[At first, Riku wasn't going to say anything. But being that he is, in fact, an arrogant awesome brat, he can't resist. So when he speaks, you can hear the smirk in his voice.]

Hey. Nice job yesterday, guys. That was a pretty good game.

[And he's even being sincere! How about that.



Riku's a bit bruised up from his bout with Pamela; you won't be able to see the long bruise on his side from where she hit him, but the two dark stripes on his neck from her broom are readily visible, and Riku's not making any attempts to hide them at all. These are his battle scars, his badge of honor; they're something that tells the world that he is one badass kid. Or something, who even really knows.

Riku won't be taking a break though; the game might be over but he's still on the move. You'll be able to find him all over the ship today--he'll be in the forest on deck 3 first, just wandering the forest a bit, then he'll be on deck 12 looking through the luggage for anything that might be helpful in building a tree-house. (Hey, maybe next it'll be a little boat they can sail around the caverns! That might be fun...) He'll be checking out the statue on deck 18 (cautiously, though, things aren't always what they seem), wandering around the flower-field to see if there's actually anything interesting (hey, graves? Hmmm...), and of course hitting up the Coffee Shop for breakfast and later on The Cool and Kuma-Ko for lunch and dinner.

Feel free to run into him anywhere; winning capture the flag has put him in a pretty good mood!]

Yes but, it brought back some unpleasant memories.

[She finally realizes what she's saying and her ears fold back.]

I'm sorry, you probably don't want to hear any of this. I'm distracting you.

[oathbreakers]

[Riku's going to ignore that last line. But he isn't looking at her as he responds.]

Who knows? He probably didn't know. You should talk to him.

[Blunt? Yup, that sounds about right.]

[There was a nod but she brought her knees to her chin.]

I can't bring myself to tell him, it might upset him. I don't want to do that.

So you'd rather mope on your own. The problem won't go away if you don't do anything about it.

[It's tough love. Really, it is.]

;_;

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[That's pretty close to the truth actually.

She lowered her head and sighed.]

I know that. It could get worse and I might turn in to a monster.

[oathbreakers]

[Oh, Riku's looking at her now. He's got four words.]

What did you say?

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

That I could become a monster?

[She looked up with a frown as she explained.]

The Twilight God, Promathia; cursed the children of the Dawn Goddess, Altana; with a negative trait to their personality. If that certain trait gets the better of them, they can transform in to a monster or if fail to face their inner beast after accepting the conditions of being a Blue Mage and become what their magic came from.

[oathbreakers]

[Yeah, okay, so most of that? Flew right over Riku's head. But he got the main part of it, the part that's important.]

So. If you let yourself sit around feeling sorry for yourself too much, you'll turn into a monster?

[Well, that's one way to keep people from turning into buckets of angst, he supposes...]

Well, then you know what you need to do.

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, that was bound to happen.]

Or letting one kind of emotion build up for too long. Envy is the bane of my race.

[Her ears flickered a little.]

I believe it was arrogance for yours, so be careful.

OH SNAP XDDDDD /can't stop laughing now

[oathbreakers]

[Whoops. In warning him of being arrogant, you've triggered it! Riku glances over to her, raising an eyebrow.]

Thanks for the concern. But I'll be fine.

[He always is.]

WAIT WRONG RACE! XD

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

Wait, no I got that wrong. That was for Elvaans.

[She scratched her ear.]

Apathy. Yes, that sounds right.

[She sighed.]

I'm sorry, for giving you the wrong one.

OH BUT IT WAS SO -PERFECT- XDDDD

[oathbreakers]

...it's fine.

[Yeah, okay, he's still a little miffed at the arrogance quip. He'll get over it.]

Anyways, that's not important. You know what you've gotta do, right?

I KNOW! If he had longer ears!

[rdmcatpaw.livejournal.com]

[Another nod.]

Yes, I do. Thank you.

[A small smile.]

If you need any help, just yell for me.

[oathbreakers]

[He'll give her another one of his smirks before climbing back up to his feet.]

I'll keep that in mind.

[And with that, Riku's heading out.]
