[ Because Roxas had called himself a Nobody. He'd said nobody had known who he was, and she doesn't like that he could even possibly resign himself to that fate. Someone like him... didn't deserve that. ]
I'd have to talk about ice cream a lot in your story, though.
[he can't help that. it's not like he doesn't want to exist as his own person... he does, badly. badly enough that he still can't even accept sora, even though he knows the truth. because if he's sora then... he's not himself, right?
he doesn't want that.]
I don't know what else there'd be to talk about anyway.
But you had best friends right? And now... you have friends here, too. Even if I'm not your best friend, there are things I think about you that would maybe surprise you.
[he nods a bit. roxas is still thinking it over but, but maybe he can understand it a little.]
I guess so. I just never really thought about what other people may think... something like that. Even having best friends, I just... never did. [now he's going to wonder about this. does he think things about other people that would surprise them, too?]
People are really complicated sometimes. [it's just one of those strange complexities of humans that never really occurred to him again. another layer of things for him to figure out, even if he knows mary means well by explaining it to him.
but that doesn't make it any less frustrating when none of it comes naturally to him.]
I want to be able to understand these things. [he's shaking his head a little and giving her a look of conviction.] Before... I didn't have anyone to tell me what it was like. So... I'm happy for it.
Even if it's still confusing. If you don't know... I'll ask someone who might. But still... it gives me something to think about. I don't have many other ways to learn that kind of stuff anyway.

Wait, I can't tell you! Otherwise it won't be a surprise when you read it!

[what could even be surprising about that.]

I think you can still be surprised by what people think about you, even if it is about you.
no subject
[knowing people is hard.] I guess I didn't know enough people before for that to matter.

I get really surprised by the things my friends tell me about myself, sometimes.
[ And sometimes it hurts, like with Styx. But for the most part, it's not a bad thing. ]
You could always try asking your friends, though. Or not. I think you'd learn sooner or later.
[ Except in Mary's case. ]
