[Today, those wandering through the village might spot this young man wandering around. Not aimlessly, mind you; he recognizes just about everything. How could he not after spending 'years' in Luceti? However, he's taking note of his surroundings. Snow, passersby who look remarkably younger than they usually do.

Oh yeah. Riku's already catching on to what's happening around him. When he opens up his journal and skims through the entries, his suspicions are confirmed, and he opens up to a blank page and starts to speak.

His voice should sound pretty familiar. A bit older, but distinctly Riku's.]

Alright. Let me guess, this is just another experiment. There are a lot of things I could ask right now, but I'll keep things simple.

Just what year is it right now?

[With that taken care of, he closes the journal and continues his search. His old house has to be somewhere close by; it's just a matter of remembering where it was. But for those who spot him, they might notice the ring on his finger. Yup, he's a married man.]

[ooc: I was enabled! Like with Xion, if you guys could comment here, that'd be snazzy. Comments will be made with dawnsend.]

Just Roxas? [ with a hint of a smile. ] But I know. I'm going to have to confront him about it eventually.

[ her smile warms at that, and she leans up to kiss him, soft but quick, before stepping back and taking his hand. ]

I know. But we'll be okay. [ gives his hand a squeeze. ] ... we're in house 14, by the way. Remember that place? It feels like so long ago... but it's really familiar at the same time.

Yeah, I remember.

[Well, he'll squeeze her hand back.]

I guess we should head over there. Better to get this over with than to worry them.

[ her expression falls slightly, and she chews her lip. ]

... Riku ... I want to tell Roxas on my own. If that's okay. I just... he won't take it well, and it might be worse if you're there. I'm really sorry, but... [ frets. she doesn't want to leave Riku out, but at the same time... ]

[Hm. He'd rather be there too, but... sigh. He nods.]

You've got a point. He's less likely to freak out if you tell him.

[Does he look happy? Nope, but he won't put up a fight.]

The only thing I'm worried about is what he'll do once he does find out. If people don't like the future, they might try and change things.

[Though, as it stands, their 'normal' selves aren't even around.]
