Tenth ★ [Video]

[It was one of the very few times Riku had gotten any sleep.

It was also the day that zombie fish decided to rise on up from the ground like some sort of twist to song lyrics.

So there is a very disgruntled looking Riku, a couple scrapes crossing his face here and there.]


I'd invite everyone over for an old-fashioned fish fry, but I'm afraid even an islander can't salvage this bunch of rancid meat.

[...Was he kidding? It's hard to tell with that poker face before the feed cuts. H-hopefully that wasn't a flash of gold the viewer saw behind a sliced bit of blindfold.]

[Riku can probably be found in various parts of the city, but whether he appears to be himself or another has yet to be seen.]

[ooc: Due to this event, the possibility that he may have to use another's power is very real. As such, replies may very well come from either here, or [livejournal.com profile] twilitdisguise ]

And you managed to survive that, so these shouldn't be much of a problem for someone like you.

It's not surviving I'm that worried about.

I don't like the sound of that.

Didn't expect you to-- [Any other words, however, are cut short with the clattering of the SFC to the ground and scream akin to pain and pure rage; something that he has never allowed to escape before. When the screen flickers to again, it shows him on his knees, without a blindfold and positively livid at the remains of one of the creatures before him.]

Really should not have done that...

[Damn it... He didn't want to use any of this power except to save those who he cares for most-]

[He doesn't have time to think - that scream's a little too familiar a sound for him to dwell on it for very long. He steps through a Dark Corridor that's actually a few feet farther off from Riku than he normally manages. He smells around, disoriented, before eventually coming around to the area.]

What...

[All he'll see is the area littered with corpses of the creatures that had overrun the city from the world below, a solitary figure in black at the center. His back is turned and he's completely silent, as if listening to the sounds around him. It's a few seconds before he moves, dismissing the blade in hand with a tsk.]

[He turns, appearance phasing. Blink, and you may just miss the Heartless yellow and spiked hair brushed back from a tan face that just does not belong before it flickers back to long bangs and sea-green eyes.]

[A blindfold is at Caden's feet.]

[As he's watching and listening, he reaches down - slowly - to pick up the blindfold. As he rises, the face returns to the all-too-familiar one.

He clenches the blindfold tightly, as if Riku's experience just now was the object's fault. Then he just steps forward and uses both hands to press the blindfold right over top of the messy bangs, a grimace on his face.]

[Action]

[identity profile] limitless-land.livejournal.com 2011-09-26 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[But is it really the blindfold's fault?

He blinks when it's held over his eyes, then places his hands over the cloth behind his younger look-a-like's to hold it steady. It's almost immediate, how the darkness stops seeping out as easily. He'll fix it later, but for now only one word comes out—shakily at best.]


... Thanks.

[Rep pulled his hands away.] It's not like I enjoyed seeing his face again, either.

[He stepped back.] So that's why. [A simple statement, loaded with meaning.]

[Riku nods, bending down slightly to pull the cloth away and slip it under his bangs. He can understand why someone with his memories would hate it, even if it couldn't be as horrid as experiencing it firsthand.] Yeah.

[Tying it tightly, so he doesn't lose it again so easily.] Looks like the control hasn't slipped since before I came back, but...

[identity profile] boundbynaught.livejournal.com 2011-09-27 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
It's happened before. [Borderline accusation and sympathy - only with these two.]

Is there a way to get... more control?

[Action]

[Only withe these two.] ...Once or twice. [Lies and slander. A pause, then—]

I'm still talking to you, aren't I—no creepy double voice. [In Sora-terms: duh.]

... [Okaaaaaaay. Worrisome.]

It's me. [Wait for it.] Bro.

[He chuckles a bit, and it almost looks like he's going to pass him by as he walks... yet he stops, placing a hand on Caden's shoulder.]

Fair enough, bro. Now... Want to see if we can find another swarm?

[Action]

[He grips his opposite hand tightly - his keyblade appears, as does a smirk on his face.]

You had to ask? [He goes into a familiar 'ready' stance.]

[Action]

[A faint chuckle in response to that smirk.]

Maybe. [His appears back in his hand, and he nods.] Let's go.
