[There isn't even an answering machine message here, only some horrible recreation of the theme from that one SBaHJ video he did made completely of clips of different bird calls.]
No. I don't think you do. It seems like they're friends, and the reason Xion was upset because he didn't remember her. Because of the whole existence... thing.
[Davesprite lapses into silence for a while, comparing what he knows and how she acted that morning with Eren's report. Their conversation may have ended in laughter and a strange, dizzying freedom, but he can't just forget how his stomach dropped when she said, 'It was never going to be okay.'
He's checked the chronology. Time guy, it's what he does. She was distant after the Axel guy showed up, but she didn't freak until Riku.
[Eren is glad at least ONE of them can keep up with time. He can't. But then, Eren is the feelings guy.]
Me?
Well, for one thing, he didn't even bother talking to me with the voice function until I told him my name. He seems... cold. Withdrawn? Standoffish for sure. Got real defensive before I even asked anything. But since our conversation wasn't too long, I wasn't able to get a really good read on him. I mean, I don't think he's a bad guy. I don't think anyone Xion calls a friend could be a bad guy. But I don't know if I like him.
Buddy, I hate to tell you this, but I'm cold and standoffish and also rude as fuck. And I didn't switch to voice with you right away, either, and look where we are now.
[The faint wash of humor ebbs away again as he goes over what he has assembled of the Kingdom Hearts Canon Puzzle. It's not much.]
All right. I'll drop him a line soon, see if I can pull anything else out of him now that you've softened him up for me. As a native speaker of Withdrawn Assholese, maybe I can get somewhere you can't.

What's your take on the guy, personally.

[candid as ever, Eren. And yeah, their puzzle is pretty sparse. And mostly wrong.]
Pfft. Assholese. [ahem] Yeah, do that. Let me know if you find out anything else!
voice
Yeah. Will do. Ten-four, dude.
voice
Alright. I'll talk to you later. [NO "I LOVE YOU" because that's too sappy even for Eren. Instead he just hangs up!]
