"This must be the replica, then?"
Vexen watched as Xigbar uncovered the blank vessel, studying it intensely. "From what Zexion told me- which wasn't much- I set my expectations low. But it looks like you two were keeping it a secret for good reason." Dropping the sheet, he turned to the scientist. "And you made it using the kid's memories?"
"Right." Vexen quickly covered the vessel and moved it out of the way. "As you said, it's backup if Number Thirteen doesn't work."
"The more we have, the more hearts we can gather. I think it's ready for Xemnas."
Vexen tensed up at the mention of him. "N-no... Not yet, at least," He said as a nervous laugh escaped his lips.
"And the other replicas you're hoarding back there?" Xigbar gestured to the two replicas behind them. "Surely you would want him to recognize your work, hm? Unless you're hiding something?"
Simulated fear crept upon Vexen as he shoved Xigbar out of the room. "It's not... I... You really should leave."
"Welp, I guess I can't force an answer from you," Xigbar replied. "But if I hear about a coup or something down the line, you're my first suspect, alright?"
