[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.]

[action]
It's a dark corridor.
[action]
Dark corridor... [For all his previous jumpiness, now that the element of surprise has been stripped away, this sounds like a familiar concept]
Are you the only one who can make it?
[action]
Nah. Most Nobodies can, and so can my replica.
[Come to think of it...]
Wouldn't surprise me if Vanitas can too.
[action]
[The idea of someone like Vanitas having that type of power... not exactly relieving]
Tch. Wonderful.
[action]
[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.

[action]
Kinda hard to kick a guy who pops up everywhere.
[action]
It's the fact that he teleports all the time.
[Just... ugh. Even he's not that cheap.]
