[They're certainly not average, no. It probably helps that she isn't, either.]
[She'd be quick to offer her (practiced) services as teacher and guide, were she not convinced that Riku is the one that Sora needs to help him, right now. It's just too early on in Sora's journey; he should have a familiar face, a friend already dear to his heart - and she has no small desire to offer them the chance to spend the time with each other they both deserve. She knows all too well how long Riku's been away from his best friends, and Sora... while Sora's not the type to be without friends for long, even in a new place, a best friend is something else entirely.]
[The girl's expression is sober, too, but her concern is couched in something thoughtful. She's not surprised by that assessment.] I was afraid that might be the case. [Her frown is pronounced as she thinks, but after a moment, she forces it into something a little more flat.] ... We'll just have to keep looking after him. [There is no other choice, really.]
