limitless_land | 12th Dawn ✯ [Video/Action locked to Vanitas]

[The feed clicks to life, and when it does, it's only his lips that are visible in view--everything else is cast in shadow, a mere silhouette. It doesn't give a thing away about his present location other than just how dark it is in there, like he'd waited for the opportune moment to even begin to say something. Then again, he would probably still be silent had it not been for this confrontation.]

Hey. Hope I didn't miss too much while out of it. Though, a certain fox seems to have grown quiet...

[For most it cuts there, but for those from his universe... there's a heavy sigh as Riku sets a lock; 80% unhackable.]

... I know some of you don't agree with some of the decisions I've made lately. I'm not going to explain why I've done it, because it'll more than likely fall on deaf ears. Like I said to Aqua, I helped Vanitas take care of Ven this far because I believed that it was the right thing to do. After all, I promised two people to help keep him safe... and I've done just that.

[There's a pause as he closes his eyes, the rest of his face cast in shadow under the hood he's wearing. He's kept this in for so long that now it's finally bursting to the surface. In fact, it's probably a miracle he lasted this long without exploding again.]

Now I promised Ven to pass this on: he's getting better; almost able to walk on his own without walking dazedly into objects. It should only be a few more days before he's well enough to come out. Though... he might still be a bit out of it when he does.

If I'm to be painted the villain again for standing by someone who's helped me, then so be it.

[Then the feed fades out, before being reset to Sora and Kairi only.]

I'm sorry I've been gone for so long... Just a few more days, and I'll be back. I promise.

[The feed ends entirely.]

[Riku sighs, lowering the hood and pinching his nose in irritation. The dizzy spells were annoying as hell and that was the main reason he'd had the hood up while broadcasting. Now... what to do.]

Wonder how long the hatred and prejudice will last.

True, but we'll see what happens after my confrontation. I'm not sure what exactly he saw, but once I find out I'll figure out what the best course of action would be. For now, I think they're better off being left out of this.

[The Composer quirks an eyebrow.]

Sounds like quite the headache. We'll offer what we can as far as having a place to lay low for a while goes. Any reason in particular it's you and this person you owed?

Do what you think is right; that's all I have the right to say.

[Oh yes, enjoy his headache while he's recovering from a dizzy spell. Damn Floods...]

Old prejudices die hard. He's the entity of pure darkness that once faded a while ago. Due to his relations to Ventus, they have to stay together while they heal. One of Ventus' friends fails to realize it no matter how many times it's been attempted to beat it into her head.

I dragged myself into it by helping them both get to safety.

They're the pure light and darkness around here, correct? Or, at least one of the pure lights in Vatheon. [Derp, can't forget about Kairi.] I don't quite understand their need to be together, but as far as dealing with Ventus' friend is concerned...you might be better off not talking to her until she's cooled down. It doesn't matter who's right or wrong when one person is being more emotional than the other.

Good luck with that, Riku.

Yes, one of the pure lights. [You better not; that's his girlfriend right there, bro. Bl] Light can't exist without the darkness in our World; it's as simple as that.

[He almost laughs. Almost, because he's not quite going insane just yet from being held here.] So I've noticed. I just hope that she doesn't try anything reckless to get them both killed again.

Thanks, though from the sound of it... we both need that luck.

Where there's light, there's darkness, and everything in between. I think that's true for most worlds. [Shhh, he doesn't know that.

Hey, Joshua's got his hands full with Aziraphale and the rest of the family. He doesn't need Riku falling apart on him, too, just yet.] One can hope. I doubt you and Ventus will let her, though.

...It's appreciated. [Still not used to getting sentiments like that, even though he lives with Aziraphale of all people.]

Hm. More or less. [He will eventually, but right now... other subjects are taking precedence.

He won't, because if he does there's a Flood inside him to kick him in the spleen and it's progenitor to smack some sense back into him the hard way if necessary.] Yeah... Just hope it never boils down to it.

Heh. You're welcome, Josh. [We will make you used to them, older bro. Bl
