If they can break Xion, is it possible they can break the rest of us like that? I can't seem to get a straight answer on that.

Things have been quiet lately...no Vanitas activity, which is pretty weird. Wonder what that means.

...probably means the same thing as Aqua disappearing right after that experiment. Nothing, but it's still suspicious. I kinda miss her. The real Keyblade Master...having her as my mom wasn't terrible...and having a dad and brothers wasn't bad either. I shouldn't be thinking about it now, but I can't seem to get it out of my head. I actually have memories of having my own family. Not Sora's. Mine. I guess all I can do is store it.

...I'm Roxas, for those of you who are new here. Let me know what I can do to help out. I've been here a while, maybe I can answer your questions or something. Worth a shot.

[Until he gets approached, Roxas is going to hang out outside of KH house on the path. In his hand is his polaroid camera he received for Christmas, and in front of him is his skateboard from his first Christmas in Luceti. Seems normal, right? Well. Not until you take into account that there is a cat sitting on the skateboard and Roxas is pushing the board gently back and forth with his foot.]

Okay, Nea. Let's see what you can do. [Yes, he really has become that bored. Please somebody tell him this is a terrible idea.]

[...he's slowly starting to realize that Vanitas knows, but he's not going to play into his game just yet.]

Okay, whatever, she's not a clone of Ven. Why does it matter anyway?

I can't be curious?

Sure you can, but I think you already asked her. What'd she tell you?

That she's made up of more parts than any normal person could be. But, you're avoiding the question.

I'm not avoiding anything, I'm checking to see what you already know.

She's kinda made up of more parts, yeah. You seem to already know more than you should. Besides, it's like you said. She's a clone. Not unusual. [Except for, you know, her whole creation and existence.]

That's not what I'm talking about.

The point of making a clone is to replicate one person, not twenty. I've seen what she really looks like--

--And I doubt her heart's strong enough to connect to that many people.

She's not twenty people...[Roxas is definitely getting defensive. Dude, that's bbf #2. You don't mess with that.]

Tell you what. You tell me who you are, I'll tell you who she is.

Who do you think I am?

That's what I'm not sure of. If you were part of Sora, I'd know...but you look like him. But I look like Ven. So maybe it'd be easier if you just spit it out.

I'm surprised Ventus hasn't told you, yet. But you're right; I'm not part of Sora.

I'm Ventus' better half.

[...wait a minute. Give him a minute to basically stare at him and blink.] ...like his Nobody?

You've said that, before. And I still don't know what it means. Feel like explaining now?

It means you're half of his heart. His other half. His darkness. [He looks up, staring Vanitas in the face for another long moment because it still doesn't quite make sense.] Are you the other half of his heart, or a different kind of half?

Can't say I'm in love with the terminology, but it does fit.

You can't tell me you're the dark part of someone's heart, though.

[He raises an eyebrow.] And why can't I?

Because, you're too positive.

[...he snickers a little.] Positive. What's that supposed to mean?

What do you think?

You're too wound up in things like friendship and doing the right thing, to be anyone's darkness.

Then you're obviously not thinking hard enough about whose darkness I am.

And you're not listening.

But we're getting off the main subject.

That might be a common problem for me, get used to it.

[He shakes his head though. NO. No going back to the main subject yet.] No, explain something to me. Explain why you look like Sora if you're Ventus' darkness.

Go ask Xion. I've already explained it to her, and I don't feel like repeating myself.

You don't get to decide where this conversation goes. So spill it.
