| [ the classroom is utterly silent.
there are twenty polished wood desks of high caliber, each stamped with 'Alabaster Boarding School for Youths' in gold leafing. of the five in the first row, Riku is seated atop the third desk in a school uniform, pressed navy blue blazer and trousers with a sky-blue tie, a white dress shirt underneath (oddly enough, no shoes). the teacher's desk is empty, every desk is empty, and the back half of the classroom is practically shrouded in darkness.
none of that matters to Riku, though. he's just staring ahead to the dry-erase board in front of him, staring at it.
it's covered in red marker, messages ranging from 'you're a fake' and 'stop conning us' to 'please just talk to us again' and 'i miss having you around', although the latter are marginally less frequent than the formers. and in the middle, the only phrase in black, is you're a menace.
there are no erasers or markers anywhere near the board, or on Riku. as the door opens to shed more light, he looks over. ]Why are you here? [ ooc: permissions! ] |

| The closer you get to the light, the greater your shadow becomes.[But perhaps in this case, it was different. Prosaic and memorable as those words may be, they don't hold true to this moment.]The closer you get to the light, the slimmer the chance you'll survive. Isn't that right, Roxas? [A pause, and the boy laughs, cold and chilling, staring about the dream world once shared by two close individuals with extreme interest. Roxas screams in his mind, but it's oh so easy to simply block him out- he'd learned to do that years ago.]
[There was so much here, so much to ruin, so much to-- break.]
[So many people.]
[So little time.]
[Lips curl upwards into a cruel smile, and the illusion of Roxas simply lasts but a moment. Then it's gone, and a shadow stands in his wake. Solid, alive... and with a stark, chilling resemblance to Sora that Roxas has never held.]Let's go have some fun. [OOC: all replies will be made with the journal endinsentiment. The flip of the chessboard occurs in the opposite other being in play-- and Roxas falling under possession instead of Sora. Please be advised violence and character injury is liable to occur-- please let me know if character death is okay.] |
