Thirty-Ninth Keychain-[Written]

[perplexme]

Naminé's gone, isn't she.

It's that time of year again, isn't it? For the snow and everything...it's kind of nice. Just means it's closer to Christmas.

How many worlds are there that actually get snow? My world never did.

[Filtered to Xion]

Hey...I'm ready to talk about...whatever it was you wanted to tell me.

[Filtered to Axel]

We need to talk.

[Filtered to Sora]

...have you met Xion?

Comments

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

Exactly my point.

You've never met the younger Riku before now, have you? I don't doubt he's a nice guy when he's older...actually I know he's okay when he's older.

[Filtered]

[fourteen]

I can talk to him too, if you want. After all, I'll already know everything he's not saying.

... no, I haven't. He ... well, he is really different. Really, really different. I don't think I ever saw him smile once until I came here. And he's a lot ... louder.

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

Whatever you think is best. I think he got mad when I started asking too much.

He's obnoxious. He's just being a huge brat and he's jealous and it's all stuff he eventually grows out of, but he hasn't even left the islands yet.

[ "Well I'm sick of it!" .... ]

I think he's worried, Roxas. Just like I am. It's not ... easy, this whole thing.

[ s-startled ] Is he that bad? He was pretty nice when we spoke ... even if it was weird. I don't like this at all.

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

...can't say I blame him. I never said it was.

[Shrug] No, he's just jealous mostly, especially with how things are turning out...Kairi accidentally let it slip what happens to him in the future.

[Filtered]

[fourteen]

[ sigh. ] I'll talk to him too. Maybe it'll help.

How things are turning out? [ what. ... ooooh. ] I don't ... really know what happened, though. I know he was dressed really differently ... he wore our coat and always had a blindfold on. And he said something really strange to me once. "You could say I'm the biggest nobody of them all." I never knew why ... and he never explained when I asked.

[perplexme]

Don't worry about it too much. It's nothing.

[fourteen]

Roxas...

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

Xion?

[Filtered]

[fourteen]

[ sighs at you. ] Sounds like Axel's not the only one being evasive today. But I guess it's really not that important, if it hasn't even happened yet for him.

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

It's not really important...

[Filtered]

[fourteen]

It's fine, Roxas. It really isn't important right now anyway. There's probably a reason he never told me.

... so you're not mad?

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

Yeah, probably. It's a weird thing. ["And probably from the wrong part of your timeline..."]

No. I can't be, really.

[Filtered]

[fourteen]

... you ... really? Not about any of it? I made you kill me! I almost hurt you ... I could have ruined everything. And now I'm back when I'm not supposed to be... How is this okay?

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

...don't worry about it. It...[No good excuse :|]

[Filtered]

[fourteen]

It what?

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

..need to think about it.

[Filtered]

[fourteen]

... okay.
