Re: Recovering muse voice/the small possibility of picking up a third game

[lethechained]

It's been a long time, hasn't it? Since you've been able to hear me this clearly.

It's so good to speak to you again. Or at least - to be able to be heard. -- No, I'm not angry. I know you were trying all of that time. It's bound to happen every now and again...! But now my voice is back, and with any luck, it'll stay that way.

Except-- I'm not sure about adding a game, and I know you aren't, either. You and I still have so much to do in the worlds I already live in. But... if you do find the right place, and I do get sent somewhere else, that's okay, too. I know we'll have fun either way.

Told you you woke him up. ♥

Mundanes rarely take our opinions into account, you know.

♥ ♥ ♥ That you did!

[-- Ah. ... If she were a younger muse, perhaps she'd be more troubled by his appearance, but as it is, she just offers a wan smile.]

I know. She'll do want she wants to, no matter what I say. I've been with her long enough to know that. But-- it doesn't hurt to try. Besides, I've got a lot of time to make up for.

I ain't one to hose someone else's parade, but wouldn't it be better to let results speak for you instead?

[lethechained]

[Head tilt.] Which ones? The results of my voice being back, or of adding another game?

[ Oh, come on now, he never wanted to hurt Naminé. If anything, he thought Marluxia's approach when it came to her was doomed to failure from the beginning. ]

All of us do, here. Me, you, the Superior, Sora, Roxas, Xion, Kairi, Marluxia, Larxene... perhaps even the Seeker of Darkness.

It's interesting that you're so open-minded about it.

[Perhaps not, but that doesn't mean she thinks she can trust him. He didn't do anything to stop it, after all - and frankly, she wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if he was inclined to use her for his own ends, whatever those might be at the time. Still, all that is of little consequence in a place like this.]

After so long, I don't think I could be any other way. If I always tried to hold on to control I never really had in the first place, it would only cause trouble. Besides-- I don't mind what she chooses for me. She's been good to me all this time. Even if I get hurt sometimes, or if bad things happen to me, everything else usually makes up for it. [Naminé's an easy person to please, really. Most things are a step up from the way her life was going before.]

[risingshepard]

The former. Your mun still needs to make the conscious effort of 'tossing you around', as mine puts it.

[lethechained]

Of course...! I haven't forgotten, and neither has she. Taking a moment to talk about it was part of trying to make sure that things stay better, so that I can help her do those other things, too.

[warrantsahello]

Nice to see you've adopted some degree of optimism. [ He always knew she was a bit more special than most other Nobodies, but being able to think positively is something most of the Organization would actually like. If, you know. That were possible. ]

This place has changed you, hasn't it? It's made you stronger.

[lethechained]

Optimism... and experience, I think. [It's not all blind faith - and this part of her life has been several times longer than her original lifetime, after all.]

... You could say that. [Her smile strengthens subtly.] It's helped me realize things that were there all along - or at least, that's what my mun thinks. But you're right; this place and all the other places she's sent me - they've all been good to me, too. They've given me chances to grow, and to be happy.
