Who: Riku + Spade Pirates
Where: The ship.
When: Anytime during the Halloween Event!
What: SORA IS DEAD, Riku is a vampire, basically this week has sucked. :|
Warnings: Depressed Riku, I guess -- trying to keep his mopey lame times contained in one place, haha.
Style: Whichever! But I'm probably sticking with [brackets].
Status: Closed to the crew, whoever is interested (if anyone, totally cool if you want to avoid Riku being pathetic everywhere lol).


[Riku is basically either holed up in his and Sora's room, staring blankly at nothing, or he's up in the crow's nest, watching the sea. He'll still do whatever duties he has around the ship, of course, but his brain is totally elsewhere and overall he's not going out of his way to talk to anyone really. Save maybe Kairi if she's around.

Also that whole bloodlust thing? Yeah. He's ignoring it. And ignoring the need to eat or drink anything at all, really. WHO NEEDS SUSTENANCE. 8D]

[Riku knows she's right, of course, Sora was his best friend and he's going to carry that around with him for the rest of his life—but it still hurts to hear. Talking about it...is something he should do, he really should, but he's having a hard time making the words come.

He can let Kairi talk, though. He can be there for her, at least. It's what Sora would have wanted.

So he just wearily nods, silently agreeing that he'll always be with them.

He can comment on the first part, though, in a low, gruff voice. Because it still makes him angry to think about.]

You couldn't have done anything.

[...Which comes out harsher than he'd intended. He takes a deep breath before speaking again.]

Sorry, I meant—fighting wouldn't have helped, it just. That thing just touched him. There wasn't a warning, there was no time—no chance to do a damn thing.

[She pause for what could only be a brief moment.]

I'm sorry. I guess that's true, there could of been nothing done. All we can do now is... [A pause once more. She wasn't sure what exactly it was that she wanted to say, what could they do next. It would still take some time.]

We'll just think it over. I mean we're here until we find what we need.

[darknessinside]

Don't apologize...

[Sighs, letting his head rest back against the wall.]

I guess now we just keep trying to get back home. God, and that's going to suck. ...It's weird, isn't it? I keep thinking he's going to jump out from behind a wall somewhere and say it was all a big joke. And then I'll smack him because it's a terrible joke.

[watchesthesea]

[She nodded. To be honest she keeps hoping and believing that what happened wasn't sure and that he'll come back later and they'd just tell him off and all would be fine. But she knew that this wouldn't be the case.]

It is rather. Then again before this whole adventure started, we wouldn't have even dreamed of anything like this happening. [She leans forward slightly.]

I keep thinking he'll just turn up too, so it's not just you.

[darknessinside]

It just hasn't sunk in yet.

[Sighs agaaaiin.]

I don't really want it to. Though, you know if he saw us like this he'd tell us to stop moping around.

[watchesthesea]

He would. So maybe we should eventually follow what he would tell us.

[But right now, she didn't want to. For now at least.]

[darknessinside]

[Just nods and tightens his arms around her.]

Yeah...eventually sounds about right.

[watchesthesea]

[She nods slightly, choosing now to keep quiet. For now she knew wouldn't be the time to move forward, later really was the best time. Her words she believed in and she really hoped they would work on Riku after all, she wanted to help him and this was the only way.

But for now while her mind was clear and set on helping she simply moved in to hold him close, because for now she knew that's all she could do.]
