[There's something seriously ironic when your friends get kidnapped again and again and you yourself have not... in almost two years.

So, today, as Riku flips through the journal, he takes a moment to speak.]


You know, I've been here for almost two years, and I've never been kidnapped. It's happened to my friends a few times, probably most of the village too... But it's pretty weird.

Anyone else in the same boat? And if not, how long did it take them to get you?

[Hmm... With that taken care of, he tosses up a quick filter.]

Hey. You doing okay?

[A little later, he leaves the house, heading out to the Battle Dome. Once there, he sets up the simulation in a strange area full of floating stones and rushing waterfalls. Several different Heartless appear in large numbers.

At first the fight isn't too hard; he's dealt with Heartless before, after all. However, as the fight progresses and the Heartless increase in number, it becomes a bit harder to dodge all of them. One of the Wyverns swoops down from above with its talons at the ready, and Riku has little time to react.

So, without even thinking, he steps back, as darkness envelopes his body. He reappears right behind the Wyvern and has little time to consider what just happened. Instead, he blasts a thundaga spell to finish the beast.

A few minutes pass, and he leaves the battle dome. For the next few hours, passers by can expect to see him opening up dark corridors to test the waters. It's true that he's held back a little with his darkness, but the fact that the portals work again is enough to merit some experimentation. He'll be all over the place within the village and forest. ]

[ooc: Mods okayed the use of dark corridors a while ago, but I never got around to an IC discovery of them on Riku's behalf, so here we go.]

That's him.

[Even if they don't look alike right now.

Either way, Riku doesn't look particularly happy; Vanitas is no joke, after all.]


If he tries anything, we'll figure something out. The Malnosso probably took something from him, so it might be easier this time.

I know. I'm counting on it. [And Roxas is already heading that way. Coming 'Ku?]

'What are you doing?'

That's true... I really wish they would give us a real answer once in a while. We kind of deserve it, don't we...?

[sharply] Then isn't asking this insulting them, Riku-kun?

Sure. It shouldn't take long.

I'll meet you there.

[It's a nice walk from the house, and it's a nice spring day, so there's definitely a relaxing note to all of this.]

Well, for starters. Do you really think it's a coincidence that your friends get kidnapped, and you don't?

[voice]

[identity profile] stilldontgotit.livejournal.com 2011-04-13 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
Sometimes it's best to ignore them, even if it's not always easy.

[voice]

[identity profile] stilldontgotit.livejournal.com 2011-04-13 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
I sure think so. We have to put up with all their experiments and wars, after all.

[voice]

[identity profile] stilldontgotit.livejournal.com 2011-04-13 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'm just trying to see if there's any pattern with kidnappings. Don't see how that's insulting.

[It shouldn't take long for Riku get there, thanks to his recent discovery of dark corridors in Luceti. So, he'll just be chilling until Terra gets there.]

It probably is. Or maybe the Malnosso just overlooked me somehow.

[Gonna have to try harder, Vantias.]

Testing something.

Turns out dark corridors work. I want to test their limits.

[Oh, naturally. Once Roxas takes off, he'll follow close behind.]

I doubt it. People like him just can't take a hint.

Actually, that's how I think too.

If we're lucky, maybe they'll take away some of that bastard's speed. [Sanji did not enjoy that fight for that reason alone]

Kinda hard to kick a guy who pops up everywhere.

[ Repliku can't help but bristle a bit. He is still Not OK with you having darkness powers. He liked back when those were only his kthx. Still, with an agitated twitch of his wings he goes back to his journal. ]

They aren't that flaky.

We both know the real answer: you just aren't that interesting to them.

[identity profile] dawndigger.livejournal.com 2011-04-13 05:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm.

[SIGH. Life in Luceti can be so unfair. ...Oh right, he doesn't even know this guy's name.]

I'm Simon, by the way.
