Aqua, being a powerful Keyblade Master who serves the light with all her heart, left the city again to attend to her duties.

[Translation: "Aqua vanished. She might have been destroyed by a Darkness monster or she might have faded away because of what happened with Xehanort or maybe the Core just sent her back to our dimension. I don't know and it

[Hi Terra. Guess who's back and has no idea who you are?] So wait, how many Keybladers are there these days, anyway? Last I checked there were only like... two. [He scratches the crown of his head. Jeez, he really must have slept through all the good stuff.]

[voice]

[todomarishi]

[Axel. His very favorite nonexistent entity.

But how to reply. On one hand, Axel is Roxas' friend (a close friend, even)... But, on the other hand, Aqua's disappearance hasn't put him in the best mood. He'll try for civil. Civil shouldn't be too hard to manage. He hopes.]

Oh, there are plenty of us.

[voice]

[got_it_memorizd]

[Oh, come now, you'll hurt his feelings. Fine, you don't want to play with video we'll go with voice all around.]

Gosh, that's convenient. If I'd known they were just givin' 'em out that sure would have made things easier a while back.

[voice]

[todomarishi]

[Better to hurt the feelings he used to insist he didn't have than to go looking for him with a shotlock charged up. Not that he would. Axel still sits more in the abrasive jerk - proceed with disapproving frown category than the start swinging on sight one Xigbar seems to delight in tiptoeing around.]

For stealing hearts and ruining worlds?

[Creaaaak goes the civility like so many loose boards underfoot.]

[voice]

[got_it_memorizd]

[There's a beat of silence--ouch, dude, that was uncalled for--and Axel supposes he's just stumbled across someone who had a bad experience with him last time he was here. Great, nothing like trying to make a second first impression.]

Heartbreaker though I may be I'm pretty sure I'd remember if I stole anyone's.

[voice]

[todomarishi]

I thought that's what the Organization did? Collected hearts?

[voice]

[got_it_memorizd]

I think you've gotten the wrong idea there, champ. Sure, maybe we collected them, but they'd already been stolen. I sure didn't have anything to do with that part.

That isn't what I meant anyway, for the record, when I said it'd've been convenient.

[voice]

[todomarishi]

That's not how I see it. Taking stolen hearts... Two wrongs doesn't make anything resembling a right, unless you meant to return those hearts to their rightful owners.

[He falls silent for a beat.]

Well, then... For the record, what did you mean?

[voice]

[got_it_memorizd]

Yes, yes, two wrongs don't make a right, but you know, three lefts do. But I digress.

[And then a snort.] Pfft, I'm not telling. You think I'm just gonna spill all my beans at the drop of a hat? I don't even know who you are~

[voice]

[todomarishi]

[Went clean over his head, that one.]

... Fine. I'll ask Roxas if he has any idea what you're going on about.

[voice]

[got_it_memorizd]

Or you could, you know, man up and tell me who you are and what infiltrated your posterior and died there and maybe we could try and actually get along. There's a novel idea.

[voice]

[todomarishi]

It might be novel, but I think I'll pass.

[voice]

[got_it_memorizd]

Rude, aren't you? Fine, suit yourself, but don't expect any second-chance olive-branches.

[click.]

[voice]

[todomarishi]

Olive branch would probably be on fire...

[Grumble sigh to a dead line as he also disconnects.]

Re: [voice]

[got_it_memorizd]

[Well now it would be. ;p]

[voice]

[todomarishi]

[This is definitely the start of a joyous friendship.]
