007
Characters: Riku (justabignobody) and Naminé (lethechained), then O P E N
Setting: 5th September, Daytime, all around the Tower
Format: Action to start with, but I'll match!
Summary: After spending a month back home (and finding out that it is really all destroyed) Riku returns to the Tower. Clearly, the first thing on order is to check up on everyone!
Warnings: Non as of now.
[A - Dormitory Hallways - Closed to Naminé]
[It's... hard to say just how much time has passed since he woke from the dreams into a living nightmare, since he had realized that this wasn't another trick, another dream, but reality. How much time he's spent wandering, wondering, thinking.
Sometimes along the road, he had decided not to give up, not to give into the despair - no matter how tempting it might seem.
And the moment he reawakens and knows, feels that something has changed, he also knows that that was the right decision to make.
Finally, he steps out of his room, still slightly disoriented, but determined to find somebody.
(He has missed them. He has missed them so much and the ache in his heart is even worse than it had been in those ten months before he had arrived in the tower)]
[B - All around the Tower - Open to all!]
[Things are clearer nownot just because his hair and bangs are maybe just a little bit shorter). A whole month has passed since he had been forced to sleep. A lot has happened since, a lot he has missed. But even though Naminé has reassured him that everyone is fine, that non of their friends is gone or hurt (too badly at least), he needs to make sure himself.
So, for once Riku is the one, who systematically wanders the floors in search of familiar faces (and possibly running into some not so familiar ones). And for once, the relief of being back, of being back with people is showing more and more, with every passing hour.]
[ooc: a.) Please indicate the number of the Floor you want to run into Riku, either in the subject line or the tag itself!
b.) I'll probably still be using some blindfold icons, but as of now Riku is not wearing it anymore.
c.) Also, if you haven't please take a moment for his permissions post!]

Floor 14
Besides, playing games by yourself was pretty boring. That might have been his problem.
Still, it was something to do, and it was better than sitting around and thinking. Worrying. There was way too much of that to do in this place, but Sora would rather find a way to keep his mind off of things.
It was hard, though, because he was worried. About a few things, but especially about one in particular. No one had seen Riku - the one from his world - for a while. Where was he?
He turns off the gaming system, giving an annoyed glance to one of the unused televisons that turns on in a burst of static. It didn't make him jump like it did when he first came to the tower, but it was still a little bit creepy. There's not much point in trying to turn it off, though, so he jsut leaves it.
He can be found going through all the other games, trying to decide if he wanted to try something else or find another distraction.]
no subject
He's not entirely sure just how much time he spends awkwardly standing at the entrance to the floor and watching Sora shuffling through the games, maybe kind of stuck on how to call out, what to say...
Until he decides that well, he might as well keep the tradition running and make his way over soundlessly, only speaking up when he's leaning to peer over Sora's shoulder (or at least pretending to).]
Found anything interesting?
no subject
Geez, Riku, why do you have to-
[Wait, it's...Riku. Sora turns around fully, taking a good long look and confirming that yes, this is the Riku from his world. Looking a bit different, but it was definitely him. Sora's face lights up, a lot of the worry he was trying to shove aside earlier vanishing in an instant. He's okay! He's here!]
Riku! You're back!
[Of course, there's an important question to add to that.]
Where have you been?
no subject
aside of the fun of seeing Sora jump of courseI mean...busted isn't he?.He just smirks lightly at that reaction - he is not ever going to answer the why, it really should be kind of obvious, shouldn't it? It fades quickly into a smile though - after the last month seeing Sora now is just. Relieving. More than he could ever put in words.]
Yeah.
[A moment of hesitation follows, because well... where he's been kind of has become a not-talking-about-this-topic.]
The administrators decided to send me on a trip for some reason. I'm back for good now though.
[Hopefully at least]
no subject
[There's no way Sora can just leave it at that, of course - he's been wondering about where Riku is for too long not to be curious.]
Where did they send you?
[If it was the administrators, he wonders if it was somewhere dangerous, or if it was another experiment. Riku looked fine, at least, but it was hard not to worry a little anyway.]
no subject
[Sora may be curious, but as said. It's a not-talking-about-this-topic. Hence him being super vague.]
It's not that important. [...Okay. Even Riku admits that this isn't exactly a lot to go on. Never mind enough to keep anyone, never mind Sora, from worrying.] It wasn't a dangerous place, if that's what you are wondering.
no subject
[It certainly isn't enough to keep him from wondering and worrying, and Sora doesn't sound very convinced that it's not important.]
Then how come you aren't telling me anything about it?
[The way he says it, it almost sounds like a challenge. He has no idea how serious Riku's reason's for hiding where he's been are.]
no subject
It was pretty much an empty space. Nobody, but me and nothingness. [And well, tons and tons of rather familiar rubble - but there is really no need to mention that, right?] I didn't even know that so much time passed while I was there.
[Though admittedly he prefers a month in the wastelands to say... spending the entire month asleep.]
