But Riku's asleep. And, heh, it's getting dark.
[And any good islander knows you don't swim alone, especially at night, especially in unknown waters.]
We could-, hmmm...

We could go and see what's in that tower near the thermal pools.
K-Kairi. D-don't go out in the lake. Please. I-it's dangerous! There's a monster that lives in the bottom of the lake and it...i-it killed a friend of mine already. So please be careful if you go anywhere near there!
[A sigh of relief.]
Yes. Please. Anything is better than... than being alone tonight.

I--I--I don't know. I-is there anything you want to do in particular? I-if not, we can brainstorm ideas.
