[ He doesn't know how it happened, or when it even started to happen but he does know that this feeling of just peace had enveloped him, shielding him from the unknown feelings of fear and anxiety. Like floating along in a calm pond or lake, basking in the light that shines through the tree leaves and just the overall warmth that a summer day brings. It's a stark contrast to the feelings that coursed through him before and though there's a distinct line, he still doesn't know how or when or even why.

Right now, he knows he's waiting for something; someone?

And at least he knows he's not alone, feeling Ventus' presence like it's right here with him. A connection that goes much deeper than the mere feeling of being in the same room together, even sitting next to each other. It's something deeply rooted and he takes comfort in the feeling that the loneliness from before is gone

[ and he didn't have to wait at all.

At first, it was crippling blackness. it felt like ice, trapped in an icy prison where all his limbs were stone and he couldn't even think of breathing. like a tomb, one he'd never wake up from. panic seized his already tired Heart. was he destined to be there forever? maybe...

no. he refused, and his feelings of valor, of friendship, made the ice surrounding his Heart fade, melt away, and his Heart shone like a beacon. it beckoned others. and the two hearts that joined him, now linked as they fell through the darkness, all shined together. Ven, Roxas, and Sora.

the darkness faded to light--glowing light and florescent glass and dark structures. and he was the last one there, just as he had been the last to fall out of all three of them.

he opened his eyes to see their backs. ]

Roxas...? Ven...? [ --!! ]

Roxas! Ven! [ and he jumped to them, tugging both of them into a hug at alternate times, overjoyed by their appearance. ]

[Just like before, Sora's heart leads them all in. The space they find themselves is peaceful, at least until Sora's voice is echoing through it with a tone of utter delight, and Ventus' heart warms at the quick embrace, arms going round Sora for a brief moment before he looks over at Roxas, and smiles.]

[He has the feeling Roxas knew he was there too.]

Sora. Roxas. [He stretches, yawning, before slumping down to the ground, leaning back on his hands and grinning up at the both of them. The smile fades substantially at his next words, however.]

So we all--?

[dualstance]

Wha-?

[ The sudden feel of arms wrapping around him breaks him out of the sleepy haze that he's been under since who knows when. It brings back to where he- they presently are, familiar image under his feet and that warm connection that he thought he had lost. A second later and he's returning that embrace to Sora, his brother, before looking over to Ventus and giving a small smile.

Never before has he felt this at peace, this complete, than he has at this moment. ]

Hey guys. [ His voice is softer, just a bit solemn, but only those who really knows him would find the difference. There's a reason they're all here, isn't there? Both him and Ventus had been waiting, true, and now they know why they were waiting. But the next question is how.

Blue eyes look off to the side, already knowing the answer without anyone saying anything. ]

I think so. We.. wouldn't be here if we didn't, right?
