All the pieces lie where they fell
Who: Riku, later on Kairi and whoever would like to join him/them
What: Riku can't stand the waiting, so he wanders the city instead
Where: all over Promenade
When: backdated to Saturday and Sunday
Warnings: None in particular, though Riku is going to be extremely anti-social with maybe an occasional outburst of anger and frustration
[Riku isn't entirely sure if he is awake or asleep.
He doesn't care much either way.
Not as long as there is that terribly hole in his heart that keeps him from forgetting that one fact.
Sora is gone. Dead.
He isn't sure how he'd actually gotten to where ever he is now; his mind, his memories are too much a blur. He knows he went out to fight again after; but aside of that...
Maybe he's dead too, he thinks even hopes, maybe.
Except that he might have a vague memory of Aqua picking him up and when he focuses just a little more he can sense Kairi's light not too far away from this room.
Turning his head, he can see the first rays of sunlight fall through the window into the room, dawn is breaking for the first time in almost a week.
Somehow Riku can't bring himself to feel happy about that.
All he feels is suffocating numbness in his chest, tightening around his heart.
(He can't shake the thought; Sora is gonegonegone and he is so very, very useless.).
A moment later he gets up, grabbing his cloak; he needs to get out, he can't stay, can't keep lying around, not when he feels like he can't breath at all.
He needs to get out and away, find a place where he can actually think and figure himself out.
Just before he leaves the room, his glance falls upon his mask, frowning at it- on one hand he couldn't care less about the rules of this world... on the other, it's not worth starting trouble over; especially when he doesn't feel like dealing with anyone anyways.
He leaves the castle a moment later, starting to roam the city aimlessly.]
