[Sure enough, someone familiar shows up to the daycare. Wow! He's in one of those stupid outfits I had to put on the mingle, go wild. Around his neck is a lanyard with a visitor's pass card attached to the end.
He has a piece of wax paper folded around something.]
[His gaze flicks down to the wax paper, and then he gives "Luke" a grin. The vibes here are... legitimately friendly and affectionate, a thread of care that he'd probably deny.]
[There's a certain longing there. Sometimes you have been deprived of food more than once in your life.]
I fuckin' hope so. Memory shit like that- it ain't my area, but it's sketchy stuff. [A slight bit of relief, hope that Riku stays as himself.] Nice t' finally meet ya as yourself. Remember everythin' that's happened so far?
[Bradley, quietly trying to piece these bits together. Okay, so the darkness... if the spirits of the land were trying to devour you? Is that it?] What happens if your heart can't? [Are these things... related?]
I can't speak for everybody, but I'm damn sure we ain't happy about this mess. I'll do what I can here. Just let me know what you're learnin', okay?

week 4, monday
He has a piece of wax paper folded around something.]
Bradley.
no subject
Hey, kiddo. Good t' see ya in person.
What ya got there?
no subject
He offers out the wax paper, and Bradley gets to feel his mild fluster. Inside is a stick of green, pink, and white odango.]
Hey.
no subject
He opens up the wax paper and he... does not know what this is? Mild curiosity.]
Bring a snack? Know food tastes better when its shared, right?
no subject
[He's
still a little flustered about it.]
no subject
Thanks. It's nice t' eat something other than daycare snacks for once.
no subject
[Damn. He should have brought more.]
no subject
[There are vegetables, but he does not consider them food.]
You okay? How're the other Falls?
no subject
[Wow. There is just something so fucking sad about that second sentence.]
I'm... alright. Better now that I'm... me. Riku. The others are managing. Caleb moved to Winter.
no subject
Back to who you really are? [Concern, worry.] Is whatever had the hold over ya... is that gone?
no subject
Okay. I'll remember for next time. What do you want?
[He nods. There's some reassurance brushing back against the worry.]
Back to me, yeah. I don't know. So far, it's been a day, and that's longer than I've had before. I'm hoping it's for good.

no subject
[Glad they went to Golly-B's that one time.]
Yeah. A little glad, so I wouldn't be confused.
no subject
Do you know how long you've been here? Or what happened t' you guys?
no subject
And then I immediately became Luke.
no subject
[What does that mean... Turn a light on. Damn.
He really doesn't like the sound of that.]
Immediately... so whatever got ya was somethin' different.
no subject
[He nods at the last part.]
Yeah.
no subject
Any ideas on what's happenin' here? I dunno how much we can help from this side.
no subject
It... Not entirely. It's not a place you want to spend a lot of time in unless your heart can withstand the darkness.
[He shakes his head.]
We don't know. But we plan to figure it out.
no subject
I can't speak for everybody, but I'm damn sure we ain't happy about this mess. I'll do what I can here. Just let me know what you're learnin', okay?
no subject
[Haha.]
I'll let you know. You guys sound like you have a lot on your hands, too.
no subject
There are bigger problems for now.]
Uh... Who told ya that? We're locked in here with the bear, and we just got access to the admin buildin'. Can't access most of it.
Besides... The two people with amnesia, I guess.
And we do some weird tasks for the bear. Like makin' cake with an "easy bake oven".
no subject
That's what I meant. You all helping the principal. It's keeping you busy here.
no subject
Only on Wednesdays.
no subject
I mean... Principal Bear isn't a bad guy, but he can be a handful sometimes. Accidentally.
