[If anyone's been looking for this Riku the past two weeks, they wouldn't have found him anywhere. He was pulled from the DR and has just recently returned this morning. Unwillingly, of course, as he'd much rather have stayed back in his world, but sometimes things just don't work out like that.

And just to mess with him some more, the DR's plucked him right out of his bed. He's sitting on the curb of the sidewalk outside of the apartments in a t-shirt and pajama pants, looking irritated and only half awake.]

Someone please tell me I'm not where I think I am.

He's never been nice. I think he was programmed wrong.

[To Shiru] Nice to see you, too! I hope you got more than sugary stuff.

[There are sounds of bags rustling and grocery items being set on the counter, then:]

I can hear both of you, just so you know. And no, I wasn't expecting you to be here so you can get your own food, Real Thing.

[now she's rounding on you after setting down the kitten, because she's sensitive on the subject of Replicas]

Don't say that about Shiru! It's mean! And not true.

[Take that, Riku. Now she's angry at you. Kira might notice that Shiru's moved and is leaning against the wall nearby behind her, grinning.]

[Two against one isn't very fair. Riku glances from Kira to Shiru, frowning.]

...You don't know that.

But fine, I won't say anything bad about him.

[Very reluctantly, and only because there's a guest.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

Of course I know it! You're just being a boy about it. I won't let you say anything like that around me.

[and then she whirls around don't look at how her skirt flares to beam at Shiru]

Hi! My name is Kira! I'm happy to meet you!

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

[Slight bewilderment over here. That was a quick change. Totally not watching your skirt.]

Hi Kira...you seem to know my name already.

[And now the kitten is winding himselfaround Shiru's legs. Shiru picks him up for headscritches. Meanwhile, Riku has gone to sulk on one of the couches in the living room.]

This is...my cat. I dunno what gender it is or what to call it.

[He's been calling him 'Kitty' for the couple days he's had him.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[Kira is She of Volatile Emotions, you'll get used to it; also boo Riku no emo sulking]

Well, Riku told me your name. And your kitten is a boy, so you should give him a good name, so he knows who he is.

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

[Riku will ignore your booing his sulking. Not that he knows you're booing it, but still. Shiru, on the other hand, will hold the kitty up to face level as if it will help him think.]

Um...how about Tasogare? [He's heard of it used as a pet name before. He looks to Kira for approval.] Or just Taso?

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

Tasogare is too big a name for a little kitten. But Taso sounds nice.

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

[Have a happy Shiru. Or relatively happy.]

It is? I'll take your word for it...I've never had a pet before.

[Somehow he manages to sound less like the 17-year-old he looks like and more like an unsure little kid.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[that's so cute]

We never had pets in our family. Unless you count the chocobos.

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

What's a chocobo?

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[D:]

You don't know what a chocobo is?! Riku doesn't either? This is terrible!

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

I don't know whether he does or not, but I don't.

[Y so flail? He doesn't find it that terrible.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

That's it. I definitely have to take you two to the chocobo stables to see them then. Chocobos are the best animals ever!

[because Kira is the excitable sort]

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

Sure. Um...right now, or what?

[She makes him look pretty calm by comparison.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

We can go any time. But first! Is that really all the food you have? It's not very healthy.

[such is the joy of being a teenage girl]

I miss having a paid account for this guy

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

[He eats healthy stuff...sometimes. He's not a complete idiot.]

I get what I like. Or what looks good.

[His logic, it is infallible. He's trying to learn how to do this shopping thing without a list. Or someone to help him.

Aand now he's going back to the groceries he abandoned. Feel free to lecture him more.]

awww sadness for lack of icons?

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

Do either of you know how to cook? Or have someone to cook for you?

[she's butting in to rustle through everything, making disappointed 'tut-tut' noises at the unhealthy boy food]

That, and being able to edit comments

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

Aerith was teaching me how to cook. Riku claims he can, but he hasn't proved it yet, so I don't believe him.

[There are some salad-type veggies because he at least knows how to make salad without melting things. But most of the rest is junk food.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

I can cook. Me and Mama always make extra food for people who can't. But you'd have to go to the big kitchen in our hallway in the apartments.

[you are such boys :/]

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

[That they are.]

I don't go to the apartments very often. Maybe I should, if I have a chance to get food.

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

It's all delicious! And I love to bake.

[darkyang.livejournal.com]

[And Shiru is pinged by baking. Baking often means sweet stuff. Are you in need of a test subject at all, Kira?]

What kind of stuff do you like to make?
