Characters: Riku (justabignobody), Terra (earthshards) and everyone else who's blowing off steam that night
Setting: all across the tower, night time after the Q&A
Format: Go for whatever you want! /o/
Summary: After that little 'Q&A', Riku needs to blow off some steam. He's unlikely to be the only one.
Warnings: Violence, fighting, monsters all across the board!!!

[Well... for all that this meeting earlier in the day had been informative(-ish), thanks to certain situations with certain administrators, Riku really feels like punching something at the end of it, frustration and anger making his finger twitch restlessly.

It's really only good that he's long stopped acting on that kind of feelings, has learned to channel them into Darkness, into power, instead. It's really a good thing that the Tower provides them with outlets. And that Riku doesn't have a shift to work tonight.

Highwind is fluttering just over his shoulder, chirping softly as he walks down the stairs, hand tight around his Keyblade.

It's time to take out some monsters.]

[alephbet]

I'm not mad.

[And hugs make everything better anyway.]

[technologic]

But it looked like I might've upset you anyway. [Hugs are great. Which is why she hugs him for a bit longer before pulling away.] But next time I'll accept your help.

[alephbet]

Thank you.

[And a brief peck before he parts from her and starts heading upstairs.]

[technologic]

[It takes April a minute to follow behind him, considering her brain stuttered to a stop, but she soon follows, face bright red.

And it's the maze floor next. April pouts a bit at this.] ... Have I mentioned that I'm kinda bad at mazes?

[alephbet]

I'm good at them, don't worry. I've had to deal with way too many at home.

[technologic]

Then I'll rely on you... And we're gonna have to be careful to avoid the man-eating plants.

[alephbet]

Understood.

[He'll carefully lead them through the maze.]

[technologic]

[Following right behind him. And she lets out a loud squeak in surprise when part of the hedge tries to eat her.] Ack-! No, bad hedge!

[alephbet]

[It's time... for some trimming.

Badum tish.]

[technologic]

[Mun was far too amused at that-I mean.

But yes, April will just pull her machete out to slash at another plant that tries to eat her.] Well, at least we haven't come across any monsters yet.

[alephbet]

The plants are bad enough. [Hack and slash!]

[technologic]

Yep! Ah, hey- [Plants, stop trying to eat her coat. You get stabbed for that.] Though we should probably move really quick, just to make sure a monster doesn't find us here.

[alephbet]

Yeah. We'd better hurry. [April gets cut free a little more. And somehow Aleph doesn't lose his way as he leads her through. Visor. I'm totally blaming auto-map.]

[technologic]

[Huzzah for auto-maps April makes sure to stick close to him, though she pauses when she hears something moving around in the hedges.] ... Um. Did you hear that or am I just being paranoid?

[alephbet]

I... heard that. What should we do?

[technologic]

... Keep moving. I'll stick to the back in case anything does try to attack us. We shouldn't be far from the exit, right?

[alephbet]

No, probably not. [Still, he's more on guard than he was before, waiting for something to jump out at him.]

[technologic]

[And just in case, April decides to have some electricity flicker around her, so that she's prepared in case anything jumps out.

Except her powers aren't working. Oops.] ... Aleph, got a problem. Powers are down.

[alephbet]

[Oh. That's bad. Pulling his demons out of the COMP isn't technically a power, so he takes the ones that will fit in the maze out- they can't use their magic but they'll be able to fight physically.] Stay close.

[technologic]

[April regrets ever even thinking that this was too easy, and she's pretty much clinging onto her machete.] I can do that.

[Though the hand reaching out from the hedge wasn't there before, so when April glances back at the hedge, she responds in the appropriate manner of jumping away with a loud squeak.] D-dammit!

[alephbet]

[That hand is getting severed from the wrist. Sorry hand, Aleph doesn't need powers to deal with things like limbs.]

[technologic]

[And the rest of the arm just kinda... stays there. April, meanwhile, will just quickly move away from her hiding place behind Aleph.] S-s-s-sorry.

[alephbet]

It's all right. Let's hurry to the exit.

[technologic]

O-okay, I'll be right behind you. [Not gonna stick around to see the rest of what that arm is attached to nope.]

[alephbet]

[Yeah, probably a good idea. Aleph makes a very quick exit.]
