Christmas... It seems to be a rather special holiday for many of you, much like it is for those in worlds connected to my own.

Merry Christmas, everyone. [...That's what you're supposed to say, right?]



[A while later, ff you're out wandering the village Christmas Eve, you may just notice a familiar figure, however younger they might seem to those who know either of the other two 'Rikus'. Just walking around, covered in layers and still holding onto the journal he arrived with. Though, it is getting rather late... Why is he still outside on tonight of all nights?]

[personafalsify]

... So what are you gonna do here?

[written]

[meteorical]

So does that mean he's stuck in the journal forever like you were?

[action]

[perplexme]

Pretty sure it's still got a spell around it. [What are you talking about, this is totally normal.]

[action]

[encryptedpages]

...Okay. [He has never heard of this kind of magic, so whaaat?]

[written]

[encryptedpages]

Correct.

[action]

[encryptedpages]

Find my own path. [He supposes, because he certainly cannot perform his true purpose here.]

[written]

[meteorical]

...you'll see him again when we get out of here though. And then it's like you're with him forever, aren't you?

[action]

[perplexme]

Long story short, my best friend was almost murdered at our house, so my other best friend asked one of her friends to put a protective spell around our house so nobody could see it unless one of the secret keepers told people where it is.

I see. [Yeah, that earns some semblance of a frown from him. In their own place of residence...?] It's fine, anyway. I can find somewhere.

[And if not, bop him upside the head later.]

[written]

[encryptedpages]

[Hm. Forever replaying the events of the first journey...] Fair enough.

[action]

[perplexme]

But the real question is...are you going to?

[written]

[meteorical]

In the meantime...have you met the real Sora yet?

[action]

[encryptedpages]

...Are you that worried? [He chuckles.]

[written]

[encryptedpages]

No, I haven't.

[written]

[meteorical]

I think he'd be interested in meeting you. You should let him.

[action]

[personafalsify]

... Hmph. Easier said than done. [ But he says it mostly to himself. ]

[action]

[perplexme]

I wouldn't really call this worried, would you?

[action] latest tag ever ;n;

[encryptedpages]

Maybe not. [Man, sarcasm and teasing doesn't work as well when your voice is almost-monotonous.]

[written]

[encryptedpages]

Well, I don't exactly encrypt my entries from him...

[written]

[meteorical]

I'm not talking about just for the sake of getting information from him...

[action] /collects it lovingly anyway

[perplexme]

[A headtilt. But. Oh well.] Knew you'd see it my way.

[action]

[encryptedpages]

Nothing ever is. [He begins to walk away.]

[action] ;u;

[encryptedpages]

[He shrugs.] Guess so.

[written]

[encryptedpages]

[But, Kairi, can't you tell? He's a bit of a shy loner nervous to meet the real counterpart and possibly breaking his brain.]

But becoming friends with him?

[written]

[meteorical]

[Yeah but...but...:(]

Everyone needs friends.
