Notes: I wanted to write someone I don't see around here often, that's all.

She's not strong.
Powerful, yes.
She has the power to make a young boy turn against his beliefs, turn an oafish steamboat captain into a servant of the dark, but she's not strong.
Strength is being able to transcend your own shortcomings. Strength is the knowledge to change. Strength is a quality she doesn't possess, and she's sure it shows, to some people.
And he sees.
He knows what she is. He can see through the facade of the sorceress to the fallen fairy beneath, and she would cower before him.
Scornful orange eyes hide behind a facade of aquamarine, and disdainful words decades old fall from a fifteen-year-old mouth. When he defeats her and she becomes a slave of the darkness, rearing her head in front of the Keyblade Bearer, she can see what she's become.
Puppets on strings have no strength, either.
She falls, and maybe when she's reborn, she will know true strength.
