Demyx was surprised yet again; he'd been pretty sure that Soubi wasn't the tactile type, yet this was the second time his roommate had touched him without any prompting. But he couldn't help grinning, slightly sheepish and happy or so he told himself at the same time. It was nice - Soubi was nice, as he'd originally suspected - and what was more, Soubi was smiling. Things definitely weren't perfect for either of them, but for the moment they were looking up.
"Well, that's the good thing about still having a heart." Demyx grinned and, deciding that since Soubi had set the precedent it was probably okay, stretched out a hand to tap a finger over the spot he guessed his roommate's heart to be. "You don't have to dwell on what you used to feel. You can look forward to what you're gonna feel in the future. So all we have to do is make sure you have good feelings from now on, right?"
He grimaced at the mention of the institute. He'd been so caught up in the conversation that he'd almost forgotten where they were for a minute. "Yeah, I guess so...but even Nobodies can still make choices. It's one of the few things we've still got. So I'm not gonna let this place do whatever the hell it likes with me, that's for sure." He grinned at Soubi again. "So c'mon, don't be so fatalistic. What good's that ever done anybody? Hell, if I were fatalistic - well, I'd be a Heartless, and we'd never have met. You might have a roommate who...I don't know, snores or something."
