She's pretty straightforward when it comes down to it. I'm glad it was her and not somebody else. And she told you how to use it? [He's giving the scroll a curious look because that's not one of his items.]
It was sort of a guess, so I'm glad it worked out. This is the second time you guys have been rewarded for stuff going on in the gateway, so it made sense.
...It depends. Shess, Lea and I are still trying to see whether it's going to be a good idea to use it on Shirasu, or if there's another idea that might work better.
You're working with both of them? [If he sounds surprised it's because he is a little, but he's also happy to hear that.] What other ideas have you guys come up with so far?
There's a few others, but... They're probably the two people I trust more than anyone else here for something like this.
[She tilts her head.]
I could either go to him, ask him a very loaded question and use the scroll, or we could have someone give out all the reasons we think he's suspicious during the trial. We'd have to find someone willing to take that risk, though. Shess and I are going to talk to Lea and see if he has any other ideas, though.
[But hm. That plan sure is something.] While Axel probably has great ideas--[#debatable]--wouldn't it make more sense to also wait and see what happens this week? If something happens this week?
[We're four weeks in icly and Sol wants to believe maybe people will stop this bullshit.]
I told you before to trust your instincts, so I guess I have to trust you myself. And anyway I know waiting when you want answers is pretty bad. So I get it. Just...think really carefully before you do anything. No matter what it is.
[The problem...is that...Roxas sucks at lying. And he's at least aware now that Emma and Axel are working together, so he sort of just rolls his eyes so he's not looking at her.]
No. We are definitely never, ever talking about that. Ever.
[Augh!!! But he just kind of shrugs.] ...Axel and I agreed not to really say anything to most people just to be careful. But he trusts you, and I do, too.
I know. He told me that part. [They had talked about it for five seconds before deciding they Did Not Need To and moved on.]
...that's kinda up to you. [He's not going to dictate anything.] He already knows I set it up so that you two would share your roles and talk to each other because I picked both of you myself. But I don't know if the rest really matters.
[But, to put things into context:] I've known Axel practically my whole life. I trust him with whatever he's going to do.

Yep. I think I've got it handled. Thanks for pointing me in that direction.

[...]
Can I ask why you called him Axel? That isn't how he introduced himself to me.
no subject
[...but ah.] That's what's on his scroll too, isn't it?

Why did you decide that?

Because...I've always known him as Axel.

Wait - did you talk to him about what I told you?

[She hesitates.]
Do you want me to tell him I know you knew him before this?
