[okay the calm might be starting to splinter a bit]

Roxas of course I realize that, I'm not stupid--do you think I haven't taken all that into consideration? [this is just kind of a rush, he's clearly not angry at Roxas at all] I know what I need to do. This isn't even about fighting Vanitas, I killed his body and his spirit. But his darkness is still inside me, and in this realm it's been getting much, much worse--

[taking a breath] I've got minutes, Roxas, minutes. I don't know what'll happen when I get brought back, I can only hope it'll buy me some time, because I don't--I don't want to be the X-blade, even if it isn't terrible for Aather and I'm pretty sure it will be, I don't want to live on that way--
