Twenty-Sixth Keychain-[Voice]

[perplexme]

Well...that was weird. I'm not gonna apologize but I'm pretty sure I did and said some things that were a little...out there.

It would also explain the massive amount of cupcakes I have in my room, at least. Anybody want a cupcake?

One thing that didn't change since the experiment though is loving the weather. Summer's almost here, anybody else excited? I think I'll head down to the lake again, read some more.

Speaking of reading; Martel, how are you enjoying Alice so far?


[Private]
So...it happened again. Naminé appeared...and then she disappeared. And once again there was nothing I could do to stop it. I wish they'd make up their mind already.

...what if what they're really doing is merging and un-merging her with Kairi? Would that mean that she's still here technically? And would that mean if Sora were to come back would Aros and I re-merge? Considering that Sora isn't here, hasn't been for a while, I shouldn't even be worrying about it.

I just want to know. Is that so much to ask? Apparently so.

I just realized I haven't seen Bella in a really long time. Anybody else seen her lately? Maybe I've just fallen off the wagon, I don't know. I haven't talked to a lot of people lately.

Oh...and Axel, did you hide my library books because if you did, I want them back soon.

It's weird isn't it, especially since we're living in the same apartment and everything. Is that my cue to come up from the lake?

[flaring]

Don't bother.

[perplexme]

You really mean that?

[flaring]

Yeah, no need to come running back like a "good boy" as you put it last time. Heh. I figure when you miss me enough you'll demand my attention. Even if it takes another couple of weeks.

[perplexme]

...you know what, you shouldn't even wait for me. Obviously I can't give you what you need and you obviously don't believe anything I have to say about you being my best friend anyway.

[flaring]

...whatever you say, Roxas.

[perplexme]

I just wish you'd listen to me. That's all.

[flaring]

I wish I could use a portal right about now so I can go over there and smack you upside the head. I do listen to you.

[perplexme]

Then listen when I say I don't understand and that I'm not doing this stuff on purpose.

[flaring]

Fine, guess I'll try not to demand your attention so much.

[perplexme]

...that's not what I said either.

[flaring]

No but it's the only way to solve this.

[perplexme]

...right. If you insist.

[flaring]

I don't insist, but... You're not ignoring me on purpose, right? So if I don't bother you I wont have to question you on why you're not paying attention to me. Then it wont keep leading into this. Like I said, if you miss me enough you'll get my attention through the journals, like you do with your other friends. "I just realized I haven't seen Axel in a really long time" works with me too.

[perplexme]

...I sort of just assumed that went without saying. You know, kind of a sixth-sense thing of "oh hey, I bet Roxas misses me because we haven't hung out in a while. I bet he's waiting on the roof". If I knew I had to actually verbalize it, I would have.

[flaring]

You've never missed me before. And I didn't want to come off that needy. Plus you've always been busy... or gone.

[perplexme]

Shows how much you know...I've missed you plenty.

[flaring]

...ah, really?

[perplexme]

Yes. But you just assume I can't learn from experience and change?

[flaring]

You've always been too stubborn.

[perplexme]

Hence why I've never mentioned it until now.

[flaring]

Roxas...

[perplexme]

...yeah?

[flaring]

Come back.

[perplexme]

Already walking.
