Coming! Coming!

*was in the middle of doing some cleaning up since he's sort of obsessive about chores*

[Can't back out of it now, can she? This is Riku slightly leaning against the doorframe to hide her lack of an arm on that side.]

*he throws open the door, then blinks when he sees you there*

Eh?!

[She just... rubs the back of her head. This is already awkward. Good job, Ri.]

Hey.

*doesn't seem to know what to say for a moment*

... Kai's room is down the hallway a bit.

[Well this is going to be difficult.]

I know that. I came to talk to you.

... why?

*yes he's just standing in the doorway like a retard*

[Opens her mouth to say something, then promptly shuts it. Too early for that.]

... I need a new bell.

..................... you do?

*looks... stupidly pleased about that*

[Nods, dropping her hand.]

I lost my bracelet. Think you can make me a new one?

O-of course I can. Come in. Mind the chocobos.

*finally moves out of the doorway, shooing Poco and Bawk away from your feet*

[Hesitates for a second, then pulls away from the door to step inside.]

*and this is him slamming his knee into the coffee table when he realizes you are no longer symmetrical*

[It should explain why she's lost her bracelet? She just looks at him and tilts her head.]

Hadn't heard?

I heard you got hurt but I didn't know--

*that you lost a body part*

[Shrugs with her good shoulder, glancing briefly at the bandaged one.]

Could've been worse.

*is kind of staring and looking upset, then turns away abruptly to find his collar-making supplies*

Go ahead and sit on the sofa if you want.

[Starts to say something, then just moves to the sofa and sits. She's kind of glad he said that, since she's still sore.]

Thanks.

*just shrugs a bit, taking a chair and spreading his stuff on the coffee table between you and him*

Not like I'd make you stand the whole time while I do this. I thought you didn't like my collars anyway.

Yeah, well...

[Looks up at the ceiling, then blows some hair out of her face.]

*doesn't answer, busily fussing with making the plain collar, just a strip of black ribbon and a small silver bell that doesn't jingle very loudly at all*

[Alright, fine.]

So, were you planning on not talking to me forever?

What are you talking about? I'm talking to you right now, aren't I?

*snipping ribbon and such*

You know exactly what I'm talking about, so don't even try that with me. I came here to talk to you.

[Watching him.]

*pauses in his work*

So talk. I'm not stopping you.
