... That's not it. We wouldn't have trusted you with any of this at all if it was.

[ but it's hard to explain because. yea. the emotional best friend codependency ]

[whitewalls]

[ she shakes her head. ]

... just don't hesitate to ask for my help if you need it.

[leaberator]

I just did, didn't I?

[whitewalls]

Well... for anything else.

[ ... ]

You probably know a lot more about what's going on than I do. And it's okay if you don't tell me anything, but... if I can be useful in some way, I want to do what I can.

[leaberator]

... Yeah, I know. I get you.

[ ... he seems to consider that for a second ]

We're working on something that might let us figure out who killed Swift Wind. If I find out, I'll tell you, alright? But I can't say I'm any closer to figuring out the darkness or anything like that.

[whitewalls]

[ she's quiet for a few seconds. ]

Alright. Good luck.

[leaberator]

We're gonna use Swift Wind's ghost an' make him do charades.

[ just. so she knows. how stupid this is. anyway, he hesitates for a second, rubbing the back of his neck ]

There's... somethin' else you should know, I guess.

[whitewalls]

Oh, with Emma's item?

[ that makes sense.

she tilts her head at the second thing though. ]

What is it?

[leaberator]

Yep.

[ he's... looking up and away from her, blushing now. ]

Uh, well... Thing is... [ he gestures vaguely ] Emma and I are sorta dating now. Just thought you should know.

[ he wants to die. ]

[whitewalls]

[ oh

she blinks in surprise



and then a smile forms ]

Really?!

[leaberator]

[ he nods a bit, still awkwardly not looking at her. he is. so embarrassed. ]

Yep.

[whitewalls]

... I'm happy for you. Emma's a really wonderful person.

[ there's a pause

hm. this explains things. ]

[leaberator]

... Yeah.

[ somehow he manages to look both fond and worried about that. hm. anyway, after a beat: ]

Sorry if you ... felt anything.

[whitewalls]

I don't... know what... you mean...

[ she can lie but this lie is just

so much that she sounds so strained saying it ]

[leaberator]

[ eternal inner screaming. anyway ]

We don't gotta talk about it. Just. Sorry.

[whitewalls]

Don't worry about it. I'm just glad you're happy.

[ ish ]

[leaberator]

... Yeah. Thanks.

[ as happy as he gets considering... everything else, but. ]

[whitewalls]

Does Xion know?

[ because if she doesn't that news might cheer her up ]

[leaberator]

... I'm telling her and Roxas today.

[ he looks. deeply. embarrassed about doing it, but. ]

[whitewalls]

Good. They'll be happy for you.

[ and he will die ]

[leaberator]

... You think?

[ he doesn't want them to think he likes emma better than them and they are... idiots ]

[whitewalls]

I do.

... you'll have to explain some things though, maybe.

[leaberator]

[ ... he groans, a little ]

No, there's no maybe about this.

[whitewalls]

[ i can get away with saying naminé already knows shit because (gestures at repliku's everything) ]

Ah. Have fun.

[leaberator]

Never mind, I'm never telling 'em. It's staying secret forever.
