[A video feed begins, showing a young man with silver hair who is in dire need of a haircut. Judging the from what’s visible of the background, he seems to be up in the tower in the fourth district.]
So, just how many people are stuck dreaming here? I haven’t had much of a look around, but this place seems bigger than I remember.
I haven’t seen any Heartless either, just Nightmares. Does anyone have more information about Dream Eaters in general?
[The barrage of questions seems to be over for a moment, before he remembers one last part.]
Oh, and has anyone seen someone named Sora around? If I fell asleep, he’s probably not far behind.

[5/5 DONE action also chrome is a tit and I lost half this post]
The boy who climbs up not long afterwards, though, is as obvious as ever. If you went back and time and pulled out Riku's reflection from the mirror, he's what you'd get, although he's added a dark jacket to his clothes after the incident with Elsa. The replica is distinctly uncomfortable and trying not to show it - once he's up on the platform, he folds his arms, pretending to be nonchalant.
For all that he was the one who said they needed to talk, he doesn't really know what to say here.]
So... I guess people will stop thinking I'm you now, with you around.
[Awkwaaaaaard.]
you gotta get lazarus, dude
Whoever it is can't be that much of a potential threat, though, so he plays it fairly cool while waiting. The Komory Bat that shows up gets a stare, which then turns back to Riku's identical Spirit, and back again. The figure who follows gets a look that is best left as "uncertain".]
I'm surprised you didn't correct them right off the bat.
[A heavy pause.]
Did you come to talk, or fight?
but I already have lazyrus - //bricked
"Of course" is approximately constant in his internal monologue at the moment.
At the question, the replica affixes Riku with a familiar glare.]
I said talk, didn't I?
[Also there's the fact that you beat him last time and you're older and presumably stronger now. He's inexperienced, not stupid.]
I've corrected everyone I've run into, but that doesn't mean it's going to stop happening.
[That "Not Riku" display name has proven pretty helpful, too.]

[Despite that, he doesn't look particularly guarded. (Riku absently wonders if he really used to be that short)]
Maybe you should announce it publicly. The "Not Riku" might be too subtle.
[That's definitely sarcasm, but light-hearted.]
no subject
The only thing, really.]
Yeah, well. The whole "name" thing is a work in progress.
[As Riku would be able to tell if he locked back in the archives very far.]
no subject
[He is genuinely curious, though it could be mistaken for patronizing. The fact that the replica isn't actively trying to pick a fight is a nice change from the past.]
no subject
[That means no. Mostly, he knows what he /doesn't/ want, so...]
Why do you care?
no subject
[Shrug. Baby steps, he supposes.]
Was there something else you needed to tell me, or did you just want to make sure this went down better than last time?
no subject
Just didn't want you thinking I was up to something or anything like that.
[He's not. He's up to the least amount of things, actually.]
