#like that scene where Sora cries at the sight of Xion | Explore Tumblr Posts and Blogs

First, a vessel for each heart must be readied. Then, a spark of some sort is required to induce its waking.

…all their hearts require to be awakened is that “spark"—people they cared for and who cared for them, who can show them the way home.

I also did not like the scene in Re:Mind with the Recusant’s Sigil. I’m pretty sure that when Roxas said that he needed a “connection,” he meant it in this sense. Not the letter “X”, lol.

I also don’t like the idea of them “reclaiming” the Sigil. In KH3D, Axel did not want to reclaim that. That’s why, after he was recompleted, he started going by his real name again: LEA! No “X” in it. I hate how, because KH3 had to put him back with the Sea-Salt Trio, he has to go by Axel again.

I agree that Isa’s redemption was shoehorned in. Of course, that’s not because I didn’t want Isa to be a good guy in the end. Of course he should be a good guy. It’s because Isa didn’t need a redemption. He needed to be saved.

I’ve heard a lot of Sea-Salt Trio fans say they want a scene where Isa begs Roxas and Xion for forgiveness. As if that would make things all better with Isa. Oh wouldn’t that be so nice and cute? No. Not to me. I would honestly throw up if that happened.

But I guess I just saw the Sea-Salt Trio very differently than most people. And this ties into my larger criticism of it. I really, REALLY didn’t want the type of reunion we saw in KH3. I just don’t think the Sea-Salt Trio (RAX) works outside of Days. I don’t like the idea of the “Sea-Salt Family” where RAX are these cuddly pals and Isa is just portrayed as this extra bonus. No, no, no. A million times no.

Roxas: I hope we always have each other.

Xion: Yeah…

Axel: What’s gotten into you?

Roxas: I just…want these days to last forever. Hanging out, the ice cream, the sunsets…

When Roxas said this, he had only been in the organization a few months. Hell, he had only been born for a few months. He knew no other life than the one he had in the organization. Roxas was 100% content with the life he had at this point because he didn’t know anything else. He was very much an innocent little kid, in the beginning.

Axel: Nothing lasts forever, man. Least of all for a bunch of Nobodies. But you know, we’ll still have each other…even if things change and we can’t do this anymore.

Roxas: Yeah?

Axel: As long as we remember each other, we’ll never be apart. Got it memorized?

Roxas: Ha ha, wow, Axel. That sounded ridiculous.

Axel: What? I thought it was pretty deep.

Axel was not as optimistic about things staying the same between them, because he’s already been burned by that type of thinking before. He’s not as idealistic as Roxas and Xion. He’s independent and aloof. However, over the course of the story, Axel grows increasingly dependent on Roxas and Xion.

And this is important—it’s because he was trying to cope with his own misery over his loss of innocence and happiness. He does care about Roxas and Xion. But they are a crutch for him.

Would Axel have still acted so clingy with Roxas and Xion if Isa wasn’t Norted? Would he still have wanted to be part of the so-called “Sea-Salt Family” if Isa had been his normal self? In my opinion, no. He would have enjoyed a much more casual friendly relationship with them.

He wouldn’t have been “playing house” as Saix said in the manga. Would Lea wanna “play house” once Isa was back in his life? Again, no. I don’t think so. I think he’d be happy for Roxas and Xion to spread their wings and go off on their own without him.

On the sofa opposite him, Naminé spoke up instead. “Sora and Riku are best friends.”

Axel’s eyes crinkled as he remembered his own best friend—the only friend he’d ever had, in fact.

“If your best friend goes away, you’re sad, and if you get to be with them, you’re happy,” Naminé added. “Isn’t that how it is, Axel?”

“…That’s about the size of it.” Axel nodded and sat down on the remaining empty sofa, staring at the sea-salt ice cream he held.

“So you are capable of sincerity,” said Riku. Axel only shrugged at the jab and finished his ice cream pop.

By the time KH2 starts, Axel is extremely needy and obsessive over his “best friend” Roxas. Roxas, however…didn’t feel the same way as Axel. In Roxas’s mind, Hayner was his best friend. Axel’s relationship with Roxas in KH2 is NOT healthy. It is NOT cute.

The thing with Roxas is that he was growing up over the year 358/2 Days took place. He doesn’t stay that same naive little kid he was on Day 96. He meets Hayner, Pence, and Olette and wants to get out more with kids his own age. He wants to be a normal kid. He wants to be told the truth about Sora.

I adore Axel. Of course I wanted him to be happy. But Roxas would NOT have been happy to be in the organization with just Axel as his only best friend. A lot of people disliked Xion’s addition to the story because originally Roxas and Axel were a duo. However, Roxas and Axel were not portrayed as super close, even in vanilla KH2. I actually think Xion being there made things more realistic, from Roxas’s end. If she had not been in the organization, Roxas would have left looooooong before Day 355. Xion was the reason he stayed for so long. Not Axel.

He’d been overthinking the do’s and don’ts so much that he lost sight of what he wanted. And he couldn’t gather the courage to follow Roxas. Was he afraid of rebelling against the Organization? No —it was just that he wanted things to stay the way they were, even more than Xion or Roxas did.

Axel didn’t care anymore about what the Organzation needed, what Xion or Roxas wanted, or even what was supposed to be good for the worlds. He had been using the Organization for his own ends from the start. The only thing that had changed in the meantime was who it was all for. Maybe Saïx would call that a betrayal. But his world had changed.

Axel, due to the trauma over losing Isa, didn’t want Roxas to grow up. That’s the long and short of it. He wanted him to stay a perpetual naive child with no independent life, to soothe his wounds. He was afraid he’d leave him if he told him the truth. The end of the story is a total reversal from before.

Before, Axel told them that things don’t last forever, and you cant expect them to. Roxas and Xion got sad, but gradually accepted this. Xion wanted to learn more about herself and ultimately made the decision to go back to where she belonged, since that was best for everyone. Then Roxas chose to leave, too, to figure himself out. Axel was the one that didn’t want this. He, more than anyone, wanted things to stay the same as it was on Day 96.

“Hayner…”

I don’t know that name he muttered. It’s probably–those kids–Roxas’s friend’s name.

“Pence… Olette…”

This Roxas’s most important friends’ names.

This Roxas wouldn’t call my name like that.

“Hayner! Pence! Olette!” Roxas cried, Axel sprang–into a dark space.

I don’t think Xion leaving the organization and choosing to go back to Sora was a bad thing. I don’t think Roxas growing up and leaving the organization was a bad thing, either. I think it was a good thing. And I think it was supposed to be seen as a good thing in the story as well.

I don’t think the Sea-Salt Trio needed to be reunited and go back to being exactly the same as when Xion and Roxas were “kids” with no independent life outside the organization. Even Axel admitted that the “real” Roxas was the kid playing with Hayner and friends. Not the one in the black robe. It’s okay for Axel and Roxas’s relationship to drastically change. Axel needed to learn that he has to let go of Roxas in order to respect his independence. He can’t stay a little kid forever.

Of course, I still think Roxas needed reconcile things with Axel. I still think they needed to be close friends at the end of the story. But the Sea-Salt Trio? The close cuddly group who hangs out every day? Naw, man. That’s over. That was a stepping stone in these characters’ lives. It was not an end-game trio. Forcing it to be end-game just ruins it.

I like the idea of Lea rescuing Isa, healing his childhood wounds, and having someone (who is his peer) to be with forever. That’s what Axel always wanted. I like the idea of Lea reestablishing a new dynamic with Xion (Kairi) and Roxas (Ventus) that is more realistic and age-appropriate. One where they don’t have to be together every day, like in Days.

I like the idea of Lea being very close to Ventus and Kairi and relating to them more as independent young adults, instead of naive little children. One where they have other friendships that are important to them and their whole life doesn’t revolve around ice cream. They have their own trios, the Destiny Island Trio, and the Wayfinder Trio.

Lea has his own duo with Isa. Maybe they would still choose to settle down in Twilight Town to live together. I do think they have a history there. But live together with Roxas and Xion? No. That’s weird. KH3′s version of the “Sea-Salt Family?” I’m sorry, but, yuck.

Oh boy, you wanna know? It’s gonna be a lengthy one, but I’ll do my best to make it entertaining, heh

Under the cut because L O N G P O S T

So first things first, it’s best if you know how old I am. As of March 2019, I am 17-years old, and I’ll be 18 by the end of Summer. Kingdom Hearts 1 came out just 7 months after I was born, so I wasn’t into it from the very beginning.

Right around 2009, I found myself getting a PS2 from one of our neighbors because they were buying a PS3. And among the games they gave us with the PS2, Kingdom Hearts 1 was in that batch. My sister played through and completed the whole game, but little 8-year old me couldn’t get past the Chameleon boss in Deep Jungle. So I put the game down for a year or so, never thinking about it since. I went back to finish the game, got stuck on the legendary ‘THERE’S NO WAY YOU’RE TAKING KAIRI’S HEART’ boss fight, and I eventually beat the game! Go me!

I got a Nintendo DS and my sister bought me Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days for the DS because she realized I actually liked Kingdom Hearts. However, I hadn’t played KH2, nor did I retain too much of the information from KH1. My sister got KH2 for the PS2 a few months prior and assumed that the other save file was mine. Turns out she just accidentally saved twice >.<

So I played through 358 until I got stuck on one of the ridiculous bosses, I think it was Leechgrave? And I didn’t retain any of the plot, so I kinda just forgot it. Then... I actually played KH2.

And I had SO much fun! I played on Beginner because I was 9-10-years old and I needed to if I ever wanted the hope of beating it. And around that time, Re:coded came out. So once I beat KH2, my sister bought me Re:coded and I played that... before getting stuck on a boss again. I can’t remember which one though, heh.

I eventually went back to beat 358, did so, cried a lot because Roxas was immediately established as my favourite, and by then I was maybe 11-years old. Dream Drop Distance for the 3DS came out and I had become invested in the games at that point. So I was about to start watching the cutscenes for 3D... when I realized I was missing something...

I never played Birth by Sleep.

I had seen a few of the cut scenes out of BBS by that point, but I didn’t actually know who the characters were. Surprisingly enough, when I saw Ventus for the first time, I didn’t associate him with Roxas at all. I don’t think I even processed that they looked the same. To me, it was just Ventus. Maybe that’s why I can see their nuances so well, I don’t know. Anyways, I went and watched all the cutscenes for Birth by Sleep, lost my fucking mind because OH THAT’S WHY ROXAS- OHHHHH and then I went to watch 3D.

And lemme just say, by that point, it was all over. This game was now apart of my life. You could tell ‘cause suddenly all the references to Ventus in all of the games clicked for me and I WAS LOSING IT so much. I love that kinda stuff, I dunno why, but I doooo.

And then the year after... 2013.... y’all know what happened. KH3 was FINALLY announced to be in REAL development, even if it was development Hell. I remember watching the livestream for the first ever KH3 trailer as it was happening and I was crying. Lil’ 12-year old Storm Driver sitting at their father’s cracked and broken laptop, crying over one minute of pre-rendered game footage. It was real. I was going to play KH3.

So then the next few years were me establishing my love for the series. Right around when I turned 12 was when I’d actually been introduced to social media. I’d played games like Toontown and stuff on the computer, but I’d never used Instagram or anything before... I actually pride myself over still having my first ever IG account. I think I made it after the first KH3 trailer came out. Interesting.

I managed to get one of my at-the-time close friends into the game, and they let me borrow their 3DS so I could play Dream Drop myself! But we had a falling out the next year and we didn’t talk or communicate that whole time. Fun little anecdote, the name “Storm Driver.” I chose that name after I’d played 3D because it was the name of the track for one of my favourite songs. Except... the name was mistranslated. It’s supposed to be “Storm Diver.” But in pure spite, I kept it as it is today.

And that was how that friend of mine contacted me again, years later! They found my Tumblr and realized I was the same Storm Driver from the years prior and we reconciled and made up over what had happened. We still don’t talk much, just having each other added on Snapchat. But I’m happy that they reached out to me.

Years passed and my love for KH didn’t die, but it did settle a bit. It spiked again in 2015, when the gameplay trailers were finally being released. But nothing really dragged me back towards it. Until 2017. The orchestra tour...

OH FUCK MAN, I WENT WILD. I fucking lost it. I did not calm down, for three or four whole months, this exact Tumblr blog was busting out frickin’ KH posts and all the like. And it has not stopped at all. ‘Cause soon after that, 0.2 was confirmed and released and I was losing my god damn mind over it all. I was so hyped for KH3, words cannot properly describe. During those months, I came to meet some mutuals on Tumblr that I now consider very close friends. Even if we’ve never met, I still feel a lot of joy just seeing their names and icons pop up in my notifications feed.

I started playing KHUX after the orchestra tour trailer came out. I used to pride myself over having (at the time) ridiculously strong medals that pushed me forward through a lot of the Proud Mode content without spending a single dime on the game. But of course, those medals are outdated now. My KHUX character is probably just average at this point. But that’s okay. I don’t really play it anymore, heh.

And in the months leading up to KH3, I just did my best to stay relatively calm. I joined a few Discord servers for KH, but I found myself feeling out of place. I started getting interested in other things, and with no one to talk to over those things, i started to talk in the KH servers. I was asked not to and it eventually led to me go and create my own server. It was initially a Voltron server, but as VLD has ended, I changed it to be a community server, where people who just wanna talk can talk. It’s a “private” server at the moment, because I don’t want to overwhelm myself and my two friends who moderate it. I’ve opened it a few times, to help get some more people in who just wanna hang out.

My experience with Kingdom Hearts took a weird turn when KH3 was around the corner though. Someone kept making one-day accounts on Tumblr and DMing me the leaks of the game, including the ending. Lucky me, I hadn’t seen a whole lot of the plot-related stuff. But my impulse control is weak and I’d click the links just from the sight of them. So I knew what would happen to Sora at the end of the game before I’d even seen the final boss. I didn’t know how Roxas ended up there in the ending and I was REALLY happy to see him and Ventus and Xion standing together in frame. So I guess it kinda hyped me up to see how the game handled him and his return.

At the end of it, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed KH and I will continue to, I’m sure. I’ve also played TWEWY for the DS, so I’m sure that the tie-ins it’ll have with the future of Kingdom Hearts are going to be amazing. This game latched onto me when I was an infant, and it’s been nine long and incredibly fun years so far. I’m happy that we’re not done yet ^^

#kingdom hearts #kh3 spoilers #stormy weather #my post #this is about everything i can think of without going into heavy detail #anyways #hope this is what you meant anon ^^

Yeah it’s really cute, right? I love how many different expressions the characters had in a scene that lasted only a few seconds. You can tell a lot about their personalities. Isa is just pouting. He’s not going to act upset. Lea is pissed that Dilan is manhandling him. Dilan looks like he means business. He has kind of a scary look on his face.

It was a while after the night of the meteor shower. “Xehanort!” cried Even, bursting into the experimental lab in the basement. The other apprentices looked up from the various computers where they were sorting their data. This lab also served as a facility for producing Heartless in mass quantities.

Lea knows what’s coming. It doesn’t sink in as quickly for Isa. And look at how Dilan started smiling as he began to throw them, LOL. This is from the KH2 novel. They are back in the lab obviously disobeying Ansem. And they’re in the process of mass producing Heartless.

“What’s the matter?” asked Dilan with a nasty smirk. “Did Master Ansem say something again?”

Dilan was an asshole. No wonder he got no lines in KH3. The real Dilan never wanted Ansem to come back.

“So, they took out Xaldin without any help from us, huh?” Axel mumbled.

“Maybe,” Riku said quietly and gave no visible reaction.

Sora and the others had managed to defeat Xaldin. But Riku had not managed to just stand there without doing anything to help.

“Well, not that it matters.” Axel’s attention was on the bridge where Xaldin had fallen. Unlike when a Heartless fell, the Nobodies of the organization turned to darkness and evaporated into nothing.

The sight was like watching his own future unfold. It rattled him.

But Axel only stretched, arching his back and shaking off the unpleasant thoughts.

Now it hits Isa. And I love how his expression immediately changes from smug to “Oh shit!” I wish we got to see how Axel interacted with Xaldin. We only got to see how he reacted to Xaldin’s death. I bet he wanted to help take Xaldin out. But he still felt unsettled watching him disappear.

“And? When those difficulties do arise?” Xaldin, his arms folded from the start, regarded Saïx with disdain. “You may find yourself hard-pressed to handle every possible scenario.”

We barely see any interaction between Xaldin and Saïx, either. Just two instances.

“Bring back a deserter?! They should be destroyed!” Xaldin shouted.

“It’s not a deserter. It’s a broken doll to be collected for research purposes,” Saïx countered, and Xaldin glared.

And both of them show hostility. Isa can’t even get himself to uncross his arms right away. He did not see this coming.

His face is just pure deer-in-headlights.

Lea is trying to brace for the impact. Isa hasn’t scrambled any defense for himself and his expression still looks like he doesn’t know what’s happening. It was always hinted that Axel would know ALL about having something you treasure be a weakness. I definitely think that Dilan took personal pleasure in tormenting those two to punish them for trespassing so often.

“Yes. It seems that unless he completes some task before the rose withers, he’ll remain a beast forever.” Xaldin smirked at his own cleverness. “A beastly curse and a rose… Heh-heh. This will prove useful.”

Isa finally shields himself with his arms (kind of), but he still looks bewildered. It shows how innocent he was really. Like he just never imagined that anyone would THROW him. I am sure this was heavily exploited during the experiments.

When they hit the ground, Lea looks pissed, but Isa doesn’t. He still looks like he’s pouting. If I had to guess what they were thinking based on their facial expressions, Lea would be “Fuck you, you giant prick!” Isa would be “Owww. Was that really necessary?” Dilan would be “Ya like that, bitches?”

“Am I that easy to read?” Axel shrugged.

“Yes, because you’re completely guileless. You always were.”

“Excuse me? Were you always such a jerk?” Axel retorted, taking a seat on a shelf across from Saïx.

“Don’t sit on that.”

“Then put another chair in here.” He let his legs swing, the way he would sit at the usual spot.

“Somehow, I doubt that would stop you,” said Saïx.

Lea wants to kick Dilan’s ass. Isa looks like he still can’t fathom how anyone could act so barbaric and THROW children. Even Saïx has always struck me as a huge nerd. He fusses about Axel sitting on his shelf…but knows that Axel will still sit on it even if he got another chair.

Saïx stared at him hard. “Fine. You have permission to enter the lab. I’ll have an underling bring you the key.”

“Perfect. Glad that didn’t take too long. Now I can get to work.”

“Somehow, I doubt the scope of your investigation will be confined to work.” Saïx’s mouth curved into the approximate shape of a smile.

I got the sense that Saïx tried to overcompensate with Axel a lot because he knew Isa was not a very threatening person. Like he has hang-ups about Axel seeing him as a doormat or something because of their past.

“You’re letting yourself get too attached to them.”

“Right, sir, of course, sir.”

Saïx spun on his heels.

That was all he wanted to say to me?

Lea probably never listened to Isa. And I think that’s why Axel would sarcastically call him “sir” all the time. It’s because it’s such a reversal of their roles as humans where Isa seemed like he just followed Lea around. In BBS, Isa was nagging Lea to hurry while they were on their away to the castle. Lea didn’t listen to him, Isa relented without putting up any resistance, and happily watched him do what he wanted.

“Seriously, though, Saïx—”

But Saïx barely spared him a glance and pushed Axel’s hand from his shoulder. “Xion is not qualified to be counted among us.”

Chilled by the flat rejection in that low voice, Axel stepped back. “Not qualified? How?”

Saïx still didn’t look at him. “See for yourself. I have nothing more to tell you.”

If Saïx was saying that, he probably meant it. Axel stared at the stubborn set of his shoulders.

Both of them had changed.

“Wonder which one of us is more different now,” Axel said under his breath.

And I could tell that Axel acted obedient to Saïx because he felt like he was a damaged person and wanted to be delicate with him at all times. Not because he was really intimidated by him or afraid to stand up to him. And I think Saïx knew that Axel saw him that way and resented it.

“Top of the morning to you, sir,” said Axel, in a put-on tone, but Saïx turned to Axel disagreeably.

I found it kinda cute how Saïx would sit with his legs crossed. The only other member who sat like that was Luxord, the gentleman. I’m sure it’s because of the influence of Isa’s memories. If Lea ever called Isa “sir” it would have been Lea being playful and showing the side of himself that likes to please people. I definitely see Lea having a history of being very protective of Isa as a human and Dilan milking that for all it was worth.

Some interesting things of note: The Xehanort playing chess has grayish eyes, no sign of yellow or orange. In the opening of KHIII, there is a flash of purple in the sky though the window that Xehanort sees before his eyes flash purple. Seems to support that somebody did put ideas into his head. Too bad that plot is dead. Also, do you have any theories on the Cornerstone of Light in Disney Castle? I always thought there was something strange about it but never figured out why.

Maleficent: As do you, I see. Yes, he shared everything with me–how to go about winning a heart over to the darkness, and, most gloriously, about the seven hearts of pure light–the ones that would grant me the power I need to conquer all worlds. However, the worlds were too complex, too much for even me to contain. It seemed I had miscalculated. Then it came to me–of course! I could go about conquering other worlds in my own manner. You do have the “data” for all the worlds, do you not? And now you will hand it over to me.

Mickey: Why do you want the data?

Maleficent: I’m afraid that is no concern of yours.

Regarding the Cornerstone, I do remember that the portal to the Lingering Will appeared in the Hall of the Cornerstone. And that room does look kind of Castle Oblivion-ish. I don’t think it was ever really explained how Maleficent was able to appear in Disney Castle in KH3D. The Cornerstone of Light is supposed to prevent that. She wanted access to the datascape, kidnapped Minnie, then Lea intervened.

Maleficent: I now know that what I seek lies within these walls. Trust that I will eliminate you in good time.

Pete: Hey! Wait for me! Maleficent?

But even after she was defeated, she said that what she wanted was still inside Disney Castle’s walls. She was probably supposed to be involved with a different subplot involving the Book of Prophecies, but it got changed to the black box thing later. The Cornerstone probably was supposed to figure into the plot, but it got scrapped. I agree that the Cornerstone is strange. Maybe the KH3D novel will shed some light on it. You can see what looks like outer space inside of it.

I don’t know if it’s significant or not, but the artificial Kingdom Hearts kinda looks similar to it. Not like we ever learned what an artificial Kingdom Hearts is actually…

Whatever happened with Xehanort apparently started with that purple flash he saw in the sky.

Ansem: Take a look at this tiny place. To the heart seeking freedom this is a prison surrounded by water. And so this boy sought out to escape from his prison. He sought a way to cross over into other worlds. And he opened his heart to darkness.

Yeah, there really are SO many things that were left unresolved. It is too bad that the story is dead. I have been wondering for a while whether Xehanort himself was actually the first vessel of some non-human entity. Young Xehanort’s eyes were glowing yellow. His name is an anagram of “No Heart” with an “X” in it. Is Xehanort even his real name?

Riku: I heard once there was a kid who left for good.

Riku was pretty interested in the kid who left. Wouldn’t he have probably heard his name and recognized the name Xehanort? Then again, Mickey should have recognized his name, too…

No Heart was this boss. It was never explained what this thing actually is, though. Or what its connection to Xehanort is. It looks similar to those black things that fought with Xehanort in Scala ad Caelum.

— In other words, Ansem and Xemnas were simultaneously existing in the time-space of KH3D as well as their newly recompleted human form after being destroyed?Yes, it does turn out that way. However, as I said before, The World That Never Was–where the thirteen all met–is a special space. The mechanics behind how they were all able to exist at the same time is a mystery. From KH1 on, Ansem has returned no matter how many times he has been defeated, perhaps the same sort of thing happened.

I also wonder if The World That Never Was is the Sleeping version of Scala ad Caelum or something. In any case, there’s probably a connection. The cloud formations even look similar.

No Heart also looks a lot like Xion’s final boss form. I’m certain there was a TON of stuff we never learned about her true nature. After playing it again and rereading the Days novel, I am left with so many more questions than answers. What were those memory devices that were being placed? The novels really suggest there was a lot more to them. But I wanna do a separate post on that.

Xemnas promptly responded with orders for Saïx. “Have Xion look into it.”

Xigbar leaned back in surprise. “Why Xion? Are we not accounting for the possibility that our impersonator could be with Sora? Actually—do we even know where that trio went?”

Speaking of that purple flash you mentioned, something comes to mind. Xemnas insisted that Xion be the one to face Riku.

“Don’t let Xion out of your sight. Watch her and you will come to understand the Keyblade master.”

Then he said this, which I don’t really get. There was so much intrigue going on with Xion that was never explained.

He took her hand in his.

And—she saw something.

Red…a sky at sunset…

I remember.

A path stretching on and on. A crossroads… A brilliant moon.

A moonlit sky…?

“Let me go.” Xion wrenched her hand away.

Roxas cried her name as she left, but she didn’t even look back.

After Saïx started berating Xion (that also deserves its own post), she and Roxas had a mission in Twilight Town. This was on Day 151 ~Distress~. She was upset and he tried to console her. She ran away and in the novel she has a vision. From the description it sounded like the Keyblade Graveyard. I was like, what the hell?

Hey… Who are you?

Do you know who I am?

Xion tossed and turned in her bed. She couldn’t quite tell if she was awake or still dreaming.

I have to get up… But I can hardly move. I feel so heavy… Just a few more minutes.

Yesterday, she’d seen so many things when she pulled her hand away from Roxas. What were they?

Like that pitch-black sky.

There was more…but that was all she could remember now. She didn’t know whether it had any connection to her dreams.

Okay, now I have to get up. Right, here I am in my own bed, just like usual. And I can’t stay here today, because I can’t lose again.

That night she also has a dream. And it sounded similar to the scene where Xehanort was staring at the sky and saw the flash. Maybe? It’s so fucking weird.
