[CLANG.

Today one of the training rooms is occupied by this kid. Despite the violence, he's really just trying to blow off some steam and... think. All while training!

So he's sort of owning some barrels with Speed Rave at the moment. Look at all the chunks of wood go flying!

But maybe a healthier distraction would be better.]

[ Well, she'd been enjoying wandering around minus the armor... but the sounds of someone fighting are distracting. Somehow, she's not really surprised to see that it's Ven. Time to watch him train! ]

[He's too busy destroying barrels to really notice her at the moment. Cyclone time!]

[ It's interesting to watch him, in any case. She's pretty sure he wouldn't let her see if she were in her armor. At least, not without taunting. ]

[He's in a bad enough mood that he'd probably just tell her to go away. Kid wants to help his friends, but he can't while he's here.

And other things have influenced him as well. Regardless, he keeps at it for a while, until he starts to tire. Aaand there goes his Keyblade.]

What a workout...

I didn't realize you trained so hard.

[ From the doorway~. ]

Huh?

[... Oh. It's her.]

Well, I've been slacking recently. How am I supposed to be a Master someday if I don't train?

[Partially bluffing, but he doesn't want to let on what's really up.]

True.

[ She rubs her arm a bit, glancing away. ]

About what I said before... I'm sorry. Some things are better left unsaid.

It's okay. I know you didn't mean anything about it.

[He scratches at the back of his head.]

Besides, I would've found out eventually.

Yeah, you would've. I'm honestly surprised you hadn't already... how long have you been here?

A few months. And, well... some if it I kinda knew. Like, me being erased.

I asked Terra to do that if we couldn't beat Master Xehanort. That way Kingdom Hearts could be safe, and my power'd be passed on to a new apprentice.

That's really brave of you.

... Eheh. You really think so?

[Flattery, it... actually kinda helps!]

Well, my friends mean everything to me. Even if it means I've gotta disappear, I'd do it if it meant saving everyone.

[ She's very much reminded of Sora at that, which makes it that much harder to keep the smile on her face. ]

Your friends are really lucky to have someone like you.

Well... okay, this'll sound really stupid, I guess, but what can I say? My friends are my power.

[How 'bout that for familiarity?]

I don't think it sounds stupid. A little cheesy, maybe.

[ That last bit was teasing, promise. ]

That's just another way of saying stupid.

[He figures she's teasing, but like Sora, he's kind of a derp.]

No it's not!

[ Tinyhuff. Why so much of a derp. ]

You sure?

[Sora had to get it from somewhere!]

Positive. If I was going to say it was stupid, I would've just said that.

Oh. Well...thanks, Kairi.

[It helps! And he actually looks a lot less worried now.]

Still, I really miss my friends. It's been ages since I've seen the Terra and Aqua from my world, especially Aqua.

[oh hey. He might've turned a bit pink, in fact]

[ Oho, she sees that there. She should really stop talking to Ven, she's going to end up depressed more often than not. ]

You'll see them again one day. And our friends are always in our hearts.

[They can be depressed buddies? It seems like they both could use a friend around here.]

Yeah, you're right! And Aqua did make us these...

[he holds out a charm that looks suspiciously like her own]

So no matter what, we'll see each other again. But that doesn't mean I don't miss 'em.

[ No, no she will not make friends with someone who's going to disappear. ]

That looks kind of like the charm I made... I gave it to my friend a few years ago and made him promise to give it back to me when we next met. But I ended up letting him keep it, since it ended up working like a Keyblade keychain.

[Ven sadfaces. :'c He can't help it if he'll disappear.]

Really? I wonder if that'd work with this one... but even if it doesn't, that's alright. I don't really need anything fancy for my Keyblade. It's just a weapon.

I'm honestly not sure how the whole keychain thing works, so there's always a possibility.

[ She smiles a little at that last part though. ]

Yeah, it is.
