"All promises are forever promises, Xion," Axel said firmly. "I don't make a promise I don't intend to keep."
And he meant that with every fiber of his being. As tenuous as this promise might have been, Axel had always placed a lot of weight on keeping every promise he'd ever made, and this one would be no exception. Promises were bonds, and breaking the former could easily break the latter, he knew. Promises, like the friends they were made to, were paramount, and he would never have knowingly jeopardized either.
Taking a deep breath and holding it a moment, Axel found himself wondering why he'd been so worried about this. It was news he wished he hadn't had to tell them, but of course he knew this would never break them apart. He sighed softly and then glanced down at the rapidly melting puddle of blue ice cream nearby.
"... Oh. Maybe I should have saved the ice cream for after the news, huh," he said with a helpless shrug. "Live and learn, I guess. Whaddaya guys say we go get some replacements?"
