Characters: OU!Riku and OPEN
Setting: All the floors, Night time
Format: Gonna go with action; but if you are more comfortable with prose, go for it!
Summary: Riku decided to go out at night and take on a private fact-finding mission. Someone has to start taking notes on the different monsters after all, right?
Warnings: Some violence, will update as needed
[Ever since the Tower had folded itself together into one room and almost overwhelmed its residents/prisoners with that army of monsters, the floors have become far more unsafe... at least, as far as Riku had noticed.
He is used to the constant threat of being attack, has gotten used to it long before he had been drawn into the tower, but the constellation of creatures it has thrown at him so far... is interesting to say at least. Some of them he knows of course, but there are many, far too many, he thinks, that he knows nothing of, that don't feel like Heartless or Nobodies or anything else he's ever encountered and he's pretty sure that only some of them are creatures of the tower.
Tonight he has assigned himself a fact-finding mission in that regard - to find out just which Heartless have made it to this place, just how many other creatures aside of them, to get an idea how to fight those he doesn't know.
He is wandering the floors in silence, head slightly bowed, his hand gripping tight around Soul Eater as he stretches his sense the best he can - he prefers not to be surprised if he can help it. While he won't ask or even accept help if offered aloud, he most likely won't stop anyone from helping out either, if he happens to be in the middle of a fight. He won't hesitate to come help out, should anyone find themselves in trouble either.
Help/bother/distract/talk to him?]
[ooc: If you haven't, please take a look at his permissions post!]

He steps a little closer, shaking his head.]
I'm good. [He frowns for a moment, wondering how to get the answers to his questions without asking them, then nods at the wooden Keyblade.] ...That's an interesting weapon.
[Well, that's probably a better approach than "Why do you have the Keyblade." Right?]
no subject
[He carefully set the wood keyblade on the ground and help out his hand, Wayward Wind appearing in his grip in a flash of light.] It's called a Keyblade. Cool, huh?
no subject
[He hasn't seen enough other weapons in this world to know what other kinds there are around here. He keeps his face carefully neutral at the sight of Ven's Keyblade, though behind that facade he can't help but wonder... just who is this guy?]
...It is.
no subject
Regardless, Ven allowed the keyblade to disappear in the same way it appeared, and dawdled a minute before speaking once again.]
Um, so! My name's Ventus. You?
no subject
I'm Riku.
no subject
[Huh. Another case of the doubles running around? Or amnesia. Either way.]
So... what's up? You have somewhere to go right now?
no subject
Considering their respective experiences with replicas, they are probably both pretty thankful for that.He shrugs, he doesn't have anywhere particular to be, though he should be hunting for Heartless and other monsters. He can take a break for now though.]
Not really.
no subject
Goddamn replicas all of them.]Oh. [Welp. Uh, this guy isn't very talkative. Hmm.]
You, wanna go do something then? There's probably not much to do right now, but it's better than wandering around alone, right?
no subject
He crooks his head slightly.]
...What do you have in mind?
no subject
Anything! This place is weird, but there's a lot of stuff to do. There's at least two libraries, a media room, an aquarium, a forest, a workshop, all sorts of stuff. Anything you want to do?
no subject
He looks slightly amused as he reaches up and tugs lightly at his blindfold. You do realize that most of the things you just proposed would require for him not to (pretend to) be blind, right?]
Not sure how much... fun I'd be. You should probably look for another companion.
no subject
REGARDLESS Ven just kept grinning, even if Riku couldn't see him (sort of maybe).]
No way! Everyone likes to have fun once in awhile. There's no reason you can't too!
no subject
It will be better not to go into whether or whether he can't see that grin (chances are he can... though how is anyone's guess) and maybe... he feels a little bit like he's facing Sora. Which is kind of weird. To say the least.
Especially considering whose facetwin Ventus is.
...It probably shows that he is not entirely sure how to answer to that, because... admittedly it's been a while since he's considered doing anything just for the fun of it. There had always been someone to watch or the one or other errant to run for DiZ before he had started to prepare for his fight with Roxas and even here... it's hard to fall out of the patterns he has gotten used to over the course of the last year.
Still...]
...I suppose.
no subject
I mean, I don't want to make you uncomfortable or anything. But there's nothing wrong with letting loose every now and then, right?
no subject
He still can't quite help the almost fond smile that flickers over his face at that particular statement - it reminds him just too much of the things that Mickey keeps telling him, whenever their paths cross.]
True enough.
[He guesses at least. Maybe... he can indulge this a little. For now at least.]
no subject
Cool! In that case, I'll show you one of my favorite floors! Come on!
[And off he runs towards the descending stair case.]
no subject
no subject
Check it out! This is one of my favorite floors; cool huh?
no subject
Yeah...
no subject
Uh, everything OK?
no subject
Yeah... everything's fine.
no subject
no subject
So yeah... he just had to. get a grip on himself. And relax a little.
His shoulders slouch down a bit, his hands disappearing into his coat pockets as he shakes his head again.]
No, it's okay.
no subject
Then check it out! [And he gestured towards the aquarium properly, sticking his hand in.] You can even go swimming inside if you wanted!
no subject
He tilts his head a little, then walks up to the aquarium, hand carefully pressing against the water.]
...Interesting.
