You guys have it all wrong. People aren't born because of men and women doing...that. They're born when someone sticks a Keyblade into their heart to free it and makes a couple of new people without hearts as a result. They don't even need diapers.

[pause]

At least, that's how I was born.

[binarysky]

What's my resolution got to do with how I was born?

[a_parting_word]

That's not how you were born.

[binarysky]

Yes it was.

[a_parting_word]

Do you look like a key?

[binarysky]

Oh, come on.

[a_parting_word]

Then you can't have been sired by one, now can you?

[binarysky]

I don't have parents. I never did.

[Unless Sora counts.]

[a_parting_word]

Part of being born means you weren't there to tell.

[binarysky]

I wasn't. But Sora was.

[a_parting_word]

I'm afraid your brother must have misunderstood the goings on, then. That can happen, if they're young.

[binarysky]

He isn't my brother.

[a_parting_word]

Cousin. Friend. Whatever he is.

[binarysky]

He's me. Sort of.

[a_parting_word]

...is this some sort of friendship game?

[binarysky]

No. He's the one who turned the Keyblade on himself. He's the one who made me.

[a_parting_word]

I can't even begin to correct this problem.

[binarysky]

It's not a problem! We're both fine the way we are now.

[a_parting_word]

Except for the part where a man can't give birth to you.

[binarysky]

He didn't. He lost his heart and I was left over.

[a_parting_word]

He lost his heart... and you were left over...

[a_parting_word]

...from his other organs?

[a_parting_word]

I suppose if I tilt my head, you do look a bit like a kidney.

[binarysky]

Um...no. Actually, he kind of disappeared entirely for a little while, and I showed up somewhere else. But I'm still his Nobody.

[a_parting_word]

He gave you life... then abandoned you to fend for yourself in the wildhood?

[binarysky]

[Getting uncomfortable now] It wasn't his fault. He didn't know what happened.
