[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.]

I want to test my limits.

[If he can generate corridors all the way to the beach...]

Nobody's going to take advantage of me.

[Have a little faith, Kairi!]

Yeah, basically.

'Is that it?'

[ HIS SHINIES 8(

And damn you not being limited by being a Heartless and everything. Though Rep can probably tunnel farther, but only by virtue of Heartless being specialized little buggers who otherwise suck at almost everything else. ]

Pretty much. Why, were you expecting something else?

[He crosses his arms. Oh, Reppy.]

Right- my Ganmen. Ah... it's a robot. A big one that I pilot.

I guess that'll work. Better than being caught off-guard, but in this place you can't ever tell.

All right, all right. You better keep that promise.

So that means anybody can go through those corridors, right?

I think I'd be surprised if you said the last ten years have been boring.

Probably. Don't see why they'd make a special case for me.

Might want to sit down, then. This could take a while.

[They could always go locate a bench... Hm.]

No kidding. You think you know this place, and then the Malnosso toss another random shift at you.

[Terra nods, looking around at the benches near the fountain. He gestures to a nearby one, but is quick to comment before taking a seat.]

I'm reserving the right to call a lunch break if this takes too long.

[He's really not expecting anything dramatic. Riku's home world had looked pretty peaceful.]

[voice]

[identity profile] stilldontgotit.livejournal.com 2011-04-19 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. You fight with it?

Last thing I'd want is for you to go hungry.

[He smirks, turning towards the benches.]

C'mon.

[With a smirk of his own, Terra follows closely after Riku.]

So let's start with your age. How old are you now?

[identity profile] stilldontgotit.livejournal.com 2011-04-19 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I would be seventeen if I hadn't been sent back home.

[He shakes his head, taking a seat on the bench.]

But right now... I'd say around sixteen.

Even after being here for two and a half years I can't figure it out. You'd think they'd toss us hints now and again. But nothing. Even things at home were easier to figure out than this.

You never know. At least now it'll be easier and faster to get to the lake to work on the raft. [Yes. The raft again. This is Important, Riku.]

[voice]

[identity profile] dawndigger.livejournal.com 2011-04-20 07:39 am (UTC)(link)
When I have to. It's how people fight on my world, so... if you don't have a strong Ganmen, you're in trouble.

[Or you die. You know. But that just sounds depressing.]

So it's survival of the fittest. Seems pretty common, no matter where you go.

And now that there's a beach, we've got a reason to use it.

[A beat.]

As long as it doesn't rain again.

Well, they wouldn't want to make it too easy.
