Do you love me.

[cloakanddaikon]

Yes we had a thread where Zexion even said so explicitly. Arson is probably his most important purely-Sabra relationship, and he would totally go all midboss for him if ever it was needed.

Do you love me?

[grewuptootsun]

Yes. Best weird not parent figure ever. Yuta loves him as much as a Yuta can love a man.

ANYTHING DEEPER BRO or we just doing that

[homoenculus]

♥ ?

[cloakanddaikon]

That isn't a question.

[overclocking]

FINE GOSH

Tell me about your replica feelings and why you imprinted so hard, Zexion

[heroic_homemaker]

Have we talked enough for a generic relationship starter yet. Either way we should talk more.

[cloakanddaikon]

We should talk more, Arson's-important-person.

Zexion found it very interesting that Taisuke actually told him what was gong on with the seeing-heart's-darkness thing. Even more interestingly, the moment Taisuke opened up was right when Zexion had indicated that not talking was okay, and that Taiskue was entitled to his secrets and privacy. Like Taisuke was so used to running from being pursued that the moment he was let go, it somehow earmarked Zexion as 'safe'.

That aside, Zexion mostly relates to and views Taisuke in terms of 'this is Arson's important person'. There hasn't been much that they've really connected on outside of that; the impression he's gotten is that Taisuke's understandably a bit wary, and he's fine with that.

How's Taisuke handling the whole 'you died' thing?

[heroic_homemaker]

He's not loving it! He hasn't dealt at all with the way he died, Taisuke's default reaction is to smile through his troubles and shonen hard! But he's not feeling the righteous shonen strength right now, he got the people he loves captured and experimented on and when he tried to save them he failed. Yuta died and he doesn't know if the Tezuka's got out okay, it's devastating to him. Even worse because of the Sabra bad end where he failed to keep his promise to save Tena and help Daisy, he told Yuta he'd make sure it all turned out okay and it didn't. And he likely told him the same thing when they were escaping, and guess what happened again. He's feeling really weak and terrible and full of lies and empty words, but at the same time he can't stop trying and refuses to talk like he's given up. He doesn't know if he can get Yuta home again, his confidence has taken such a beating that he's on some level sure he'll fail again, but it's a level deeeep down that he puts a lot of effort into ignoring.

Dying itself is horrible, when he put so much effort into trying to live, he fought so hard to defy his alien headmonster, he had so much to do and responsibilities, he's going to make his sister cry again, Hirose is still loose and he can't help Megu... AND he's still coping with the fact that he's a murderer now, because people die when you blow them up. And for someone like Taisuke who values human life so much, that's not an easy thing to swallow. He doesn't know what to do with himself or how to act, and he's trying so hard to hold it together because Yuta is here, and he can't fail him again, he has to be strong for him and get them both home, but really. Kid needs a good cry at some point.

How's Zexion reconciling his Sabra relations with Camp Plus experience?

[sharksong]

How does Zexion feel about Nova right now?

[cloakanddaikon]

A bit wary, honestly. I think I mentioned it in plurk, but the whole boot to the head thing was a little too reminiscent of mistakes made long ago with Axel—he was far more trusting of Nova's intentions than he should have been, and it ended with being hurt.

In Nova's case, it obviously wasn't meant like that, and he's aware there would likely be a good deal of surprise (and hurt) were Zexion to lay that out. As such, it's not something Zexion's planning on bringing up, so much as it's just . . . a tactical shift. Giving Nova his space (which is Nova's preference anyway), staying out of arm's reach, keeping defensive magics closer to mind. With Yamamoto, too, and (pre-drop, at least) Apt. Y as well.

That said, he still feels like he's finally on more solid footing with Nova-Scowl than he's he's been in just about ever. It was breaking and I helped fix it. Not completely by a long shot, but it was a bad situation and Nova actually left it a bit better. It's not the greatest of starts in building a new relationship, but it is, finally, a start.

What was Nova's take on the whole 'stop yelling and just let me hug you' thing?

[greenthummons]

He doesn't have very specific thoughts on it, but it was an overwhelmingly positive moment. It was basically exactly what he needed and something he doesn't often get when he's breaking down that badly--just that obvious, open comfort. It pretty much instantly repaired any damage that had been done with Zexion regarding the Excel incident. He can accept that it was an honest error, basically. And it helped to move Zexion into more of a . . . like a caregiver role? It's not exactly that, but he's a bit closer to that than just a friend or a teammate.

What is his biggest concern with the Sabra punks he considers to be his?

[smileathindisguise]

terribly old RP thing but do you still like me

[cloakanddaikon]

Fay was actually listed in the Important Relationships section of Zexion's app, and came up in conversation with both Ginko and Syaoran. Whether he'd admit to it is an entirely different story.

(There was one incredibly sad thread I ran into while reviewing, one of their last in CFUD, where Zexion and Fay talked about what would happen if they both forgot each other and met up again on some other world. Like most of Sabra, Zexion tries not to think about it.)

What would camp!Fay think of Syaoran ending up in Thusia?

[smileathindisguise]

a-awww '^' can I get those links if it's possible ♥ and ... sob yes Sabra, I think they talked only a handful of times

Camp!Fay would be a little devastated about Syaoran in Thusia since ... well, being dead. Not!son should not be there at all what happennnnned :( Zexion also being there would make his heart break.

[unwieldyfate]

ARE THERE ANY SABER FEELS WE HAVEN'T DISCUSSED YET? :|a

[cloakanddaikon]

Yes. Yes there are many. Would you like to hear some of them?

[misterious]

First impressionssssss.....

[cloakanddaikon]

Gosh she just. Tries so hard.

Zexion enjoys talking with her. She's obviously intelligent and observant, and their conversations are interesting. But his impressions of her are also tempered by just how painfully new 'Nikki' is to being dead, being on a world completely separate from her own, and being in a place that likely has few, if any, ties to her past.

The fact that there is a past there is a given. She's not even trying to hide that, and her attempts to stay removed do nothing but make it more obvious that she has plenty she's hiding.

In a kind of bemused way, he's not sure whether she's just really inexperienced, completely indifferent, or if she's looking for someone to ask those questions.

Reverse?

[devotedtothecore]

So will you be buying a 3DS after all.

[cloakanddaikon]

Yes, how is that even a question. At this point I'm just looking over the colours.

How's that 'being here at the whim of the gods' thing working out for Chrysos?

[hyanaimne]

So what do you think of Tempest, Zexion :|a

[cloakanddaikon]

Tempest is kind of some beautiful unholy combination of Vexen, Axel and Larxene, and she fits very neatly into an otherwise empty hole in Zexion's afterlife. It's not even that he actively dislikes her so much as it is it's just easier to have horrible sniping arguments with her than it is to interact as if they're both perfectly functional mature adults.

The only real snag he's run into so far is that Tempest seems to take these things personally in a way that most of his antagonistic relationships don't. But. Well. That doesn't really bother him too much, it's just a bit inconvenient.

Kind of looking forward to the day she tries to set him on fire and he takes her home to Chrono in a book.

So what does Tempest think of Zexion?

[no_hero]

GIVE ME PRUSSIA ESSAYS.

. . . I AM TOO LAZY TO LOG OUT OF THIS ACCOUNT. HAVE TINY KERRY ICON.

[cloakanddaikon]

THAT IS NOT A QUESTION.

ASK A QUESTION.
