[Roxas nods along as Sora speaks. It would be weird, extremely weird, even if that's how things should have gone. It probably says something about their lives that the abnormal way things did go isn't the strangest option.]
Yeah, it would be. I think that's cuz even if I started out as part of you, even if we're technically the same person, starting out with no memories meant I grew into someone else. I couldn't be you now if I tried.
[Is that why he didn't just fuse into Sora when they merged, inextricable on every level? Or is it because of his own heart, the one he grew? He'll probably never know.]
If I had gotten your memories...I don't know, maybe I'd have looked for them. I'd have known they existed, I just don't know if I'd have missed them. [Which is terribly sad. He rests his hand on his chest for a moment.] I don't know when I first started to be able to feel things, but it wasn't that first day. I only remember a little, but when Xemnas found me after I was born, there was nothing.
