[Filtered From Hayner]

So let's say that someone recently showed up in this place, but they're from a time where they remember you differently. How can you tell them about how things are in the future without ruining everything? And this isn't just a "oh I moved away" sort of difference, this is something a lot bigger...like memories.

727 days. Nearly two years, and I still don't see any signs of me going home anytime soon. Should I consider that a good thing or a bad thing? For those of you who have been here that long, what do you think?

Oh, hey. Hayner! I'm thinking since you're new here ~~and your sense of direction stinks still~~, we should probably explore Luceti some more so you get familiar with it. What do you think? Later today?

[Filter to Xion]

Hey. I think we need to talk.

...haha, real funny, Sora. [That was not cool, twin :|] C'mon man, I'm being serious here.

[Oh come on, he had to do something, everything's been too "Waaaaah angst" lately.]

I know, I know, I knooow. But it is kind of totally crazy, right? We're not really normal anymore, you know.

...[Huh. He didn't really think about that part.]

Yeah, I guess you've got a point. Were we ever really normal to begin with though? That's the real question here.

Yeah, back before everything started.

[Back when he was one person, and not three. Sora's got no problem with "bits" of him walking around on their own now, but just taking a step back from it makes it obvious how weird the situation is.]

Before the big storm and everything. Been awhile, huh? [Man, three years since then... Really hard to believe.]

Sora, that just makes you normal. Xion and I? Not so much, but I guess it's hard to be normal when you're not supposed to exist. But you're right...it's been a while. Kind of crazy to think about.

Hey, if you were me once, then you were normal, right? Just go with it.

[But yeah, that doesn't help with the Hayner thing.]

Just take it a step at a time, then? I mean, he's gotta know you'n me are friends, and he's probably gonna figure out we've got the same face sooner or later. Maybe tell him we're connected and see how he takes that before anything else.

All right, all right.

...yeah, I guess so. That might be the easiest way to do it. I mean it helps that he might just shrug it off if I explain it that way. We can only hope, right? Maybe he won't even notice and I won't tell him at all.

He's not gonna like it if you hide something from him, you know.

I know, but maybe I can just stall for a little longer. Only until he finds out.

So how long do you think that's gonna be? I don't know him that great, but it doesn't seem like he's as clueless as some other people around.

He might be clueless enough if I try. Besides, he might just write it off as something impossible.

Yeah, it's all pretty weird.

Guess we're just gonna have to wait and see, then.

Guess so. Don't worry about it too much, Sora. It's still my problem.

Hey, your problems are my problems, too. Okay, this one less than some others, but you know I've got your back.

[It's just automatic these days.]

Yeah, I know. Kind of hard to get rid of you at this point. [Don't worry, the tone's still in a joking manner.] Thanks, Sora.

[He hears that, twin, and he expects it by now.] No problem, man. Just let me know if you need me.
