Thirtieth Keychain ღ Voice//Actions to Treehouse

[A few deep breaths before she actually speaks. She sounds kind of off, like she's not as energetic.]

...For those who don't know... It would appear Xion's gone home.

[It takes all of Sora's strength to not let her voice crack. She'll be fine. She has to be.]

I'm... Sure she'll be happy, wherever she is. With memories of here.

[And that's all Sora can bring herself to say before leaving the vine and going to the kitchen to clean and maybe make lunch. The treehouse feels empty without Xion, and she's not sure what she wants to do in that respect. Maybe she'll go stay somewhere else for a little while.]

Oh no...

Um... do you need anything? Do you want company?

I, um, lost someone, too.

I'll be fine. Xion... Would want me to keep moving forward.

Just... you don't need to do it alone, OK? Anytime you need someone.

[She takes a deep breath.]

I'm sorry. You guys... this really sucks.

I'll see her again someday.

[Sora has to have faith she will.]

So... I'll be fine.

[...That one's a lie.]

Hopefully. [She gives a genuine smile, if a weak one.]

That's a lie and you know it. Offer stands, though. We can hang out and cry into slices of cake or something.

Oh...

Yes, I hope so as well.

I'm sure she'll... Be thinking of us.

[Another lie. Because Xion's dead, but Sora doesn't want anyone to worry.]

And we'll be thinking of her!

When did you first find out?

Xion lived with me. We... We were together. And I couldn't find her even after looking.

Do you know what she returned to?

Xion?

[Kuja knows very well what happened to Xion.]

Are you certain?

[And Kuja speaks, then, out of bitterness:] I'm sure she won't be happy. Wherever she is. She only wished to stay here.

[Sora's going to filter this one, Kuja. :C She doesn't blame bitterness at all.]

I know. But there's nothing we can do. She... Wouldn't want anyone to worry about her like that.

[Though Sora's pretty much on the verge of a complete emotional breakdown, despite her smiles.]

Yes, I'm sure she wouldn't want anyone to be upset. [Not that Kuja sounds like she's agreeing.] So you intend to lie to all the others here? Maybe they should know the truth of what happened.

The Queen shouldn't have sent her away. I still remain here, and I want to go to my fate.

[Kuja looks displeased, not that that's a rare state.] She should bring her back.

It's better than everyone knowing she doesn't have anything to go back to. But you're right... She shouldn't have been sent back. Not to...

[...Not to not existing.]

How is that better? They should know what the Queen has done. Otherwise they'll simply continue on as they are.

Yes, to nothingness. You might as well say it.

[Kuja: not the best grief counselor.]

It's not my place to tell people that. It's Xion's business to say she has nothing to go home to. Not mine.

[No she's not.]

Now that she's gone, it isn't her business, because she's not here to make that choice.

Who's to stop me from saying it? I can, if I wish. Perhaps I will.

She wouldn't want that and you know it, Kuja. She wouldn't... She wouldn't want people to be sad. She'd want them to remember the good times.

Do I know that? Maybe I disagree with her. We didn't often agree.

Maybe I don't wish to lie.

[Maybe she's mad and feels bad, so other people should feel bad too!]

...You're not the only one who misses her. And you're not the only one hurting.

[Sora's sighing. Congrats, Kuja, you actually managed to get through a bit.]

...It's not fair that she had to go.

Did I say I missed her? Did I say I hurt? Don't assume I feel the same.

[It's true, though.]

I'm tired of pretty lies when death comes to us all. I told her this place was cruel, but she didn't listen. She only wanted to stay, and even that was taken from her.

If you want people to remember her, why shouldn't they remember the truth? What was done to her?

It's the way you talk, Kuja.

And Xion wouldn't want that, Kuja. Her wishes should be respected.

How I talk is my affair. I admit--I didn't want her to leave. Since she was happy here, why should she have to go?

Very well. I'll respect them, unless someone asks me directly. But I won't enjoy it.
