But he certainly had to put some work into affording such a thing. He can say that much, right?]
It took a while to save up for it.
[That being said, he moves right along to more pressing matters]
The name is Rin, so you know.

Add isn't really sure what to say. Save up for it how? He only has a vague idea of how this world's currency works but they didn't get anything for answering a prayer. Did Roxas go out of his way to buy this?
... And Add already brought up the price. Isn't it rude to say something like that when you're given something for free? He stares at his feet sheepishly.]
You didn't have to give me anything.
no subject
[He trails off, just long enough for the hesitance to be noticed. Add doesn't remember how much of a tooth-and-nail fight Roxas used to put up about having feelings, or rather, being capable of experiencing them to start with.
Still...]
I guess you could say I felt like it.
[The words are vaguely wistful, edging into his tone just enough that one might notice if they had a mind to. For his part, Roxas doesn't really. He's too occupied with how awkward it is using the word "feel" with regards to himself or anything relating to him]

Eventually, he forces himself to sigh to break the silence, bending down to pick up the small robot. He brings it over to his desk so he can avoid facing at Roxas any longer.]
Was there anything else you came here for? ["Thank you" would be the right words for this scenario, but his mouth moves on its own before he can stop it.]
no subject
[So Add would have free reign of the temple for a while. He thinks with something to tinker with, he'll probably be busy enough. Besides which, there's the way he already holes up in his room to begin with. It may well be that Add wouldn't have noticed that he and Ludger are gone...
But it seems like the sort of thing that he ought to say, since they live in the same place]
no subject
Even if Roxas still manages to hunt him down sometimes, when he ends up staying out past dinner. Annoying.
... although, it's kind of nice to know that someone would notice if he didn't come back...
Thinking of that, and of the small robot sitting on the desk in front of him, he can't help but feel a pang of guilt. Is it just because he's his shinki...?]
... Fine. Do what you want. [He grips the edges of his desk tightly. Why is he getting so snippy?] You don't need my permission. If you want to go somewhere, just go. Leave a note if it bothers you so much. Don't waste my time with pointless interactions.
no subject
[There's nothing of emotion in the response, flatter even than his voice usually is. It's not as though Roxas can within reason be bothered - Add has no reason to remember why he would care about something like this. Has no reason to care for himself.
And yet, irrationally, it does gnaw at him. So his voice just becomes even more subdued than it already was.
Or maybe it's that stinging he's getting from Add for some reason. It could easily be that]
no subject
[His tone isn't angry, but it's still needlessly harsh and curt. He doesn't understand why he's acting like this. Something about being treated so thoughtfully...
He should at least say thank you... but it feels like it's too late now. It would just sound tacked on. Roxas hasn't said anything about it, so maybe he doesn't care if Add is grateful or not.]
no subject
Rin. Don't forget.
[And with that, he shuts Add's door quietly and sets off to get ready to answer that prayer with Ludger]
