Ienzo was brought down when hearing this. "But isn't Ansem the Wise trying to study the heart? If emotions are a part of what make our hearts whole, then wouldn't we have to understand emotions before truly ever understand the heart?" Ienzo asked almost as if he were a curious child.
"I suppose you're right." Ienzo agreed. He felt good being around Myde, but it didn't seem right for him to completely abandon his work for him. Besides, he wasn't even too sure what love was to begin with, he had only assumed things out of desperation. "But, Evan... Have you ever felt confused about the way you felt for someone? Like you thought you knew what the feeling was, but weren't too sure?" He questioned.
"No, it's just that..." Ienzo paused, taking a deep breath. "A day or two before you got here, I left the lab to go outside... and I met someone there. His name is Myde, a sitar player. I'm just not sure if what I feel for him is right." Ienzo sighed. He wasn't sure if he should be ashamed that he put aside his old ways to be with the carefree sitar player, or if he should be ashamed that he was still putting his old ways over Myde.
Ienzo decided not to delay any further and check the reports he had rushed back to do. He sat there silently for awhile, Evan in the background studying and observing the heartless. But he couldn't take it anymore, he needed someone to talk to, someone to give him their opinion on the problems in his mind. He stood up and turned to Evan, a bit scared of what his answer would be to the problem, but the bottom line was that he still needed an answer.
"A nobody? Thats... diffirent." Ienzo thought to himself while observing the bag.
"I suppose." Ienzo answered trying to sound normal and unafraid again. But 'I hope' was what he was actually thinking in the back of his mind.
"Yes... I had noticed." Ienzo shivered, looking at the creatures pitch black form.
(OOC: Yes, I gave CFF the ok to be Xehanort. So no "OMG! Where'd he come from?!" okay? Just clearing that up for some of you. lol) Ienzo quickly turned to see Xehanort had came into the room behind him with him noticing. "Oh, Xehanort! Well, Evan appears to be growing an artificial heartless. I'm not too sure what he's discovered about it that excites him yet." He replied.
Ienzo looked at the creature, normally he would have been comfortable around them, but just the sight of this one scared him a bit. He had been around Myde for too long that he was no longer in an experimental frame of mind. He tried to look about it logically and understand what excited Evan so much about it's growth. "Yes, Evan... That's interesting." He replied awkwardly.
Ienzo quickly hurried back to the lab. He expected it to be empty like the day before, so when he rushed in and saw Evan's tall form lurking in the corner, he nearly screamed like a girl. "God, Evan... When did you get here?" Ienzo sighed trying to catch his breath.
Ienzo smiled when seeing the look on Myde's face. But the sun had fully risen and Ienzo knew that he couldn't avoid checking on those reports back at the lab any longer. "Myde, I have to get back to the lab. I really enjoyed spending time with you though." Ienzo kissed him softly before standing to leave.
Ienzo felt so comfortable with Myde, he even began to sing again. "These feelings are something I'll never regret. I was so cold and lonely before we had met. I no longer feel that way since you are here. Now I feel so perfect whenever your near." Usually Ienzo was so shy about his singing skills that he would only hum, but this time he believed the song deserved lyrics that expressed his feelings towards Myde.
"Mmm... Yes." Ienzo whispered. He now knew what Myde had meant by 'the will to play'. He kept telling Ienzo that if ever lost him he would also lose his will to play. Ienzo felt the same. The only way he could play well was when Myde was close, because Myde was his will to play.
Ienzo sighed softly, then tried his best to remember how to hold the intsrument correctly. After picking a few horrible off-tune notes, he tried to match up the sounds with that of the song. The tune came out softer and slower than the last time he had played it. He wanted to make Myde happy so he continued his attempt to play the song though he was still a little nervous.
Ienzo shivered and blushed brightly at Myde's touch.
"You heard how many mistakes I made in that song the last time I played it." Ienzo replied, a little shy and embaressed that he was asked to play.
(OOC: OMG we've reached 250 posts! Yay! Sorry, just seemed a little special to me.) Ienzo tried to hold Myde's sitar gently, hoping not to drop it or hold it too tightly. He'd only played it once so he was still unsure about the correct way to handle it. But he held onto anyway, seeing as how Myde was putting his trust into him.
"You aren't afraid I might drop or break it somehow?" Ienzo asked, surprised at how trusting Myde had become.
"Sure." Ienzo replied and smiled back.
"No, it's alright." Ienzo laughed. "It's hard not relating everything to logical terms when I've been experimenting for so long. Sometimes I just want to stop being so logical about things. Remember, I wanted to be around you because of the fact that you were so carefree."
