The day had started like any other. Roxas had joined Zack in waking up at dawn and while his roommate had gone to do his morning exercises, Roxas had gone for a long ramble in the jungle, as was becoming his new habit. It used to be because he was tiring himself to keep from thinking too much, but now it was in equal parts because he liked wandering off the paths and finding his own and it made a good workout.

Around noon, he'd made his way to the Compound to grab something to eat with Zack before they went their separate ways for the rest of the day again. Finished eating, Roxas was walking through the rec room, glaring balefully at the jukebox while he looked for something to read or to see if any of his friends were about. He wasn't exactly in a sociable mood, but the rational part of him knew he needed it.
