[ he feels like a child again, walking around the dr all alone. he knows he's lost; it's worse when everyone around looks like, acts like, is someone he knows or knew.

Riku stops. he's tense; scared and intimidated, he's gone into defensive mode. he doesn't make eye contact; he doesn't look at others for very long without feeling like he's lost his identity.

and he would know all about that. ]

Because you're me.

[and he continues walking now.]

I'm not a liar.

[ doesn't follow. now he thinks he's just annoying. ]

Never said you were.

[he looks back at him and raises an eyebrow. he just doesn't trust himself, and that stretches to any other Riku.]

[ that lack of trust shouldn't hurt Riku like it does. honestly Riku doesn't trust himself; literally facing it is painful. ]

I think it's insinuated.

I think you're overreacting to something you've known since day one.

[he's turned to look at him dead-on, arms at his sides.]

[ face your fears; it's head-on for Riku here on out. ]

What is that?

[hands in his pockets, he gives him a good look.]

You can't expect me to just say the answer. I thought you were all about finding things out for yourself, Riku.

I am. I'm searching my heart for what I want to know.

[ it's a good shot, or so he thinks. ]

Then it sounds like you don't need me to tell you.

For all you know, I could be a figment of your imagination.

Or my shoulder angel.

Or your shoulder devil, depending on how you're viewing me at the minute.

It wavers.

Good. It should.

[there he goes again, walking away.]
