4th wall - voice/action;

[stilldontgotit]

So, is anyone else getting a a feeling of déjà-vu around here? Seems awful late for New Feathers to show up, especially this many.

[A beat.]

But something about this does seem kind of familiar.

[And with that said, Riku will head out to scan the village and see who he can find! It's awfully crowded, so of course he's curious.]

Comments

Tell me if I'm doing anything wrong. o/;;;

[turntodarkness]

[And, in true creeper Ansem fashion, Riku will soon find that someone is following him. It's probably the footsteps giving him away, maybe, if not the scent if Riku can still do that. Where'd he come from? Who knows. Just know he's here and that he's tailing you.]

I'm sure you'll do just fine! No worries.

[stilldontgotit]

[Oh, the combination of the scent and footsteps immediately catch Riku's attention. Immediately, he stops in his tracks and turns around, only to gasp.

Though at first Ansem might catch him staring, his expression quickly turns into a sneer.]

I guess it was only matter of time before you came here.

I hope so!

[turntodarkness]

[Wherever here is. Either way, Ansem is now simply standing there.]

Riku. Are you not happy to see me?

well, I'm a fan of your Ansem either way \o/

[stilldontgotit]

[Tch.]

After everything you've done? Yeah, I'm ecstatic.

F-Ffffff...! /FLAIL!

[turntodarkness]

All that I've done...? Was it not your wishes that guided me?

[A faint, overconfident smirk.]

I speak only truth!

[stilldontgotit]

Because all I wanted was for you to hurt my friends and plunge the worlds into darkness.

[He shakes his head.]

Get real.

./////. Th-Thanks.

[turntodarkness]

You wanted Kairi, so I delivered her. You desired revenge upon Sora, so I gave you the strength. What you did with it was of your own doing. After all...

[He lowers his arms to his sides, giving a low chuckle.]

...I hadn't even revealed myself to you when you raised your sword in an attempt to kill Sora.

No problem!

[stilldontgotit]

[Kill...

That stings like a sword through his chest. He clenches his hands into fists and shuts his eyes.

Deep breaths, and then...]

I wasn't thinking. By then, I was too focused on how I thought he'd abandoned us. Nothing was getting through to him, so I had to use force.

[turntodarkness]

Is that so?

[Riku's taken the bait. It's something far too easy, for too enjoyable.]

Did you not believe in your heart--the same heart that I have spent time in--that you would sooner see them dead than to let anyone else have them?

[stilldontgotit]

I'd sooner die than let anyone hurt them again.

[He's getting increasingly agitated. Good show, Ansem.]

[turntodarkness]

[An amused expression.]

And how far would you go to ensure that they are yours and only yours? Or was the envy I found within your heart false?

[stilldontgotit]

I'm not like that now! I know I was selfish, but all that's changed.

[turntodarkness]

A heart rarely changes in such a drastic manner.

[stilldontgotit]

Rarely isn't the same as never.

[turntodarkness]

And you believe that you are so special to have changed? Such denial...

[stilldontgotit]

Hey, not many people wield both light and darkness, either. I don't know about special, but I've changed, like it or not.
