@skybrightâ.   â   from here.
â weâve come a long way, you and i. â
the sun is setting in twilight town , just as it always is. the beach here is different than the shores of the islands riku grew up on , the water is warm even now & the tide never quite makes it to his toes. sand is stuck to the bottom of his feet & the back of his legs & somehow , riku is sure it found a way into his hair , which he hates the thought of digging out later.
but , he thinks , it could be pouring rain , or they could even be surrounded by heartless & thereâs still no other place heâd rather be , because heâs here , alive , with someone he cares about & who cares about him.
itâs almost funny to him , that itâs roxas sitting in the sand next to him , popsicle half hanging out of his mouth as they watch the waves. rikuâs expression is amused , humming as he looks over at roxas , popsicle now in hand as blue eyes meet his , & rikuâs almost surprised to find his heart flutter a bit.
weâve come a long way, you and i.Â
â to say the least. â
riku gives a quiet snort in response , shrugging as he leans on his hands , watching the sunïżœïżœ  inch below the waves that roll in. he certainly never expected to have this with roxas: holding hands when they walk through town , finding any & every reason to be close. because if you had asked him a year ago , the person riku wouldâve wanted next to him was someone else entirely.
but things are different now , & rikuâs almost happier itâs not sora next to him as he brushes roxasâ arm with his own.Â
â i didnât think weâd get here, like this. âÂ
under the sand , riku settles his hand over roxasâ , not quite holding it , but not so far from it. & it wasnât as though riku had ever been immune to seeing bits & pieces of sora in roxas , but they werenât the same , & maybe thatâs for the better . his fingers curl around the blondeâs hand gently , looking at him only out of the corners of his eyes , smile softening slightly. riku was never good with his emotions , always feeling too much or too little , destructive in both his anger & his care. it was no secret that balance was not his strong suit.
perhaps it made sense he wound up like this , with someone just as unbalanced as him.
â not that iâm complaining about it. âÂ
if he can tell the slight color in roxasâ cheeks is from more than the sun , riku doesnât say anything , not right now. he closes his eyes for a moment , listening to the waves crashing on the shore & the sea breeze blow around them.Â
â another year like this....i donât think itâd be so bad. âÂ
heâs grinning now , & fixes his gaze on roxas fully , who looks away in embarrassment . itâs so very roxas of him that riku canât help but laugh , the hold on roxasâ hand loosening slightly , if only for riku to lace their fingers together. itâs adorable , & riku canât help the urge to lean over & press a kiss to his cheek with that same grin , giving his hand a squeeze.Â
â câmon, we should probably head back. i donât wanna think about all the sand stuck to me anymore. âÂ
no , riku thinks , another year of this might not be so bad after all.

@lghtwithinâ.   â   from here.
â please don't go. â
& oh , if he had one weakness in this world , it was sora. sora , with big sad eyes asking him to stay , & sora with a kind , bright smile dragging him out to play , & sora , reaching for his hand when he was shrouded in darkness .
if there was anything in this world that could ruin him , it was this.Â
â sora... âÂ
carefully , as if the boy would break under his touch , riku grabs his wrist , that same gentle smile crossing his face , a little bittersweet , like a cup of coffee without enough sugar. he is no gentle thing , but he has always made himself whatever sora needs.
& if sora needs him to stay , heâll stay.Â
â iâm not going anywhere, promise. âÂ
& that smile stays on his face until in turns to something bitter in his mouth , until the coffeeâs gone cold & not worth drinking , until the grounds are all that left , bitter & clumping in your teeth , a hard to swallow mouthful like him.
â iâm here, whatever you need. â

@lghtwithinâ.   â   from here.
â itâs okay to cry, you know. â
â iâm not crying. âÂ
itâs the same tone of voice he used to give the other kids when theyâd make fun of him , or the old ladies on their porch when he walked home alone from the pier , or soraâs mom when she used to pull him into one of those tight warm hugs because she knew he was sad about his parents being gone again , even though they were gone all the time.
even now , he wipes at his eyes with his arm furiously , sniffling as he draws his knees up to his chest. thereâs a hole in his chest that has ached & ached & something dark has come crawling out of it , chewing on his ribs until they break under the strain. heâs been alone before , he was always alone for the longest time , before sora came & suddenly he was never alone.
& then he was alone again , with a sora-shaped hole in his heart that he never quite knew how to fill. all the bad parts of him had come flooding out , turned into a violent & cruel beast with a taste for blood. so he does not cry , he holds in every tear heâs ever wanted to shed in hopes that it might kill this ugly thing inside him , the parasite that consumes every good part of him , if any ever existed. he had always been sharp edges , blunt words , a rattlesnake trod upon , unsure what to do when someone came that close & didnât hurt him.
he doesnât look at sora when he lowers his arm , chin pressed against his knees as he look out at the ocean , tied-up hair blowing in the breeze.
â i just missed you. â

â what got into you all of a sudden ?? âÂ
itâs quite bold of sora to assume riku ever saw himself getting married , let alone had a dream wedding really. itâd be a lie to say he hadnât thought about it , but still , thatâs an odd question , even for sora. taking a handful of sand & letting it run through his fingers , riku sighs , cheeks a little pink as he looks towards the ocean.
â i guess...iâd like to get married here, on the islands. i think itâd be nice. â

hmmmmm HMMMM the way riku just. reaches out to try and touch the illusion of sora in traverse town....hmm yes iâm going to be completely normal about this
0 notes
POKEMON VERSE.
Riku is, without a doubt, a strong Trainer. So strong, in fact, that even though he failed to defeat the Champion, he was offered a spot in the Elite Four, as a Dark type master. More than half of his team is made of Dark type Pokemon, and his team is incredibly strong in its own right. He gives his all in every battle, and leaves nothing on the line. At age 18, he is currently one of the youngest members of the Elite Four.
When heâs not running himself into the ground working for the League, Riku likes to travel. His team is as follows.
ABSOL - LVL 69 â - The first Pokemon Riku ever met on his journey. She found him shortly before disaster struck his home, in the form of a terrible storm. Despite her presence, the town was utterly unprepared, and nearly wiped out, but over the years, has managed to rebuild. Since that day, Absol has been by his side. Her strength serves as a testament to Rikuâs own, and she trusts his judgement completely. Besides being one of his strongest Pokemon, Absol is also his closest companion.
MURKROW - LVL 68 â - Murkrow, or Murky as heâs affectionate called, was a trade that Riku hadnât thought too much about. Heâs stubborn as hell, and never wanted to listen to Riku in the beginning, until his strength was proven and respect was earned. Murky was never treated badly, and never is, but heâs quite rude on occasion, and is often chided for it by his master. However, in battle, the little bird is a force to be reckoned with, the quickest of Rikuâs team. They may not always see eye to eye, but Murkrow is loyal when it counts, and follows Rikuâs commands without hesitation.
HOUNDOOM - LVL 69 â - Houndoom is a good friend to RIku, although somewhat flighty and easily distracted. He means well, however, and Riku knows that at his core, heâs trying hard, and thatâs what counts. They met when he was still a Houndour still, being chased off by a group of Wingull for accidentally disturbing them. Riku originally didnât want him on his team, but Houndour refused to stop following him, often close behind his heels wherever he went. Theyâre bonded quite thoroughly now, and Riku canât imagine him not being a part of his team anymore.
INKAY - LVL 67 â - This little guy was caught while Riku was fishing, but not in the water. He had decided to take up residence under Rikuâs jacket, and got so startled he sprayed ink on it, and then began to cry. Heâs timid in nature, especially around strangers, and has a tendency to hide in Absolâs fur when he can. When scared or provoked, he tends to spew ink thatâs difficult to get rid of. Heâs not a strong battler, but heâs quick and clever, and outsmarts opponents when following Rikuâs commands, which he always does.
DRAGONITE - LVL 70 â - She was a gift from Sora as a Dratini. Sheâs overly friendly, going so far as to crush people in hugs upon meeting them. Affectionate and kind, she relishes in attention in the form of cuddles, head scratches, and baths. Not to be underestimated, though, as her loving and friendly nature belies brute strength in battle. Sheâs never used in his official League matches, but she loves the thrill of battle. Besides Absol, Dragonite is Rikuâs go-to Pokemon when battling outside of the League, and she loves to fly anytime she can.Â
RIOLU - LVL 15 â - Hatched from an Egg Riku received after a match, Riolu is is fiesty, and often prefers to do her own thing instead of following any commands. Sheâs stubborn, arrogant, and altogether a pain in the ass to train. However, Riku has no plans to part with her, nor give up on her, though sheâs quite the headache for him outside of work. That said, she is easily won over with berries and treats, adoring the Poke Puffs of Kalos above all else. She isnât seen in real battle because of her low level, but sheâs getting stronger with every day Riku works with her, and although small, thereâs a bond they share that can never be broken.
