Xemnas... your dad's really weird. But he gave me Sea Salt ice cream!! That stuff's really good, how come we don't have any of that in the kitchen?

I uhh... made you some cookies today... I read somewhere that today was a ... Holiday? Easter was it? I don't know... but um... yeah, they're chocolate cookies. I burnt a few... but I think the others

My dad?....

....

IS THAT OLD FOOL TELLING YOU THAT HE IS MY DAD???
WE HAVE NO CONNECTION AT ALL!
He's just some old man I gave 20 munny to on the street >>;;;

And that ice cream is poison... you should not take ice cream from him... if you want some Sea Salt Ice Cream I will go buy you some real kind...

[masteransem]

Ohhh Xehanort, don't tell my grandson such rubbish! We are too connected, I am almost like your father! And you never gave me any munny, stop lying, that's a really bad habit you know! And I'll have you know, my ice cream is not poisoned, it is just absolutely delicious and you should have some, you clearly need the sweet tartness of Sea Salt ice cream to clear your day up!

[xemnass]

My day is always cloudy and dark when your around >>...

And when did you decide to be my so called father? What ever happen to the assistant you hated so much and ignored? You wonder why I got rid of you... did you ever HAPPEN to think why I did what I did?

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree they say...

[masteransem]

Ahh Xehanort, always the little down in the dumps one, you were. Have you not yet grown out of your teenage angst? I suppose you haven't, such a pity for someone as intelligent as you were to waste away their lives as a nobody like this.

If you are the apple, and I the tree, then why didn't you end up better? I'm fairly certain, that if I were such a tree, I would not produce such rotten fruit.

[xemnass]

Waste my life away? What other choice do I have? I can no longer live just a normal life...

[private to Master Ansem]
Rotten? YOU DID THIS TO ME! You know how often I tried to speak to you? You know how many experiments and research I did and tried to show you my work but all you ever did was ignore me... you paid more attention to Ienzo... as if HE were your son...

Yet, you took me in... and allowed me a place to stay... but you never paid any attention to me... I was always agreeing with you... no matter how wrong you were... I respected you...

But you broke my trust... along with my spirit... one experiment after another...

A failure... that is all you ever called me...[private]

[masteransem]

You have plenty of other choices, but the fact that you let yourself become this way because of what happened so many years ago is proof of how weak is. I would've thought that you as smart as I thought you were, you would've come out better. Maybe if you would've tried harder to make yourself noticed, or not been licking my boots you would've been awknowledged.

[xemnass]

[Private to Master Ansem]
Licking your boots? Is that what you call loyalty?

I was weak as Xehanort...

But I am no longer he... I am much more than I ever was... tell me. why have you come back? Why have you decided to haunt my very existence?

What is your purpose Ansem the Wise?

Do not feed me false information either... I would truly like to know why you have returned...

Revenge for the one who banished you?

Forgiveness?

What?

[masteransem]

Perhaps I should've chosen a set of different words, but no matter. But I am right, you were weak as Xehanort, aside the fact that you were mind-numbingly intelligent, you were easily manipulated--take for example the darkness. You let the darkness swallow you so easily back then. Youths nowadays have no sense of self or respect, such a shame. As for my purpose, I'm not at liberty to disclose that imformation to you, of all people, for if I do, my plans will be foiled by you and your cahorts. Though I find it amusing that you truly believe that you banished me. Boy, no, how wrong you are. You never banished me, reasons for my leave are personal, it did have nothing to do with you and your 'exile'. As for forgiveness, I believe that's in your rage to be asking for, not I.

[xemnass]

What could I have done back then? What other choice did I have but to turn to the darkness for comfort… I knew nothing of the person I was or where I had even came from… The darkness was comfort to me… the comfort that you could never possibly showed for me…

Hmph banished… you ran… ashamed… and did you not hide yourself in the darkness as well?

As for you being here… I will find out… and I will not ask for your forgiveness… because I know in my soul even if I were to it would not be received by the likes of you…
