when there's nothing left to burn

[Some of you may recognize this Axel. He barely looks any older because he's only had that heart that's beating away contentedly in his chest for a few months, now. Despite the lack of advance in age, he appears more tired, more worn down, as if things were really starting to get to him. His face and neck is marred with a few faint scars here and there, and were the rest of his body not covered by that coat, there would probably be more. His expression is dull, only the faintest hint of surprise showing when he realizes he isn't where he thought he would be upon turning this corner in this hallway. Something was... Different, about this place.]

... Hm. Odd.

(ooc: foralostcause in fifteen years. damn you, chat, damn you and your bandwagons. Not the definite future, just a possibility. What happened? I'm not telling~)

Losing my...

[Oh, wow. What? He's looking at you with narrowed eyes now, Saix, inspecting you. Because you seem far more real than the guilt-inspired nightmares that stalked his steps those few times before and you've made him wonder if this really is a hallucination.]

How long have you been here?

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

A few months.

1/3

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

2/3

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

No...

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

Well, shit.

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

So it hasn't been fifteen years.

...

Fuck this place. Fuck this place in the eye.

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

I doubt it even has--

...

F-Fifteen years?

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Fifteen years. I must have somehow... Ended up in the past...

[Looking at you funny now Saix.] Or I'm imagining all this.

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

The multiverse must be utterly doomed if this is happening.

And no, you're not imagining this.

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

... Of course you'd want me to believe that, wouldn't you?

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

Your choice to. If you're crazy, then I can deal with that~

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[K-kinda creeped out.]

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

By the way, where oh where did you get that heart~?

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

... [D-don't tell him, Axel. Don't say it.]

It's Sora's.

[Dammit.]

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

Are you serious? You took his heart? But that makes me wonder what happened to dear Roxas...

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

I... [He mumbles the next part. Unintelligible.]

Finally returning after internet died. GOD DAMN IT.

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

Say that again?

Aww D: You should, uh, hit it with a fish.

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[He hunches his shoulders a little, turning his back to Saix.]

I killed them.

I have no fish. D: 1/2

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

AhahaHAHAHA~!!

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[WAY TO MAKE HIM FEEL WORSE, SAIX. *thumbs up, yay, provoke the borderline psycho* Axel seems to flinch at the other's laughter, closing his eyes tight as if that will block it out.]

I didn't mean to. I was t-trying to save him...

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

A-And the hero failed miserably~♪

[lostmycause.livejournal.com]

[Did you hear that? He just snapped.]

I DID MY FUCKING BEST. HE'D MERGED WITH SORA AND I WAS TRYING TO TURN HIM INTO A HEARTLESS BUT I TOOK IT TOO FAR. IT'S NOT MY FAULT THE KID WAS TOO WEAK.

[Those chakrams in his hands? Yeah, you can probably tell just from the way he's standing and shouting at you that he reeeally wants to throw them at you.]

[lunalunasai.livejournal.com]

So this is the result when your will wins out, huh.

If he didn't die, then you would have. You should be happy about this, Axel~
