Dear Roxas,

That's how the game is played! I'm not sure what he's trying to teach you either, but I think figuring it out is probably part of the game too.

Most people aren't as smart as you, probably. But I'm glad Aya helped you out! I'm not very good at sparring. Even with my brothers, it's very hard to hold back, and they get offended if I do, but I don't want to hurt them! And it's hard to use my full strength. Birds have to conserve energy, so I'm always thinking two steps ahead. Besides, racing is more fun if you ask me!

Who is DiZ? I don't think I've heard the term Nobody or Heartless before in the way you're using them either. Can you explain them? You seem like Somebody important with a Heart to me, so I don't get it. I still like that my name is like yours, so you can tell Lea I'll kick him for complaining about it. I think it's creative.

If Xemnas comes, I'll help fight to protect you. Mr. Marco, Mr. Thatch, and Captain Ace will too I'm sure. And Lea. So don't worry too much, okay? Individually we're strong, but together we're even stronger.

It's okay to be sad sometimes, but there's nothing wrong with being protected either. Our Pops was the strongest man in the world, but we all still protected him. Being strong just means that sometimes you know you have to have help protecting the things important to you, and being loved means people want to protect you. Mr. Marco says it's really hard for a lot of people to love themselves so that's why they have to let other people help protect them. It's hard, because when everyone wants to protect each other, they don't want someone getting hurt instead of them. Captain Ace has that trouble a lot. He doesn't want his crew ever hurt so he always tries to make sure he blocks it all, but sometimes that doesn't work, and then what?

For now, I think you should just work on finding a place means way [[In which Marco has trouble translating this word in his own head and has to get Thatch's help]] happy medium where both you and Lea can accept protecting each other. My brothers and I don't always want each other's protection either, but if we don't find a way to get it, we won't be as strong in battle as we need to be.

Not having all of your memories must be really scary! I know I'd be scared! Mr. Marco says he would too. I think I get it though. It's tied in with the heartless nobody thing, right? If you got all your memories back you'd be somebody? So maybe it's part of yourself protecting you. Or part of the computer thing do it. I don't know much about that kind of thing I guess.

What if you got an VIII with a heart? That way it shows Lea you understand that even though he's not the same, even though he's changing, you still appreciate the past.

I wanted to tell you about Thatch. He's different too now. There's a lot I can't say, but sometimes it scares me. I think sometimes I probably scare him too because I'm not the same, and that's really hard. I had to do some things I hated, and he's upset about that because he wasn't able to do them for me instead, or even able to help me with them. It must be really tough with Lea, but I think maybe he feels a bit like that. He doesn't want to remember the bad things, but it's hard for him to remember that there good things there too. I guess that leaves it to you to remind him of the good things, but still be ready to make even more new good ones! It'll be really hard, but do you think you can do it?

That's what I'm trying to do with Thatch. The things different about him now scare me, but they're a lot more like me than I ever thought possible! So I have to try to give us both a chance to do those new things.

If you fall asleep for days again I'll definitely come join you, but I won't kick you. Lea would get really mad, and it never wakes up Captain Ace so I don't think anything would work on him like that.

I'll make us a fort on the deck too. Just in case. It depends on whether Mr. Marco sends me on a mission. He doesn't know yet because he says it depends on another crew, but if I stay here tonight instead, I'll be out on deck where you can find me.
