001 Written Hello

[heartismyown]

 I've found out this book is connected to all kinds of people, and it's not private to me.

So I should say 'hi' then. My name is Roxas. My best friend is Axel Lea and he's here with me. 

What kind of people are out there? Who are you? Do you like sea salt ice cream?

[These are very important questions.]

Write me back, okay?

Oh, I haven't really thought about it. Lea won't tell me anything about his heart.

[darknessinside]

You asked him about it? What kind of answers were you looking for?

[written]

[heartismyown]

I ask him about a lot of things. I wanted to know what it's like being a heart-person now, and how he got his heart back, and what happened, and then the guy who pushed me in the water asked me a lot of questions and I have to ask Lea those ones when I get a chance.

[heartismyown]

Seems like that, yeah.

[whiteas]

Wouldn't that completely offset any future you had into something else just by knowing?

I'm sure you'll remember eventually. When you do I can always answer.

[heartismyown]

Thanks Kairi! I'll ask you when I remember.

[heartismyown]

[There's a bit more of a pause before he writes back.]

No, because when I go back, I disappear.

[darknessinside]

...Oh.

Yeah, good, you keep going to him with that stuff.

[written]

[heartismyown]

He won't tell me, I don't think.

[whiteas]

See, this is what I meant by that ruby being horrible!

[ Okay, it's a bit of a subject change, but it feeds into her theory okay!! ]

If someone gets that ruby, they can't wish for everyone to go home or they'd be making a bunch of people who can't help it die or disappear by force. It'd have to be an individual wish, which means the rest of us all get stuck.

[ In a way, it's like saying she doesn't want him to disappear though so that's good, right? ]

[heartismyown]

Ruby? What ruby?

[Hmm, a wish for everyone to go home. It's a moment or two before he continues.]

I think I have to go back though. If I don't go back then Sora can't wake up. As much as I feel like I'm my own person Namine says I'm not. I'm just a part of him. I'm kind of just glad I get to spend some more time hanging out with Lea before then. I've met Sora though. He's a nice guy. He's okay with me being here at least, but I don't really think things can just...change.

[whiteas]

The ruby that everyone's after here! There's a plaque on the fountain. I don't know if it's real or not but enough people seem to think it is. If you gather all the shards, you get a wish. That's what everyone says anyway.

[ She's still not sure she buys it, but for now it's all she's got to go on. Until she can convince someone else to start investigating other ways with her, at least. ]

That's great for you, but I'm sure not everyone is going to have some benefit from going back.
