[ The moment the experiment ended, and Xion found herself once again in the body of a teenager, one single thought had occurred to her with absolute urgency and clarity:
I have to get out of here.
And so she had, taking the time only to grab some warm articles of clothing before bolting out of the house and north, into the woods.
Once safely out of sight of the village, she'd searched idly for a while until she found a tree she could climb up into, then done just that, settling herself back against the tree's trunk for a long, desperately needed Think.
It's about three hours later when she finally pulls out the journal she'd managed to grab on her mad dash out the door and address a few people who ... well, she needs to talk things over with. ]
( Sanji | Locked 100% )
... Sanji ... I have something I need to ask you.
( Naoki and Richard | Locked 100% )
I-- [ a pause. ] ... how are both of you?
( Wolfwood | Locked 85% )
[ this is going to be a bit blunt, since she can't say she knows him that well, but ... but. they're friends, right? ]
Have you spoken to Vash yet? Is he... um, better?
( Crona | Locked 50% )
Hey, where are you? You okay?
( Giles | Locked 100% )
[ Xion makes this filter, and then pauses for a long few minutes. It's hard to begin to know what to say. But it might be best to start with the most straightforward question. ]
Hey. How are you?
[ once her filters are done, Xion will continue to chill in her tree for about another hour, pondering her ring-less hand and severely depleted charm bracelet. then she'll make her way down and into the village, though she won't go home. She'll swing by the Straw Hat house to see if anybody she knows is in, then head into the village proper, wandering aimlessly and obviously avoiding home. feel free to run into her anywhere in town ... however, she'll be particularly evasive of anyone in the KH crew, especially Riku and Roxas. She will bolt if she sees either boy. Sorry, guys. ]

Physically, anyway.]
Yes, Xion-chan?
[Filtered]
[ she has to know. she tries to keep the inflection out of her voice -- unsuccessfully, but it's probably hard to read anyway, there's such a welter of emotions going on there. a little desperation, hope, sadness, fear, anxiety, uncertain excitement... ]
... would you really adopt me?
[Filtered]
What a long way she's come.]
Somewhere down the line? Of course. [If they're both still here. He's careful not to dwell on the possibilities that offer brings...
But for better or worse, he's telling the truth]
[Filtered]
her reaction after that is even more emotionally confused. he ... he said yes, just like that? like it's so easy?
why would he want her? even if it's Sanji... does he really want someone broken? someone who isn't even real? a monster?
but suddenly ... suddenly, those words don't carry the same weight they always would, in her mind. if Sanji.. Sanji would want to be her dad...
somewhat to her own surprise, her eyes abruptly well up with tears, and she hiccups, rubbing at her face with a hand. ]
Sanji...
[ her voice is choked up, and she can't even begin to know how to express what she's feeling. but maybe her smile, pale and amazed and unspeakably grateful, can say it for her. ]

[Filtered]
I just ... I don't know what to say. Thank you? [ another laugh ]
[Filtered]
