[So, funny story. Earlier this morning, Riku had slipped out to grab a bite to eat only, as he waltzed right out the door, he had a sudden and spontaneous departure... only to return about a second later. But before that could so much as sink in? He'd been dragged off quite mysteriously by a couple of droids.

And if that's not weird enough, those by All Passions may notice something falling down from the sky!

...and right into the building...

And right into a pile of clothes! THUD.

For a few seconds, Riku just sorta lies there before his journal lands flat on his face, and a colorful bat soon follows. At least the impromptu landing in the clothes kind of cushioned his fall.

So, yes. Behold the shirtless boy in New Feather pants lying in the middle of the store, folks. He may need a little assistance. Once he's gotten reoriented, however, he'll be storming out of the shop, scooping up his belongings and, with a sigh, addressing the journals some time after that.]

Just when you think this place can't get any weirder, it throws another curve ball. I'd say something about how it's great to be back, but it looks like I haven't even been gone for more than a few hours. And here I thought a few days was bad...

[He pauses, rubbing the back of his neck.]

Has that even happened before? I know time here works differently, but a whole year went by on my end.

[Then again, that year's worth of memories is still a little bit disorienting right now. Blame the quick return, the quick Mallynap, and the three years of Luceti memories, which still ring loud and clear.]

[ooc: Okay, so a few quick things. First, like I mentioned in his OOC intro, his age has been fixed, so he's still in his late teens and not 16. Second, please comment here so I know how much to spoil/not spoil for KH3D.]

And it's not like it's a bad thing, right? It means you hardly even missed anything here, yet you got to spend that much time back home..

.. Ah, unless you didn't want to leave this place, that is. [ since ange knows she wants to stay here - or at least stay with keiichi and her family.. ] Not that that matters either, since you're back.

[stilldontgotit]

Well, on the upside, I technically wasn't gone for that long. A year might've gone by, but at least I don't have to worry about my friends missing me for too long.

[Or Ino, thank goodness.]

[repudiate]

Yeah, I don't think anyone even made a broadcast about you leaving, so.. even if anyone noticed you missing, they might've thought you were out or sometihng.

[stilldontgotit]

Yeah, probably. And I think it's better that way. Otherwise, it'd end up one huge false alarm, and I doubt that's what they need right now.

[repudiate]

Wouldn't want to have everyone running around and tripping over their own feet while looking for you, huh?

[stilldontgotit]

And, more importantly, I wouldn't want them to worry.

[repudiate]

Then you got lucky. Congratulations. Some upper force must like you a lot.

[stilldontgotit]

Heh, thanks, but I don't know if it's that or just one heck of a coincidence.

[repudiate]

Nobody can tell for sure, yeah. But even so, it'd be pretty handy if it really just was someone liking you. Might be handy in the future.

[stilldontgotit]

Let's hope you're onto something. Given how hectic it gets here, a little luck might come in handy later.
