[What am I supposed to do now?

He doesn't know when his perpetual black faded into sleep, nor when he fell back on his bed--or when he got soaked for that matter. What he did know was that when he awakened... he was soaked, and could smell saltwater. Not to mention he was on the ground somewhere.] What...?

[Riku opens his eyes beneath the blindfold, regretting it a moment when the salt water began to make them sting. What he can subtly make out behind the cloth was that he was in a city of sorts, a few Hearts and shadow figures-meaning whole individuals-passing by... and was that a coral split into two? He shook his head, getting to his feet. Maybe it was time to get some answers, as well as dry off.

His hand immediately finds the SFC and after studying it along with drying off/out his blindfold and himself to the best of his ability if the towel over his head is anything to go by... he decides to make his presence known. The feed clicks.]

...Vatheon, huh. I don't suppose anyone would have any ideas as to why we are in the first place?

[Of course, the local who gave him a towel and a hair dryer for his blindfold had said nothing about why he was here. Rather, they changed the subject rather quickly. It irritated him, yes, but maybe someone else had the answers he desired.

Anyone wandering the plaza could quite well find him donning the black coat synonymous with the Organization and eyes hidden by a black blindfold to match, leaning against the wall of one of the many stores, examining the SFC and its functions as he gained his bearings.]

You tensed up for a moment, there.

Er... Rough month?

[ There's the Riku he knows. With that, he fixes his scarf. ]

If you need anything, somewhere to hide out, breakfast, whatever... I'm at Ordo 6.

Ah... [A faint smirk; he knows that feeling; almost an entire year of it.]

[Hey, it's still him at heart! ... +1 foreboding shadow.]

Mm. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks, Luka.

[ A low chuckle. ]

And why wouldn't I? Your escapades were rather timely the last time around.

You can say we were rather closely involved.

Anyone explain this place to you yet, dude?

_{[A beat.]}

But we should probably get you another change of clothes or something.

[His eyes narrow into dangerous slits; he's already wary thanks to the scent, but adding onto what he was warned about along with what he's hearing? The alarm bells couldn't be more clear.]

So I've noticed.

[Heard; whatever. The point is he's no longer leaning against the wall and fiddling with the SFC. Instead, he's taking a few steps to the left, getting into a position he cannot be so easily pinned. But still, the boy doesn't relent.]

That still leaves the mention of your name.

I spoke with a local who filled me in with the basics. Someone else already mentioned the whole different times bit, though.

[A faint frown, though. You're not getting him to take off the blindfold; already scared said local when he was drying it out.]

...Fair enough.

Just the basics. Figures... You've got a lot to re-learn, Riku.

_{[He starts heading off in the direction of a shop--His favorite one that has really bad hawaiian shirts in it on top of that, glancing over his shoulder.]}

I'd dry you off myself but I'm not really feeling it right now if it's alright with you.

'Bout time you showed back up; I was starting to think I'd killed the trend.

Heh. Figures.

[No ugly as hell Hawaiian shirts for him, thanks, Atlantica boy. But... at least he's following.]

It's fine. [Because yeah... he kind of missed the scent of saltwater; it reminds him of home.]

[...This is going to be annoying as hell that he doesn't remember a blasted thing, isn't it. And since the last thing he remembers about this one is a chakram to the spine--]

Ever hear of being fashionably late?

[It's all good, Riku; Axel likes to spy on other conversations. He knows you apparently got into the brain bleach. But we can play dumb for a bit and see what happens~

Plucking at the front of his coat, he chuckles a bit.]

The coats are rather fashionable, aren't they?

Edited 2011-03-28 12:10 (UTC)

I'll explain it to you later. Promise.

_{[At least he can make them look like good shirts, Island boy. He'll even hold open the door.]}

Gotcha. I should probably stop wearing these coats so often. I'm... Well, I'm not working anymore, so there's not really much of a point except for easier transportation and stuff.

[Brain bleach, taken from his past... either answer suffices. Cue. Eye roll.]

It beats a few things. [-and apparently after the conversation with Demyx his brain won't break any more. Go figure, huh.]

Edited 2011-03-28 15:52 (UTC)

I'll hold you to it.

[Why, thank you. Not that he isn't still a bit wary.... comes with so many of your pals trying to kill him. He nods faintly at that, though; an amused smirk crossing his lips.]

Guess I still have a reason to wear this, then. [After all... he has a heart. It protects him from the darkness he uses.]

Seems you've already gotten a spiel or two from the rest of the gang, so I won't tell you again what you've already been made away you used to know. Guess I'll say welcome back, though.

Also. Don't spill too many beans on Xion. I dunno where she'd go if she tried to run, but I have a feeling based on what you've said to a few other people that she won't take the news too well. One bean at a time, okay?

Don't wear it every single day, dude. There isn't really a Heartless threat here, so it's fine. Heck, casual wear is way more comfortable anyways.

_{[C'mon, man! Lousy fighter, remember? And it's not like he's Xaldin or Saix.]}

Changing rooms are over in the back, uhh... Oh, yeah! It's all free, so don't worry about munny.

[There's just a faint nod.]

My lips are sealed; she'll... find out on her own. [It's best she doesn't know... still thinks of me as an enemy. He still pretty much was, thanks to what he would have to do in the future outside this bubble.]

Besides... I'd rather get settled here. [-again.]

I don't; only when I want to disappear.

[It wasn't the Heartless he had been running away from... and okay, guard is dropped a little bit, but mainly for this one reason- Pulling up his blindfold juuust a tad. Was that a joke?]

...Seriously?

Serious as a heart attack.

_{[Is this the face of a Nobody that would lie to you? He's already flipping through a couple longsleeves.]}

Just trust me on this one. The only thing that costs any 'munny' is the stuff over in that Nostalgia place and I guess the Carnival now. Not like I'm going back there any time soon... I come here a lot on top of that. Most of my pants that I've got back at my place came from here.

[Eyebrow raised, man. That was horrible, and his face said it all as he looked through the selection.]

...Noted. And I can see why you like this place. [So much tropical... Ugh, shut up, homesickness.]

_{[Sorry, he needs a heart to feel bad about it. Ha ha... Hearts.]}

Can't blame a guy for going a little crazy with colorful clothing after being stuck in the same ol' outfit for years on end. _{[Fwip, snagging a pair of obnoxiously shiny silver jeans off the rack to check the size. Awesome, it'll fit and make him stick out like a sore thumb!]}

Housing is free, too.
