Twenty-Seventh Keychain-[Written]

And just when things were starting to be peaceful around here. I thought I wouldn't I can't believe This isn't fair... Forget it.

Raine, I was going to try and go to school but it'll have to wait for a while. Sorry. Things have been a little...weird lately. What's everybody else been up to, besides throwing parties and planning summer things. Just curious.

[Filtered to Sora]

Hey, I have no problem leaving right now. Meet me at the building I saw you last time.

[Filtered to Axel]

Technically I could just go to your room but I'm not up for moving. I want to talk to you about something.

That doesn't make any sense.

[action]

[perplexme]

Why not?

[action]

[flaring]

Fine. Go. Do whatever you want. Fight our ex-boss for no reason other than to just make yourself feel useful.

...it won't happen, right?

[action]

[perplexme]

...I'm not going to unless I have to. You should know that.

[perplexme]

Dunno. It hasn't so far in Luceti, which is actually sort of strange considering we had merged together before Sora was on the islands. But it's inevitable, eventually one day Sora and I will have to join together again so he can be at full strength and I can be whole.

But...it's what I wanted at one point, just like every other Nobody. I should be grateful, Naminé and I are the only ones who were able to become whole again.

[flaring]

Yeah, uh-huh.

[action]

[perplexme]

...yeah. [gets up from the bed]

[Cloud's not too sure he likes that idea.]

If you're thinking I don't believe in you then you're wrong.

[perplexme]

[well, Roxas takes his silence as a reason to continue]...I'm...not sure that's what I want now though. That's not selfish, right?

[action]

[perplexme]

You and Sora are just trying to protect me. I get it.

[action]

[flaring]

There are other ways to go about this.

[action]

[perplexme]

Like what?

[action]

[flaring]

How about a game?

[action]

[perplexme]

...what kind of game?

[Filter]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Hell no. It's not selfish to want to be your own person.

[Filter]

[perplexme]

But by being my own person, Sora and I would never be at full strength. And I was one of the only ones who could be whole.

[Filter]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

So what if you aren't at full strength? There's two of you.

[Filter]

[perplexme]

It wouldn't be fair to Sora. The only reason Sora was able to save the worlds was because he had me too. Sora says that he wants me to have my own life too but it still wouldn't be fair.

[Filter]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Why? Sora said it's fine.

[Filter]

[perplexme]

I don't know, Cloud. We're just not allowed to no matter how much either of us wants it, it's just how it works.

[Filter]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well fuck what you're allowed to do. I like you better than Sora anyhow.

[Filter]

[perplexme]

...[sorry hold on, not sure how to really respond to that because besides Axel nobody else has said such]

[Yeah well, Cloud means it. Sora is bouncy and airheaded and all over the place and hasn't even said like two words to Cloud. Roxas is much more mellow and thoughtful and just better.]
