There's a slight shrug. "I don't know what he'd do. Even if he and I are the same person, much can change in a few months, never mind nearly a decade. I'd like to say no, but I also know I personally prefer my underlings to understand what's going on. He.. apparently does not."

It's a mystery! Xehanort is not Xemnas, and won't be for a while yet, so why he does the things he does, or what he's even capable of, Xehanort can only guess at.

One hand rises, palm out, as if to try to stall a counterargument, shaking his head quickly. "I don't mean you do nothing. I mean you don't seem the sort to say.. want to be the first person to reach the top of a mountain. Or run the fastest mile. Achievements. You're a bard here - are you looking to be the best bard there is? Write an amazing song? Get a lot of fans?" His tone suggests none of this at all is required - he's just listing examples. "Some people are content to take life as it comes. Others .. achieve things. Occasionally achievements just happen to someone, but not usually."
