    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.
