[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.]

Nothing against you.

[Probably because it was away from the prejudices, man. When Demyx explains, however... he sighs quietly to himself, lightly pinching his nose.]

... At least you were better than me.

[ninthserenade.livejournal.com]

Yeah?

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

[A slight wince at the memory, because even after all this time... it's still fresh.]

I told him once that the dark would destroy him, and do you know what he said? "The darkness may destroy my body, but it can't touch my heart." I was twisted by malice, so my response was: "Really. Well, we'll just see about that."

[He shakes his head, disappointed in himself.] Learned that lesson the hard way.

[ninthserenade.livejournal.com]

Harsh, dude. I mean really harsh.

_{[He'd toss another gaudy shirt at his face, but instead he just stands up and offers a small hair tussle.]}

But you guys made up in the end, right? Right!

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

I'll admit to being an idiot back then...

[asjkal what the heck- and darn automatic smirks at those.]

...Sort of. If you count closing the Door to Darkness together. Otherwise... I haven't been able to.

[ninthserenade.livejournal.com]

Hmm... Now I dunno if I should tell you.

_{[Is that a teasing smirk? Oh yeah.]}

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

[He's frowning. Better tell him, or he'll see if a Nobody can be ticklish.]

Tell me what?

[ninthserenade.livejournal.com]

Nothing~

_{[Do you really want to burst the personal space bubble, Riku? He's ticklish everywhere from the waist down. And maybe the nape of his neck, but don't tell anyone.]}

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

You sure about that?

[Possibly. And for a rare glimpse of who he once was, he places his fists on his hips, leaning forward.]

Looks like you're hiding something, to me.

[ninthserenade.livejournal.com]

How can you be so sure?

_{[Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Is he taking a step back?]}

I could be hiding something but there's no way to prove it.

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

I can't.

[He smirks a bit; hey, don't look at him. He's pretty much blind! Kidding, though... one more step forward.]

C'mon, Demyx. What is it?

[ninthserenade.livejournal.com]

_{[Just going to extend his arm to place a finger above Riku's heart. Easy, Silver! He takes a moment to consider his options. On one hand, he could tell him and see what happens. On the other hand, he could not tell him and see what happens. Ooh, easy choice considering he's still a Keyblade wielder.]}

Well... Don't hit me for not saying it sooner, but you and Sora were here before.

_{[A pause.]}

At the same time.

[limitless-land.livejournal.com]

[Okay, he'll stop. And hey, why that nickname? You're the one who picked up the silver pants! And...proto-Keyblade wielder at best. Sigh; lacking in the strength of heart for Way to the Dawn--

Blink. Blink. What.]

...Okay.
