It's a kind of magic [RL with Hayate and Tsubomi]

A little tap with the Keyblade, and Aqua opened the door to Hayate's home.

"Heard you weren't feeling well," she said. "I brought something that might cheer you up."

"Oh that's an incredible item!" exclaimed Hayate. "Will it work for us?"

[bag_has_snapped]

"I-It has to be... shouldn't it?" Tsubomi said, looking excited about the idea of doing so.

[shiningwaters]

"I think so," Aqua insisted. "The bonds we make give us strength."

[lil_tanuki]

"How soon could you do this?" inquired Hayate.

[bag_has_snapped]

"Can't be too long, but... we don't wanna rush her..." Tsubomi added, realizing they don't want to push much.

[shiningwaters]

"It's actually easy," Aqua said, as the Wayfinder began to shine. "Once we became friends, we formed an unbreakable connection."

[lil_tanuki]

"Woooowwwwww," gasped Hayate, grinning widely. "That's incredible! And really simple to boot."

[bag_has_snapped]

"Mmn, it really is... I'd figured it would take awhile..." Tsubomi added, impressed by it.

[shiningwaters]

"I wanted to be sure that it would be simple to set up, since my friends and I weren't always going to end up on the same worlds." She tried not to feel sad at the last meeting with Terra and Ven and how disastrous it had ended.

[lil_tanuki]

"Oh that would be a good point then," said Hayate as she continued to work on her own tasks. "I'm glad you're thinking about them. How does this work by the way?"

[bag_has_snapped]

"Oh..." Tsubomi was caught off guard a little about the talk of friends. The possibility of being separated didn't sit well with Tsubomi, especially with her trying to situate herself still.

"I used some magic on the good luck charms I made for everybody before our exams," Aqua explained. "Since then, the magic's spread out beyond the connections we had to each other."

Then, seeing how uncomfortable Tsubomi was, she added, "It's nothing bad! It's just, when I passed my exam, I knew I would probably be sent to other worlds. Terra's still working on passing, and Ven's too young to take the exam. Ven would be staying home, and Terra and I might be going in different directions, since he still has to pass."

"Like everyone's connected, despite your different paths," said Hayate with a nod. "I like it."

[bag_has_snapped]

"Oh! I see now... I guess that makes sense." Tsubomi said. She smiled sheepishly, however. "S-Sorry, just... I'm not used to having all of these bonds yet. Especially since I had just moved from another town just a few months prior..."

[shiningwaters]

"It's not quite like that," she assured Tsubomi. "It's not like you're leaving for good. It's like you're promising to meet again."

[lil_tanuki]

"Oh! Yeah I like that better." Hayate smiled at Tsubomi and Aqua. "Like we meet all the time."
