[She's been here for nearly ten days now. It's very strange, and different. She's not used to feeling this... isolated. Back home, she'd always travelled with Roxas and Axel, and even at Disney Castle it always seemed more... together. If she'd felt lonely, or had a nightmare or something, she could go find one of her friends. Not quite so simple here - the only person she considered a friend she had from home didn't... didn't remember. Not really.

Sure, it was for a good cause, being here. But that didn't mean it was easy.]

It's really strange... there's a lot we have here that we don't have at home, but... there opposite is true too. And...

[Ugh no, this isn't helping. She's probably not even making sense.]

Sorry. I guess I don't know what I'm trying to say.

So... does... anybody have friends they miss who are back home?

[ ... Wow, post. You just hit him hard in the feelings. ]

Y-yeah.

[ His voice is shaky, and he's very much unhappy with himself for letting that much show.

He isn't saying any more, though. Memories... ]

[whereibelong]

[She catches the shake, and has to wonder, even worry if she did something to upset them, or if she brought up bad memories, or something.]

Me too.

[She isn't sure if they'll reply but... well, it felt okay to admit she felt the same. It's sort of a not-quite apology]

voice;

[technomaturgist]

[ Sad memories, at least. But he accepts that little not-quite apology, in his own way.

Although that reminds him... of something else he was wondering.

His mind wanders and needs vindication before he throws the thought out and wallows in self-disgust for even considering bringing him to this place of... daemons. ]

... I sort of wonder how well he'd react to being here.

Is that silly?

[ His voice is honest inquiry, even with the small self-unsure undertone: he's never... really been someplace like this, before. He sort of wants to know how his energetic friend would react to it. Sort of wishing he was here - because he's finding he prefers this place to home, in spite of the daemons and chaos.

Given, he doesn't even know if his friend's still alive, but... ]

voice;

[whereibelong]

[There's a pause as she considers.]

I don't... think so. I think it's normal to wonder about things [Goodness knows she has a lot over the years. Axel had always encouraged her and Roxas to think for themselves and ask questions and learn. Maybe it's not quite the same but...

She shakes her head, though he can't see it]

Especially if our friends are involved, when we miss them.

voice;

[technomaturgist]

Ah.

[ He at least sounds appreciative - his thoughts are vindicated, and they're going farther, now. There's an unspoken "thank you" in his tone, as well.

He's quiet, for a moment. He wants to explain why he felt the need to ask, but... ]

I'm sorry, if that was a weird question. I'm not used to this kind of... want.

[ That's half of the truth - he's not used to it because he blocked all those feelings out in the years following his departure from Frak's team. He's had them before, but he'll never understand what to do with them beyond berate himself over them.

Bonus points in that Ferrus is basically more of an asset rather then a person, to his team. Remind you of anyone, Xion? ]
