Day 37 [text]

[seasalttwilight]

[So, a couple days back, Roxas got in a fight. Vanitas was being a jerk and punishing Dartanian the Charizard and Roxas, being a defender of pokemon, or at the very least, a typical shonen pokemon trainer, intervened because you need to be nice to your pokemon.

I thought I knew, but meeting you, Namine, Xion...

I think, maybe, it defies definition.

What do you mean? Seems like there's supposed to be a specific answer.

[her_mouse_jesty]

I thought without a heart, you couldn't feel. You couldn't care.

But the three of you have proved me wrong.

[seasalttwilight]

...I shouldn't be able to. Not with how things were explained.

text

[her_mouse_jesty]

Yet you are. And isn't just that important?

text

[seasalttwilight]

I'd like it to make sense. I don't like being confused all the time.

text

[her_mouse_jesty]

Why does it have to make sense?

text

[seasalttwilight]

I'd just like something to hang onto. Everything's confusing, when you really start thinking about it.

[her_mouse_jesty]

Not everything in life is going to make sense. I'm over eighty years old, and I still don't understand a lot in my life. But if you dwell on them, that is what will make you confused and unhappy. You should appreciate what you have.

You're that old? [selective reading skills at work. Still, her words make him think.]

[seasalttwilight]

I mean. I didn't. Sorry. You don't look it. You look younger. A lot younger. Prettier.

[Just flailing on the other end here. Strikes = deleted.]

[her_mouse_jesty]

[Smooth.]

... I often forget that age works differently in other worlds.

Regardless, my point still stands. We've lost the definition, and now we're creating a new one. There's not a doubt in my mind of what you're capable of.

text

[seasalttwilight]

[Isn't he though?]

Still. Sorry.

Then what's the new definition?

text

[her_mouse_jesty]

What do you think it is? What makes you, and Namine, and Xion, any different from the rest of us? the three of you can laugh and cry and care for people, just as anyone else here does.

We weren't supposed to exist though. We're anom weird.

[Yeah, that still weighs on him. And the deleted word is anomalies. There might be an issue in spelling.]
