Well, it was more ME cheating honestly....

[She listens and the fireflies gather more and more around the cube, making it glow. A gentle, beating warmth and he can feel it, how his feelings flow into the cube. The cube that's such a basic building block of everything, the potential for everything, and it's taking those feelings, making it part of it's whole structure. A literal manifestation of the emotions.]

[There's a flash and the cube has changed. The same blue of his eyes, with an orange border that matches his text.]

Thank you.

You're welcome.

[Clashing colors. How subtly fitting to his personality.

He'll set it down once the color change has finished, pulling away from Roxy to slip her hands into his, still holding them tight.]

...Is there anything else I can do for you here? Anything at all?

[It would have been blue, BUT THEN YOU TEXTED.]

[Also, the Hope symbol? Is now complete. CONGRATS.]

[She's smiling gently, squeezing his hand. She closes her eyes.]

Describe a view you love to see.

[YAY I DID A THING

He grows quiet, thinking for a long moment.]

...

A beach of white sand, clear skies... water clear enough to see to the bottom for ages.

[You Amaltheans and your water.]

[There's quiet, a stillness to the air. Then....the world around them chances.]

[It's clear night skies, because the fireflies are still around, as is the pool, Hope symbol, and blocks, but the scene he described is now around them.]

[And Roxy is beaming.] I can create now.

[Hey, hey, this is less waterboner and more sad nostalgia, okay. Which is a little more readable than normal as the atmosphere changes. He hears her, flashes her that smile, though it's all tinted with a hurtful sort of longing.]

You can. It's really something, isn't it...

[She nods and looks at him thoughtfully. She squeezes his hands.]

Did I tell you...what a Rogue of Void can do?

[Shaking his head.]

No. All you've mentioned is that it was a passive role, instead of an active one.

A Rogue of Void is a creator role.

A Rogue steals their aspect for the sake of others. I take the nothingness from things, so they can exist. This room needed to be fixed, because Hope is an aspect of making things a reality, so I needed it to be part of me.

And now I can make things again. I have the base I need to do it.

...Heh.

I'm glad, Roxy. I hope you can keep doing that.

I think I can this time.

[She smiles at him.]

I have a stronger base now than I had before.

And because everyone's worked hard to make it easier to get more pieces.

One day I'm gonna make Heart a reality.

Your charisma's as impressive as ever.

Heart must be further in, right? I don't think I've seen it yet, anyway.

[She nods.] The next room. I can send you to her and she can send your anywhere, even True Heart.

I understand.

[And yet he hesitates, arms crossed tight as he stares back out at the ocean.]

Though...

...

...You don't mind if I give it another minute, do you?

That's fine.

It's nice to enjoy the scenery with others.

And...remember things?

[A slight nod.]

Yeah.

Sometimes remembering things isn't quite so bad.

[She nods.]

It's important to, I think.

Definitely.

Forgetting some things, some people... it's like having to lose them all over again, you know?

...

[Gonna just. Walk down to the beach and plop there. Don't care that the surf's getting my pants all wet, viva la Hod and all that.]

...yeah. [She nods.]

[Well, nothing wrong with that. She'll come join him on the beach and enjoy the peace and the fireflies.]

[The fireflies are a nice touch, ngl.]

...

Where I lived when I was young... it looked a lot like this.

[Spirits all day everyday.]

It's a beautiful place. Peaceful.

Yeah. Used to be a huge dock on the other side of the island for plenty of boats... houses and streets made of white stone...

I miss it sometimes.

[All the time. Constantly. But eh. Details.]

...can you visit it, or is that not an option?

[A heavy pause, before he shakes his head.]

Not an option. It's gone.
