[Today there is a ~~red mummy~~man dressed all in red wandering through the halls of the dressing room with a general look of confusion on his face. Must be a newcomer.

That or he's lost his way. But feel free to come and talk to him all the same.]

Heartless I can deal with well enough. [Despite being technically not a fighter.]

Perhaps a mixture of the two? Partially forgotten and partially something he strove to forget? [A sigh.] I suppose I'd have to ask him to be sure.

It's entirely possible. If his life were as conflicting as he implied, then I can see why he would wish to forget. It could also be that his arrival in this world helped to awaken his memories, so to speak; I've seen stranger things, honestly.

He was the one to suggest research into how the heart affected memory, if I'm remembering correctly. But was his intention to forget further or to remember?

It's difficult to say; Xehanort is clever. For all we know he may have been acting the entire time.

Sadly, that is a very definite possibility.

One that must be taken into account, more importantly. After all, Xehanort only spoke of this during the effects of the truth gas; it's likely that he won't be near as open now that it's no longer in effect.

Given that he never spoke of it before, I would be forced to assume that you are right in that regard.

I suppose an option would be to surreptitiously expose him to more of the serum; it is in decent supply in one of the laboratories.

A valid plan, although it work once at best.

True, and it would be difficult to accomplish successfully; Xehanort is intelligent, after all. Incredibly so.

Indeed he is. Perhaps if we were to recreate the conditions that first caused the effect...?

I'm not entirely sure what had occurred, but my assumption would be that, just as they had occurred a year prior, someone may have accidentally broken one of the bottles with the serum inside, leading to its spread in gaseous form.

Its natural state is gaseous then. I see.

Evidently, yes. Perhaps its container is consistently cooled so to keep it in liquid form; if that is the case, then it must have a relatively low boiling point to almost immediately turn into gas upon contact with the air.

In that case it would be rather hard to inflict its effect upon him without risking falling prey to it ourselves.

Indeed... Strangely enough, however, not everyone is effected; while some may be compelled to speak the truth, others are resistant, although Xehanort was effected previously.

I suppose an option would be to gather a sample of the gaseous substance small enough to expose a small area, though that in itself could prove difficult.

Do you know if it's a case-by-case basis, or if those who are affected will always be affected?
