Sora clenched his fists more tightly, realizing that Roxas was referring to Castle Oblivion, when he had his memories erased by Namine. "Yes, I was," he said with a nod, his voice tense. "So what?" He had recovered from that; he overcame whatever false emotions he had for Namine during that time and saw her as his friend, just like it was meant to be.
We do. I'm not sure how we'll get there, though.
Namine looked up, seeing Roxas stand up off the couch when he yelled at Sora. She flinched at his tone, but otherwise, she stayed silent, too startled to say anything. Sora felt his gaze turn hard at the mention of Kairi, his eyebrows furrowing more deeply. "Leave her out of this, Roxas," he said in a low tone of voice, the words almost coming out as a growl. Sora didn't want Kairi anywhere near this conversation, and he was angry that Roxas had brought her up when there was no need to involve her.
Okie dokie then. xD By the way, how long do you want this current argument to go on?
Sora looked up, disbelief in his facial expression. "Why are you letting this affect you so much?" he asked, arching a brow. "It doesn't matter who you were when you were in the Organization; you can be whoever you want to be right now. Your past doesn't have to govern your future, Roxas!" He clenched a fist as he spoke, feeling a little hypocritical. His past was affecting him as well, though he didn't show it as much as Roxas showed his new personality.
I guess not. It would be kind of weird to try and fit it in now, you know? Especially with Sora being injured and sitting on the couch already. xP
Namine looked to Roxas, concern in her eyes. Roxas had gained memories back as well? Those memories must have been from his time in Organization XIII. She didn't know much about that period of time, and she had never even thought to ask if he recalled it or not. She had never known that it was that big of a deal, until now. Sora furrowed his eyebrows, looking down at the floor now. "Is that really such a bad thing that we're connected?" he asked softly, hearing the pure bitterness in Roxas's voice. "I know bad things came out of it recently, but what about all the good things?" They were best friends, and that natural connection had helped them bond in a lot of ways.
This could head one direction or another: Sora could storm out of Kairi's house in anger, or he could break down in front of her and he could...
Namine lifted her head, looking from Roxas to Sora in confusion. Sora...gained his memories back? So he knew what occurred in Castle Oblivion? She kept her sky blue eyes on him, the questions forming in her mind. What did this mean? Sora blinked at Roxas's tone, but he answered without harboring any anger against his friend in his own voice. "No, I wasn't," he responded honestly. Roxas got memories back over a longer period of time, and from what Sora could gather, they weren't good memories.
When Roxas hears all of that, he's stunned and backs away from Sora. Sora can holler at him and say something like "Are you happy now?!" before he...
Namine drew in a sharp breath at the name, lowering her gaze to her lap. Castle Oblivion? What were those two talking about? She was extremely curious now, since she had been forced to do some unpleasant things while she was there. "Castle Oblivion," Sora said with a nod, eyebrows furrowed as he stared down at the couch. He hated that place, and it showed in his voice. The Organization had manipulated him, and they almost succeeded in making him their puppet. The memories angered Sora greatly, even if he didn't allow all that anger to surface at that moment.
Roxas: So, did you meet anybody new? Sora: I saw a few old friends, but I didn't see many new people. Roxas: But you did see some, right? Sora...
"I know how you feel about what happened," Sora said softly, diverting his gaze to the couch beneath him as he spoke. "I went through something a lot like it, remember?" Of course, he was referring to Castle Oblivion, where he had regained a lot of unpleasant memories and created a lot of awful ones as well.
Nice. xD I know. xP But anyway, Kairi is on the phone with Roxas and asks him to talk to Sora and figure out what happened in the two months were...
Sora blinked, seeing that Roxas was trying to calm down. He could see why he was worked up; Sora remembered how much pain Roxas had been in when he was recovering his memories. But the time had also been very hard on Sora--Castle Oblivion wasn't a pleasant experience. "Just don't forget that you weren't the only one who suffered during that time, Roxas," Sora said in a calm, low voice. "We all did."
Alrighty. ;3 But first, are you feeling better? Here's what I came up with: After Kairi is alright with Sora and she starts thinking about his...
Yeah, I don't know either. =/ I came up with another idea where Roxas can possibly reinjure Sora's ankle. It would happen before we jumped into...
Sora furrowed his eyebrows in seriousness, able to see that Roxas was seething with anger. "I know," he said honestly. "It was hard on all of us; especially you. But there's nothing any of us can do to change that now." He wanted Roxas to put the past behind him, and he actually wanted the same for himself. He wanted to move forward, but the past was in the way. Namine looked from Sora back to Roxas, not knowing what they were talking about. Roxas had never opened up as to what happened during those two months, and she had wisely left the topic alone. But now that it seemed to be coming into the open, she didn't know what to expect.
Wasn't he going to push Sora against the wall or something?
Namine was forced to move when Roxas did, her arm moving away from Roxas's stomach when he withdrew his arm and leaned forward. Roxas, please, she pleaded silently, watching him cautiously. Sora was under enough stress; he didn't need his best friend flipping out at him too. Sora blinked, sitting up a little bit as he looked at Roxas. "I couldn't have changed any of this; you know that," he told his friend, trying to calm him down. Sora wished he could take it back or change it in some way; Kairi was hurt because of everything, as were Roxas and Namine. Sora was hurting too, but he was trying not to let his friends see that.
