[ Use him. Just as the Organization had used them... Her and Roxas and Axel. They had all been nothing more than their pawns. Pawns that without usefulness would be discarded as had been the attempt with that set up mission. The very one that had sent Xion running from them, intent on returning. Only in Ven's case, it sounded worse. Like whoever this was... they had been intend on enjoying his suffering either way. Whether through directly hurting the people that mattered to him... or using him to hurt them. Either way, the people he cared for most would come to harm. And that very thought makes her clutch her free hand tight into a fist.

Is it really just like the choice she made, herself? She can't deny it's- it was a difficult one to make... Never one she had ever wanted... but just like his own... there was someone. Someone so important to her. To her and Axel, that she just... couldn't let things go the way the Organization had intended for things to go. If one of them had to be erased...
And then that train of thought gets flew out the window. Because suddenly, her hood's off and she's staring straight into his blue eyes with her own of a matching shade. She doesn't struggle to replace it. Whatever damage that could have been potentially been done has passed by that point. But it doesn't make her feel any less naked and afraid.
But... all he does is continue to speak. Like things... are nothing out of the ordinary. About difficult choices to make... and how choosing it, regardless... Did that truly...? She doesn't know. And that still leaves out one little matter unresolved to everything, something she has to know. She looks off to the side. ] ...Ven? Where's Sora now?
[ ...Well, she does wonder who he sees, too. But she'll... find the courage for that in a little yet. ]
