[idealistic]

This way!

[ he points in the same direction that Kaneis gestured to with his thumb, waiting for the other to to start walking before he moves as well.

and because he's actually an excitable puppy and curiosity bit him in the ass, he can't help but ask: ]

So how long you guys been friends for?

[wilder]

Ouch. Thanks Riku.

[SIGH. But the insult rolls of his back really. He starts walking further in the direction.]

Uh, couple months now...? It's hard to keep track in space.

[With...THIS Riku anyway. It was complicated. ]

[limitstorm]

[ come on kaneis you know he's a great big tsundere

riku starts to think, making a surprised noise when kaneis replies. ]

Somehow, it feels longer...

[ he's not quite sure why, either. ]

[idealistic]

[ that's a little surprising. only a couple of months?

then again, Lloyd and Zelos only needed a couple of weeks before they hit it off, so he's probably not one to talk. ]

Seriously? It definitely sounds longer. [ maybe being in space really did screw with their internal clock. ]

[wilder]

[He rubs the back of his neck.]

Well, I knew a Riku before- they were a roommate of a friend. So maybe it seems longer because I already knew some stuff about him.

It was just lucky that our Riku here didn't find that fact creepy.

[limitstorm]

[ ...

riku makes a face. ]

Now that you mention it...

[idealistic]

You knew another guy named Riku?

[ does this involve dimension shenanigans again ]

[wilder]

[He points a finger at Riku] Hey now, you had your chance when we first talked. No take-backs now.

[And he glances at Lloyd]

Yeah. More...alternate dimension stuff, I guess. You get that a lot.

[limitstorm]

[ he sighs and shrugs. ]

I already trust you, no point in takebacks.

Apparently we met on a different world--I've never been there. Unless it's in my future.

[ time to play: time travel or alternate universes??? ]

[idealistic]

This is already confusing me...

[ and they didn't even delve into things fully. what happened to life when it was simple? ]

So... you met Kaneis already... but you also didn't?

[wilder]

[Argh that T word again, he glances at his feet- and pretends to just huff at Riku confusing Lloyd MORE]

Argh- don't go throwing time travel theories in too, Riku. You'll hurt him before the bears even get a chance.

[limitstorm]

[ riku makes a noise and then sighs. ]

Alright, alright. I'll figure out a way to explain it later. Trying to make illusions on the go isn't too safe.

[idealistic]

Illusions?

[ whup-- interest piqued. ]

[wilder]

[He gives Riku an expected look. ITS ALL ON YOU BRO]

1/2

[limitstorm]

[ he looks at kaneis to expl--

wha

oh god really

fuck ]

2/2

[limitstorm]

[ dear light why

riku runs a hand through his hair slowly, ending with him rubbing the back of his neck. ]

Little ones. Not enough to be dangerous--like... magic models. My Master taught me how, in case I need to explain stuff to people.

[idealistic]

[ do you see those stars in his eyes, Riku? because they're definitely there, brightening the more he explains. ]

Really? You can do that kind of stuff?!

[ THAT IS AWESOME RIKU YOU'RE SO AWESOME ]

That is so cool! You have to show me sometime!

[wilder]

[He gives a nod]

It does sound pretty cool.

[limitstorm]

[ as riku's shoulders hunch, his face slooowly turns bright red, hands in his pockets. ]

I-it's not that impressive.

[idealistic]

Of course it is! I never heard of anyone who could make their own illusions.

[ did anyone else forget that they're supposed to be on the job? because Lloyd sure did. ]

Is it like summoning?

[wilder]

[He gives a sigh at Lloyd; nevermind being distracted from the job as well]

Oh c'mon- unless these illusions are living creatures, I doubt it's summoning.

[limitstorm]

Aren't you guys on a job?

[ exasperated attempt to divert attention, get! ]

[idealistic]

[ now see, Lloyd was about to argue that he thought it was LIKE summoning not that it WAS summoning (Riku didn't mention making any sort of pacts so he knows it's not summoning DUH) until Riku spoke up. ]

Guh-- I-I know that! [ lmao OOPS? ]

How far is that mine shaft again?

[wilder]

[-!!]

Oh! Right! That!

[TOTALLY PROFESSIONAL HERE YEP YEP]

Uh...I think it shouldn't be far now. They said due west- [a beat] This is west right?

[limitstorm]

[ ... sigh. ]

You're both hopeless.

[ riku stops, closing his eyes and tipping his chin down as he focuses. they aren't too far from the city... are they headed west away from it? with a quiet grunt, he opens an eye and peers around them. ]

We're more northwest, but we're on the right track.
