[Oh, hey. Looks like somebody's figured out how to work the watch because there's a shot of this silver-haired teen. He grins at the camera, before leaning back against the edge of one of the buildings.]

So, I'm looking for a dork with spiky hair and ridiculous, yellow shoes. Kind of dense, goes by Sora. Chances here, he's lost. Sora never was the best with directions. And in a place like this, he could use all the help he could get.

So if any of you have seen him, do me a favor and point me in the right direction. Somebody's gotta keep an eye on him, after all.

Oh yeah, and anyone got any suggestions on places to scope out? This city's huge, and I've barely scratched the surface so far.

Sora's here and quite safe, don't worry.

...He's also older than I expected.

[Sigh. Kairi, look at your poor, disgruntled, mini-biffle.]

That other me even pointed out how much stronger he's supposed to be.

Yeah, I imagine it's probably a big shock for you.

Sorry that Riku is being a big dumb jerk to you-- [srry masterku] -- but you gotta imagine this is just as weird for him as it is for you, and he probably doesn't really know what to say. And you gotta remember, Sora is only stronger than you right now because he's practiced a lot over the years-- you can be just as strong if you put your mind to it.

That still doesn't give him an excuse to act all high and mighty. Just because he's older than me doesn't make him better, and lording everything over me is hardly gonna win him any points.

And he's being so vague, too.

[...Yeah, he's just gonna. Seethe a bit.]

I agree, his rudeness is very out of line. But you gotta admit, Riku, that maybe you weren't helping the situation too much with your responses?

[Said in the calmest way possible with an attempt to be equally nice to both sides]

Well, what else was I supposed to do? Just sit there and nod?

[Grumblegrumble.]

[princessofheart]

Of course not. But as I said, things are just as weird for him as it is for you. It's gonna take some time for everyone to adjust to this world and its new standards-- Rome wasn't built in a day. But maybe you two could try to make it just a little bit easier for each other?

[islandshore]

And how am I supposed to do that?

[Because really, Kairi. With his attitude, how can he just...?

Sigh. This is a mess.]

[princessofheart]

Well, maybe start by taking his suggestions to heart a little more? He has years worth of memories of things you haven't experienced yet, and I'm sure he just wants to make life a little easier for you than it was for him in the end.

Could've fooled me.

[Guh.]

But I guess I'll try. Still doubt it'll be easy, though.
