Sleeping to Dream

" Fading memories... Reconstructing memories... And a dream --
A dream of you, in a world without you. "

A belated birthday present for my friend AmatusVanitas, based on her fanfiction with the same name.

Inspired most especially by these lines:

"Are you leaving soon?" Xion's voice cracks, but when Riku turns his head to check on her, she's still tracing constellations with her eyes, not a trace of sadness anywhere on her face.
"Yeah...  Can't let Sora beat me home, can we?"
"That's true."  Xion almost-smiles, but it doesn't brighten her expression so much as bring to light how frayed at the edges she's become over the past year of sleep.

It's a short fanfic, though, and highly worth a read!  (The sequel to it, Passing Along a Message, happens to be one of the only fanfics that has ever made me cry.)

Anyways... Happy Birthday, Amatus!

I had a lot of fun messing with colors on this, not gonna lie.
