Yes, I'm back. No, I didn't die. I didn't leave the city. It doesn't matter now, but if anyone could tell me what all happened these past few days...other than those dark monsters...I'd be grateful.

Prince, Konan... Maybe you two can fill me in? Ada, can I talk to you too? You didn't think I'd forget to say hi, did you?

Oh. And I didn't forget. Happy Birthday, Naminé.


[Private to Terra]

I'm sorry about the other morning, running out. I need to talk to you...about what happened to me, and about something else.


[Private]

I don't understand. Zexion told me I'm important still, but it's fine for them to lock me away? At least I made copies of those notes. I should have been more careful about them. I'll lock them here next time and burn the papers.

He acts like I'm nothing, or like I'm just a kid. Then he's thanking me and asking me to help him...

Why do I feel like this has all happened before? That look in his face was just like...

It's okay, don't worry about it.

They're all interested in the Keyblade. But Marluxia didn't touch me.

I know I did!

I know, I know. I just... I don't like seeing you upset either, Riqis.

No problem.

Re: [Private]

Then....then who-?

What do you want, then? You could just ask for clothes. Lots of people were asking for clothes. Or a new keychain for your keyblade.

I'm not upset. I am upset, but- It's not anything I can help. Just a feeling. Maybe it will go away.

I'll leave it on the chair in the room, okay?

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

None of your business. You shouldn't be roping yourself in with them anyway. You'll just want to kill them for it.

Maybe.

Riqis...

Okay, I'll take it. Maybe Terra wants me to take his too.

[Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

If they deserve it.


...what.

Terra's giving her something too? I thought they weren't exactly friends anymore.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

No.

I don't know if they're friends. It's not my business.

[Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

I miss Yuffie.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

I know. I'm sorry.

Re: [Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

I boxed up her stuff today, for the lost and found room.

...found a lot of what I'm pretty sure was other people's stuff, too.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Great. Maybe we should look through and use what we can, and return the obvious.

Re: [Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Did most of that.

Zelda doesn't want me to leave the Sanctuary.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

Good for her. She's right.

[Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

Then you should stay inside too. So they can't do that again.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

No.

[Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

You think you're so much tougher than me? Or that you deserve to be dealing with them any more?

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

I don't think I'm tougher than you. But they don't want me, they want you, or they want to do something involving you. I don't trust them, and I won't lose you or any part of you to them.

Re: [Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

I thought I just lost you for six whole days, Roxas...

For six days. And I did, to them.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

[He hisses like he's in pain, upset at the implication.]

Riqis...

[Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

I thought you might be gone. And who knows what they want? They might just be using me to get back at you somehow.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, Riqis. I am.

Re: [Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

It's not your fault...but if I have to be extra-careful, then so should you. Then we'll both look out for each other.

It's embarrassing, you know, to not know how you managed to get taken off to that castle for a week, not knowing how to tell people you just...weren't there, once I realized. I say I look out for my friends, that it's important to me...I either don't mean what I say, or I'm terrible at it.

...Namine got attacked by Vexen, (well, by the snow he pushed over her at least) and nobody was there to help her out, and she got really sick, too. I feel awful about that.

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

But none of it was your fault. Not what happened to her, not what happened to me.

Re: [Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

I'm supposed to look out for my friends....

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

You do.

Re: [Private]

[myownmemory.livejournal.com]

Not when stuff like this happens. What if they did anything worse to you?

[Private]

[onlytwilight.livejournal.com]

But it didn't. Please don't beat yourself up over this.
