There are BFFs and then there are BFFs, and then there's Axel and Roxas. For a guy who swore by the idea that he had no heart, Axel sure did give a lot of damn about Roxas, even if he hadn't exactly been very adept at showing it. The fact that he had a heart all along notwithstanding, having his old one back now means Lea is going to find there's a whole new spin to their friendship these days: he doesn't have to tell himself these are just leftover memories of things he used to feel anymore.

Even with his heart back, though, the number of people Lea would willingly stick his neck out for is very small. Roxas easily tops that list anyway; hell, he died once for him, and he really wouldn't hesitate to do it again (though honestly, he would prefer it didn't come to that). Really, Roxas was the one that kept Axel honest here in Port: after sufficiently screwing everything up once, Axel made a promise to himself that he wouldn't keep his friends in the dark anymore, and Lea means to make sure that promise continues to be kept. Roxas forgave him when even Axel didn't think he deserved forgiveness for his sins, and that isn't something Lea's about to take for granted. The sincerity gig has been tough, but he's mostly stuck to it. Hey, old habits die hard, okay? He gets points for effort if nothing else.

Something about Roxas always made Axel think twice about the idea that they didn't have hearts--when Roxas was around, he could laugh like he used to back before he lost his, and somehow the idea of being a Nobody never seemed so bad in that kind of company. Lea would be lying, though, if he said he wasn't a bit abashed by the revelation that maybe they'd had hearts the whole time--maybe it should have been more obvious, but well... there's that hindsight thing again.

After telling Roxas and Xion the truth about his untimely demise back home, he never expected to discover there was more to the story after all. Upon returning back to the Port complete with heart after a horribly-timed trip home, Lea's first priority was to find Roxas and set the whole record straight. And if Lea has anything to say about it, the record will remain straight from here on in. He already made a promise to be better about telling the truth, but he's going to be making a concerted effort to really be the kind of friend Roxas and Xion deserve. Lea might be too embarrassed to admit that he loves those kids with the entirety of that new old heart of his, but he kinda hopes they know it anyway.
