get him somewhere.

Losing focus would definitely be a bad idea, because as familiar with each others' styles as they were, they still needed to pay attention in order to block or dodge correctly. Fortunately since they were using wooden swords, a hit didn't result in anything worse than a bruise so long as they were careful. When he jumped back, she took a step back herself, the better to evaluate the situation.

It looked like she was on the offensive again. She needed to practice her defense, too--maybe they'd just end up taking turns. That wouldn't be bad. Deciding to give the combos a break for now, she aimed a blow to his side.
