I wanted to be truly great, but instead, I broke. Like glass, I broke. I broke through every ache. Through every pain, I broke. I broke into a fragmented dream.

RIKU​.

@relinktus​ said: “everything is going to be okay. Just hang in there.”

‘ ‘m fine.  can take a hit’r two. ’ 

it’s  wheezed  out from where he lays on the ground  ,  in a  heap  of aching muscles  &  joints.  sure  ,  he can take a few solid hits  &  get back up again  ,  but right now  ,  riku feels like he just got run over by a  truck  .  everything  aches  ,  he knows it’ll be worse if he doesn’t get up  ,  but he can’t seem to find the  energy  to.

‘ stop… stop worryin’ about me, idiot. ’ 

riku turns his head to the side  &  spits out  something  that was pooling in his mouth  ,  unsure of what it really is.  it’s  red  against the ground  ,  must’ve gotten some in his mouth somehow.  he wrinkles his nose up  &  sighs  ,  weakly trying to push roxas away. 

‘ can take care’a myself.  s’not….s’not safe. ’

“  NOWHERE  IS  SAFE  FOR  US,  idiot.  ”

roxas isn’t buying anything that riku’s selling.     in fact he’s helping himself to a heaping slice of  the  opposite,   standing tall & brandishing both keyblades with his usual flourish.     naturally he’s hurt himself,  but  LIKE  HELL  is he going to just leave riku here to be yet another victim of the heartless.

“  can you stand?  ”

if not,  riku,  then roxas will help.     he’s already lost so many things in his life :    he’s  not  about  to  lose  you  too.

HOW  IS  YOUR  SOUL  PERCEIVED ?

——THE  WANDERLUST  HEART.

(  your soul longs for your adventure.     sometimes you're filled with so many ambitions & dreams that you think you might burst.      you rush about in a frenzy,  afraid to miss out on all the opportunities that life has to offer.     you see the world with all its light & all its darkness & can't help but see something beautiful in every part.     every star & every shadow.     you say that you're running towards your goals,  but sometimes i think you're trying to escape the ugly things that you couldn't paint over.  )

SORA​.

‘ i can handle it myself. ’ 

he doesn’t like being  harsh  with those he cares about  ,  but sora feels it’s  necessary  now.  if he has to carry this so no one else has to  ,  he will.  that’s what they  wanted  him to be  ,  that’s what a  hero  does.  sora frowns  ,  arms crossed when roxas speaks  ,  almost  pouting  .

‘ you’re you, roxas.  not…i didn’t work so hard to bring you back for that !!  you’ve got enough pain without taking mine, too, so i won’t let you. ’

“  YOU’VE  BEEN  IN  PAIN  FOR  LONG  ENOUGH,   sora.     the world’s  martyr  for long enough!     so don’t you dare martyr yourself for  ME!  ”

it’s clear that roxas is still  struggling  with the concept of  BEING  HIMSELF.     he doesn’t want to because he  knows  that sora is right,  but it’s  HARD  to break himself of the idea that he’s just a half of the other keyblade wielder.     it had been  driven  into  him  for the last two weeks of his life before disappearing,  after all.

DiZ.     xemnas.     ... riku.     roxas can still hear them in the back of his mind :    sora,  sora,   can  you  feel  sora?

even covering his ears does nothing to silence them.

“  I  WAS  MEANT  FOR  THIS,  ”     the key of destiny declares.     “  if you won’t give it to me completely,  then just give me  half!     you’re not  AN  ISLAND,   sora,  & you’re not my m͟a͟r͟t͟y͟r͟ :    rely  on  me  like  you  used  to !!  ”

“   i  don’t  really  know  myself .   ”           @dawnwalks​,   from  HERE.

THERE’S  A  SOFT  HUM  as roxas turns his gaze out to the setting sun where it graces the sea.     the destiny islands have always been ... one of his favorite places to visit,  &  perhaps it’s moments like these that drive the notion home.     he trusts riku to be  honest  with him,  something that may not have happened had they not come together under these circumstances ... had roxas not allowed himself to  DROP  HIS  GUARD  as he had.

it’s ... nice.     REALLY  NICE,  in fact.

“  i don’t really think  any  of  us  really do,  riku,  ”     is his gentle response,  complete with a gentle touch of a gloved hand to the keyblade master’s shoulder.     “  isn’t that what this whole  LIFE  THING  is about?     figuring all of that out?  ”

[relinktus]

“   i’m  happy  with  this  pain .    ”           @heartspent​,   from  HERE.

“  WELL  I’M  NOT !!  ”

he isn’t trying to be mean.     he really isn’t.     roxas just  doesn’t  know  how  to  handle  this.     sora shouldn’t have to  ACCEPT  pain just because it’s been with him for so long!     isn’t roxas’ role to  take  all  of  that  away ?!

“  i’m  THE  OTHER  PART  OF  YOU,   sora!     isn’t it up to  me  to take that pain for you?     to  PROTECT  you ?!     then  let  me  take  it,   sora!     I  KNOW  I  CAN  HANDLE  IT !!  ”
