Ummmm....Uruki? Mai? Did either of you invite a friend over~? I think I saw a strange man in the apartment, and I don't know who he is~

...He looks familiar, though~ Guess I should just talk to him, right~?

Roxas, are you...are you okay? I'm worried.

Actually...There's...I've been picking up on a strange aura. It...it makes me feel sick. And

Comments

I apologize in advance for Roxas being brattier than usual. :x

[obliviomancy]

You're always worried. Is that supposed to be new?

[obliviomancy]

You should know. You talk about it all the time. How important it is to have a heart and feel.

[auraoftheday]

Because it is important.

[obliviomancy]

Nobody treats it like it is. You'd think all that anyone could feel in this City is pain, and when they talk about joy it's over something useless and small. They have hearts and they turn them into something pathetic.

[auraoftheday]

...

Joy doesn't have to come from something big, Roxas. The most beautiful things are often small.

[obliviomancy]

Save your "size doesn't matter" card for someone else. I'm sure they'll need it.

[auraoftheday]

Not as much as you.

[obliviomancy]

Not really. I already know I don't want a heart. None of the details matter if you don't have one in the first place.

[auraoftheday]

...

No. You're wrong. This isn't you.

[obliviomancy]

First Kaoru and now you. Those hearts really aren't doing any good if you can't even get the obvious with them.

[auraoftheday]

Did you forget the conversation we had a few days ago? You want a heart so desperately, Roxas...

[obliviomancy]

No. You want me to want it desperately. I said I wasn't sure. And now that I've had time to think about it, I've decided. I don't want anything.

People like you made the choice a lot easier, though.

[auraoftheday]

People...like me?

[obliviomancy]

Sure. You made me see how much the heart is just useless baggage.

[auraoftheday]

It isn't useless to feel something.

[obliviomancy]

Really? What do feelings do that makes them so useful?
