The wind whipped past at a comfortable pace as the blue hues of the sky descended into rich, warm oranges and reds at the day's eyes began to flutter closed. The bustling crowds of Twilight Town began to die down, the people retreating into their homes to spend their last waking hours for this day.

Two figures, a boy and a girl, sat atop the old Twilight Town Clock Tower, watching the daytime creep into night. They watched silently as the time slipped by blissfully and enjoyably. But then, the boy's facial expression seemed to slip into that of deep thought. He turned his thoughtful golden eyes towards his companion, and said,

"Hey, Xed?"

The girl turned her head towards him. "Hm?"

"Sometimes I wonder…what it'd be like to be you…"

Xed gave him an odd look, before asking, "Why me, Kuxir?"

"Well…I guess not you specifically, but…to be Nobody like you." He ran his hands through his raven locks, and stared out at the sky, distantly. "I sometimes wish I could be you."

"Really? Why would you want to be a Nobody? A nothing?" She looked down, playing with the chain of her cloak absent-mindedly. "There's nothing great about being nothing…"

"You have memories."

She looked up, her pale grey eyes locking with his.

He returned the look seriously. "You can remember everything that happened to you as a Somebody. You don't have to strain to recall what happened the day before." Something in his eyes darkened faintly. "You don't have to worry about losing your most precious memories…"

"Kuxir…" She looked at him, incredulously. She had never known this was bothering him.

He continued, "And you have a will. You're allowed to follow your desires with your own power. We..." He looked away. "We Heartless are just puppets…we have no drive, other than to do what we're told."

A thin silence sprung up around them.

The brunette smiled faintly.

"Strange…I wish I could be you."

Now it was Kuxir's turn to be surprised. "You'd rather be a Heartless than a Nobody?"

"Yep."

"But why?"

Xed looked at him, with a sincere expression. "What's the point of remembering if you can't gain any feeling from it?"

Faint shock flooded his eyes. He hadn't even considered that.

She looked back out, towards the dwindling sunlight. "Heartless have Emotions. You can feel. We can't. What's the point of precious memories if they can't bring you happiness? Nostalgia? Even sadness or anger?"

She sighed, and went on. "And you guys have the choice of being Light or Dark. Good or bad. You can choose to be a good person. But us Nobodies…we can't…"

The two friends sat there in silence, with neither of them having not another word to say. The warm skies grew colder as the sun faded from sight, replaced quickly with the moon. Stars peeked out from the blanket of night, glimmering in their dainty glory.

And they continued to sit there, in silence. Nothing was said between them. Nothing had to be said, for both knew what the other was thinking.

"I wish I were you."

This drabble was one I've been wanting to writer for sometime now, and I decided now would be as good as ever to do so.

If you'll remember right, Kuxir's my OC (who I believe to be Riku's Heartless). No stealing, got it memorized?
