Summary
“Do you ever miss home?” Axel then breaks the silence. “Radiant Garden.”
“I try not to,” Saïx says.
“Yeah…”
Saïx means to reiterate the question, but he finds himself unable to speak. As if his vocal cords have been cut. There’s just not much left for him to say.
The silence isn’t necessarily uncomfortable, but there’s only so long Saïx can go now. Way back when, before they lost their hearts, he and Axel—Lea—could go hours without the need to speak to one another. Hours sitting in silence. Enjoying each other’s company. It had been soothing.
They’re not kids anymore, though. They’re Nobodies. Numbers. Disposable. And there’s nothing reassuring about the thought of having to return to the empty Castle. Nothing reassuring about the Organisation. About strangers.

Summary
Lea gets up from the chair and lays on the bed beside Isa. He doesn’t let go of his hand, messily twining their fingers instead. He turns his head to look at Isa. Watches the steady rise and fall of his chest.
When they first became Nobodies, this was what they did. They would just lay together well into the night. Enjoy each other’s company. Something about those moments never felt like enough, though. There had always been something missing. Well…their hearts, but aside from that. Unless… Maybe it never was any deeper than that.
He swallows hard. That’s not the case anymore.
