"2nd  Entry  ~  Troubling Matters"


The world seems to me to be growing fainter. Slipping further into the realm of nothingness that surrounds it...or....perhaps it is myself whom is slipping. I usually am able to find comfort and rest in the Room of Sleep, with in the presence of my 'old friend', but now even that seems to be slowly fading away.
The Plan, though it is still making much progress, seems to be less then what it was. It shall take even more time to complete. Time, the ever present destroyer, is not on our side and we still have much to accomplish.

As it would seem, the other members are starting to take on the effects, as well...whether they are aware of it or not.

While in my absence of retire..it would seem that Number IV, having discovered my where-abouts from Number VI, has been on a constant inquiry to Number II as to my eventual return. That, in turn, created some irritation in Number II; in which case he decided to "take a breather" and took on the task of weekly shopping along with Number III. This I shall not allow again, as both Xigbar and Xaldin have now been proven unreliable with such a task. I shall then continue to leave this and other certain matters of importance in the more capable and reliable hands of Number VII.

On the other  matter of Number IV and his irritable impatience...I have decided to give him a certain project to help ease his nerves, which will then ease the nerves of the others in turn.
While collecting the heart of someone else in the academic field, I happened to come across a project that they were previously engaged in. It involved the generational breeding of mice. I have decided to hand this project over to Number IV and have ordered him to look into and further it by seeing if, through the family's generations, these mice can tap into and release the darkness in their faintly small hearts...by no other means save breeding and "conditioning". Vexen seemed slightly irritated and reluctantly pleased by this "pet" project that I have given him, to which I heard him call it "Soylent Project" under his breath as he retreated to carry it out the assignment. Why he should name it this..I am yet unsure.

On another matter....In my observations and reports from Numbers II, IV and VII...I feel something must eventually be done about Number XIII and all that is starting to occur with his behavior and person. As of yet...I am undecided as to the next course of action. However....I am sure that the future shall hold the adequate situation and opportunity for which I shall be able to proceed.
It is starting...and Roxas is becoming more aware. What is truly held in store for the chosen wielder of the Keyblade? How shall he progress...and proceed?
