... is that so?

[ she's silent for a moment. ]

So he was lying.

[leaberator]

Yep. All part of some grand design to make all of us... some kinda vessels for fractions of an old man's heart.

[ he's fought in xehanort's parking lot war and he still thinks it was incredibly stupid ]

[whitewalls]

[ oh ]

Master Xehanort?

[leaberator]

You know that guy? [ a beat ] Of course you know that guy, Ventus was in Sora's heart. Wait, does that mean you knew Ven was inside of-- never mind. Not important.

[ he is TRYING to APOLOGIZE for BEING A DICK, GOD ]

The fact is, I did a lot of messed up stuff back then, and you got caught up in a lot of it. So, I'm sorry.

[whitewalls]

... it's alright. You were one of the ones nice to me, in the end.

[ why is her definition of nice like this ]

[leaberator]

[ ... ]

That kinda makes me feel worse about it.

[ :T ]

[whitewalls]

... sorry. I didn't mean for you to.

[leaberator]

[ he huffs and pokes her forehead ]

No, stop that. Don't apologize to me, that's my thing. [ a thing kairi told him to stop, but she's dead so whatever!!!! he's not sad about that at all!!! ] I'll just have to make it up to you some other way. Now, c'mon, I've said my piece. You're bound to have a couple of questions about what's happened, right?

[whitewalls]

One or two.

[ she'll touch her forehead where he poked it, smiling a little. ]

... you're no longer a Nobody?

[leaberator]

Nope! I got recompleted sometime after I... uh... [ exploded himself? ceased to exist? fucking died? ] helped Sora.

[whitewalls]

... mm.

[ yeah that

... yeah. ]

Thank you for that.

[leaberator]

[ awk ]

I mean, I was the one who caused the problem in the first place... Least I could do.

[ and he was like pretty much dead anyway ]

[whitewalls]

[ she just gives him a small smile ]

You remembered Xion before you came here?

[ considering he was not as shocked to see her scroll ]

[leaberator]

... Yeah.

[ it's soft and almost reluctant ]

I kept... having this feeling, like I'd forgotten something important. [ and crying about it. ] But I couldn't figure it out until she was standing right in front of me.

[ with her hood off after Roxas said her name, specifically, but now it's getting too complicated ]

[whitewalls]

When was this? How did she...

[ you know, become a person again??

because while he was not surprised about xion, he was definitely surprised to see naminé. ]

[leaberator]

[ ah, right. ]

That's... A bit complicated. [ he's not even sure where to start, partially because it involves a dlc we haven't got yet. ] I guess the short of it is Vexen remade her under the false pretenses of filling up the ranks of Xehanort's new Organization XIII?

[ he sounds exhausted just saying it ]

[whitewalls]

Vexen's on our side?

[ well that's (tsuru voice) surprising ]

[leaberator]

[ axel looks extremely pained to be saying this: ]

Apparently. [ turns out sometimes you brutally murder a guy and they switch sides because your ex asked nicely? but he doesn't want to talk about any of that ] Between him, Ienzo and-- get this, Ansem the Wise's research he left in Sora's heart-- they figured out a way to bring you guys back using replica bodies. They were working on yours last I heard, but...

[ but kairi was fucking dead. ]

But they hadn't finished yet.

[whitewalls]

I see...

[ so much has happened, wow

and she has no idea how to feel about any of it. ]

Did you save everyone who was lost?

[leaberator]

The lost Keyblade wielders, right... [ he looks a bit amused that she knows that but? of course? she does? ] I was training with the Keyblade alongside Kairi when they got Aqua and Ven back, so I missed that one, but they dragged Terra back about the same time Xion and Roxas showed up.

[ oh. wait. wait he hadn't meant to just casually drop that first bit-- ]

[whitewalls]

[ she would respond how great it is, that they managed to bring everyone back, except

yeah

there is something very surprising there. ]

You have a Keyblade?!

[ yOU CAN SOUND LESS SHOCKED ]

[leaberator]

--You could sound a little less surprised!

[ WHY IS EVERYONE LIKE THIS EVERY TIME?? ]

[whitewalls]

Oh, sorry-- I'm amazed.

[ wait that sounds bad too ]

I mean, that's so impressive, Axel.

[leaberator]

[ he droops a bit, dramatically putting a hand on his forehead ]

Alright, alright, I get it, it doesn't fit me. But I stubborned my way into one, and I'll be a Master before you know it.

[ he is sounding very fake right now so he just. sighs ]

They needed all the Keyblades they could get to fight off Xehanort, besides.

[whitewalls]

I wouldn't say it doesn't fit you. Just because something is unexpected doesn't mean it doesn't make sense.

You don't have it here though.
