[Things have been pretty stressful recently, between his argument with Xion, Vanitas' surprise attack on Axel, and the impending possibility that he could strike again. Fortunately, with Sora's return to Luceti, Riku's feeling a bit better today, and he'll be spending the evening out and about. Aqua's still kidnapped, which means he'll have to work on his magic on his own, but the battle dome can wait a bit.

For now, he'll chill by the fountain with his journal in hand. Even with everything cooling down, Riku's got a lot on his mind, and one question in particular's been bugging him.]

Seems like we've got a few new threats to worry about. I'm sure that with the Blue Rogues and Brave Vesperia on the job, it'll be pretty safe, but doesn't it bug anyone that we can't do more to stop them? All we can really do is hold them back. Even death's just a temporary solution.

[He sighs. Mostly, he's just venting.]

Anyway, there's something I've been wondering. How many of you come from worlds where light and darkness actually means something? And by that I mean more than just lamps and shadows.

Because that darkness was a part of my. By pushing it away, I rejected a part of myself, all because I was afraid.

[Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads - /shot]

I see. [She's not going to bother asking what sorts of things resulted - she knows too well what could happen through Gerard's example.] And how do you use this darkness in a beneficial way?

[...pretend that 'my' was 'me'. Oh, typos.

In any case... heh. Beneficial.]

Because I don't use it to cause problems for other worlds. Even though I use darkness, I don't let it control me. The path I've chosen is between light and darkness; I use it to fight, but only against real threats.

[Don't worry about it; I make mistakes like that all the time.]

And what sort of threats would those be?

Groups like Organization XIII. It's made up of beings called Nobodies-- people who lost their hearts to darkness, and their goal's to become whole again.

The problem is, they're willing to risk innocent lives in order to get there.

Are any of them here now?

Yeah, but some of them ditched the Organization, and out of the two that are still loyal, the only one to worry about is Saïx.

That's good; assuming their name is indicative of how many people are in the group, I'd hate to have all thirteen present. [she's fought with powerful but oddly small organizations before - it did not end well] How powerful is this Saix person? Do they have any distinguishing features?

He's got blue hair and an X-shaped scar. Most of the Organization wears black coats-- I've got one too, but only to blend in and keep my darkness in check.

Do those cloaks have some kind of magical property, then?

Yeah, they do. They make you impossible to track, and they protect you from the darkness. Plus, in this weather they're pretty convenient.

Sounds useful. Where could I get one of these cloaks?

You'd have to steal one; I doubt they carry spares here.

Too bad. Sounds like it could have came in handy. [Plus, stealth isn't exactly her strong point.]
