You know, I was considering checking out Good Spirits today. Not for anything serious, just to see what the fuss is all about. But now?

[He chuckles.]

...I think I'll hold off on that. Looks like things are getting lively enough as it is, and I'm sure the place is gonna get crowded by the end of the day.

[Riku doesn't really drink, but he knows that people do to destress. Simple logic.]

If anyone needs me, I'll be around.

[And indeed he will. First, he can be spotted bouncing from building to building via flowmotion in an attempt to avoid the crowd.

Later, he can be found out by the lake, relaxing on his trusty raft. After that, it's back to the village to hopefully grab some grub at 7th Heaven, provided it's not too crowded thanks to all the new arrivals.]

I hate to break it to you, but even if we weren't ninjas I bet we could. [Nope. Too late. Riku's getting a hug first and please ignore that the icon's Sora.] See? You were so distracted that I could just sneak right up for the attack.

[stilldontgotit]

Someday I'll get you, Kairi. Just wait.

[But, heh, he'll return that hug on the spot. After all, he's missed her; even beneath all his silly teasing, he can't deny that.]

mega~ up for a threadjack with Diane?

[drivingforce]

Yeah sure. I'll believe it when I see it. [She'll just hold that hug for a bit. Hi Riku. It's not that she hasn't seen him recently, but she knows he probably needs this.]

yes :3

[stilldontgotit]

[Yes, good. He could stay like this for a while, truth be told. Gotta savor the moment, 'cause who knows how long it'll last?]

Keeping your expectations low, huh?

I'll let her know she can hop in whenever :3

[drivingforce]

At least that way nobody will be disappointed just in case.

GOOD EVENING

[soracles]

[awwwww.]

[while you two turtle doves or best friends — hey he's not up to speed on Riku's love life, OK — are busy, this partridge in a pear tree over here will be on the approach, hands folded behind his head, a big ol' grin on his face.]

[stilldontgotit]

You know, Sora'd back me up if he were around.

[There's some hidden irony here. Dude doesn't realize that there's a Sora within close proximity, nope.]

[drivingforce]

[But considering she's facing the way of Sora, she spots him first...and suddenly grins and grabs Riku's chin, trying to turn his head.] You might want to think about that a little more.

[soracles]

Yeah! I mean — I know the score's like a couple billion to zero against me, Riku, but you and Kairi... I think she's got you beat, no sweat.
