I can lie to myself

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

[In the farthest hallways of the DR, where Heartless are more prone to roam, a pair of bloody footprints seems to have appeared out of no where on the floor. They lead in a straight path over the floor, until one might run across a blood-soaked shirt dropped in a messy and gory pile. The bloody footsteps end at a pile of equally bloody clothes and shoes, and a closed bathroom door. The water sounds like it's running.]

[...well then. he's tempted to knock on the door after following that trail, but instead he goes to grab a change of clothing in case Ri doesn't have one in there with him.]

*he wasn't exactly thinking clearly, so that will be appreciated once he's coherent*

[regalheart]

[once he has some clothing, he'll knock on the bathroom door before leaning against the wall beside it.]

Ri?

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*that's the sound of retching, yes; the door's unlocked btw*

[regalheart]

Ri...

[he pushes open the door, heading inside with the clothing, sighing.]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*he's got his head in the toilet, and he's barfing up Darkness... mostly; and he's got boxers on still, since they were the only thing he was wearing that didn't get splattered in blood*

[regalheart]

God, Ri, what are you doing to yourself?

[does Ri need some back rubs. somehow I don't think Light-based help would be... well, helpful.]

[twilit-papa.livejournal.com]

[he's been following the bloody trail, and the familiar clothes confirm who it is. he doesn't bother to knock, pushing the door open to give Ri a weary look.]

You can't keep doing this.

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*he doesn't look up, just wiping his mouth because he's overloading on Darkness and just because he can do this doesn't mean he enjoys it*

... someone has to.

[twilit-papa.livejournal.com]

[He can feel that, and it only makes him feel more useless in this situation.]

No, they don't. Can't you see what it's doing to you?

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*his eyes almost look they're stained gold at this point, which probably doesn't help either*

Do you want me to just fucking let him go? After what he's done?

[twilit-papa.livejournal.com]

[he's coming over now, to turn Ri's head toward a mirror.]

Look at yourself, Ri. Just look at what he's turning you into!

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*he tries not to look, he already knows what the Darkness has done to him now that he has a Heart, and he doesn't like to see that shining gold color*

He's the one who turned me into this! I won't let him go. He has to suffer, the way Rikka is suffering!

[H-holy shit. Way to worry her. Namine will be following the trail of bloody footprints until she finds the clothes and door, and was about to knock, but then she recognizes that darkness.]

...R-Ri?

[She so hopes that blood belongs to someone else.]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*hold on there's barfing noises coming from inside the bathroom*

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[Barfing why? D: She'll be, hesitantly opening that door now.]

Ri?

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*you'll be treated to the sight of Ri vomiting up Darkness, which is something he has tried very hard to hide from the 'children'; and he's wearing boxers, but the rest of him (especially his hands) is splattered with blood*

Sorry for late reply! Internet's been dead. D:

[runawaycrayon.livejournal.com]

[She's frozen in shock for a moment, before hurrying over to hold his hair back. She cant do anything about the darkness unfortunately, but she'll do whatever she can.]

totes ok my internet is slow all the time XD;;

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*once he can get a hold of himself, he'll try to wave you away*

Y-you shouldn't... be here...

*tags despite not feeling like tagging*

[smolderingf1re]

[sighs loudly when he picks up the blood trail, and follows it to the bathroom, shifting Inaya in his arms as he pushes the door open.]

You went overboard, didn't you. Is there anything left?

awww

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*he's busy barfing up Darkness, so he'll answer you in a bit*

[smolderingf1re]

[leans quietly against the edge of the counter to wait, then, tickling Inaya's tummy and making her gurgle.]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*why did you have to bring the babby? babbies shouldn't see Uncle Ri like this*

[smolderingf1re]

[because she's not paying attention to Uncle Ri, and can't even remember people once they're out of her sightline yet. :Db]

[windup-daddy.livejournal.com]

*he's just going to be rinsing out his mouth then, and he's wearing boxers, so there's nothing shocking... except the blood smeared over his skin and maybe even his hair*
