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.

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.

...the blue man with what?

A hole in his head.

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

I don't know...I was to afraid to ask.

At least he's not here.

...he's not here, right?

I don't think so...I haven't seen anyone that's blue here.

That's good at least. I don't think I've seen anybody blue either.

That's very good.

I'm just not sure what's so scary about him.

...What's not scary about a blue man with a hole in his head?

Well is there anything falling out of the hole?

...I don't think so...but I wasn't really looking at him for very long...

...I think we should teach you how to be more brave. [Not that there's anything wrong with Crona, but Roxas is thinking it'd be better for him if he were braver.]
