Jema'grethy: Memory Cave

[voidtreckermods]

Passengers see a vision, an instance of someone's life, before just as suddenly - they find themselves inside a cave. It is light, a strange moss glowing on the walls and ceiling illuminates the cave nicely, and it is large enough for them to pace around in without trouble.

They're not alone. In the cave with them is another voidtrecker; maybe someone they know well, or maybe someone they've only seen in the aisles of the train. But they are together in this cave, and they will come to find out that it was one of their memories that the other witnessed. And them, one of yours.

The cave has no exit, at least not yet. They know that it will, eventually. When the time is right.

But for that time to come, they first must talk...

Roxas sighs and clenches and unclenches a fist. "All of it. It's just hard to know for sure sometimes. Even though I know I got out of the simulation, that Sora called me back. But I guess I'm afraid to really believe sometimes. It all seems too good to be true."

She nodded. She understood that completely. "That's part of why I'm always afraid," she admitted softly. She just didn't realize Roxas had the same fears.

He takes in a deep breath. "I just... I don't want to be trapped by that fear. I don't want to live that way. Everyone fought so hard so I could have this chance... I need to believe in it too."

"It is hard sometimes, to believe something... even when everyone tells you it is that way, isn't it?" she asked softly, wanting to show him that she understood, that he wasn't alone.

Roxas fixes her with a poignant stare. "That's why the only thing you can do is trust the people who care about you. Especially when your own thoughts aren't always reliable."

"Does that go for you too, Roxas?" she asked, quietly.

Re: Xion | Roxas

[terribletwos]

He lowers his gaze a bit. "Yeah. I'm trying. I know I haven't talked about it much. I didn't know how to talk about it. Nobody else knows what it's like, to not know if what you're seeing is real."

Re: Xion | Roxas

"There are lots of things I don't know how to talk about too," she said quietly. "But... we can learn together?" she asked.

Nobody else knew what that was like? Well, she had been a Nobody who constantly wasn't sure if what she was seeing was real when she looked at herself, so....

But she wasn't sure how to say any of that without getting him angry again...

Re: Xion | Roxas

[terribletwos]

That makes him look up again, slightly more hopeful. "... Yeah. Yeah, of course we can, Xion. It's always easier when we help each other. So... you'll let me help you too then?"

"I... I will try," she agreed with a nod.
