[ Riku would like to think that, one day, she'll get over this. She knows she's herself now, no one else, but there are times when the effects Ansem had on her really make themselves known. And she's really getting sick of this neverending cycle. Especially when even her skin changes colors.

She's kneeling just inside the entrance to Halloween Town, bent over so far that her hair brushes across the ground. Her forehead rests across one arm for support, fingers digging into the dirt, while the other hand clutches at her chest. Her altered appearance aside (and we don't mean her normal black costume), there might be something more worrying about this picture. There are Shadows rising from the floor around her. ]

You've come back from this before.

[Turns so she can look at him, and cracks a small smile at that. It probably looks strained.]

Yeah.

............ do you want me to build a crazy machine and make it blow up? My Riku told me that worked.

[Breathes out another laugh at that, shaking her head.]

Not something we should try again.

*he's trying to make you feel better is it working*

You know I'd do whatever it takes.

[It is, actually. What she's experiencing isn't really physically painful, but what it is doing is slowly easing up. Having a distraction helps a lot.]

I think that was just a lucky shot.

Well, you don't know unless you try it again.

*he can be distracting*

I don't think we'd find one of those here, Ri.

[He's doing a very good job of it. She's even standing up now, a little shaky. However, there's nothing shaky about how Way to Dawn suddenly slices through those Heartless.]

I can slap something together that would be even better. I even have the microwave room marked off.

*he watches your movements with a critical eye*

No thanks. You can keep those explosions to yourself.

[She doesn't stop until the Heartless are all gone, and stops to stare down at her Keyblade.]

You know you wanna see a microwave explode in a fiery ball.

*wonders what you're looking at*

It's not one of my life goals.

[Her Keyblade, of course. But she dismisses it after a moment, staring at her hand instead.]

Yet.

... is something wrong?

[... Shakes her head.]

Nothing I won't fix.

*waves you over*

Come here.

[She glances over, but seems hesitant to do that.]

I can come in there after you, but I hate what Halloween Town turns me into.

[Forces a smile this time, looking down at her outfit.]

I don't mind mine.

[It covers up most of her skin. But she'll start walking over.]

Oh fine. At least you don't turn into a vampire like my Riku does.

*he takes a step into the room, and grimaces as he changes; laa~ have a dead angel hovering a few inches off the floor*

Hey, grab hold of me before I drift too high!

[No, just dresses like one. Her (tied) wings flutter a little when he steps inside, and she speeds up a bit so she can grab his arm.]

If you hate it so much then why'd you come in?

*he'll just bob like an awkward balloon then*

Because you're my friend.

[Well it doesn't take long for her to sigh and try to drag him through the door.]

*bobbing bobbing~*

The things I do for you.

[Her grip might have tightened a little, but she's not stopping.]

Oh, pull me down more once we get to the door or I'll fall.
