Shibuya's parallels are affected. Whatever this is, it's spreading- A certain young lady from your favourite detour in the world's been brought over to join the fun. There goes the theory on Refinement playing a part in this, by the way.

...

I hope you've found something by now. Anyway, give me a call when you can.

[filtered → Sora.]

I don't suppose you feel like a field trip?

And no-one's told you that it's a pretty bad idea to judge every world's version of a person by one guy? Wow.

[heartdive]

I didn't think I was.

[ your teasing. it's going over his head. ]

None of you guys make it easy on me, though.

[whitefeather]

This isn't easy for you, either?

It's not like we can help existing, Sora. No more than you can, actually. Maybe there's another you out there.

I didn't mean it like that. It's like, I know you guys aren't the same. But there are things a lot of things, really that are the same.

And I really wouldn't want you guys to stop existing. It's kinda neat, you know, if you really think about it.

[heartdive]

But, uh, I guess you could technically say that there's another me. I don't think of him as me and he looks nothing like me...

He is my Nobody, though.

It's the nature and nurture argument all over again. Maybe. It's not like I can stop you thinking a certain way after the time you spent with another me, so why bother trying? Think what you want, Sora.

[It's not like it means anything, after all.But there's a small laugh in response to his comment about alternates. Oh, they sure are. Sora's response to it isn't anything he'd expect from most humans. But. It's not like it's a bad thing. Quite the opposite, actually.]

[And suddenly his voice sounds way more interested. Of course, he knows Sora isn't subject to his world's laws. But an existence which floats between worlds is a special one - by the laws of any world. So of course he's curious.]

So he acts like you?

[heartdive]

I don't think I'm going to just think what I want. Personally? I want to get to know you. So I really don't mean to constantly compare. But it is kinda neat to see what's the same and what's different.

[ cue the nervous laugh. ]

To be honest? I really don't know much about Roxas. He doesn't seem like a bad guy. His friends are just as important to him as mine are. Would do anything for them, just like I would. I've felt what he's been through, but I've never really had the chance to talk to him.

[whitefeather]

That's a relief.

[A small laugh. That might be a thank you, Sora. Maybe. Either way, he's content to leave that right there. As for Sora's musings on Roxas, there's a thoughtful hum.]

Hmmm. Who knows. Maybe you will some day. Or at the very least, there might be another him you can talk to. It depends if you want it enough. It's not like I know how your world works or anything - but if you're capable of breaking through worlds, there's no stopping you with anything. Not really.

[heartdive]

I want to talk to him. To meet him. If he really feels like only one of us can exist, then I need to show him that's not true.

[whitefeather]

I'm sure you will one day.

... Anyway, are we done?
