[ - Forward Dated To Saturday Morning | Filtered From Bubbles - ]

[There's a stillness that fills the room as the PCD turns on, the camera aimed directly at the bed located in a room at the clinic. The sheets are stained and bloody, an obvious sign that someone who had been gravely hurt had once laid there. However hurt they might have once been,

[Usually, that accusation of idiocy would net Riku a sharp retort and probably a comeback insult. The fact that Sephiroth just takes it without comment may be a hint that he's not at his best.]

It's... a long story. I'm already in the clinic if you want to hear it in person.

[He's silent for a long moment, because he really. Does not want to see you right now. But he knows he has to.]

Are you done being a raving lunatic?

[Voice/Same filter]

[argentimperator]

[Honestly? Sephiroth is mostly expecting Riku to tell him to go to hell. Vincent's talk about how Riku wouldn't hate him didn't exactly convince him.]

Yes. I broke free when I realized... what I had done. [That he had killed Riku. His brother. The most important person in his life. Someone he loves, even if he'll never use the word.] I'm sorry.

[reflectivedawn]

[They're already in hell. Hard to get anymore hellish than this.]

So it wasn't a meaningless sacrifice.

[Welp. He supposed you giving his death validation is worth something.]

You'll get forgiveness when I get my explanation.

[She's already seen the post but is disregarding it completely (after letting out a half-breath half-sob she didn't even realize she was holding of course). She's in the clinic, anyway, probably occupying herself helping Unohana or checking up on Inuyasha down the hall...]

[She has the keyblade with her, actually, held loosely in her grip. But before she opens the door, she leans it quietly outside in the hall. She has things to say to him, and the keyblade will not be a distraction. The doorknob twists, she steps inside and closes the door behind her, silent, hair in her eyes.]

...you're back, huh?

[coraltaijiya]

[Silent for another beat, before she marches up to him abruptly, and sends a slap flying across his face. It's lighter than she'd treat Miroku to, but it probably doesn't feel any more merciful in his current state--]

That is for trapping me in a box for hours--

[Another one on the other cheek (so much for that pretty face, Riku)--]

That is for dying on me, you idiot--

[offline] done ♥

[coraltaijiya]

[--and then, promptly after the ringing slaps, she has to make a conscious effort not to throw herself at him, but the hug she springs on him is still tellingly fierce and probably not the most comfortable.]

[It takes a moment for her to be able to articulate the last, quieter part.]

And this is for dying on me, too... dumbass...

[He had gotten used to the sound of the door opening by now, each one helping him to re-atone his skills in sensing the aura's of those who were closes to him. So when it opened this time, he was hit with the other's, full of light but tainted with darkness, one that he had learned and had stayed with him ever since.

He could feel the keyblades presence, finally, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He would listen to whatever she had to say, glad that he didn't have to go back out and look for it.]

Yeah, it looks lik--

[She waited until Ukitake finished and and went to back to bed to rest before heading to the room herself. She does look tired as she entered, but not really physically. Her aura might feel a little off. She's had a lot to do.]

Welcome back, Riku-san.

[reflectivedawn]

[He wasn't surprised to see her. In fact, he had been waiting for her to come in and yell at him, just as he had been Sango.]

Thanks.

[bunny_flower]

[But she doesn't yell. She just looks ... very, very tired. Two of her children and other people she loves got involved in this mess, and she couldn't do anything to stop it.]

How are you feeling?

[Offline]

[reflectivedawn]

Sore, mostly.

[Empty, hollow.But he fails to mention these things. Mostly on purpose.]

[ff_red_turk]

[He hasn't hacked anything, he's just basically been telling Seph that he'll drag him to youkicking and screaming if he has to.]

I'll make sure he comes see you.

[Who 'he' is goes without saying.]

[Video]

[reflectivedawn]

[He pauses.]

Not without someone else here.

[And it won't be you, Vincent.]

[ff_red_turk]

[You know, he could have just said 'I told you so', Riku. He tried to tell you not to go and get yourself killed, you didn't listen. The man tried to save your life, and that's how you thank him.

... But right Sephiroth is a bigger concern to Vincent than anything else, and he's never been big on people being grateful to him anyway.]

If that's what you want.

[And if he's not in the room, he'll be hovering nearby. He's stalking Sephiroth for the foreseeable future.]

[Private//Unhackable]

It wasn't him doing those things. Hear him out.

[Video//Private//Unhackable]

[reflectivedawn]

[Sorry if he's not really thankful to someone who thinks his death was for nothing when he did what you couldn't.]

I'd rather not die twice in a row, thanks.

[And then he pauses, because really, he already knew that.]

Forgiveness is given when it's asked for. Make sure you tell him that.

[checkmychainyo]

Good to see you've recovered.

[voice]

[reflectivedawn]

[Hello person he doesn't know.]

Thanks.

[voice//private//unhackable]

[checkmychainyo]

Sango tells me you fought Sephiroth.

[voice//private//unhackable]

[reflectivedawn]

[He's beginning to think Sango's told everyone by now.]

Something like that.
