[That's what Sora's afraid of; he knows Kairi's confused and scared right now without her memories and he wants nothing more than to help her get them back, to set things right again for them.
But now, listening to Roxas talk, he feels that unease creeping up on him again, but on the other boy's behalf this time.]
[Sora's quiet for a long while, listening to Roxas talk and it makes his heart hurt. He can't imagine how it would feel to have Kairi and Riku torn away from him, and for him to not even know that it had happened.
He wishes they were having this conversation face to face.]
You didn't forget them Roxas. They were taken from you. You know Axel doesn't blame you for that.

I was confused. Scared, some, because everything was getting bizarre and I didn't know why.
[He didn't know it was all a lie.]
But...that wasn't the hard part. Forgetting's easy. You don't even know it's happened.

[That he had never had anything to begin with.]
I forgot my best friends. How does that even happen?

[But does it make it any better? Maybe. Maybe not. He honestly doesn't know.]
But I forgot her, too. [He bows his head for a moment, taking a breath.] Axel found a journal he wrote, about...our friend. Xion.
[He says the word carefully, like he's not even sure he's pronouncing it right.]
