If the others realized that he read every note on the bulletin board to see if he could glean information off of them, would they let their notes be so open and obvious? After leaving his friends, Riku asked his nurse if he could watch the movie. She pointed out that he already spent time in the Sun Room, but he insisted on it. "I really like this movie," he said, and he even managed a smile
( ... )
He hadn't heard that, he simply hadn't. Xemnas couldn't be here -
- don't you want him to be? -
he couldn't have possibly followed Roxas to this world (and he still had no idea what world it was, or why he was here, or how he'd even gotten here, or how he could have possibly been here before and never recognized anything, or why the Keyblade was only half-working and he couldn't touch his element at all and -
it was way too much for one Nobody to deal with, especially one who had never lived his own life before. Decisions were always his to make now, and sometimes he didn't know what to do... or even what his options were. Living off of his orders had been easy only in the way that Roxas had always known what to do; when he'd left, it had been similar: find Sora and destroy Xemnas. And don't let anything get in the way.
Well, he'd failed one of those and succeeded in the other, and he still wasn't any closer to knowing what he should do.
The movie - whatever that was - would be a nice distraction, he decided, because whatever it
( ... )
"Yeah," came back his clipped answer as he leaned over to put his elbows on his knees, propping his head up and staring straight ahead to the screen. He must have come into the room a little late, because Roxas had no idea what was supposed to be happening in this movie. Jungle and... a blonde woman. Not a lot to go on.
There was a lot of talking, too, but he was going to concentrate on it. Anything was better to talking to this guy. Roxas was pretty easy going for the most part, but he hadn't exactly gotten on the Nobody's good side, stopping him from finding Xemnas and Sora.
He'd found the latter and nothing had even happened. Now, for Number I.
Though Roxas didn't know why the other was trying to talk to him (and despite the fact that he agreed with the comment), he grumbled, "I like it."
I like it.It was as if DiZ's familiar words and thoughts crept up into his mind all over again, preaching about how the Nobodies have no feelings, and seeming to enforce the cruel words and harsh behavior within Riku. He remembered how forcefully he grabbed Naminé from time to time, and the feeling of the Darkness swallowing him whole so he could win his fight with Roxas. What right did they have to live? They were merely pawns to DiZ. Every time, he felt out of place, as if he was playing a part, and it wasn't one he chose for himself. Then again, hadn't that been his entire life? Hadn't he just been a tool, when all he wanted was freedom and to see the outside world with his friends? He knew it was there and clung to it, and its ends always led to mistakes
( ... )
So, he wasn't working on getting on Roxas's good side, either. Well, that was just fine with him. He remembered the sour taste of defeat; it hadn't left his tongue since he'd lost the fight with this boy, who'd injected himself with darkness and leaked it out of his pores. It was his first true defeat, and it'd stopped him from getting to Xemnas - in fact, it'd been exactly what had led to him being here.
Did he have that sort of power? The surge of darkness hadn't been anything to shake a Keyblade at (well, it had, but that hadn't exactly worked completely(, but it didn't seem so powerful now.
"Whatever. Of course I know what's going on," he puffed up, sitting up straight in his seat. He didn't need to prove it. In fact, he wasn't going to... because he couldn't. But he wasn't letting this light-haired idiot get the one-up on him again. What was there to get, anyway? There was a giant monkey and he was in a jungle. And... some people were there. So maybe the monkey would eat them or something. How else could it end?
