from the monster before, to the monster of Now

Who: Saix & Aerith
What: Welllll, Saix kinda kidnapped Aerith when he was in reboot mode. Time to let her go now.
Where: Begins in the depths of the Castle That Never Was, proceeds to Aerith's church.
When: Midnight.
Warnings: AWKWARDNESS.



The first thing that occurs to him when the memories return are what he's done to Axel, first and foremost. Beating him, and dragging him before Xemnas. Watching on as the Superior transformed him into a meaningless Dusk. Staying by Xemnas's side, even when Larxene and Marluxia overpowered him -- causing Saix to retreat.

It was a called back to the being that he used to be, that nothingness that had once been Saix -- as opposed to the Saix of now, who stares over his shoulder at what was and briefly wishes he could sense some sort of regret.

Later, it occurs to him that he had kidnapped a woman in pink named Aerith.

...Oops.

For the course of a few days, Saix had treated her well enough, but only in the cold comfort a man can give to an unwanted animal. Every few hours, he'd leave Aerith soup, and exit.

Her room he'd left for her was plain and pure white, stainless and boring in all of its bleak glory. A shower, a towel, and a cot are its offerings.

Saix appears again to her as he steps through a portal, his brows knitted in deep thought. Much unlike the expressionless Nobody who has appeared to her throughout the past few days.

No, right now, the Lunar Diviner almost seems to be acknowledging a potential sensation inside.
