Sixty-Fourth Keychain - Written

I only have one simple question for everybody.

[Which is a surprise in and of itself. For Roxas, who generally asks lots of questions and pokes and prods at everything, simple isn't exactly something that fits in his vocabulary.]

What do you do when you've run out of things to do? [A pause.] I mean I've been here for 1,558 days. My cat refuses to keep up his painting and skateboarding lessons. ~~Axel's still gone, and Xion has Luke.~~ Time...moves really fast, and I guess I'm just now noticing.

At least it's close to Christmas again. I've really grown to like the snow and the holiday, maybe almost as much as Sora. Heh. All right, I don't think anyone can love Christmas as much as he can. That'll be something to keep me busy for a while, but what then? I think I've read almost every book in the library by now. Is there more that I can learn still, or does it all just stop?

Anyway, I don't really expect an answer, but I'd appreciate it if anyone had some advice.

…thanks.

You can't like all three of them.

Knew of her. A friend of mine knew her though.

Skeletons shouldn't be able to move.

[Even the thought is freaking him out!]

Roxas-kun, I so can! I don't like resisting, I like closeness, and I'm pretty sure I'm a sex machine too!

[A pause.]

The matter is a bit more complicated than it might seem on the surface. Being in possession of the full extent of my memories can be damaging to a world if it is not sufficiently mature. I am uncertain of the status of this planet, but I would prefer to err on the side of caution.

Ah. Well, I guess that's for the best, now that she's -- [there's only the briefest of hesitations as she replaces "dead" with] -- gone. You don't have to worry about missing her.

[No need to spread it around that Stella is dead back in her world.]

I will do that, then. [Captain Hornblower. A name to write down for later. But for now, she starts to get her paperwork out of her bag. She forgot about it for a little bit there] Would you like to see the memoirs now?

Is that bad where you're from?

Iiii don't think you get to be the judge of the last one, dude. Hate to break it to you.

...you're very brave, you know that, Grune?

What makes you think she won't be coming back someday?

Yeah, definitely. May as well get a head start, right? How many did you say there were?

No, just scary.

Yes. I wrote down all twenty-four that had been there. [Taking out one notebook in specific, she flips to a page and lays it flat in front of Roxas for him to see.]

Jack's not that scary. Weird, sure, but not scary. I don't know enough about the skeleton here though, but I'm going to guess it's the same.

How can a walking skeleton not be scary?

[Give him time to analyze and read all of them...]

...what does it all mean?

There are monsters that aren't that scary, aren't there?

The only monster I've seen is a dragon, and those are scary...and so was the blue man with a hole in his head.

[And while he's reading, she'll sit down]

Several assumptions could be made for each individual memoir, to speculate on what they may perhaps mean. [On the next few pages she actually has some assumptions of her own written down] However as a whole, I believe that this means there had been a large group of people, such as ourselves, that had resided here prior to any of us arriving. And sometime during their stay, they had either been eliminated or abducted by the Malnosso or by another party, whether that may be the cultists or another group we are not yet aware of.

...the blue man with what?

...what makes you think they aren't also people that were here at the same time as we were?

A hole in his head.

Crona...why did he have a hole in his head?

The possibility of those people being a part of those who wrote these memoirs seems unlikely because [She points to one memoir specifically] here one states that they had reached their seventh cycle. We have yet to reach our own. This group must have been here long before our arrival, perhaps a decade or two prior. Not to mention that our enclosure currently has no desert, as it's mentioned twice in the memoirs.

[“Nico once went so far into the desert that he found some old wreckage. Was someone here before us?”

She wonders to herself if this has happened before, the disappearance of a group within this or any enclosure and then another is sent in years later to start anew]
