Yeah. [...] Out of all five of us who're here, I'm the one who's the furthest ahead in the timeline, or however you want to call it. It means I've seen the most, and I know the most. Xion's the furthest behind, then Naminé, then Saix, then Axel, and me.

[He's puzzled that out at least.]

[foodbin]

...Can I ask what you remember that Lea doesn't?

[cyclists]

[...]

I mean...he knows now. I had to tell him. [Read as: Axel asked and Roxas just kind of caved and explained weeks later.] It's the reason I agreed to all of this in the first place.

[foodbin]

What was the reason?

[cyclists]

I have to find someone really important because he disappeared. His name's Sora.

[foodbin]

...The kid from Naminé's memory? Lea's friend?

[cyclists]

[Yeah. He just. Nods.]

Did...either of them ever tell you what a Nobody is?

[foodbin]

Yes. It's hard to understand, but Lea told me enough that I think I get the concept.

[cyclists]

[That saves a lot of explaining at least.]

Sora is--was? My Other. At least until I received this body of my own. Even with that though, he's who I came from.

[foodbin]

...So the two of you can exist at the same time? I didn't realize that was possible.

[cyclists]

Most of the time it isn't. We were always told we would never be completed until we joined our other selves. Until we had hearts...but no one said that we could grow our own. Maybe they didn't know, or maybe they didn't want to tell us. But when it started to happen, all that was needed then was a body and a connection.

I had a lot of people to thank for bringing me back. For this body in particular. But Sora's the one who gave me a way back to my friends. A way to become whole again and regain who I was.

Xion and Naminé were able to receive the same.
