Roxas: How is it?
Xion: It's sweet and... salty
Roxas: But does it taste good?
Xion: Yeah
Roxas: This is the kind of ice cream that Axel likes. It's called 'Seasalt ice cream'
Roxas: The first time we finished our mission, me and Axel had it as a reward
Xion: You guys are really close
Roxas: eeeh?

p18:
Roxas: yeah, It's because we're friends
Roxas: After our missions, we always come here and eat ice cream while talking about nothing.
Xion: Could I also become your friends?

p19:
Roxas: yeah, the three of us could all eat ice cream
Xion: really?? Sounds fun!
Xion: Ah?
Roxas: It's a "winner"!
[Winner]
Xion:?
Roxas: When you take it to the store, you get another ice cream free!
Roxas: When Axel comes back, I'm gonna show him
[At that time... I was dying to have ice cream, just the three of us]

p20:
Day 26
[Now that Xion and I became friends, I wonder what face Axel will make...]
Demyx: Is there any definite information? I heard it wasn't a mistake!
Roxas: What happened?
Demyx: None of your business!
Xigbar: We heard that all the members who went to Castle Oblivion have disappeared.

p21:
Roxas: .... Disappeared?
Demyx: I'm so glad I didn't go!
Xigbar: I wish you would have
Roxas: What's "disappear"?
Xigbar: They're gone, kid
Demyx: hey hey hey that's too harsh old man!
SFX: *wrestling sounds... this manga is surprisingly kinky*
Saix: Hey! What are you doing?

p22:
Roxas: What's happening at Castle Oblivion?? Is it true they've all disappeared??
Saix: I don't know. We're in the middle of investigating.
Roxas: Ah... Is Axel... ?

p23:
From the dusks' report we've heard there was total destruction.

p24:
Saix: At the very least, there's a mission today. Today, you're going with Xigbar.
Xigbar: Wha! That's so cruel
Saix: It's time for your mission, go quickly.
