Thanks Nai.

What about you? What do you want to do?

[Feels weird, asking that. He doesn't usually inquire about other people.]

I... I want to... [a pause. and just. .... he honestly doesn't know.

deflating] I don't know...

I want to go back and see Gareki and Yogi, but I have friends here who can't go home with me... because they have different homes...

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

If you had the chance, would you go back?

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

Yes... [a pause.] Um...

Is that... okay...?

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Well yeah. It's your life isn't it?

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

'My life'...? What... does that mean...?

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[There's a pause. Oh Nai, Roxas is going to have so much to teach you.]

You know, your life, what you're living right now.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

Is it... what I'm doing right now...? [/just. doesn't get it. sadly.]

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it is. It's what you're doing right now, it's what's you've done, it's what you're going to do, and you have control over all of it.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

But... control is bad... right? Control is cages... and lots of angry people...

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

That kind of control is. But there's different kinds of control. The kind of control you have over your life is good, because it's your decision.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

I don't... get it. Is that... what Roxas does...?

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's what I do. My life is mine, so I'm going to do what I want, and not let others decide for me.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

Does it... make Roxas... happy...?

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it does.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

I guess... then it's not too bad...!

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Trust me. It isn't bad.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

I... I trust Roxas...! [staunchly]

So if I want to control... what do I... do...?

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

You just decide you want something, and then you do it. So, you can say you want to get ice cream, and then go get ice cream.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

That sounds... really easy...!

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

It is.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

If it's that easy... then I'll do my best...!

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

[Have an encouraging nod.]

You'll be fine.

video.

[retrusting.livejournal.com]

But what if... I do it wrong...?

video.

[seasalttwilight.livejournal.com]

Then you try again until you know you've done it right. Besides, if you've made the decision, then you stick with it, and there's nothing wrong with that.
