[Who's that snoozing on the couch, book in lap? Sora of course. He was trying to read that huge medical book sitting on his lap.

...

Yeah, that didn't happen.]

Do I know you?

I swear, you have this Mary Kate and Ashley thing.

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[Aaand now he's awake, and a little groggy.

Stares at the strange man]

...

[ TAKES OUT UBER SHARP KATANA ]

Maybe you got a pullstring behind you. Yeah, that's it!

[ Looks behind, and see's none. POKES WITH SWORD. ]

[a strangled noise escaped him and he scrambled away, grasping for his pen and notepad.

The writing is really messy, but...]

I can't talk!

[deadshooter.livejournal.com]

But you just made a noise! You can so talk.

[ Takes out.. A GRENADE. ]

Maybe if I put you in pain a little more, huh? This stuff going down Creed's pants always makes him roar!

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[Oh dear sweet Jesus! He didn't even have time to explain! Well, it's safe to say he's fully awake now. And there he goes, fleeing with all the speed he could muster.]

[deadshooter.livejournal.com]

..... Kids these days.

[ THE GRENADE EXPLODES, only to have a perfectly unharmed chocolate ice cream on a wafer cone in his hand. ]

They don't appreciate what we grown ups have to do! Back in my days, we had to pay for ice cream!

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[hands over his ears, and he cautiously looks back- expecting to see guts and gross all over the place. But... what?

Hesitant... curiously comes a little closer, but still a safe distance away in case he needed to flee again]

[Science!experiment Riku comes over, dragging a large, thick blanket, and gently drapes it over Sora~]

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[stirs a little, yawning before he lazily opens an eye. ...No, it couldn't be. Riku? That certainly got both eyes open. Frowns slightly, wondering what to do.

Mouth opens to say something, but nothing can get out.]

...?

[createdheart.livejournal.com]

[headtilt]

Are you alright?

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[Searches for his notepad and pen. Taps his lip with the pen cap, wondering what to say.]

Yeah, just a little sleepy. But I can't talk.

...

Are you really Riku?

...

....I can't read.

This will be a THRILLING conversation.

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[dsjvhjdk panics a little. Mouth opens again, trying to force something out. Now he actually wanted to speak but he couldn't. A sort of squeek came out, but not much else.

Eyes watering a little he tried to think.

Closes his mouth, frowns then puts a palm overs his mouth, shaking his head.

...

Wishes he was better at charades too.]

I'm loling so hard but feel so bad.

[createdheart.livejournal.com]

[looooooks really guilty, trying to think what to do.]

I'm...sorry. I was never instructed how to read or write.

Same. XD

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[sigh...

...

ping!

Grabs his notebook again and draws the bottom half of a face, putting and 'x' on the throat and lips, then shows]

Re: Same. XD

[createdheart.livejournal.com]

[just kind of stares blankly at it and then at Sora]

I understand you're unable to speak.

[small smile]

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[smiles brightly for a moment... but then his face falls. Great. He just established that there was no way for them to communicate.

lower lip quivers a little before he hangs his head sadly.

Dammit.]

[createdheart.livejournal.com]

[Said very, very quietly, as he goes to sit down next to him]

I'm sorry. I haven't had a chance to learn.

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[doesn't look up for a moment before he manages a smile, looking back at Riku.

...

Not too sure if this will work, but slowly mouths the words]

It's okay.

[createdheart.livejournal.com]

[smiles a bit, though it's still got edges of guilt]

Thank you.

Do you want me to leave? I'm not any good to you as such.

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[shakes his head with a small yawn. He decided mouthing the words were his best option right now]

No. Stay a little longer, please.

[sinks into the couch a little more, unashamedly leaning into Riku. Eyes closing sleepily]

[createdheart.livejournal.com]

..A...Alright, if you like.

[still kind of surprised when people want his company, but he lets Sora, even more surprised when he's touched.]

Blanket?

[muted-heart.livejournal.com]

[nods against him, a small little smile forming.

Okay... so it was hopeless in like... every single way. But Riku was Riku. And that's all Sora needed right now]

[createdheart.livejournal.com]

[Gently, carefully takes the blanket, wrapping it around Sora and tucking in the edges as he leans back, a hand resting on his shoulder]

You may sleep if you like...
