[Roxas' smile fades a little at the look (or looks) on Terra's face, though it doesn't disappear completely. If Terra is friendly with Axel—and he must be, because Roxas knows how people who aren't friendly with Axel act when they bring him up—then he gets at least a little benefit of the doubt from him.

(Except, why does he look so surprised to hear that they're best friends? Was he feeling more than just surprise? It's like Roxas is still missing some important pieces of this puzzle.)]

A long time now. Sometimes it feels like forever.

[My whole life, he doesn't say. It wouldn't be so bad to tell Terra that they met on Roxas' very first day, the day he got his new name. If he already knows about Nobodies, that probably wouldn't sound so strange to him.

It's just that if he goes into how he was born and how he didn't have any memories, then he has to explain about him and Sora, too, and how they were separate and then they weren't and now they are again. And maybe it's not a secret, but starting off his time in this new world by defining himself as half of someone else isn't something he wants to do.]

How long have you known him? He didn't mention you earlier. Sora, either. I guess we had other stuff to talk about, though.
