i think its tied to you

[ she doesn't know if he's back to riku yet? ]

we showed up in a place full of darkness
a voice talked to us of the light in our heart and how the longer we stayed in darkness the harder itd be to see the light
it said a lot of mushy shit about friends and friendship
we had to fight a bunch of monsters
there was a rat bastard

[closes my eyes]

You were in the place where your heart wakes up.

Wait

You saw the king??

[personal profile] overshaded 2021-07-05 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
your what
yeah
he called himself a king at least

Your heart.

King Mickey. Of course he would be there to help you. Somehow he always comes at the right time.

You can trust him. He's helped me more times than I can count.

how does your heart wake up

[ riku explain

but since he can answer all of this, kainé assumes he's riku now. ]


i dont know if id call it the right time
the right time could have been at least a platform before he got there
you really respect him huh

In a dream world. When you have to look inside yourself. Sora use to talk about having weird dreams all the time when we were kids.

I do. When my heart was full of doubt, he was there to remind me I wasn't alone.

you know ive heard and been through a lot of strange shit but thats one of the weirder things ive heard
so he helped you a lot
i still want to throw something at him the next time i see him

He'd never do it on purpose. Be nice to him.

[Does she at all see why he was so gung-ho about the bear now?]

Traveling through places like that, and through the darkness is harder than you think. If you see him again, you should thank him.

where are you right now?

can you meet me outside it for a second?

[personal profile] darksubverted 2021-07-06 12:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[that emote again but faster]

Uh
Okay. I'll be there.


[He is very stupid like Nier, so he will be there.]

[ this is why nier adopted him, and this is why when kainé shows up, she’s going to walk up to him with a normal pace and gait.

and then swing her fist fast to slug him in the arm. ]

[OH LORD SHE COMING

He is absolutely oblivious because of course he is. Look, his girl doesn't ever cock her arm back and sock them. (Even though she SHOULD because they are STUPID.)]


Ah--!

[He doesn't fall over, but he has to step back with a foot to catch himself. His other hand goes up to hold the spot she punches. He's not even angry, just extremely bewildered.]

Ow! What was that for?
overshaded: (18)

[personal profile] overshaded 2021-07-07 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
[ This should be one of the things Kairi's taught before she learns how to wield a keyblade: how to throw a proper punch. If Kainé ever meets her, it's going to happen. ]

Don't tell me to thank someone like that.
darksubverted: (Riku (109))

[personal profile] darksubverted 2021-07-07 12:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rubbing his arm!]

He helped you, didn't he? He did what he could.

Why is so hard for you to say thanks?
overshaded: (48)

[personal profile] overshaded 2021-07-08 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Because he's the type to come in to help at the very last fucking moment and then he fucks off again to do whatever business and shoos everyone away instead of helping the entire time.

[ That's the vibe she got anyway.

But also she's just ANGRY because she came into this game with her memory fucked up because NIER is STUPID and then a Kingdom Hearts CYOA all about MEMORIES came along and fucked up her memories EVEN MORE and she wants to take it out on Mickey Mouse. ]

[KAINÉ ISN'T WRONG IS THE BAD PART ABOUT THIS. Riku just makes a bit of a face. He can't--

He can't argue, and yet, he stans Mickey Mouse so much?!]


I know it's frustrating, but... don't say that. He helps when he can, and where he can. It's the best he can do. He has a lot to deal with just like the rest of us.

[ She frowns and doesn't say anything more about Mickey because it will just be more rudeness. She will not-so-subtly switch gears.

He is lucky she likes him enough to do this. ]


Is that kind of place something you have to go through often?

[ the station of awakening. ]
darksubverted: (Riku (120))

[personal profile] darksubverted 2021-07-09 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
[His lips pull into a thin line. He isn't angry, or sad, or anything, but he isn't grinning ear to ear obviously.]

Not very often. Well, not me. Maybe Sora. He always talked about having weird dreams all the time.

[personal profile] overshaded 2021-07-09 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[ Hope Riku regrets allowing Nier to adopt him because now he has to put up with Kainé's bullshit now, too.

Hm... ]


You're close to Sora, yeah?

[CLOSES EYES...... Fucking Nier.]

Mm. We've been friends since we were kids. [He sort of looks away. The fondness there is sitting in a cup of nostalgia. The love isn't... hot and intense, like the passionate honeymoon phase of lovers. No.

It's deep. Soft and deep, the love that has become second-nature. The love you don't ever have to think about because it's always there sitting on the top of your heart.]
He's my best friend.

[ this family is either going to be great or terrible.

Cute... His fondness is very sweet. There are a lot of things she could say in response to this, but that would require terrible sincerity from her. ]


He seems like the type to get up in arms about this place.
darksubverted: (pic#14989753)

[personal profile] darksubverted 2021-07-09 12:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Please don't perceive his fondness. Embarrassing.]

He is. He would be. He's always stupid enough to sacrifice himself to save other people.
overshaded: (77)

[personal profile] overshaded 2021-07-10 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ No, it's cute. Whether she thinks it's cute or not.... a mystery.

But wow, that sounds faintly familiar to her. ]


I know the kind of stupid you mean.
