XII. Larxene ? - Her picture was gone when I got there today.
A hundred and ten days.
Twenty-three days.
[ the last is too scrawled out to read, but it ends in 'days'. ]
I'm getting kind of tired of keeping count. But I guess this is one of those important things. Even if I stopped writing it down, I'd know anyway.
[another side, another story page]
I get what forgiveness means, but... does it really matter? What he thinks doesn't change what happened. Forgiveness just means he's not mad anymore, and I'm pretty sure that's not the part that was wrong. So how does that help?
I took Sora's heart, and I gave it back. It still doesn't make any sense. I don't have the heart now, but I haven't changed my mind. So it's not about feeling something. It's not about right or wrong.
Then... why?

[ The device clicks on with a thunk as it hits the floor. There's the sound of shifting in the background. Apparently someone's kicked it off the mattress - and is sitting up now, startled. ]
Huh? ... Kaoru? What're you doing here?
[ Some shifting, a turn of the page. ]
Oi, Roxas~ You sleep in pretty late, too, you know? I got bored. This book isn't interesting at all.
You didn't answer my question. And - wait, how'd you get in?
I wanted to hang out, duh~ You have to meet someone.
... you know, you didn't have to wait for me to wake up. [ Getting out of bed now. Footsteps, and a closet door opening. ] Meet who?
I decided to be nice and not kick you off. I could do that next time, though~ [ A horrified pause - the closet's fault. ] Ah- it's a secret. So hurry! Hurry!
What? ... hey, that's not what I meant! [ The sound of a coat being slung over his arm as he walks back across the room - inadvertently kicking the device in the process. It skids into a wall and shuts off. ]
(ooc: Backdated a few hours, obviously. Roxas is in italics, Kaoru is not. Assume an IC twenty-minute delay for replies.)
