There were skies that burst open
Who: Xion and Lea
travelsthefarthest
Where: Kitchen area of Lea's apartment, then Xion's apartment so as to avoid waking the bitty
Summary: Xion and Lea have a lot of things to talk about still, things they couldn't talk about while a certain too-young-to-understand someone was awake.
Warnings: Standard Kingdom Hearts is Suffering disclaimer - possible mentions of being speared by Heartless and nearly self-sacrificial tendencies
There'd been several clues that not all was as it seemed. In addition to all the things they hadn't talked about simply because Roxas was too young and knew too little to understand - her not being a Nobody least among them, there was also the factor of the name change Ax- Lea had requested. Xion knew as well as he did that the "because I left the Organization" reasoning was more for Roxas' benefit than either of theirs. It made for a good excuse, but something else was going on here. He hadn't changed his name in all the time they'd been fugitives. Why start now?
Had something happened when they'd found Aqua?
There was also the matter of certain things they just... hadn't been able to discuss with Roxas there. Things that... would really be too much for him right now, having just arrived in Hinoto-Ri, having just found out Ax- Lea was still alive... She didn't want to burden him with all the knowledge of things that were going to happen - of what she was, what might happen... especially with what Riku remembered.
She hadn't found a chance to bring it up though, even though she was thinking about it. They were jammed all together in Lea's room, her and Roxas curled up on the bed and Lea taking a corner of the bedroom - maybe not the smartest of ideas, but... they'd figure something out soon. She could sleep in her room if they really needed to work something out. For now though, they were sleeping, or at least trying to in her's and Lea's case. Roxas had already clearly dropped off a while ago, if his slow, steady breathing was anything to go by.
Lea had gone to do... something out in the kitchen area, and he wasn't back yet. Hm...
Careful not to disturb Roxas, Xion slipped out from under the covers and tiptoed to the door out into the kitchen area, slipping out and shutting it behind her. That done, she turned around, looking for her friend.
"Ax- Lea?" she called out quietly, silently berating herself for the slip-up. This was going to take some getting used to...

Gosh, Xion.Lea's eyes followed her line of sight to the door, and he nodded. It seemed they'd had the same idea regarding Roxas' education. At least for the time being, it was probably best he didn't know all of the unpleasant things in his future. Hell, it didn't have to be his future anymore, did it? If he was here now, then that had already altered the course of events in his life. Maybe Lea could get things right this time. Maybe he could actually protect Roxas this time. It was going to be tough to find the right balance, though, and he knew it. Knowing how badly he'd almost screwed everything up last time, despite his good intentions, meant keeping this unsavory truth from him left a bad taste in his mouth.Well, he didn't have to shoulder the decision alone this time, at least.
Shifting a bit where he stood, Lea sucked on his teeth briefly.
"I vote your apartment," he said. "Call me paranoid, but I'd rather talk someplace we won't have to make a hasty exit stage left to avoid a potential audience."
It didn't matter that it was the middle of the night; he didn't like the idea of anyone having the ability to eavesdrop on what promised to be a very painful and personal conversation.
