...

Xion, I-- You'll never really know until you talk to him. But just know that even if it's not like that, he will always be your friend. Just like how Roxas, Axel, and I will always be your friend.

...............

Right.

[action]

[howsketchy]

I'm sorry I'm not very helpful.

[action]

[recidivated]

No—I think you're being very helpful. There's... not really anyone else I can talk to about this, so you listening is great by itself.

[action]

[howsketchy]

Just don't rush into any decisions.

[action]

[recidivated]

...

Is it even right for me to be doing this?

[action]

[howsketchy]

Why wouldn't it be?

[action]

[recidivated]

It's like... living a dream. It feels like—I think it's real, but... is it?

[action]

[howsketchy]

That's up to you to decide.

[action]

[recidivated]

[she goes silent again, just... thinking.]

[action]

[howsketchy]

[ Quietly closes the sketchbook, and waits for her to speak. ]

[action]

[recidivated]

...

Do you think we can really feel?

[action]

[howsketchy]

I think that you do have a heart.

[action]

[recidivated]

[another bout of silence.]

If I do, then I think you do, too.

[action]

[howsketchy]

Ha. You think?

[action]

[recidivated]

You're more than I'll ever be, Naminé.

[action] 1/??

[ She's placing a hand over where Xion's heart should be. ]

[action]

[howsketchy]

I spent a lot of time alone with Axel. We talked a about a lot of things, so many things, but one thing in particular stood out. We both agreed that Roxas had a heart.

And that we don't. It's as simple as that; Roxas is special in every way, even if he doesn't know it himself.

[action] done

[howsketchy]

And I believe that it's the same for you.

[action]

[recidivated]

[she's taken aback a little by the reply; it wasn't what she was expecting. she touches her own hand to Naminé's, and then removes it.]

But... why? Why us and not you?

[action]

[howsketchy]

Who knows? There's only mystery after mystery when it concerns the heart.

[action]

[recidivated]

[a deep sigh is her only response.]

[action]

[howsketchy]

That doesn't matter.

[action]

[recidivated]

[another short moment of hesitation]

So can Roxas feel like this, too?

[action]

[howsketchy]

I wouldn't doubt it.
