sleeptalk.

[Out in the garden, beneath a tree, young Xehanort's curled up on the ground asleep, jacket for a pillow and hair all undone.
Not the most comfortable setup, but when spell-induced claustrophobia's sent him running out the halls, what else could he do? Mumbling, through disrupted dreams...]

...s'rry, father... couldn't... so sorry...

[before he half-rolls over, twitches, trying to stay on the far side of consciousness. Wouldn't take much to knock him out of it, really... anyone want to risk it?]

_{{ She totally will! Previously she was looming around as a fairly innocent, regular Red Nocturne, but in an instant she turns to her humanoid self, floating in midair and looking down at Xehanort with rather heartless pity. }}

Reminiscing, are we?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

...wh'f?

[The voice is enough to have him twitching awake. Of all the people he could be seeing right now... he manages to prop himself up into a sitting position.]

Why do you want to know?

[pyromagick.livejournal.com]

_{{ Oh, he's awake. She gives a light cackle. }}

Because anything that makes you... fidgety and awkward is good enough news for me, little Keyblader~ ♥

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[He shoots a rather sleepy glare.]

So you're just trying to be annoying again.

[pyromagick.livejournal.com]

Annoying? I like the word inquiring better. Now, tell me, little Keyblader, what is on your mind?

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

They seem to be the same thing when you're concerned. [He gives a bit of a 'pfft' noise.] And ... it was just a dream. That's all.

[pyromagick.livejournal.com]

A dream? A dream of what, might I ask? _{{ A brief pause. }} Oh, but does include your father, I assume~

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[He looks a little startled. He'd let that slip...?]

...It did. You're right. The person who took me in, cared for me - though I guess that isn't going to mean a lot to a Heartless. Missing someone.

[pyromagick.livejournal.com]

_{{ A slight huff as she crosses her arms. }}

We might not miss anyone in particular, but you greedy Keybladers never realize we do miss something.

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

[Curiosity overrules annoyance - he gives her a look.]

How do you mean?

[pyromagick.livejournal.com]

The light we once had in our hearts.

_{{ She thinks for a while before cackling, floating upside down in mischief. }}

Oh, but what am I thinking? To have light is to be as snobby and insecure as Keybladers like you and all the rest.

[lower-case-x.livejournal.com]

You missing light? Yeah, right. [He rolls his eyes.] And I'd rather be all that than be something that destroys everything.
