Appointments Post ( I )

This post here is for personal conversations which should happen but one or both of us doesn't want to put up a new post/log and thus we will just thread it out here. This can be used to thread with Masaomi anytime and anywhere. This can either be in person (with action), or via the journal's call feature (voice and/or written).

When replying to this post please mark in the subject line when and how it is taking place EX:
[Action, March 11th]
[Voice, September 8th]
Written, June 10th]</b

[ She just sort of frowns at him. ]

Promise me.

[And he was just offering to give her understanding. Oh well]

Mm, I promise.

... thank you. [ With that, she flops onto her back. C a r e f u l l y. Because crushing her wing at 2x gravity would hurt like crazy.

Within moments she finds this to be pretty uncomfortable anyway, with the pressure pressing down in her ribcage making it a little harder to breathe, so she ends up climbing to her feet. ]

... I never knew you felt like that about Riku.

Like I said, if you were more a fan of shag carpet than hardwood, I think I would eat a sandwich off that floor.

[.................Okay that was a bad joke. But it does pick up his own mood, and thus is something which makes him grin as he stands and begins to get back to walking]

But as it stands, alas, I feel the need to be a janitor.

[ She walks besides him, not really paying attention to his bad and very weird jokes.

She's thinking. Thinking about him. Thinking about the first time they went on a draft together and the wild look in his eyes. Thinking about the fight club and how adamant he was that it was no place for a lady like her.

Thinking about the vitriol in his voice when he talked about Riku. ]

Masaomi.... how long have we been friends?

Is that a trick question, Xion-chan? Years, now. I met you on pretty much my first day here, riiiight?

[He hums at the memory] I carried your groceries. Come to think of it, I remember you looked upset that day.

[ She pauses, and then abruptly laughs, remembering. ] That's right! I remember now. Though I don't know what I was upset about...

[ She shakes her head. ] Anyway... I feel like there's something I should tell you. You've known me so long you probably deserve to know... [ She pauses again, uncertainty creeping into her expression. ] ... just ... promise me you won't think of me any differently, okay?

[He keeps a blase look on his face. He's taking light, deliberate steps to keep them walking. Because it's better to keep walking than simply stand with the pressure and gravity in this gym. But....]

Mmm, I can't promise that, right? Not for sure.

[ She's silent at that, her expression twisting a little. She almost wants to burst into a run, just get away from the conversation and pretend like none of this ever happened...

But she owes it to him. Even if he can be kind of a jerk sometimes. ]

... Masaomi, I'm not ... like you. ... I was made, not born. I'm only three years old... I'll turn four soon, though. [ A beat. Come on, Xion, get to the point. ] I'm not human, Masaomi. In my world... I'm called a Replica.

[He doesn't visibly react much - but then, when he's genuinely surprised, he rarely does. His step pauses a moment mid-step, and his eyes widen quite a bit. He gets a bit more rigid in his stance for a second before he realizes that would be fatal in this environment, and he then corrects himself. He keeps glancing at Xion out of the corner of his eyes as they walk. He did not see that one coming.

Made? Replica? Four?

...Huh. He doesn't immediately say anything, waiting if she's got more to go with it]

... haven't you ever wondered why Kairi and I look so much alike? [ She sighs through her nose. ] I was created... from memories of her. Sora's memories. That's why... we're the same.

I was made to be ... a weapon. The people that created me wanted me to be a Keybearer for them... so they could collect hearts. But Xemnas... he wasn't honest with us about what he wanted. In the end, he was only working for his own selfish ends. I didn't know... not for a long time. I just did my job, even if I wasn't always very good at it. I would fail... and Saix would yell at me.

[ Why is all of this pouring out of her now? ]

He said I was worthless... a mistake. I was broken... sometimes, I couldn't use the Keyblade, and I felt like... like I was nothing. All I ever was was their puppet... to control as they wished.

I finally decided I had enough, and ran away... but all I did was cause trouble for everyone. In the end... I made my own best friends' pain worse. They tried so hard for me.... I'll always love them for that. [ A smile comes and goes, fleeting and sweet and sad. ]

... I guess what I'm trying to say is... I know what it's like to really be a puppet. To be controlled... and looked down on. That's why... I didn't like hearing you said that. I won't ever let anyone control me ever again. [ With some steel. ]

[Man what do you even say to that? A weapon made of memories in the form of a young girl? That's just a whole slew of weird fetishes, and to be honest, reeling as he is from the events at the hospital, that's his very first mental association. He even ends up looking up at the ceiling of his simulation. his walk slows and - more to comfort himself than anything he folds his arms behind his head.

Abused to a breaking point? Worthless? Hah. He never had it spelled out so clearly, but why would he need to have it spelled out like that, honestly? One look at Yori Kida would speak volumes, and one look at Saki's hospital room informs his failings. Izaya's while path defines how he's expendable. Used to be. Used to be.]

To be honest, it seemed to me that she looked like you, rather than the reverse. After all, as much as I would love to have gotten to know some parts of Kairi-chan more intimately, I have known you longer.

[ ... that wins a small smile. ] Thanks. We have known each other a really long time, haven't we...? I'm ... sorry I never told you before. It's just hard to say..

Mm. I can see why - it's pretty creepy, actually. The people that made you have some gross fetishes.

[Irreverently, still]

[ Gives him kind of a look. A "that's gross but I'm going to let it slide" sort of abiding look. ]

... the people that made me had a goal... a goal I couldn't complete. Not when I figured out what it was. [ She sighs, and shakes her head. ] That's all a long time ago, now... it's been years since then.

Uh...huh. [...THIS FACE]

You know, for being as young as you are, you really do look good, Xion-chan. I'm more impressed than ever.

[ She gives him a look --

A crooked smile --

And then bumps her shoulder against his. ]

Pervert. Come on, I'll race you!

[ And with that, she takes off at a run, laughing. ]

Alright! [The double gravity running is actually what he came here for anyway. Well, that and weights, but. He's surprised she went for it, so he gets in pace with her and then gets past her, smiling]
