I hope this is clear enough: to people who know about him, don't harass Xemnas. We know what he's done, and while we know what he's like, it's a bit different here. Threatening him isn't going to help matters. We can keep watch until he actually does something, but don't aggravate him too much.

If anything, I'll try to handle him.

And to the person who sent him that threatening message: stop it. You're not helping.

Say that again after you learn what some psychic types are able to do to human minds with the right motivation or the wrong trainer. This isn't rampant paranoia I'm throwing out here. Ignoring having my words yet again ignored for a moment I honestly wonder if you aren't the one underestimating him now.

I'm not going let that happen. I have my own way to protect against that. [ Now that he's informed her of the possibility, she'll consult with her Psychic types later. ] I guess you're going to have to hope that doesn't happen, either.

Next question, then. Can you really say you would be willing to take the gamble at this stage of the situation?

You sound like Luxord...

Yes.

[The first part has him grinning for a few moments despite himself. Luxord, of all people? He supposes the gambling metaphor was a bit obvious considering the situation. Then again, he does want to keep the question as muddled as he can.]

Maybe that's because you were being too quick to place a bet on my identity. And, for the record, you're still wrong.

That aside. Why? In case you've been missing the hints the situation isn't exactly looking promising for me to go around putting my trust where there's a chance it could cause more trouble.

[ She really doubts Luxord is actually here. There'd be mentions and the guy would've shown up eventually. ]

Because if you're going to turn around and not do anything if you're scared, someone has to do it.

And why hasn't anyone tried to do anything about him before now? That doesn't add up. There are at least four people aware of his identity and yet no one but Demyx has been willing to step forward any try to put a warning out? I'm guilty there I suppose. All I wanted to do was observe if Xemnas was going to be an actual problem rather than directly engage him, but the point remains.

Whether I'm scared or not isn't the issue, it's whether I can do something about him safely. In case you haven't heard, this world is kinda occupied by a full list of people willing to blow up lighthouses, attack gyms seemingly at random, and harm people for no other reason than to cause chaos. Do we really need anyone else making problems around here?

"Safely"? You mean you're trying to find a way for other people to take care of him while you sit around doing nothing or just playing with another instrument. You're mentioning all those attacks, but have you really done anything to do about them or care about them before Xemnas showed up? It sounds like this is the first time you even tried talking with "peacekeeping groups."

[ Haha, wow, Demyx. You've actually got her a bit ticked. They've only briefly interacted in this world even before she disappeared - she doesn't know if he's actually changed or not. Either he's just pretending to be heroic or doing the right thing, or that's just a pretense to save his tail again. It's always a fear, even if they weren't Nobodies. ]

I don't want Xemnas doing anything, and I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't try making those problems, too.

And we go right back to missing the point. Twice.

Ignoring that you refuse to understand that you're pointing fingers at the wrong person and should really stop. Once again. You have absolutely no idea who I am or what I do or do not do to protect the people I care about. If you could maybe keep the judgments to yourself there for a moment? It's more than a little rude, and I keep trying to state that my intention was never to make problems.

I really do not want to fight about this. That isn't going to help the situation and, honestly? It's becoming more of a pain than I'm willing to deal with. I made a mistake and have already admitted to and apologized for it. You weren't hurt. For that I am thankful. But if you could stop treating me like nothing more than a yapping dog trying to bark up the wrong tree it would really be appreciated. What I tried to do, I did because I had the ability to potentially keep one more threat from having the chance to make problems for everyone.

[Really, Xion, he's not flat out trying to make problems. He realizes at this point that despite being surrounded by 'heroic' people who were willing to stick their necks out for others he never realized how much of a pain in the ass trying to actually be a hero is. He genuinely wonders how people like Sora, or Dante, or Ellis, or even Valeria deal with how much difficulty comes with how people react to trying to do something good.

It just seems...pointless, almost? If this is how people treat the ones who stand up...why do so many of the people he's come to know do it without hesitation? It keeps making less and less sense to him as the consequences unfold.]

[ Honestly? Is she really reading this all right? She's just gonna give herself a few minutes being thoroughly annoyed at the way Demyx is acting. Or is trying to act as. There's doing good, and then there's doing good things the smart way. Did he really think Xemnas would just brush off or cower at getting a message like that? ]

Speaking of missing the point, you've been ignoring mine ever since I mentioned Lightning telling me about your call. You're panicked, and I can see why, but suddenly not trusting us when she gives me your name? Keep panicking, then. Let people do what you're trying to do while you lay low. We'll make sure Xemnas won't cause much trouble.

If you're actually willing to try again, call Lightning. She can be trusted. She'd also probably make more sense out of what you're trying to say.

[ And that might be the end of that. Xion just can't get at what Demyx is trying to do other than save himself from Xemnas' wrath. ]
