So there we go! Mr. Mermaid. For our fond bonding memories.

[omegathree]

Do you prefer Lea or Axel? I've heard people refer to you as both.

[leaberator]

Lea's my real name, but... Axel's what I went by when I met most of my friends, so they still call me that. I don't really mind either, so long as they remember.

[ it's a bit wistful? and. also a bit weird but. memories bad ]

[omegathree]

I've gotten used to calling you Lea, but I can certainly change it.

Your friends... Xion, Namine and Saix? Is that right?

[leaberator]

Nah. Saïx knew me as Lea first. But you're right on the other ones.

[ and roxas but he doesn't talk about his son who he misses ]

[omegathree]

So you've known Saix... longer than the others?

[leaberator]

Hmhmm. Might be hard to believe, but we were childhood friends.

[omegathree]

[What? Okay.

...

What?]

What is that like? Having a childhood friend?

[leaberator]

[ ..... uhhhh ]

Like... having known a person for a long time, I guess?

[ IT'S NOT LIKE HE AND ISA ARE A GREAT EXAMPLE OF IT ]

[omegathree]

Is that all? Is is different to grow up with a person instead of meeting them later in life?

[Val didn't get a single friend until he was 2100.]

[leaberator]

Well... they know a lot more embarrassing personal details the earlier you meet 'em, mostly. But you can be just as close to people you meet later.

[omegathree]

How odd, I wasn't expecting that to be relieving to hear.

[leaberator]

[ aw, val ]

Never had one, huh?

[omegathree]

Mmm... demons don't tend to have childhood friends, and the more powerful we tend to be, the more solitary.

[leaberator]

Makes sense. Humans usually do, but you don't always keep 'em. Sometimes people grow apart, sometimes they move... Even if all you've got left is memories, it's nice, though.

[omegathree]

... It does sound nice when you say it like that.

[He seems a little admiring, a little soft. There are some good things about humans, after all. Friendship, memories, camaraderie, the bonds between them.

Even as a tyrant he's admired those things.]

[leaberator]

It is.

[ he's not gonna deny it, even if things with him and isa are............... highkey complicated. ]

But you make memories no matter when you meet your friends.

[omegathree]

Of course. That's part of existence, making memories to look back on later. I'll always look fondly back on the days I met each of my comrades.

[Val they tried to kill you.]

[leaberator]

... Didn't you just say they all tried to kill you?

[omegathree]

Yes, they have. Fenrich tried to poison me the first time we met. It failed spectacularly.

[He is. So fond.]

[leaberator]

Please don't say that so fondly.

[omegathree]

Fenrich is my first comrade. He was hired muscle for a demon that thought I would be running for President.

[Demon running for President is just fighting your way there and beating up the President. You know. Like democracies should work.]

[leaberator]

Aren't you trying to conquer the ... universe, or something?

[omegathree]

Yes, it's a promise I've made to Fenrich.

Emizel will be President of the Netherworld soon, as well. [He's so proud of the kid he babysat.] He's come a long way from being a Reaper that hadn't taken a soul.

[leaberator]

Sounds like he was having some job performance issues.
