song back to you.

[someone's flat on the floor, grasping his bleeding side.]

Fucking fate needs to stop dealing me a bad hand.

[Ok, that looks like it hurts. Demyx multitasks to being god of healing now! touches his side. all better!]

You ok?

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[goes to look up at--and well, there's a look of hurt on his face before he just turns his head away.]

... m'fine.

[leaderofmuses.livejournal.com]

[frowns a little bit. yea, he's the god of truth too, riku.]

Are you?

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[there's just a quick nod.]

Y-yeah.

[leaderofmuses.livejournal.com]

[poke cheek]

You're not a very good liar.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[frown, he pulls away.]

I guess not.

[leaderofmuses.livejournal.com]

Well, then, what's wrong? Maybe I could help.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

You can't.

[leaderofmuses.livejournal.com]

You seem pretty confident about that.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

He's gone. You can't even bring him back.

[leaderofmuses.livejournal.com]

Maybe not, but you can't just sit and sulk.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

Wasn't planning on doing that.

[atotalsap.livejournal.com]

What happened?

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[... another Sora face. that hurts even more.]

... I don't know. I just woke up like this, with my Sora gone.

[atotalsap.livejournal.com]

Let me help?

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[he's not flinching back, but he wants to.]

... I don't think you can.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

...Hello?

[could hear someone talking softly, but doesn't quite know who]

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[sigh, and he shifts.]

Hi. I'm a little west of you.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

...Are you okay?

[bites his lip]

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

I'll be fine.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

[groping around until he finds the other]

You don't sound like it.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

Probably not.

[he might feel the blood dribbling down his side.]

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

[flinches at the wetness, frowning]

Is this...

Riku! You're not okay!

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

I really don't care if I am or not anymore.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

You have to care!

[takes off his shirt, not caring if he's sick or not, and tries pressing it to the wound]

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[he flinches, gritting his teeth.]

I don't see why you should, or anyone else. I'm pretty sure a lot of people would be glad there was one less Riku around.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be.

[sounds so very defeated, biting his lip]

I didn't give up when that Axel hurt me, so you can't give up e-either!

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

You don't even know me.

I'm not giving up because I was hurt, I'm giving up because my Sora's gone, again.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

I don't care if I don't know you.

[jaks; trying to pick him up, even though he has trouble walking, from being so tired]

I'm sorry he's gone, but you can't keep m-moping, okay?

[coughs, turning his head and fighting to pick him up]

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

... stop.

[he starts to pull himself up, although there's a crash and he's fallen against the wall.]

Mn...

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

[wobbles and keeps trying to help, worried]

A-are you-- okay?

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

I'm fine.

--please, just... leave me alone.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

But you're bleeding.

[whispers it, kind of hurt.]

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

I'll find a potion or something.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

But-

[wavers, trying to think what to do]

No, I wanna help. Let me at least take you to a room so you can lay down and I can find you a potion.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[he sighs, knowing Soras don't give up.]

Fine, fine...

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

[w-wins]

Okay, I can't...see, so you're gonna have to help me double check if there's a door.

[presses his shirt to Riku's side again, and tugs him along, trying to help support him.]

I know my room is twenty-three down, left, four, then a right, and third door on the left.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

Uh, right... okay.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

[just leads him down, keeping a hand pressed over the shirt and takes them to his room, doublechecking to see if it was his, just by touching the little piece of paper he'd taped to the door, and helped Riku into the bed.]

I'm gonna go find a potion, okay? Don't move.

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[just... sits.]

I won't.

[iwasarealboy.livejournal.com]

[goes to ask the DR.]

[ooc; making a post fff]

[xehanort-xemnas.livejournal.com]

[A tall silver haired man walks by and sees the silver haired youth]
Why Hello! Dear boy, are you alright? Here, show me where it hurts.
[Ansem looks into Riku's eyes and smiles]
I have missed you... but my aim is getting better!

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[freaking dot dot dot.]

... get away from me, please.

[xehanort-xemnas.livejournal.com]

[a dark smile spreads across his mouth exposing brilliantly white and slightly pointed teeth]
You know I love it when you play hard to get. But I know you'll surrender to me eventually. You always do!

[as the princes from "Into the Woods" say: "The Harder to Get, the Better to Have!"]

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[shudder.]

I don't need two of you. Get out of here before I start stabbing you.

[xehanort-xemnas.livejournal.com]

"Ah! but you remember that I like it when you... 'Penetrate'... me Riku!"
[Ansem smirked and turned]
"I will go, for now. But I will always be there, in your shadow!"
[and with that, Ansem vannished]

[complexikey.livejournal.com]

[runs over, spying him bleeding, chain jingling as he looks over the boy's injury, patched up slightly]

W-what... what the hell?

[destinedtinsel.livejournal.com]

[he's been trying to get up in the last few minutes, although he frowns at the floor when Riku gets to him.]

I'll be fine...
