Revelation

Who: Roxas, Terra, Ven and Aqua
What: There's something Roxas thinks they ought to know...
Where: Merlin's house
When: Sunday afternoon
Status: Ongoing
Notes: If this gets Paris cursed, so help me... Also, since it really is just a chat, tags don't have to be prose. They can be action tags.



Roxas had considered telling them a lot sooner. He'd almost caved and told Aqua when he'd met her at Yen Sid's tower, but Ven was still out of it due to his Heart being elsewhere and they hadn't even had any clues as to where Terra was at the time. Once all three were reunited, Roxas hadn't been able to bring himself to drop that bombshell on them yet. Now?

Now, things might be a little more complicated. In all honesty, he'd almost forgotten about it until a couple days ago and he really didn't think about what had reminded him. He was probably going to have to name names anyway, but that could wait until it was necessary.

Merlin had suggested having this discussion over tea. Roxas wasn't so sure, but he supposed it could make it less awkward at the very least... As long as Merlin's enchanted tea set behaved.

So Roxas had helped Xehanort, too, even if he didn't realize it at the time. Another victim of the Darkness, she supposed. Another victim of Xehanort's corruption. She sighed, yielding her earlier question to Ven's. It would get answered soon enough, or she would find out for herself.

"Yeah, we did. I wonder, though," Roxas replied, "So many things were changed from what would have happened. Still..."

He sighed. There was so much that happened that shouldn't have and so much that didn't happen as predicted that was probably changed for the worse.

And he knew he still had a question to answer and while Aqua hadn't prodded, he really didn't want to drop the question altogether. Part of the reason he was telling them this now was because he didn't want to give their enemies a chance to use the information for divide and conquer tactics. Hopefully he wasn't helping that along...

After a moment of thought, he went on, "His biggest help from the Refugees came from one Refugee in particular, though. When their world fell, she'd lost her Heart. Her Nobody managed for a long time to hide what she was. Actually... I don't think anyone would have known if she hadn't come out and told us. But, at some point, she got to talking to Xehanort, or rather, to his Nobody. Xemnas was able to convince her that what he was trying to do was right. She agreed to help on the condition that he try to find a better way to do it. She even joined the Organization. But he didn't quite keep his word. He was still collecting Hearts while at least looking into other possible ways to accomplish his goal."
