✧ ✦ ✧ ― "Is there anything else around here you'd like some help with?" He had ran into the spunky ninja again somehow. " I could lend a spare hand. "
These days, it Feels like he's got to keep moving, gotta keep busy. Often he'd drop by to check on things with the Restoration Committee to see if there's any new developments with their search, but Riku finds himself staying a while to assist and help out.
“Sometimes you care so much for somebody that other feelings disappear. And then, there’s no room for fear or doubt.”
“Riku. All my strength came from them… Alone, I’m worthless.”
What’s wrong, Riku? Are you tired? Do you need a break? We can stop.

❛ life is a journey to be experienced, not a problem to be solved. ❜ From Mickey
✧ ✦ ✧ ― What? Riku stares after the King who was walking ahead of him. Trust Mickey to say something sagely in this circumstance.
“But your majes- Mickey, how can you say that? At a time like this...” He’s right though. He was always right. Back when they found themselves in Castle Oblivion, the reason why he didn’t see any other living soul in the memories of the Worlds he’s been in (apart from all the Heartless) was because he never truly cared much for exploring them, let alone making connections with the inhabitants within. He’s regretted that now.
Though, its not like he had a choice in the matter. The instance he was able to leave the Islands, Riku felt like he hit the ground running. He barely had any time to stop and smell the flowers. There was always a task at hand, a goal to be reached, find the Princesses of Heart, find Kairi, atone for his mistakes, defeat the Organization, defeat Xemnas... There were always problems that needed to be solved.
And now... they needed to find Sora. It’s almost been a year and it feels like they were getting nowhere. They were reaching dead ends.
Riku stops following Mickey for a moment before sighing heavily to let his tense shoulders go slack. He stares up at the sky, forlorn.
“ *sigh* Maybe you’re right Mickey... maybe I do need to slow down. ”

“we’ll be friends forever, won’t we, Riku?”
✧ ✦ ✧ ― Riku blinks at him for one incredulous moment. That had caught him off guard.
If he were younger, he would have snarkily replied without skipping a beat: ‘What kind of a question is that? Of course we would, Sora. We’ll be together forever. No matter what!’
His young, brash and foolish self would be none the wiser. How naïve and self-assured he was back then. He knows now that that answer... can’t necessarily be true anymore. Nothing is set in stone. So many things have changed ― there’s tectonic shifts, things drifting apart, and there are also things you kinda have to grow out of.
No, he’s not going to answer in that way. Besides, he shouldn’t patronize Sora. Not when he asks him such a vulnerable question this way, so gives this a thought.
At this, Riku’s eyes soften and he gives Sora a reassuring smile, placing a hand on top of his friend’s spikey head.
“ We will. ” Riku nods, “ Or at least, we can try our best to be. " There really was nothing for it. “ But you can always count on me to have your back. No matter what, Sora. ”

❛ but the most important thing is, even if we are apart, i’ll always be with you. ❜ ❛ you’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. ❜ ❛ it never hurts to keep looking for sunshine. ❜ ❛ any day spent with you is my favorite day. so, today is my new favorite day. ❜ ❛ how lucky am i to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard. ❜ ❛ could be worse. not sure how, but it could be. ❜ ❛ after all, one can’t complain. i have my friends. ❜ ❛ some people care too much. i think it’s called love. ❜ ❛ the things that make me different are the things that make me. ❜ ❛ what i like best is just doing nothing. ❜ ❛ promise you won’t forget me ever? ❜ ❛ a little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the dfference. ❜ ❛ it isn’t much good having anything exciting if you can’t share it with somebody. ❜ ❛ i’m never afraid with you. ❜ ❛ a day without laughter is a day wasted. ❜ ❛ if there ever comes a day when we can’t be together, keep me in your heart, i’ll stay there forever. ❜ ❛ when all else fails, take a nap. ❜ ❛ as soon as i saw you, i knew an adventure was going to happen. ❜ ❛ love is taking a few steps backward maybe even more to give way to the happiness of the person you love. ❜ ❛ promise me that you’ll never forget me because if i thought you would, i’d never leave. ❜ ❛ people say nothing is impossible, but i do nothing every day. ❜ ❛ i used to believe in forever but forever’s too good to be true. ❜ ❛ a hug is always the right size. ❜ ❛ life is a journey to be experienced, not a problem to be solved. ❜ ❛ we’ll be friends forever, won’t we, [name]? ❜ ❛ if people are upset because you’ve forgotten something, console them by letting them know you didn’t forget ― you just weren’t remembering. ❜ ❛ sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart. ❜ ❛ it is more fun to talk with someone who doesn’t use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like ‘what about lunch ?’ ❜ ❛ if you live to be a hundred, i hope i live to be a hundred minus one day, so that i never have to live a day without you. ❜ ❛ what could be more important than a little something to eat? ❜ ❛ you can’t stay in your corner waiting for others to come to you. you have to go to them sometimes. ❜ ❛ don’t underestimate the value of doing nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can’t hear, and not bothering. ❜ ❛ what’s wrong with knowing what you know now and not knowing what you don’t know until later? ❜ ❛ i did know once, only i’ve sort of forgotten. ❜ ❛ those who are clever, who have a brain, never understand anything. ❜ ❛ if it’s not here, that means it’s out there. ❜ ❛ nobody can be uncheered with a balloon. ❜ ❛ i’m not lost for i know where i am. but however, where i am may be lost. ❜ ❛ i wasn’t going to eat it, i was just going to taste it. ❜ ❛ they’re funny things, accidents. you never have them till you’re having them. ❜

✧ ✦ ✧ ― The presence of an enemy lets him summon his Keyblade without hesitation by his outstretched arm. Riku could feel the thrum of the handle when the Nobody approached... and yet--
“ What does that even mean? ” for a moment he paused, a confused frown creasing his young face with a tilt of his head. His blade tipped low when his gut tells him there was a lack of any aggression coming from the other, thus losing any necessity to defend or retaliate.
He waves away his weapon then crosses his arms. “ What are you even looking for? ”
Should he be suspicious? If an organization member was looking for... whatever it is that they’re looking for, then it must be important. Right?
a DREAM is a wish your HEART makes~ ☆
