So, it's time, right? I mean... A few weeks is all that's left before you can finally get back to all of us. I know you were thinking about retiring me, but I've gotta say, I thought you were smarter than that. I've been around more than anybody else! Did you really think you were gonna get rid of me so easily?

I don't care if it's been two years or ten! I'm not going anywhere!

[limitstorm]

Heh.

I can't believe I was actually worried.

[journeybroken]

Wow, you were worried?

[limitstorm]

[ urk ]

One less Roxas, one more Sora sad you aren't around.

[ that's his story and he's sticking to it. ]

[journeybroken]

Yeah, sure. I believe you.

[...]

You got a haircut, didn't you?

[It's really been that long.]

[limitstorm]

... yeah, I did. Looks better this way, I guess.

[ maybe. he's not sure. ]

You weren't here for... everything, huh.

[journeybroken]

... No. I guess not. Things really changed, didn't they?

[limitstorm]

Not too much. Sora's still Sora, you're still you.

[restlesswings]

Maybe she— or he— thought you deserved a rest after all your years of hard work.

[journeybroken]

I think it's probably the other way around, actually. But break time's over!

[restlesswings]

Oh, really? You certainly seem to be up for another adventure.

[journeybroken]

Of course I am! I've never liked sitting around doing nothing. Don't you like getting out?

[restlesswings]

Of course, I do. I'm a traveller... I never stay in the same country longer than three days.

What do you do for a living?

[journeybroken]

I guess you could say I travel, too.

[restlesswings]

Really? Of the places you've visited, if you had to pick a favourite, which would it be?

[ceded]

.... Roxas. [ Sorta. Hesitant. Do you know who I am .... ]

[journeybroken]

... Xion. [Smile on his face says yes. This here Roxas has been through quite a lot, memory regain included.]

[ceded]

[ She hesitates, uncertain of what to say, and then a smile flickers across her face. She can't help it. ]

... you remember. It's so good to see you, Roxas. I hope your mun doesn't retire you. I haven't gotten to see you in ... a long time.

[journeybroken]

[Hearing her words, his eyes gain a sadness to them. He's as expressive as ever.]

Really? Why not? Am I not there where you are..?

[ceded]

[ She shakes her head slowly. ]

No. And it's been almost-- [ Xion pauses, considering. ] Actually... it's been over a year.

[ She steps forward to take one of his hands and give it a squeeze. Last time she did something like that it embarrassed him, but, well... she's missed him a lot. ]

So seeing you, when you know how I am... it makes me so happy.

[journeybroken]

[His cheeks do heat up, but he's used to affection at this point. He looks happy about it, to be honest.]

I'm glad I can see you, too. Anywhere I've been, you've always been the hardest person to find...

[ceded]

[ Oh! .... well, then she won't let to right away. Instead she grins, swinging their linked hands a little. ]

That's funny. I thought you were the hard one to find! Hehe. Roxas, now that we're together again, we should get ice cream!

[darkened]

Sheesh, you sure seem happy about getting dragged outta the dust and right back into the fire.

[Please pardon this smirking brat over here. He's been in a similar situation recently.]

[journeybroken]

Who likes collecting dust? At least the fire isn't boring!

[darkened]

You can say that again, and I'd sure take it over being dead.

[Heh. Good to see that they're on the same page so far.]

Just hope your mun doesn't fling you somewhere where talking monsters have to do all the fighting for you. It seems like such a waste.

[Not that he's got anything against his Digimon. He's just stubborn.]

[journeybroken]

What? Why would you let someone else fight your battles?

[The idea seems to put Roxas off, that's for sure.]
