[Sora spends so much of his time on the shore these days. It wasn't really on purpose- first he'd been trying to carve out a little niche. In the absence of rooms at the Invincible he and his friends had settled on hanging hammocks and patching up the ceiling inside the boathouse, not a new home, but a place to call their own at least. And after that they'd started on the raft. After that the more ambitious process of figuing out a boat.
It takes a little time for him to make it up the hill and follow the path towards town square. The bonfire becomes a kind of light at the end of the tunnel and Sora doesn't pass anyone along the way, but he hears voices and the unmistakable signs of life that come with a small town. People inside the bar or wandering through the square.] Uh-
[It only occurs to him now that he's closing in on the fire itself that he doesn't really know who he's looking for. And they don't know him either. The tell-tale uncertainty announces itself in the way his gait slows- the way his footfalls even out and he looks from one unfamiliar expanse of courtyard to the other. Until he spots a figure standing by the fire, smoke wafting from a cigarette.]
