♔ day 12 - Memory Theater curse ♔

[binarysky]

[ooc: Viewers will see the full memory as depicted in video #1, but since I play Roxas with his English voice + dialogue in mind, both are here for reference; the memory sequence takes place from 3:47-4:24 in the second video.]

Okay, so? Doesn't mean you're not real and you can't feel...

...Maybe I don't understand what I'm talking about, but I've hung out with you here, and I know just from looking at you and seeing how you act that you can feel. With or without a heart.

Like I said...if you couldn't feel, would you miss your friends so much? Or like sea salt ice cream, or get nervous or have this pits-y feeling in your stomach when something goes wrong? If you couldn't feel...you wouldn't be able to do any of those things.

...Was that your boss? I don't think he's right. Plus, something about him creeps me out...

I can't. Just--stop it! Nobodies barely even exist. We're not the same as you.

Xemnas helped me. I wouldn't have had anywhere else to go.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Roxas, stop!! You're not the same, okay, I understand that. I know I don't get everything, and that I can't really understand...so you don't have a heart. But you can feel. I've seen it!

...You don't have to listen to me, but...just think about what I said. And a person that barely even exists still exists. Believe me, I understand that one just as well as you.

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Just--don't. You don't understand.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I'm a 'rotten hollow shell of a boy'. I understand better than you think.

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

...what?

...There's something wrong with me. I can't really explain it, because I don't understand all of it myself...

...but somebody once told me that I'm a shell of a person. And...I don't really know for sure, an maybe I don't wanna know, but...he might be right.

...So believe me. I do understand what it's like, not being complete.

...Please don't tell anybody...I don't really want people to worry. I thought you'd understand, though. And I trust you.

But if that's all you know, how do you know if he's even right?

...I won't tell.

[Private | | Unhackable]

...When I was younger, some stuff happened. I...don't like talking about it...

But that's how I know. And...well, I sort of have physical proof.

...Thanks, Roxas. You're a good friend.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

That's okay. I don't always want to talk about stuff either.

I...I am? I'm just saying what's true.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sometimes stuff isn't fun to talk about...

Well, you are. You understand, and listen, and you're honest...plus, I think you're fun to hang around with.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. It's the truth, you know.

...Don't let what your boss said get you down too much. Like I said, I don't understand a whole lot, but I still think he's wrong.

...and I think I have a movie that you should see!

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

That's not what bothers me. It's everyone seeing it.

A movie? I've never seen a movie before.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You don't want people worrying or something like that, right? Concern, that's another emotion right there!

Well, I think you'd like this one. It's called 'The Wizard of Oz', its sort of a big deal. There's this character in it, the Tin Man, an he goes on a quest to get a heart, with a buncha his friend, who want stuff like brains and guts and a free ride home. It's good!

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

It's just...private. That was the first day I can ever remember.

That sounds kind of interesting...

[Private | | Unhackable]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Really?

I'm sorry you didn't have a better first memory...at least you've got good friends to help you make good memories, right?

It's really cool!! It's also got music, a witch, flying monkeys, and a horse that changes color!

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

It's not a bad memory. It isn't...anything.

How can a horse change color?

...I'm gonna find a way to get you a heart. Even if its just to convince you that you can feel.

You'll just have to see the movie to find out!

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I don't think you can just find one. We're trying to build a way to get them back home, but it takes a long time.

Okay...I think I can do that.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I'll find one. Somehow, I'm gonna get you one, even if I have to look all over the City for one. Even if I have to talk to the deities, because dude, you can feel, and I just need to convince you!!

It'll be fun, too.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

I don't want you to do that. It's too much. A heart doesn't come that easily or the Organization would have found them before I joined.

Okay.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, that was at your home. This is the City, things can be different here!! Besides, you deserve it.

After the curse is over, we're gonna have an awesome movie night.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[binarysky.livejournal.com]

But the deities are the ones that curse us, aren't they? I wouldn't trust them with anything.

Okay. Just let me know when.

[Private | | Unhackable]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they are...I don't trust them either, at least not most of the time, but sometimes they can be pretty darn helpful.

Course! Whatever works for you~!
