So...I can talk to other people this way, right?

[The video feed shakes up and down as Cambot nods.]

Really? Great!

...Wait, there are other people around, aren't there? Because crash landing in a space station ghost town wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Oh, jeez, you two have gotten worse. I don't need you to protect me. He looks like Sora wearing some kind of weird retainer.

[optimistickey]

Kairi, you shouldn't trust him! He's way dangerous.

[halfdarkened]

We've also gotten older. And seen a lot more things happen to us. Don't take him lightly.

[seasidememories]

Okay. I won't go looking for the guy, promise. Just don't bust any arteries on my behalf.

[optimistickey]

All right...just be careful! This place does get pretty weird sometimes.

[halfdarkened]

Sora's right. Most of the people here are okay. But if we were some place with our powers, this guy would be as bad as Xehanort's... As bad as "Ansem."

[seasidememories]

Xehawhat? ...Oh crap, here we go again.

[optimistickey]

Oh...yeah, it's complicated. [he still doesn't quite get it all.] But Xehanort is Ansem...and a couple've other guys.

[seasidememories]

Oh.

...That is one very busy man.

[halfdarkened]

A guy named Xehanort stole his mentor's name, and when he became a Heartless, the Heartless still went by the stolen name.

You got no idea.

[optimistickey]

Yeah, I still don't get half of it myself!
