"Aw c'mon, you make it sound like I'm a little kid who can't take care of himself," Sora huffs good-naturedly, conveniently forgetting the fact that Axel's just scooped him up like an unsteady toddler with no control over his limbs.

He has no intention of getting himself lost in the corridors, even if they are shorter. The last time had been unsettling enough, and there's a part of him that will be sticking close to Axel regardless, trying to keep an eye on him to make sure nothing bad happens to him on his way. Roxas would never, ever forgive him if something happened to Axel on his watch.

"So... ready to go?"
