ᴍɪʀʀᴏʀᴇᴅ;; {naminé&kairi}
The concept of a Nobody was one that still confused the Princess of Heart.
It was a topic that she was aware of, but couldn’t comprehend fully. After all, she still had much to learn. Of course, she slowly understood day by day while piecing information together, as she began her own training regime and educational grandeur when Master Yen Sid had first invited her in. But even so—
The redhead struggled with the many facts thrown at her. It was all coming too quickly, too much at once. Unlike her other two companions, the petite young woman had to consume all the information at once and as much as possible. Not that she couldn’t do it — but simply because it would take her a little more time to comprehend.
All she knew for now was that Namine was a part of her. And in the end, that was all that mattered.
There were times, though, as if she felt that she could communicate with the blonde. And even to the point where she could see her before her very eyes. Almost as if she existed separately from her, able to see the sights that she saw in a different light. But just as quickly as those moments came, they usually dispersed before the thought could be processed.
This would be one of those times.
As a familiar voice spoke, attracting her attention away from the scenery before her — locks of golden could be seen at the corner of her eyes. Slowly, but surely, a graceful simper curved the Princess’s lips as she turned back towards the horizon, entranced by the waters and its glow. “—-It is, isn’t it?”
“No other sights out there can match this one.” She murmured in response, hands coming to clasp behind her back.
Whether or not the two girls, the same yet different, could actually communicate with each other had not been tested yet. Mostly because she had never dared to speak or say a word when suddenly appearing besides the other girl, after all there was no telling what could end the moment in time. But the words had been said thoughtlessly, enough so that she hadn’t even thought that she had said them, so when the other girl responded she turned to look up at her Somebody.
Sometimes Naminé thought that, if someone were to look at them next to each other they would look nothing alike, until they really looked at their faces. Identical features, yet completely different coloring in the spaces that people defined as important. Sora and Roxas were much the same way, identical yet different at the same time—as if fraternal twins in one way or another.
Staring up at the redheaded girl for a few moments the Nobody tilted her head slightly before accepting that yes, they could actually interact with each other (and it wasn’t as hard a thing to accept as some may imagine, because it just simply was) and turning back to look out over the ocean, at the sky. After a moment she nodded, but then realized that Kairi probably wasn’t looking at her and cleared her throat slightly.
It had been some time, since she had actually spoken.
”The sunset in Twilight Town can be beautiful…” she said softly, eyes still entranced by the horizon in the distance. And it was true, Twilight Town as a whole was beautiful, but Destiny Islands was something else entirely. Before, she had come to this world because a tug of nostalgia brought her there (like it had, inexplicably, brought her to Radiant Gardens) because she was a part of Kairi, and doubtlessly any part of the Princess of Heart would always yearn to return to the island world she had grown up on. Even if that part of her did not have any memories of the lifetime before.
And, in the end, Naminé could not bring herself to mind, just as she couldn’t bring herself to mind no longer being her own separate entity. She was a part of Kairi that was never meant to exist, never meant to walk between the worlds and be her own person, have her own thoughts and wishes. Little more than an anomaly, and she had accepted that a long time ago. ”You’re right though, this sight is far more beautiful.”
Casting a glance up at the young woman besides her once more, the blonde stared at her for a few moments, before bringing a small smile to her face. In many ways, she was pleased that she was able to see Kairi, and even able to speak to her—even if she did, distantly, know everything that had been going on. Or at least to the extent that the Princess of Heart did. ”How have you been, Kairi?”
