[Roxas doesn't answer at first. His mind is still jumbled. For one thing, he just went through something incredibly difficult to swallow, and here he was in a different world completely lost and standing beside Riku who is telling him that he does just disappear after all. Naminé must have been right when she said he should have never existed. He does exist though, he's been alive for awhile.
It isn't Roxas' fault that he showed up in Twilight Town, outside the mansion. He didn't even have any of Sora's memories then. He was just so empty. The way his chest constricts now, the way he's feeling about everything, he almost wishes he was left like that. Organization XIII...was a bad thing. Naminé told him that much. What he's done hasn't been good then. Why didn't anyone tell him that?
It's Axel that's helped him all this time, Axel who explains everything to him because he has no past life to remember. Sora didn't give it to him, like Axel's Somebody gave him his memories, at least Roxas thinks that's how it works. He's not entirely sure.
If he never should have existed, why does he? What do all of those experiences mean? Sitting on the clock tower with Axel, eating sea salt ice cream after his missions. Did that mean nothing?
At some point, his memory begins the blur at the edges. There are some things he's forgetting, but he left the Organization and ran into Riku. Riku defeated him and then he was sent to have his vacation.
But that isn't real either, is it? Hayner, Olette, Pence, do they even know him or is it all an illusion? What about Naminé? Riku mentioned her, so she must exist somehow. Whatever just happened, it's so confusing and he just doesn't know what to think.
Here he is in a strange place, with water and beaches and Riku confirming what he's worried about. Being part of Sora is still scary, still something he's uncertain about but he was going to do it. He had to, because he had to fix Sora, even if he doesn't know why. In the end, he guesses he did do it, didn't he? Sora woke up and was fine. That's nice in a way.
At least Naminé is okay, if he gets to see her all the time. It was so hard to go see her in the mansion, it's good to know it gets easier and that she was right about them meeting again.
All of this runs through his mind and mostly he's frowning and looking down at the water. His expressions are telling, he's going from upset to frustrated and back to upset. For a Nobody, he's incredibly expressive. He finally speaks, his voice soft.]
At least Sora is okay.
[It's all over for him, so there's no point in pretending otherwise. It sounds like Axel isn't a Nobody anymore. Axel has a heart. He's jealous, and there's something in his throat. Is he sad? Sad and scared. That's it.]
