[So, in light of Robert's recent post and that last experiment, Riku's decided that now would be the best time to explain a thing or two.
So, yes, he's actually using the journals again. Gasp.]
So, I take it that most of you dealt with the star-shaped fruit from last month. Well, first of all, they're called paopu fruit. Second, the paopu at the beach were not normal by any means.
Paopu don't mess with your heads usually. They definitely don't give you the sudden urge to make friends at the drop of a hat. That's not to say they're just ordinary, but they're definitely not harmful. So, since somebody might be harvesting them, I wouldn't stress it.
[Hmm... He pauses for a moment, pondering something real quick, and then he continues.]
What I will say is that the paopu are a pretty big deal back home. There's this whole legend about them. Basically, if two people share them, their destinies become intertwined. They'll remain a part of each others' lives no matter what. Some people see it as romantic, others just treat it like an unbreakable connection.
And whether it's true or not... well, I'll just put it this way; I've seen a lot stranger things in the worlds I've visited than a legendary fruit. Could all be superstition, but who knows? Maybe it's legit.
[And with that he will finish with one final thought.]
Still, I wonder why the Malnosso have a weird fixation with Valentine's anyway.

Five...four...three...

Two... one...

Are we going to do this the easy way, or the hard way?
[action]
[He shrugs, giving her a broad smirk.]
[action]
Your journal's still open, isn't it?
[action]
Could be. Why's it matter?
[action]
[action]
See, I'd go close it, except I have a hunch you want me to move. It's all part of your plan, isn't it?
[No, he's not being totally serious, but.]
[action]
[action]
[It's said jokingly, but he knows.]
[action]
Always. Watching.]
So. Who is she?
[action]
[...Maybe Kairi's the ninja, hah. Either way, the subject change is cool with him.]
Anyway, her name's Ino.
[action]
Ino? Don't think I've met her. [Going to move...and sit right in front of the door.] What's she like?
[action]
[And nobody was surprised.]
Sometimes, anyway. But she's fun to hang around with, and I think that's what counts.
[What he hasn't mentioned is her, erm. Flirty nature.]
[action]
[She's also going to give Riku the flatest of flat looks.] Riku, do you realize that's the most vague description I've ever heard?
[action]
[He laughs.]
What, do you expect me to explain in flowery detail?
[Tease, tease. Messing with his biffles is just how he rolls.]
[action]
[action]
[He shakes his head and shrugs.]
She is kind of a flirt, though.
[Said oh-so-casually. Like it's really no big deal.]
[action]
[action]
[It just made for epic snark showdowns, really.]
[action]
[action]
He nods.]
Yeah. Especially after my past experiences.
[action]
Yeah...I know. I'm happy for you, you know. I'll be happier once I meet her. [Hint hint.]
[action]
[Kairi, Kairi. He wasn't planning on keeping it a secret forever.]
Bet she'd love to meet you, anyway.
