[That's. Actually a pretty good idea. Sure, he was himself again in no small part because of Sora, but, well.
They'd never really been on good terms, so there had been no reason for him to reach out without prompting. But Sora reaching out was... very Sora. So it was hard to mind, and he pauses mid-stride to wait for him to catch up.]
[He was also in the middle of adjusting to having a heart again after over a decade, and fumbling his way through suddenly having a much larger friend group - and having people around who considered him a friend, who had only recently considered him an enemy... or an ally at best, but never a friend.
Happily ever after it might have been, but it wasn't exactly all sunshine and rainbows, either.]
But, hey, it's actually pretty nice here. The city is really providing for us and even if there's big monster plants and weird transformations to my body...
I've literally dealt with both of those things before.
Well... Axel did it to himself. [It had been a pretty upsetting thing at the time, but now looking back it was a sign of how much heart Axel had regained.]
But I guess me and Roxas and Xion can take credit for you. [He says it in a playful sort of way.]

After all, back home by the time Isa was Isa again, Sora was... Well... he wasn't able to really meet him.]
Isa! Hey, wait up!
Let's go to the apartments together?

Sora? Alright.
[Why is he so trusting??]
no subject
So... uh... It's nice to meet you?
no subject
[So he doesn't offer a smile in return, but... at least his tone is sincere enough?]
no subject
no subject
[Considering they were all just uprooted from their home and all. At least there were familiar faces around, though.]
What about you?
no subject
But, you know. Our situations were kind of different.
[Isa was in the middle of his happily ever after. Sora, less so.]
Riku and Kairi are here, so it's been really nice for me.

I'd imagine so. Lea is here, too, so...
no subject
At least we have our friends here.
no subject
[Xemnas. He means Xemnas.]
And it could be worse.
no subject
Hey, when you start thinking of ways it could be worse that's when fate or whatever figures out a way to be even worse than that.
no subject
...I suppose you must be right. Unfortunate.
no subject
I've literally dealt with both of those things before.
no subject
[A pause, because you know, thinking about it...]
Most of us have, haven't we? Maybe not to this extent, but...
[Does losing a heart count as a transformation? Probably technically. Either way it makes all this a lot less stressful to think about.]
no subject
But I wouldn't have it any other way.
no subject
[And okay, Sora's smiles are... actually kind of infectious? Who knew. (Except literally almost everyone.)]
It's because of you, you know.
no subject
You and Lea were friends before you became Nobodies right? I didn't have anything to do with that.
no subject
[And look! He actually reaches out to give Sora's shoulder a gentle shove!]
Whose fault is it we were able to stop being Nobodies, huh?
no subject
But I guess me and Roxas and Xion can take credit for you. [He says it in a playful sort of way.]
