[The bathroom door's half open, and anyone passing by might get a glimpse of Riku staring into the mirror. He's leaning against the counter on his arms, irritable and tense for reasons that relate to the latest spell. Does he know exactly why? Maybe. But if he does, there's nothing he plans to do about it.]

My name is Kai.

[it's said so calmly, too.]

[stares at him for a moment, then narrows his eyes.]

Because Larxene wouldn't lie or anything.

True, true.

[taps his chin thoughtfully.]

Ask me something, then.

[quiets to think of something to ask, which doesn't come as easy as he'd like.]

... Riku's birthday. What did you do?

Drawings. One for mine, one for the one from before being possessed, and one for the kid. A picture of our trio at their respective ages.

[even manages a fond smile as he talks.]

[...frowns. he might've been happier if it was a trick.]

You're really him.

Unfortunately~.

[the smile drops and he shakes his head.]

Am I right in guessing you're my Riku, then?

[he tried to go for something not so telling, and isn't entirely sure still, but...]

Guess I am.

At least that body's not too bad, hm?

[looks at him, frowning again.]

There's that.

I mean, really, it's just a male you. Easy enough to deal with.

[shrugs and stretches.]

I'd like to complain about this one, but... well, you know the deal with it.

[narrows her eyes.]

Don't talk like Larxene just because you're in his body.

[pauses, looking almost genuinely surprised for a moment. that actually caught him off guard.]

Am I really...?

[not sure if that's good or not right now.]

Close enough.

...huh. Expect me to be all depressed when the spell is over.

... Alright.

[rubs at his face.]

It's very... odd, knowing I should be feeling certain things but not.

[sounding almost thoughtful.]

I bet it is.

[doesn't want to think about this at all.]

-- Where is he?

I don't know. I probably should've followed him...

[frooown.]

Yeah, you should've. Who knows what he'll do with your body?

[sounding irritated? you bet.]

[as close to frustrated as he can be at the moment thx.]

Not to "me"... to people I know. I have a feeling I'm going to be fixing some things when I get back.

With your body or to your body. Either way something's going to happen.

[steps out into the hall and looks around. this would be much better if he was in a body with magic.]

[damnit he knows he should care more than he does right now.]

Not sure we'd be able to find him.

[doesn't want to be too close to that body, but he's not moving away from him.]

There aren't many Kais around here. Someone had to see him.

Hn, true.

[trying to think of where Larxene would go, what he'd be doing in a body like that.]
