Thirtieth Keychain-[Written/Voice/Action]

[Private]
The Organization now has members I, II, IV, VII, IX, and XI. There’s also myself and Axel, numbers XIII and VIII. Xemnas is still gathering members. I wish I knew what was going to happen, but I don’t. I had to back down from our plan; I couldn’t…I’m afraid of it wouldn’t work out well.

Olette arrived a few days ago. Olette remembers me. Why does Olette remember me? Is she from a time when I was still their friend? Olette can’t know about everything else. I have to keep her separated. People here, I don’t want anyone telling her about the Organization or me. I want her to remember me…please keep remembering me, I like it when you remember, Olette.

…though I’m one to talk. How could I forget her? Xion. Number XIV. We were best friends, her, Axel, and me. We were best friends, we would eat ice cream. She brought me seashells? She brought me a lot of seashells.

Why can’t I remember anything else? What happened? What am I missing? I want to remember so she stops being sad.

What’s happening to me…are my memories disappearing the longer I’m in this place?

This new experiment…is it an experiment? Everybody seems to be acting funny, and Demyx has a Keyblade suddenly. Why does he have a Keyblade? The only ones who are supposed to have the Keyblade are Sora and me…Xion can use them too, and so can Kairi and Riku but the only ones here who have them are Sora and me.

What’s going on?

I can’t take it. I can’t…my head. My head hurts and it’s hard to concentrate and I just want to remember everything and understand.

[There's a Roxas sitting at the lake, sifting through the water near the shore and really focusing on his task]

…I've been here for 284 days. The weather can't make up its mind I guess. This experiment also seems to be a lot different than the last one. Everyone’s okay, right? Let me know if I can help somehow.

[Filtered to Axel]
I have a question…maybe you can help me out.

[Filtered to Sora]
Hey. I need to talk to you, if that’s okay?

Define 'okay'.

[Voice]

[perplexme]

...in tact.

You're going to have to tell me who you are if you're affected.

[Voice]

[7bladesword.livejournal.com]

Mentally yes, physically no.

Yuffie...

[Voice]

[perplexme]

...you...look and sound like a guy.

[Filtered]

[crownwielding.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sure it's okay! What's on your mind?

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

You remember the members of the Organization, don't you? What do you know about Xion?

[Filtered]

[crownwielding.livejournal.com]

Xion, you mean like the girl who just showed up here? The one who sounds like Kairi. But, I don't remember a Xion as part of the Organization. I would've remembered if there had been. I'm sorry, Roxas.

[Filtered]

[perplexme]

...you don't remember her at all? Not even a little?

[Filter]

[flaring]

Yeah?

[Filter]

[perplexme]

...does the name 'Xion' ring any bells at all?

[Filter]

[flaring]

Xion. Xion... noooot necessarily. Why?

[sunnytwilight.livejournal.com]

I'm fine, Roxas. What about you?

[perplexme]

I'm fine. Not affected at least, which makes me better off than others already.

[sunnytwilight.livejournal.com]

Good to hear.

But what do you suppose is happening to everyone? What kind of experiment is this?

[Voice]

[noheart.livejournal.com]

That's a rather impressive number of days to have stayed in this world, Roxas.

[Voice] /threadjack

[gravity-splode.livejournal.com]

Aaaaaactually, I've heard of people being here for longer. Like... a year or more, so it's impressive but it could be woooor...[and the sentence just trails off as his brain catches up to his mouth.]

Uh.

[Voice]

[noheart.livejournal.com]

... Braig.

[Voice]

[perplexme]

I...guess so?

[Voice]

[noheart.livejournal.com]

You only guess? To have survived in such a bizarre world for nearly a year... That is truly commendable, my young friend.

[Squid-man ahoy! Sadly, he doesn't seem to be able to come out of the shallows of the lake, but that's close enough to sort of allow conversation.]

I would hardly call this 'okay'.

[perplexme]

[just stares for a second] ...who...or what are you?

[andallaretrue.livejournal.com]

A man corrupted.

[And not too pleased, by the sound of the voice.]

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

You've been counting how many days you've been here...?

[Voice]

[perplexme]

Yes. Why?

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Nothing, I just hadn't thought of doing that. I think that would make me even more depressed.
