2.4; audio
[ The first sound is an explosion, a large one; in reality, it's the ignition of a Firaga spell, but for the two boys reliving this memory, it's a self-immolating attack, one that should come from the heart.]
You're...fading away...
[It's Roxas' voice saying the words, but at this moment, he sounds very much like Sora.]
Well, that's what happens when you put your whole being into an attack. You know what I mean? Not that Nobodies actually HAVE beings...right? Anyway, I digress. Go, find Kairi. Oh, almost forgot... Sorry for what I did to her.
[And this is Sora, a mix of self-deprecating humor and regret evident in his tone.]
When we find her, you can tell her that yourself.
[Stubborn and certain.]
Think I'll pass. My heart just wouldn't be in it, you know? Haven't got one.
Axel, what were you trying to do?
[There's sadness on both ends now, but a mutual acceptance as well. The end is near, but not without purpose.]
I wanted to see Roxas. He was the only one I liked. He made me feel...like I had a heart. It's kind of funny... You make me feel the same.
[And then there's only silence. Neither boy moves.]
[ooc: this scene, with Roxas as Sora and Sora as Axel, a follow-up to this post.]

no subject
[He's dimly aware of their surroundings, but it's like he and Sora are the only truly real things in this world. He's keenly aware of Sora's presence, his support, the way he listens closely to everything Roxas says.]
Once upon a time, I really did think I was in the right place, with them.
