RIKU → first dawn || video

[resipiscent]

[There's a long-haired boy on the video, glancing around as he walks. He's checking out the city streets, but his brightly-coloured eyes keep flicking up to the sky -- it's been a while since he's seen a real one.]

Uh, can someone tell me where this is?

[One hand comes up to rub at a black collar on a scarred throat -- the hand is made of some kind of silvery metal, and the scar on his throat is horizontal, like it was slit.]

Not F3 or something stupid like that?

... yeah, I can do that.

[He feels like it's obvious to him now that there might not be a point in trying someday to reach out to Joshua. Riku isn't going to bother him if he doesn't want him to, after all. Sora can make friends with anyone, but... that's his talent, not Riku's.

After another moment he nods quietly, unsure whether to hang up or not. He's pretty sure Josh doesn't want to talk to him, but... he does feel bad.]

... sorry.

... Quit apologizing. It's fine. We have our differences, and there isn't anything wrong with that. This is a truce between us, alright?

[He gives Riku a bit of a frustrated look, before his expression just shifts into a tired one.]

Whenever I call a truce, I mean it.

[He's not going to say so, but it seemed that half of the time he called truces with people, he ended up being good friends with them... Joshua really can't see that happening between the two of them, and he doesn't really want to try to.]

... Okay. If you're sure, then I'm willing.

[He has no idea about that, but it just seems that that's how things work sometimes, isn't it?]

Then it's settled... We'll talk to Kairi and Naminé about it, then, and get it arranged. Thank you, for working this out with me.

[Joshua just looks away and shakes his head.] We'll talk later... [He shuts off the feed only a moment later.]
