[TIME FOR AN ENTIRELY TOO LONG MULTI-CHARACTER POST.

seasides is in the kitchen... what a boring guy. with things set up kind of how they used to be, and people once again relying on the kitchens, he's made his way to the main one to cook up some stuff to stash away in the fridge and freezer for others!

fading is not amused. he's trapped in a cage in a section of hallway made of white sand and marble. the cage isn't very big, which has him stuck sitting, and looking rather grumpy. there's no visible lock on it.

skybright is currently pushing herself in a training room, magic drained and looking half ready to collapse where she stands. there's a first aid kit sitting on a bench nearby, several bottles (elixirs, mostly) sitting empty next to it.

ghastlydawn hasn't been seen much, but she has been around. super disappointed with the change in the DR still - she grew up in the open world version, after all - she's been exploring to keep herself from lingering on her thoughts and getting even more homesick than she already is.

before is... pinned to a wall with several familiar knives. he doesn't look more than a little beat up, and mostly amused! he's got no idea why a Larxene attacked him, only to do barely anything aside from pin him there, but he can't move his hand enough to pull any of the knives out, and he doesn't want to rip his jacket. oh well.

islandflower is sitting in an outdoor room, a simple-looking field with several slightly battered targets some distance away, taking a break from practicing magic. the door is open and she's well in sight, but she's rather distracted reading.

fromshadow has found something that looks like it's fresh out of Halloween Town. it's a gloomy, mist-covered room, the door opening to a large clearing amidst spindly frost-coated trees. the clearing is filled with row upon row of gravestones, but each and every one of them marks an empty grave, the spaces all cleanly dug out but not even holding a coffin. he's standing just inside the doorway, too wary to actually go and check it all out.

conflagrate, who I totally didn't forget about, is in one of the closets. this particular one seems to hold clothing for both male and female, and she's just sort of absently browsing the men's button-down shirts at the moment. for some reason, all her clothing has gone and vanished from her room-house-thing, so she's rebuilding her wardrobe.]

[She's one step ahead of him, in that case! He still hasn't really bothered to look.]

[She has too many friends who get injured.]

What have you been up to, anyway? Other than being targeted by Larxenes.

Re-acquainting myself with hallways.

I figured that much.

[Geez. Hello, bathroom. Riku steps inside and immediately starts opening cabinets.]

[He really hadn't been doing anything in particular! And he'll just chill while she does that.]

[She points at a place for him to sit as she gathers bandages, not even looking up. Sit.]

[Woof. He's sitting, don't worry. And even keeping one arm away from himself for when she starts!]

[Good. It won't take long since they're not deep cuts. It'll just be a little tedious. Mid-way through the first one she looks up to check his eye.]

[It's starting to look pretty impressive! His vision's probably getting a little funny on that side because of the swelling.]

[He'll be able to guess that it's pretty bad by how she keeps getting distracted by it. After she puts on three of the bandages she leans up to gently put a hand on the side of his face.]

What did she hit you with?

Her fist. And then her fist again.

[It definitely would have been painful if he wasn't able to turn pain off. He did actually feel the first one, since he hadn't expected it.]

You sure?

[It looks awful.]

How's it feel with pain on?

Nothing's broken, if that's what you're worried about.

[He slowly turns pain back on, wincing a little.]

Painful.

I wasn't really worried about that. Do you want something to put on it?

[Ice, maybe?]

I should, yeah.

[Turning pain off again now that he's felt that. Damn.]

[She winces a little, then quickly goes about fixing up the rest of the cuts.]

You should.

I will, then.

[Might as well and all that.]

Want some help?

[Since she's going to anyway and all.]

Sure.

[He knows, which is why he agreed so easily.]

[Good boy. Riku looks pleased, and a little amused.]

I remember a time when it was impossible to get you to go along with that so easily.

You've trained me well.

[Red, your tone gets any more dry and you're gonna cause a drought.]

Yeah, and it wasn't easy. How about you turn pain back on?

[Don't do it, Red. She's tapping that bruise around his eye again. Hmph.]

I'm tempted to do it just so you're responsible for hurting me by doing that.

[Jerk!!]

Maybe that's the point.

[She stops, though, and crosses her arms.]

Let's go get you some ice.

Alright.

[He'll follow your lead, Riku~.]
