43 - voice/action for castmates

[When Riku went to visit Sora that morning, he found nothing but an empty room. He didn't need to think twice to figure out what happened. And... heh, for the third time since he arrived in Luceti, too.

It's upsetting, but Riku tends to keep his feelings bottled up a lot of the time. Doesn't help that he's finally snapped out of experimental stupor and still feels... something. But that doesn't matter right now. Today, he's going to address the journal to spread the news. First, he'll address the others from their universe with a quick filter...]

[Filtered to House 39 (BBS house) // 100% Unhackable]

Guys, we should talk. That goes for all of you. Just drop by House 14, if you can. It should be visible now.

[/Filter]

[After they meet and discuss everything, he'll finally address the village at large.]

Looks like Sora's gone home again. I know he had a lot of friends, so I... just thought I'd pass it on.

[ooc: The whole cast may be responding to voice replies! Just a quick heads-up.]

...I see.

[It's really sad to hear that, even if Riku doesn't know the guy personally. It takes a moment for Riku to say anything else because he kinda figures it's a touchy subject. A very touchy one.]

I threw my world into darkness just to get to the outside world. Let my jealousy get the best of me and turned on my best friend, all because some witch said he'd replaced me. I kidnapped princesses, thinking it'd save my other friend, who lost her heart. The darkness almost swallowed me-- I could've really hurt Sora, if he hadn't been so strong.

[He figures she has a right to know all this, especially after that last experiment pushed them so close together. There's a lot he hadn't even said before.]

The thing is, I've been trying to make up for it ever since. I'm not about to make the same mistakes twice.

[She listens to him open up to her. Hearing the words 'darkness' and 'turned on my best friend' gives a sharp ache in her heart. Those are the exact things Sasuke did before... and is still doing now. She winces, remembering them. Remembering how Sakura cried on her shoulders one time.]

[It's a really touchy subject that it took a while before Ino speaks again.]

It's... a good thing you're making up for all the things you did.

My friend... [No, she's not going to cry now.] ... didn't. [And she mentally blamed herself for not doing anything.]

[voice]

[stilldontgotit]

I'm... sorry to hear that. I really am.

[He wishes he knew what to say. How to help. If it weren't for his stubborn resolve, he might've been like that, too.]

[voice]

[There's a long pause, as if Ino wouldn't reply. She keeps on opening her mouth like she's about to say something then decides against it after. Words are really hard to come by when the name Uchiha Sasuke is involved. Bittersweet memories always accompany it.]

It's fine... I'm still hoping he'll change for the better. [Just like how Naruto's hoping. Just like how Sakura's hoping, deep down.] Just like how you're doing now.
