Have to admit, I've got little to no problems being forced into this vacation of sorts. Beats everything I had on my plate before I got here by far.

But here's the thing.

Flourishing? Crying? I'll throw you an insincere laugh every once in a while but outside of that, boy, have you picked up the wrong guy for the living and growing duties. Gods, right? Tsk, tsk. You should've known better.

Not that I'm asking to go back. Again, I'd rather be here. Just thought you'd like someone pointing out a flaw in that grand scheme of yours.

By the way, new, if you haven't guessed already. Axel's the name. Remember it. A X E L.

[ if you're in the kitchen and watching carefully (you creep) you'll notice that he adds one more line of text before hesitating and deleting it. and with that, he's done with his post. now he can turn his full attention on raiding the fridge and freezer. "pizza rolls"? hope these didn't belong to anyone, because right now they're being dumped onto a plate and will subsequently be ushered into the microwave. finders keepers. ]

Naminé. So they've gotten a hold of you too?

[ but wait, ]

Back? Riku said the same thing.

They have. [And she hasn't said it yet, so,] Hello Axel.

[Ah. Confirmation enough, she supposes, but still she should probably ask,]

You don't remember being here before?

Not a thing.

[ he's about to go into a "last I remember" description, but stops himself mid-type. nope, not ready to share this story ~~at all~~ yet. ]

I don't suppose you'd be able to fill me in, though. I'm more than a little interested in everything I've apparently gone through before.

It's not unusual for people to forget things after they've left.

I didn't see you very often and we didn't speak much. I don't know what you were doing all that time. I'm sorry. [And she is, too.] If it helps I think you should still be able to look up your old posts on the network.

Edited 2012-03-24 04:46 (UTC)

Think I might do just that.

I take it you know about Roxas.

[ LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS. 8| ]

[There's a lag. When she texts back, it's filtered. This is not the conversation she wants floating around on the network unhidden.]

[She can only assume he means 'about Roxas' memories'.] I do. I take it you do too.

Yeah. Funny how I have to go through all of this again with him.

[Funny?]

[....]

What are you going to tell him? [She's seen what he's already told Roxas, of course - publicly, anyway. She has an unfortunate habit of monitoring communications not addressed to her, if she thinks they hold information she deems important to acquire.]

Question is, exactly whose job will it be to tell him everything?

[Who, indeed?]

I don't have the answer to that.

[But--] I'm not sure that he's ready to hear it. [No matter who it's from.]

[ he's ... thinking. it'd be easier to do the selfish thing. he wants to do the selfish thing, but how exactly would roxas fare after everything's said and done? ]

So we just leave him like this.

[It eats at her, too, leaving things like this, leaving Roxas in the dark. Except she's learned already, from mistakes twice over, how hard he'll take it, when or if he's told the truth. She's seen the damage it will do.]

Until he's ready.

I'm so sorry.

[ "until he's ready" isn't a good enough answer for him, but he'll keep that to himself. ]

Right.

That Riku's running around -- I assume you've talked to him about this as well.

[She wishes she had a better one.]

He won't tell.

[ that's one down, and one tricky little anonymous to go. a part of him knows that he himself is the person everyone needed to watch out for in terms of roxas and his memories. and he's not exactly sure how long he'd be able to sit back. ]

Anyone else from our set of worlds I should know about, then? Not everyone is as...agreeable as Riku.

[ his subtle way of fishing for information on anon. ]

[People he should know about? Probably several, but as far as 'people with some relation to Roxas' memories who might actually blab', well....]

Sora knows a little bit. It's not much but I think that I should talk to him about not bringing it up. [If you were hoping to figure out more about that anon, Axel, you'd be better off asking a different question.] But there's another problem.

[ ... sora? he's not surprised that he's here, just surprised that the fact that he is hasn't been brought up before now. this makes things more interesting, though he's not sure just yet whether it's in a good or bad way. ]

Oh? Do share.

It seems someone might be trying to give Roxas false information.

Specifically about his heart. [Though it kind of stings to type those words together.]

Let me guess. This someone likes to go around leaving anonymous messages.

[--? ... Oh. Oh, dear. She... might need to have a talk with Dataxas about that. But,]

No. That's not the person that you need to worry about.

[Not unless something goes terribly amiss, anyway.]

[ wow, he actually got that one wrong. but who else...? ]

Sora. Riku. Roxas. Anonymous. That's the official roll call, isn't it?

[ he didn't want to mention this at first, because frankly, this particular relationship isn't any of her business. but after a few seconds he can't help but to add in. ]

Ventus?

[So he does remember Ventus. She'd wondered.]

Not exactly. Someone connected to him.

[Fortunately, she doesn't mind admitting that she's aware of Ventus.]

[ he only barely remembers the boy himself, and is actively trying to keep it just as that -- a bare remembrance (personal reasons, anyone would understand). so there's no way he'll recall ventus ever mentioning anyone. ]

Great. A decade's old problem is just what anyone needs.

Edited 2012-03-27 06:57 (UTC)

I'm sorry. I know it's very troublesome.

[She hesitates. Best to put things out in the open, she supposes.]

His name is Vanitas.
