[Destiny Islands. He hasn't really been here since he destroyed it, but visiting this room gives him... Mixed feelings. He sits on the paopu tree, staring out at sea, wondering if a creature like him--a Heartless--is even worthy of the light of this world. He stares at one of his hands, frowning at it. How long until he reverts? Does the spell last forever? Mm... Maybe he should find someone else to make a deal with, to reinforce his human form.

But for now, maybe, the Heartless will try and enjoy the sea breeze and the light.]

Hey, if I did it to anyone, it'd be my other adoptive dad. You know, the one who did this to me?

[He's very bitter, thank you.]

[windup_daddy]

[still grumbly and cranky]

That would be even worse. There's some people you don't want to take the Darkness of, because it'll end up poisoning you.

[dealwithawitch]

Fine, fine. I won't push it.

[...He'd still like to eat Ansem. 8| ]

[clockworknomore]

Don't worry, if he won't teach you, I will. Can't have you eating all the Hearts I have.

[dealwithawitch]

I'm not sure I should. I... Don't want to risk losing myself.

[Maybe he'll just try and find a Keyblader to hang out with and snatch hearts when they're released.]

[windup_daddy]

That's the right mindset to have. I'm not sure if you could even do it, or if it would help... feed you.

[maybe someone could help definitely]

[dealwithawitch]

[Sora nods, then smiles and looks to the other boy.]

By the way, I don't think I caught your name.

[clockworknomore]

[hey, he's 20 thank you very much; and he's going to be giving a little shrug]

You can call me 'Riku'.

[gee that sounds familiar]

[dealwithawitch]

All right, Riku. I'm... Sora, but I think you figured that out.

[He'll offer a hand to shake, since it's the polite thing AND HE HAS MANNERS.]

[clockworknomore]

Yeah, it was kind of noticeable.

[shaking hands! he doesn't put much stock in manners unless his Brother is watching, but having Ri here is just about the same]

Also, Uncle Ri tends to freak out more over Soras.

[dealwithawitch]

I noticed.

[If Ri hadn't taken care of him, he'd probably still be a douche, after all. 8|;;; ]

[windup_daddy]

You two are so unappreciative of me!

[dealwithawitch]

That's not true.

[You know he appreciates you, not!dad. >:]

[clockworknomore]

We just don't fawn over you like all your other little anklebiters.

[fanning the flames here]

[dealwithawitch]

[Riku, stop.]

You know I'm weird with showing affection, Ri.

[windup_daddy]

['Riku' lives to annoy Ri sometimes; btw has Sora realized something strange about him yet?]

I know, Sora. It's just this one that's maladjusted. Even if Kai raised him.

[dealwithawitch]

[Sob no. He's been too distracted by hunger and hearts.]

Really?

[clockworknomore]

[maybe now that he's eaten something, he'll start to notice the strange feeling coming from 'Riku', namely, he doesn't feel like anything Sora would remotely want to eat... it's rather the same feeling that comes from the younger-Ri]

Hey now, no mocking Kai. He's the best big brother anyone could have. Sora, I've lived in the DR since I was... hmmm... a month old, I guess.

[dealwithawitch]

Wow. That's young.

[He wouldn't eat Riku anyway. But yeah, he doesn't seem to be appetizing now that he thinks about it...]

[clockworknomore]

Yeah, pretty much. Brother must've been so annoyed to have me underfoot and asking so many questions all the time.

[running around at one month? that's strange isn't it]

[dealwithawitch]

...

[...Very confusing. And Sora probably looks confused, too.]

...You were running around already?

[clockworknomore]

Of course I was. After all, I'm--

[he cuts himself off as realization dawns, and he throws Ri a Look]

How the hell did he not find out if he knows you? That's not something that's particularly hard to hide.

2/2

[windup_daddy]

... it didn't come up?

[dealwithawitch]

What? What didn't come up?

[You now have a confused not!son, Ri.]

[windup_daddy]

It's not my fault if he didn't pick up on it himself. I kept telling Sora he needed better control.
