I found Rakuen. She doesn't look like she's eaten in days. She slept in my place last night and I'm feeding her. She's a mess too. Who does that to an animal?

I guess everyone new got a welcome from Terra, so I won't bore you with the technicalities. If anyone's interested, there's a few things going on in World's End that they can help out with.

The first is a renovation project. There's a lot of abandoned homes in World's End, a few of them in shambles, but if we fix them up we can make them livable again. There's Chez Nobody that I'm trying to fix up myself and a few other small buildings in need of repair. If you want to help, talk to me, Yuusuke, or Claire Redfield.

I'm...also looking for some sort of cook for the Lux. We're trying to make it into a working home of sorts. There's plenty of bedrooms and space, but we're working on that too. What we need is someone to cook and hopefully teach some of us to make meals as well. I don't trust Axel in the kitchen and I can't make anything outside of the basics.


...Sheik, whenever you'd like to spar, I'm free. Riqis, same to you. I need to talk to you about something important.

Konan, how are you doing? You've been quiet.

[The voice post begins with Roxas laughing softly in the background. Konan can be heard faintly as well, and then the fun really begins.]

 "C'mon, sing it again."

[There's a roar of laughter from Kisame, who suddenly clears his throat.]

"Under da sea! Under da sea! Darlin' it's better, down where it's wetter, take it from me!"  [Roxas' laughter almost drowns Kisame out as he continues.] " -- While we devotin' full time to floatin' under da seeeeea!"

[The post dissolves into laughing from the three, and when things quiet, Roxas says something lowly and hands off the communicator - clicking follows - to Konan. The kunoichi takes it and begins singing gently, something very obviously from 'Phantom of the Opera', which they also sat in on. There's no laughter this time, the other two listening intently to her as she calmly finishes.]

" -- Help me make the Music of the Night..."

[Roxas' voice comes back in, quiet: "That was really great, Konan. You should be in there singing. That one lady gave me a headache." Kisame offers similar compliments.]

"You now, Roxas-san."

"Huh? Nah. I sound like a drowned rat when I sing in the show -- HEY!" [The communicator clicks, and his voice sounds further away.] "Give that back, Kisame!"

[There's laughter, and suddenly the post clicks off.]

[When the post comes on, there's a few moments of silence and then somewhat erratic breathing.]

About...About how I acted... I'm sorry. I don't - I don't know why I was like that. I'm really sorry. [He pauses and sighs.] I'm...not sure how else to say it.

Riqis, Axel. Alex. I really am sorry.

I'll...I'll be over to pick up Rakuen soon, Konan. I'll bring him back before tonight, promise.

[There's a prolonged pause as he searches for the words to say, if there's anything else.]  ...I'm sorry about this morning, Terra. And this whole week. I'm sorry.
