[The handwriting is a little sloppy, as if this was jotted down in a hurry.]

Hey Spades--

Found some stragglers. I'm bringing them back to the ship.


[Private to Sora:]

Heads up...one of them is Roxas.

[It's also a familiar thing for him though not in the same way.]

The major problem would be that we don't get to know which option is it if any of those are true. Though I guess that depends on how much we want to get home at any cost, then not knowing may be the best thing for us.

[Voice]

[darknessinside]

Yeah, true. I guess it's a long way off anyway, figuring all that out. We have to even have all the shards first.

[Voice]

[uccellodifuoco]

And we don't even know how many of those are there. Or where they are.

[A pause.]

Or even if all of them can be found. Nothing says that one or several of them couldn't have been destroyed somehow over time.

[Voice]

[darknessinside]

[There's another pause, then Riku just lets out a short laugh.]

You're just a regular ray of sunshine, huh? Glass half empty kind of guy?

[Voice]

[uccellodifuoco]

No. Glass completely empty kind of guy. Or filled with poison.

[There's a heavy sigh.]

Experience does that kind of thing. And I have some at being taken from places and sent to fill the wishes of someone while being lied and fooled.

[Voice]

[darknessinside]

Hm. Well, not like it's a bad thing having someone around to keep us grounded.

We've got enough optimists on board, after all.

[Voice]

[uccellodifuoco]

I'm sure Selphie is enough to compensate for it.

[Voice]

[darknessinside]

Selphie's enough to compensate for the gloomiest of moody people on their absolute worst days.

[Voice]

[uccellodifuoco]

She's a ball of sunshine like that. Enough to burn a ship on her own if you let her.

[Voice]

[darknessinside]

Mm... Is she still trying to get close to you?

[Voice]

[uccellodifuoco]

You say that as if you expected her to actually stop.

[Aka: yes she is.]

[Voice]

[darknessinside]

...Yeah, I guess that's not likely, is it. Ah well.

[Voice]

[uccellodifuoco]

You know her better than me, or at least for longer even if you got separated.

[Or even if she's another version or whatever.]

Say, has she always been the type to not listen others? Or is that something she only does with me?

[Voice]

[darknessinside]

[Laughs.]

No, she's pretty stubborn. I can't tell you how many times we got stuck playing with her dolls growing up, even when it wasn't her turn to pick a game.

[Voice]

[uccellodifuoco]

You say that as if there were days in which she was around, and you still managed to get to play something else besides what she wanted.

[Yeah, no, he's getting a good idea.]

Fortunately she's not a bad kid, even if stubborn. When I was a kid we had to deal with one of those, she would treat us as slaves and demanded us to crawl and give her a ride as if we were horses. Well, she demanded that of the others, I never stuck around where she could get me.
