[So there's a certain spiky brown-haired kid sitting at a table in Junes' food court. It certainly looks like Sora. He's got a small smile when the video feature kicks on. Though there's something a bit off about him as the visible skin looks pale.]

So...hi. My name's Sora and I just got here a few days ago. I've been kinda adjusting. Thought this place might've been something else actually. [A nervous laugh and he scratches the back of his head.]

Anyway, Neku told me that some people were here so if the word "Facility" means anything to you, you should come visit. I'm having a burger at this giant store called Junes.

[Awkward silence.]

And uhm, I noticed that there are some familiar faces here that might know me. It'd be great to hear from you.

[It's followed by a long pause, a frown and quiet muttering:] How do I turn this thing off again?

[Action]

[Anyone who comes to see him in person, will find him sitting at a table by himself outside. An empty burger wrapper stuffed into a fry container and a half-full cup sitting on a tray in front of him. He doesn't seem to be in a hurry, just relaxing at the table.]

[alkjdflkaj! Holy Light, it's Terra! But not Terra. He's got all the markings of being a Xehanort. There's definite surprise on his face but Sora has had experience in giving enemies a chance. So aggression is squashed down to wariness.]

Hello... [Sora's not exactly sure what to call him. Or even what to say to him at this point.]

[That's almost disappointing, but at the same time it's more heartening. This one doesn't seem as quick to condemn.]

I take it you know about me, then. [He shrugs a little, hands gesturing to the sides.] Don't worry, I don't.

[He'd given a few of the Organization a chance back on the station. Only one had continued to threaten him and the people he loved in all that time. There was also hope.]

Yeah, a bit. [A bit about Terra and more about Xehanort.] So you're still you?

Still me? Who am I?

[And that's a completely serene, though slightly inquisitive look. Complete with head-tilt.]

Terra.

[There's no hesitation in saying the name and maybe a hint of familiarity.]

Or are you Xehanort now?

The name I know is Xehanort. That's all I do know, though.

What do you know about me, Sora?

[Taking advantage of the lack of people piling in to maybe get some answers. Ohhhh, life is good right now.]

[He's not exactly sure what's going on or what people have been telling Terranort but Sora will offer up something.]

That Xehanort is a bad guy who's searching for something and using other people to do it.

[Aqua had mentioned that before, that "Xehanort" was the name of someone terrible, and she had been worried about the association. The reaction of the other Sora, though... perhaps a little more.]

Is there another Xehanort, or do you mean me?

[He rubs his forehead. This was not how he was expecting his day to go.]

I don't really have the whole story but there are other Xehanorts. You aren't him. I knew you, before, from where I came from.

[There's a whole mess here that he feels so close to uncovering the truth of. It's intensely gratifying.]

If it's not too much to ask... would it be possible for you to explain? Arriving here, I had no memory of anything outside of my name. I've been trying to pick up the pieces, so any information you can provide will help.

[Even if Sora feels kind of sorry for Terra, for this version of Xehanort even - there's still a level of mistrust. The man had been an evil genius and it's quite possible that it's lurking there underneath this niceness.]

Like I said, I don't have the whole story. I don't know the details of how you went from being Terra to Xehanort.

From Terra to Xehanort...

[He can't help but give Sora a rather amused grin.]

Terra is my brother. Or at least, that was what seemed to explain the physical resemblance. You've given me something else to think about, if nothing else...

[Even if he'd known the story that Xehanort had been told, Sora's bad at lying. He can say people are his siblings but only if he really feels that in his heart. Even so mistrust is born when truth is revealed, no matter how good the intentions are. It could be the final push needed. Sora, while not going to spill everything, wants Terranort to always be able to trust him because he wants to save him from the Darkness.]

You've got people who care about you and want to help you. They always try to do what they think is best. So try and remember that when you're thinking about that.

They're quite content to keep me in the dark. The only person who will help me is myself... and thus the only way to uncover the truth is by my own power.

Thank you for your help, Sora. The other you here is a friend of mine. Perhaps if circumstance allows we may share such a bond as well.

I'll help you. I want to help you. [So long as it doesn't involve destroying everything.]

You're welcome. It'd be nice if we could be friends. [He smiles then.]

You've helped me quite a bit. I have a lot to think about, for now...

I'd like that. [Though he'll hold final judgment for when he sees just how you fit into things...]

Edited 2013-04-14 11:57 (UTC)

[Nods. He's not the only one who has a lot to think about.] Yeah.

If you ever need anything don't hesitate to give me a call. [It's dangerous to let himself to close to any Xehanort after what was confessed to him, but Sora can't turn his back on a friend -- on someone who'd been his teacher in another life.]
