Now it seems strange
How we used to wait for letters to arrive
But what's stranger still
Is how something so small can keep you alive

It doesn't matter what happens to me, if we go back you might have come back to my heart for a little while but that doesn't mean I'm gonna stop trying to figure out how to make you you're own person!

I'm gonna find a way, and I'm not gonna give up, why can't you trust me about that?

[He's not ever going to give up.]

[seasaltkeys]

It should matter! You're supposed to be the hero!

Or do you not care about the fact that Xion literally chose to go back to you!?

[It's probably an unfair question. Because even though Namine has told him about Xion, those memories have not come back to him. And it's not like Sora knew her. But he's a little past the point of being rational right now, like a snowball gathering speed down a hill. The weight of knowing about Xion combined with Axel leaving and buried resentments are all starting to come to the surface.]

[oathkeeper]

[He'd been about to argue that him being a hero doesn't make Roxas any less important but ...

Xion.

That name- He doesn't know it. But somehow his heart starts aching.]

What are you talking about, Roxas...?

[seasaltkeys]

[There a moment of frustrated static as Roxas tries to find his words, but between them and the emotions it's all starting to pile up, each demanding to be felt or said first. How does he even begin to explain something he doesn't even fully understand?]

There was a girl named Xion...and she held part of your memories to. And the only way you were going to wake up was if she went back to you, but that meant everyone would forget about her.

She was my friend and I forgot all about her. Namine told me.

[He's still angry, but there's sadness mixed in now to.

And the vague sense that he wants to say more, but instead the transmission just ends because he'll just end up regretting it if he continues. At least he knows that much about himself now.]

[oathkeeper]

[The transmissions ends before Sora can reply. He leaves Sora feeling confused and somewhat distraught because he doesn't know how to fix this or to make things make sense.

Xion. Part of his memories. Naminé told Roxas.

What is missing from Sora's memories now...? Is this the last piece that keeps Roxas at such a distance?

For the first time ever Sora wonders if it's a bad idea that he lives at Roxas' house. But he'll figure this out ... Somehow.]
