KHSimulacrum: Self-Conscious

The time is nigh once again for Simulacrum! Actually, I didn't have anything worth uploading from the last chapter, so this is actually a couple chapters late. Whoops! So if you missed the last Ivalice chapter (I dunno why you'd be depending on me to tell you when the updates are and not the author herself) then go read it: http://orderxiii.livejournal.com/8990.html#cutid1

Aaaanyway, for those of you who are unfamiliar with it, Kingdom Hearts: Rebirth of the Simulacrum is a post KH2 fic by Benecide about Roxas and his search for his largely forgotten past, and most importantly his best friend. Accompanying him is the sorceress Rinoa Heartilly, herself also on a quest to find that which has been lost, or, if fate deems it, what has happened to it all. Along the way they pick up strange snippets of information about the enigmatic "Simulacrum." Who are these people, and what is their connection to the Light? The mystery deepens with each new shred of a clue, and it becomes more and more likely that they have ties to the two adventurers, as well.

And now a snippet from Chapter 13: The Key to Everything

“Oh, that’s right,” Roxas said, feeling a few more memories slip back into place. “I was Number Thirteen.”

“Oh, geez,” Rinoa sighed melodramatically. “That would’ve been useful to know earlier, guy. That’s a pretty unlucky number…”

“What?! Says who?!” Roxas responded self-consciously. “No, it’s not.” He glared at her, and she stuck out her tongue at him. “Stop making stuff up.” He paused, once again begging his memory.
