009 ♞ Text + Action

If you could send one message to someone that wasn't here. What would it be?

Action;;

[Even a week after the Darkness attacks, there's been a lot on Riku's mind. The nightmares keep coming and the memories from his time as Taken are completely restored, which isn't... a good thing in his mind.

He's even stopped training for a while, and now can be found sitting on the bleachers of the sports fields, one leg bent so that he could rest his chin on his knee, looking pensive. Having not retrieved his Keyblade from Sora, he doesn't have much other than training swords to practice with, but he's not exactly sure he wants his Keyblade back just yet.

Or at all, really.]

I'm sorry.

Please take care of yourself.

[Goddamnit. Even someone else says it and it's like a punch to the gut.]

I've got a feeling that this would be the most common answer.

Is is someone you left behind?

Yea, well it's a pretty common thing.

[Fucking up, that is. At least for him.]

Yes. She's very, very important to me.

[Euri is wandering by, a bag containing gym clothes slung over one shoulder. However, when she sees Riku she'll make a beeline towards the bleachers. As the most exposure to modern sports she's had was the olympics she doesn't quite get what the fields were for, so she glances about curiously before focusing on him.]

Hey!

[He did notice her walking by, but for once, he'd didn't quite feel like calling her out. He's up here to try and think clearly and make sense of things, and also relax himself and de-stress. He shouldn't bother someone else while he does.

But yet, when she comes up, Riku can't just tell her to go away. Instead, he smiles, a very strained one, but it's genuine enough.]

Hey. What are you doing here?

[This is always the part that gets him, especially after seeing Loki's 'helpful' pamphlets.]

Hopefully, you'll get to see her again.

True enough.

[He's right there with you.]

Why don't you try again? Something maybe a little less commonplace?

[Trying to not have this conversation go into depressing territory? You bet.]

I hope so, too. I'm sure I will, one day. Thank you.

[Easier said than done. He accepts the challenge, though. It just takes him a moment to think of something else...]

I still have nightmares about your father arresting us.

[It's a joke. Something he'd be saying to his best friend, if she were here...It's a bittersweet thought, as most concerning her are; a nauseous mixture of fondness and overwhelming longing...

[Still, he'd rather feel that than the guilt associated with Rose at the moment...]

I'm sorry I didn't tell you why I had to run away.

I'm sorry you'll never know what happened to me.

I'm sorry I didn't have the strength to say goodbye.

I miss you.

[She'll carefully make her way up the bleachers so neither of them have to raise their voices.]

Training at the arena with Crow! What about you?

Please stay safe. We miss you so much.

You're missing one of your friends?

I guess I'd probably say. I'm sure we'll see each other again soon.

You have to end this. Don't waste the opportunity I gave you.

Thank you.

[short, simple, and very vague.]

Wait for me. I'll be there.

I know that I made a lot of mistakes but I promise that I'm going to make you proud!

Just keep beleiving you will.

[A friend? Claudia was something of that, but it was probably the circumstances that made things a bit different. She was a mentor to him, more than jsut a normal friend.]

Something like that. I like that one. Would it be like a promise?

[Ah, he wonders why that choice.]

Why thank you?

[Finally, something of a positive message.]

Got an idol back home?

Mhmm, I do but that message wasn't for her!

It was for my dad! He is really protective of me but I want to let him know that I'm doing fine here! He doesn't need to worry about me!
