[There is something delicious being cooked up in the kitchen today, the aroma floating it's way down the hallway. This Terra is keeping busy cooking up various full meals- She seems to be stocking the refrigerator- and there is definitely plenty for anyone interested. As for that aroma? That's probably the freshly baked cookies that are currently sitting on the cooling rack.]

Certainly nothing bad. He thinks very highly of you-- if you are the Riku in question, of course.

Though he did mention you both had run into some unfortunate with the past few spells.

[dawnrise]

... Yeah, I'm that Riku.

[That makes her look away, and take a long sip of that water.]

[She hesitates, keeping her gaze on the pot.]

... he'll kill me if he finds out I said this, but-- he really does feel terrible about the whole thing.

[dawnrise]

[She almost chokes on her water, setting it down abruptly and using her other hand to cover her mouth.]

Did he tell you that?

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

He doesn't bother lying to me anymore. I always can tell.

Roxas was really upset over it... and not just because of Namine either.

[dawnrise]

[She stares down at he glass in silence, then shakes her head.]

I'm sure he was.

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

He means well, with whatever he does. Under a spell or not, I'm sure he would have tried to help either way.

[She just sighs and leans against the counter.]

I don't blame you if you're still upset over it.

[dawnrise]

Like he could have done anything without the spell.

[She snorts and shakes her head, swirling the water around in her glass.]

I'm fine.

[You shouldn't lie to someone's mother, Riku.]

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

[She crosses her arms, giving her the 'are you kidding' look.]

Isn't everyone... I don't want to get in the middle of this. It's not my place. I just wanted to you to know that he respects you more than you probably think.

[dawnrise]

[Aha, she's not looking at her. She looks uncomfortable enough as it is.]

Sure.

[Terra just sighs and turns back to her cooking.]

[dawnrise]

[This is way too awkward for her to stick around, so unless Terra has anything else to say, Riku will be leaving.]

[notyourmommy.livejournal.com]

[Nope, she has nothing. But she'll watch Riku leave out of the corner of her eye.]
