[After two nights of that insidious voice whispering his crimes in his ear, Roxas is starting to feel it. It's getting bad, now. In the dull, flickering glow of a small fire, Roxas looks .. bad. He's curled up in a heap on the floor, staring blankly into the flames ( Read more... )

[Sora looks beyond exhausted, a tremble in his hands and voice. He sounds far from being sure of what he's saying]

Hey. S'okay. Roxas. It's---it's okay.

Sora. [he sounds small and tired and sad and hurting and everything a Nobody probably shouldn't feel. maybe he's feeding off Sora a bit. maybe there's really some pain there. either way, he's breaking.]

Sora .. god, it's just -- I -- I'm trying.

[mustering up as much strength into his voice as possible, Sora looks straight at the Sphere, his image flickering in the light of the small lantern Riku brought him]

I would never leave you.

.... [so, so quietly] Sora. I -- I -- I know. I know...

[his breathing is strained, like he's fighting against tears .. or he's in pain, which he is, having bruised himself a bit with that rampage] At least-- .. yeah.

[this has been the hardest week Sora has had in a long, long time. His voice cracks]

You've---gotta believe me. I promise! I don't have anything else but my word, Roxas, and I swear. I swear.

[Oh jeez, what? Roxas scrambles around and eventually gets his flashlight turned on, then reaches up towards the Sphere with a look that borders on concern.]

Sora. I know. I believe you.

I wouldn't fail you like that, okay? Never. I promise. [just guess what the voice has been saying to him all night]

... [abruptly Roxas realizes that this isn't really about him at all. His expression softens as his brain switches gears, trying to think of ways to reassure Sora in turn]

It's telling you that, isn't it? .. it's not true. I know it's not. I know you'll be here, Sora. Just like I'll be here for you.

Just. Trust me. I trust you. You and Riku, you're---I'd never---never...

[he doesn't even know how to finish that thought, so he just nods jerkily]

[lets his eyes hood, looking so, so bone weary. the voices have been whispering to him about Sora, but his faith in his Other has been .. absolute.]

Sora. It's okay.

I know. [no matter what these voices have tried to tell them, there's still some kind of connection between Other and Nobody. It's unique, and while doubt may surface...they know]

... maybe you should do what I did. Helps to get the frustration out.

...break something?

[with black humor] Other than yourself, that is.

But yeah. Just .. went Keyblade happy. Not too bad. Not to mention the racket drowns out the voices.

I'm not going to break. Too many people are counting on me.

...I'll keep that in mind. I might.

... [he hadn't meant it quite like that, but the reassurance is good to hear anyway]

Yeah. Just be careful not to .. dislodge anything. [rolls his shoulder, which is sore from all that blunt impact]
