ask modern medicine;

[There's a study area set up in one part of the library- Books stacked near a desk which has several medical books open to various spots. There's also what looks like some medical equipment on the desk. And let's not forget the unconscious Riku lying on the ground, looking like he fell out of the chair. The syringe lying on the desk might have something to do with it.]

... to see how fast you can knock yourself out?

[That's sarcasm.]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

To keep myself from losing it.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[SIGH.]

You're not crazy, Riku.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Not yet. I give it another week.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[.... he'd really like to hit him over the head right now.]

No you're not...

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

M'not quite crazy yet, no. I was hoping the sedative would at least show something positive, but it looks like nothing's changed.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[.... notices that.]

Have you not been sleeping again?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Of course I've been trying to sleep. Whenever I wake up I'm as exhausted as when I fell asleep.

ರ_ಠ -- chat says this face reminds them of Riku.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[It's okay, Roxas understands :| he's used to this grumpy Riku thing by now.]

Is something bothering you? Nightmares or something?

ffff oh chat.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

...Something like that, yeah. You won't be able to help though.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Is it that darkness stuff again?

[ooc: Also Zoe says: /Gabby you should tell sunsettingly-mun to come into chat more /what is subtle]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that stuff. Don't worry about it, I'll figure something out.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

[.... that's kind of creepy. though he doesn't say anything about it.]

Well, can you at least tell me how it's keeping you awake? Is it hurting you?

[ooc: lol inorite. well everyone wants to talk to you :>]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Nightmares. Every time I sleep, and I keep waking up all the time...

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

And the darkness is doing that?

[khdressingroom. good :>]

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

He is. Stupid bastard isn't strong enough to take over anymore, so this is his plan B I guess.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

I know what happened with you and Kai last time, but- ...do you think that would happen again?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

...I don't know. I'm not really sure what to think anymore. Last time I thought I had control I was dead wrong.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

What about that thing that Namines can do? They- ... lock the heart or something?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Along with all your memories. I already turned that offer down the first time she asked me.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

Oh...

[Lets out a sigh.]

Have you talked to Kai since then?
... I wish I understood this stuff better than I do, but I don't.

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

We spoke briefly, and I told him not to blame himself for last time.



Maybe you should play those games if you want to understand it.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

You should talk to him again. Maybe you two can figure something out.

.... maybe I should. Are they accurate?

[sunsettingly.livejournal.com]

Maybe. I'd rather not make him feel any worse though.

At least for my world, yeah. Excluding the dressing room of course.

[f-iery.livejournal.com]

He won't feel worse if it works. You said it yourself that the darkness is getting weaker...

But then I'd know everything about you. Isn't that kind of creepy?
