Test Drive #3
Lightning Crash
The weather over the floating island of Ascelion during spring months is best described as "hellacious"; its elevation puts it right among the worst of stormclouds and fuels their thunderous fire as they sweep past it and electrically scrape against its sides. Rain is frequent, but lightning is almost constant, along with thunderous rumbles that roll across the city and the open spaces of the Magicademy like waves.
But today is particularly bad. Webs of electricity crackle through the sky, jumping from cloud to cloud or grounding themselves on towers of the Magicademy angrily. None of them seem to endanger the students, but there's a first time for everything, isn't there? As titanic fury threatens to tear the sky in half, do you risk stepping into the outside? Does the infrasonic rumbling trigger fear or terror in your gut, as such deep waves are known to do? Perhaps you've learned a spell that will protect you. Or perhaps you've poorly learned a spell that may or may not protect you...
Wand Wrong Way
The rumors around campus speak of a small and musty store deep in the Merchant District, on a side road to a side road, where only those in-know go to find items that would surely draw too much notice if displayed publicly. Powdered dragon tail, eye of sphinx, swords Forged with magic-cutting spells, and most valuable of all, the Gateway Wand. Surely this legendary wand, in which the full power of Sundering hums, could get you and your friends back home.
Rumors are pretty lousy with directions, though. The Merchant District offers ample chance to get lost, to get distracted, or to stumble down the wrong alley and find hoodlums all too eager to extract "tolls" from the lost and seemingly helpless. Does your adventure become disaster? Does this rumored shop even exist?
Pantalones Giganticus
At its heart, Modification seems like the most simple of schools. What could be more simple than arithmetic? Therefore, Modification also has the steepest and most shocking learning curve of all, as it rapidly balloons to more complicated mathematical expressions, more variables in the formulae, and above all more chance for error.
So really, the mistake is an honest one. Any hurried student, probably in their third or fourth year of study, could accidentally introduce an unnecessary factor into their equation. That is probably why your pants are now sized for someone four times large than you. (Not four sizes. Four times.) Worse, this has happened to EVERYONE -- the entire population of the Magicademy, student and staff and faculty alike, are trundling around in blown-up bloomers, too-large trousers, not-conveniently-sized knickers... you get the idea.
Now the bad news: to fix the error in formula and restore your pants to normal size, someone else has to get in them with you.
Labwork
Not every magical disaster is caused by some wayward student you don't know. Many of them are caused by you instead. To wit: you're on the spot in one of the magical labs, being called on to demonstrate a technique more advanced than others you've mastered so far. Failure is expected, and the wards should prevent any injury to others from a miscast spell. But will the sparks of your magic just sputter out and die? Or will you inadvertently mispronounce, misform, misshape, or miscalculate in a way that brings chaos to you and your lab partner?
(You could also manage to succeed in casting the spell, but that isn't very fun.)
Oh nooo
He was surprised, but not for the reasons Xion might think. If Axel had a heart, then he was closer to Roxas's own time; a time after the fight with Xehanort and the true Organization XIII.
"Yeah. I know that. He'll always be our friend, no matter what." And perhaps help to sort out this confusion.
Yeaaaaaaah....
then she realized there was something else Roxas needed to know.
"And... Sora is here too, we did it, Roxas...."
And that was when it finally hit her it really was all over. Roxas was back and fine, Axel had a heart, no one was telling her she needed to vanish to let Sora wake up... All she had to do was watch to make sure that she wasn't draining Roxas' power and existence with her own.
KH3 spoilers aho!
"Sora's here? He came back??"
After that final battle, no one quite knew what had happened to Sora. He had simply vanished after saving Kairi, and no one had been able to track his location. To hear that he was here was a shock.
And she misunderstands, of course.

Ah, right, that was still a problem. Roxas frowned; of course, another confusing point that would need to be cleared up.
He watched her remove her hood, and for a brief moment he worried about seeing Sora's face again. But instead, he was greeted with the sight of the face he'd come to refer to as a friend. He couldn't help the small smile forming on his face.
"I'm glad that he's back. Maybe we can talk with us too."

He looked over at her, and offered a soft smile.
"In more ways than you'd think."

Please don't have meant Saïx as part of everyone, Roxas. She wasn't sure she could handle that....

He noticed how she left out Saïx, but didn't comment on it. He'd had time to get used to him in Twilight Town, see how hos Somebody was. But he also remembered how cold Saïx had been, especially to Xion. If she wasn't comfortable talking to him, he didn't blame her.
