[It's a little hard to speak through the sudden lump in her throat, and when she puts a hand up to her face she's startled to find her eyes watering more than a little bit. Quickly she uses the same hand to wipe at them. She doesn't remember if Xehanort was comfortable with that sort of thing. Not to mention it probably didn't make sense, bursting into tears right after seeing him again. And she didn't want him to think it was his fault, or a bad thing.]
Yeah, I do. I remember a lot.
[Truth be told, the memories forcing themselves back into her mind are a bit overwhelming in some ways. There's the feeling of loss - she feels it just as sharp now, even though she hadn't realized how much she'd lost or for how long.
There were other bits pushing themselves in too. The coliseum. The pet store she'd worked at. That damn book and the fangirls. Aqua helping her with her shoulder. Lea. Lea. Her breath catches again. Not Axel, Axel hadn't been there. Lea.
It doesn't matter if he's restraining himself, Xion doesn't. She wraps her arms around him - if he'll let her - in a hug, a tight one. Not only has someone precious been returned to her, now she has hope that, someday in the future, another will be as well.]
