Roxas looks up, stunned and wide-eyed. It's not like when Kairi first approached, when the light had made her look - for only a second - like someone else. This is Namine, his enigmatic guide and apologetic hand in his fate. Someone he never blamed for the factors that led to his surrender to the destiny laid out for him.
She was as much a pawn as he.
Roxas isn't sure why he reaches for her hand. He isn't a person who seeks out contact like this, and yet... a part of him feels starved for the contact. Is it because he finally has a body he can call his own..? Is it because he is living now for himself, for the people he cares about, and not a passive passenger riding the figurative coattails of someone the universe needed more?
"I'm... I'm glad you're here," he says, finally. "Are you okay?" Have you tried this food???
