His hands move, constantly. When he's talking, absurd gestures and flutters; an underline, in faded text.
But even when he's silent - a more common occurrence than Roxas'd initially assumed - VIII's hands keep moving - tap tap tap on the arm of a chair, running along walls, making shapes out of pieces of string in meetings.
"What does it mean," he asks, finally.
VIII blinks at him, and says "What," like he doesn't already know.
"Your hands!" he says, and feels like throwing his own up into the air. He doesn't.
"Oh, that," says VIII, and grins. "What do you think, silly?"

Axel's Other was probably hyperactive as a child. XD I love the characterization here. Axel is so perfectly infuriating and I'll bet Roxas wants to kill him.

I really like this. It's very lighthearted, and Roxas' exasperation is very well expressed in so few words. It's been a while since I've read a drabble-drabble that worked so well. Axel's last line is especially fun. x3
