[reconnective]

I didn't think about the part where it's so uncommon. [and then people started questioning him here and he went "oh. right."] It was weird when I first started, but now it's weirder not to, if that makes sense? Like I don't know how I can stay in one place for so long anymore.

[misstrust]

Ah, I see. Well, I've heard that once you start traveling, it's difficult to think of returning to more peaceful days.

[reconnective]

Yeah. [...] We also didn't really have much choice because things kept threatening the safety of all of those worlds out there. So we kept traveling further and further to protect them.

But things are finally okay.

[misstrust]

No more threats, then?

[ Until KH4-- ]

[reconnective]

...um...[well. about that.] For now? I don't think so. Things have been quiet for a while.

[he does not mention it's partially because he's dead.]

[misstrust]

...

[ A Smile. ]

So I do believe at some point, you mentioned you had died.

[reconnective]

[...]

Something like that, yeah. I guess. [sometimes these things happen.]

[misstrust]

"Something like that"?

[ Sora, explain. ]

[reconnective]

...it's this place called the Final World where sleep and death overlap. People go there when their bodies and hearts have perished. I've been there for a while now. I don't think there's a way for me to leave yet, but there might be someday.

[misstrust]

... I'm sorry, is that even possible if your body itself has perished?

[ SORA WHAT HAPPENED ]

[reconnective]

Well I still have a form even if I shouldn't. Chirithy told me that I would lose my powers which means I couldn't leave the Final World and I couldn't go back where I came from. But that doesn't mean there maybe isn't another way back.

...it's been about a year though, I think. I stopped counting after a while.

[misstrust]

[ what the devil is a Chirithy ]

... You've been in some state of death for a year.

[reconnective]

Yeah. Something like that. Maybe more, maybe less.

[misstrust]

[ Can she pull Sora into a hug. She's gonna. ]

[reconnective]

[he almost figured this would be the response because it often is when he tells people about this, so yeah. she can. he'll lean into it.]

...it's okay though. I knew it'd happen that way.

[misstrust]

You're a great deal more mature about it than most adults would have been.

[reconnective]

I don't know about that. I kind of made the decision to do it without telling the others. [which was rash and probably not the best plan.] It was the only way I could save all of them though.

[misstrust]

Well, if it was the only way, I don't think you can be entirely blamed for it.

[reconnective]

Maybe not. [he's not entirely sure.] It was kind of the first time all three of us would've been together for good but...we'll just have to wait for that again.

[misstrust]

I'm sure you'll be able to be reunited again soon.

[ Or so she can hope. ]

[reconnective]

If they have anything to say about it? It'll be sooner than I think. [he loves...friends...] But there's always complications somehow. We'll just have to fight back one more time.
