[ Despite Demyx's protests, Cain isn't quite convinced. Maybe this "Superior" doesn't have the heart itself, but he still doesn't like the way Demyx speaks of him. Holding a heart hostage until some kind of project is finished...? Or is this "Kingdom Hearts" thing what's meant to return the heart?
Whatever the case, there's something off about it. Something that doesn't quite add up when Demyx is so unbothered by everything. When he doesn't quite seem to have the capacity to care about things the way he should. ]
Well, um. [He pauses to consider that.] When people lose their hearts, we collect them and bring them all together and that's what Kingdom Hearts is, but the Superior says that it will restore the balance to everything.
[And then, he can have his heart.]
We've been working on it a long time, him longer than me though, for me it's been like...well I was this big.
[He holds his hand mid-chest] When I joined, I mean, it's been...uh...eight or nine years? Something like that.
Wouldn't it make more sense to seek out those who've lost their hearts and return them?
[ Rather than gathering them all to create... well, he's still not entirely sure what it is. But it seems like what Demyx describes is more stealing hearts than restoring balance. ]
Can't you tell if it's yours? I'd think there'd be some sort of resonance, at least...
[ But he's more contemplative, considering the problem presented. It is a difficult one, made harder still by how for him, such a problem is entirely theoretical. ]
[ Is it even possible to return a heart, then? Cain's expression shutters as he tries to keep that thought from his face. Better not to bring it up; even if this man doesn't feel things the way he should, that's not the king of thing he'll be happy to hear. Better to leave him some hope. ]
But neither your Superior or this incomplete Kingdom Hearts is here. [ The problem at hand, one that Cain can at least try to help with. ] Do you still plan to seek your heart even now?
