[Lea still isn't convinced that this place is a different world. After all, until he woke up here, the idea of there being other worlds was just part of a children's story. No, this is definitely Something Else. Whether that Thing is kidnapping or just the most elaborate prank ever pulled, he doesn't know.
[Whatever the case, he's not one to sit around and wait for answers to be provided. So he heads off to explore this weird castle-that's-not-the-castle. And it's during this exploration that he sees some really tall guy.]
Hey!
[Perfect! Someone to ask questions! He hurries right on over.]
[There's something very familiar in how quickly Lea bounces back. The corner of Riku's mouth twitches upward, but as he answers the question, that disappears.]
I was looking for a girl named Xion.
She had something important I needed to get back for a friend.

You live here?

When I remember, I'll let you know.
In the meantime, what have you found out about this place? All I really remember is waking up for the first time here myself.

[Despite the subject at hand, he grins again.]
Guess we're both havin' memory problems.

If what I recall is true, there isn't much to remember. One moment, you're on your own world, and the next, you're waking up here.
This doesn't seem like it was a good time to show up, though.
[Why? He knows there's a reason, but he can't quite remember what would make this a bad time.
Maybe it's simply because he's still having to readjust, himself.]

[His tone may be a teasing one, but really.]
But that sounds 'bout like what happened to me. Hangin' out with Isa one second, then bam!
[He makes it sound far more exciting than just, 'I opened my eyes and was very lost.']

[He'd been searching for Xion when he was brought here. The interruption isn't exactly a welcome one.]
So you've left people behind, too.

[His bright expression begins to wane.]
Keep expectin' to find him somewhere. He was right next to me.
[After a few seconds, he quite literally shrugs it off.]
Betcha he'll turn up soon.
Reply
[So long as he continued to believe...]
There are more people turning up all the time. He could be one of them.

He's gotta be. If he's not here already, it won't be long.
So, who'd you leave behind?
