[Roxas, pale and unsettled, is on the screen with a frown on his face. He's fingering his collar, slipping it around and around and around.

His voice is quiet, but full of weight.]

Everyone's saying goodbye, right?

[He lifts up his other hand, just enough to be in view, and twists around his wedding ring too, staring down at it. Then, quickly, blue ( Read more... )

[Elle smiles brightly, and she nods]

I'm just glad... somebody else has hope. We can do this. We can make it.

[video] shardsofmemory January 28 2012, 01:47:48 UTC

I don't get how everyone can say that we're going to do this and then say goodbye like it will fail.

[video] elle_holloway January 28 2012, 23:14:05 UTC

I don't think they're thinking it'll fail. Maybe it's more like... just in case it does, they want to be sure they've said everything they need to say to the people they love.

[video] shardsofmemory January 29 2012, 19:38:31 UTC

Yeah, but saying that is just like saying "we think we're gonna fail!"

[video] elle_holloway January 30 2012, 20:43:06 UTC

The way I see it, it's more like insurance. Even though we can do this, there's no guarantee a few of us... aren't going to fall in the process.

[video] shardsofmemory February 1 2012, 07:26:09 UTC

Even if we do, we're going to come back. That's the thing. It's not goodbye and it's not going to not work. If we start acting like we'll fail... [Roxas only protests because he's nervous; it shows in the pallor of his face and the way he clenches his hands tight in the fabric of his jeans]

[video] elle_holloway February 1 2012, 07:40:01 UTC

[Elle recognizes that and she smiles a little]

You know, worrying about it isn't a sign of weakness.

[video] shardsofmemory February 1 2012, 07:48:49 UTC

I'm not-- [But Roxas is a terrible liar. He sighs] ...I can't even really worry. Don't have a heart. So it's nothing.

[video] elle_holloway February 1 2012, 07:54:45 UTC

[her expression softens]

You don't have a heart?

[video] shardsofmemory February 1 2012, 08:04:18 UTC

[He just shrugs] Nope. I'm a Nobody.

[video] elle_holloway February 1 2012, 08:10:09 UTC

A Nobody? Is it... okay if I ask what that is?

[video] shardsofmemory February 1 2012, 14:58:39 UTC

It's fine. I wouldn't have mentioned it if I wanted to keep it a secret, right? [He offers her a small smile, apparently unperturbed by... any of this] A Nobody's what happens when a person with a strong heart gives in to the darkness, or a Heartless steals their heart. We're the leftover body and soul, since the heart is gone.

[video] elle_holloway February 3 2012, 12:04:11 UTC

[she listens to him speak and as he goes on, her face falls a little bit]

That must be really sad, having no heart. I mean, I'm sure you're used to it but it can't be easy.

How did this happen to you?

[video] shardsofmemory February 5 2012, 05:44:39 UTC

It's.. I don't know. I guess I am used to it.

It happened because my Other gave up his heart to the darkness to save someone really important to him.

[video] elle_holloway February 6 2012, 20:31:59 UTC

[she pauses for a moment]

Well, that's beautiful. I mean... if it has to happen, that seems like a better reason than most.

[video] shardsofmemory February 7 2012, 04:43:45 UTC

[Roxas just smiles] Yeah. And then he came back, which doesn't usually happen.
