oo24 [ voice // action for housemates ]
[ Xion sits down to make this post in her room, quietly unhappy about it, but knowing she has to persevere. He wouldn't want her to be sad, she knows it.
She'll have to find a new teacher.
But Xion finds she just can't sit still, and rises, speaking as she moves down the hall. ]
For anyone who knew him... Longshot has...
[ then she notices something. Sora's door is slightly ajar, and the inside of the room...
as if entranced, Xion slows, then moves towards it, giving a gentle push. ]
Gone ...
[ it's empty. the room is empty, completely bare of any sign that Sora was ever there. ]
... home.
[ and that's it. Xion has lowered her journal, giving an upside-down view of the wall through the journal's camera as she stares at this empty room.
it takes a moment -- a long, numb, endlessly empty moment that may go on for two or even three minutes -- for Xion to sink to her knees. only then does she finally, slightly, come back to her senses. she adds her final statement in a voice that, while even, is just barely above a whisper. ]
And ... and Sora ... Sora has also ... gone home.
[ if heartbreak had a sound, it would sound like her voice. for anyone who replies to her over the journals, it will be some time before she responds. housemates will likely get to her first. ]

[ she pauses, almost like she wants to say something else. "don't ever leave," perhaps. but the words don't come out. instead her voice remains soft, impossibly sad. ]
I knew when he wouldn't get back to me that something had to be up... I think it might have happened a while ago. But you're welcome.

[Sure, that doesn't make you stop missing a person, but... he hopes it helps.]

[ it's true; she means it. but it doesn't sound very convincing at all, what with her voice so hollow. ]
[Voice]
I'm sorry about Sora.
