Zant's dead. The Twilight's finally lifted too...after all that work. At least it's finally done.  I found Alfred too, but still no sign of Claire. He was telling the truth, so just leave him alone.

Riku, Sora, let's talk. I'll be back at the Lux soon.

Sheik, Prince...let's go running sometime soon. I need to get away from it all and I'd like company, if that's okay.


[Private | Unhackable]

I'm tired of not knowing the truth. I really am. I need to know what's happened to Riqis and Konan. I need... I don't know anymore. I need something. I need help.

...Axel, have you really left again?

Flattering.

I respect strength when I see it.

What will you do, add more marks to me?

Voice

[origami-waltz.livejournal.com]

I have not decided yet, but...I would like to see you.

Voice

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Why?

Voice

[origami-waltz.livejournal.com]

Is an answer required?

Voice

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Just curious as to your reasons.

Voice

[origami-waltz.livejournal.com]

Is a reason required, Roxas-san?

Voice

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

No, I guess there isn't. But I don't think it will be the same as before.

Voice

[origami-waltz.livejournal.com]

No...nothing like before.

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Where would you like to meet?

Voice

[origami-waltz.livejournal.com]

Somewhere neutral. The Clock Tower, perhaps.

Voice

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

That's fine. I'll be there in a few minutes.

Voice

[origami-waltz.livejournal.com]

It will be a pleasure to see you, Roxas-san.

[Roxas arrives through a portal in the Clock Tower, looking around for her, but not taking chances this time. He keeps his back to the walls.]

[Konan arrives only a few moments later in a swirl of paper butterflies that merge back into the woman. Her smile is small, her eyes seeking Roxas out immediately, holding his gaze.]

"Roxas-san."

"Konan."

[He spots her and heads over, keeping several yards between them.]

"How are you?"

[Her smile grows a fraction as she steps towards him, her hands folded demurely before her.]

I am well, Roxas-san. I...am sorry for what was done, though I doubt you will believe me.

[Her eyes seem to show her sincerity, her smile fading]

I realize the ways of a shinobi are different...in many ways.

You're sorry? [Absently, his hand touches his chest where the long scar is under his shirt.]

But it's alright to kill me?

Re: [Comment Log]

[origami-waltz.livejournal.com]

I am. It was...I only...

[Her face falls, glancing down, lip trembling faintly. On the verge of losing her cool for once.]

It was not something that was meant...to go that far. There is-I have been here so long, and traditions of my culture, they would make little sense but...

[She steps closer, her eyes warm]

My excuses mean little, I realize.

[He's not sure he should trust her, but he steps closer anyway, watching her.]

We're both very different. I understand that. Don't worry.

[He decides to risk it, and holds out a hand to her.]

I forgive you, Konan.

[She reaches for his hand slowly, blinking back a few stray tears. Gently, so gently...and easing herself closer slowly]

I do not deserve it, Roxas-san.

[Comment Log]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

What happened was both of our faults. I shouldn't have attacked you.

[He's not sure Konan would cry over this...but that's okay. He wants to see if this will provoke something out of her.]

[It's almost a defeated attitude as she continues to grip his hand gently]

I am grateful for your friendship.

[He squeezes her hand gently.]

I'm grateful for yours too. You mean a lot to us.
