[Voiced]

[This starts with a sound of Aros sniffing something for once. It's an odd sound because it doesn't sound like he's doing the air so much as... feeling for something else. There's been an increase in the amount of darkness here recently and he doesn't like it. He's been stalking Riku on and off since he (Riku) showed up from a distance

...they're coming in faster, aren't they?

[way_to_midnight]

Yes.

[perplex_me]

What do you think?

[way_to_midnight]

Sora didn't meet them all.

[perplex_me]

Nope. Which ones didn't he meet?

[way_to_midnight]

Vexen. Zexion.

[Pause, and a little hiss]

Also, Xigbar, Axel. [This tone clearly demands to know if there are others he missed]

[perplex_me]

Think that's it for now. Unless you can sense something I can't.

[way_to_midnight]

Kairi. Riku.

[perplex_me]

I've talked to Riku a few times, but I didn't know Kairi was here.

Think Sora knows yet?

[way_to_midnight]

He should.

[Aros logic: Riku and Kairi and Sora are all bonded forever so he HAS to know, right?]

[perplex_me]

He's still not back.

[way_to_midnight]

I can hear him. [--Which is good enough for Aros. He's alive somewhere it it doesn't matter what condition Sora's pulse is in or how fainting he hears him because it's Sora and nothing can beat him]

[perplex_me]

Good. [shares the same sentiment]

...are you avoiding them?

[way_to_midnight]

...No. [He's stalking Riku, but for now he's avoiding Kairi. He's not ready for her just yet, and he's only barely ready for Riku]

[perplex_me]

Just curious. Where have you been anyway?

[way_to_midnight]

[No answer. Just a no-committing chirp. He doesn't want to say stalking Riku in-between going home, because that would be odd]
