Axel (Kingdom Hearts)

"Got it memorized?"

- Axel's most common quote

"Do you know why the sun looks red as it sinks below the horizon? It's because among the countless colours comprising light, red travels the greatest distance."

- Axel

Befriending Roxas
Axel is seen to have gained a friendship with Xion and Roxas. They do many things together, most notably, eating popsicles on top of the Clock Tower. At the end of the game, both Roxas and Axel lose contact with Xion - and Roxas is now with Sora.
