[Waking up in a strange, new world is nothing new to Riku. After all, it happened when the islands disappeared into darkness. However, he didn't end up enrolled in a military academy back then. So, needless to say, this whole situation is different and a little overwhelming.

Time compression, Sorceresses... it's all a bunch of strange jargon to him. Still, if he's going to be stuck for a while, he might as well get used to it.

Which is exactly why he's planning on exploring every nook and cranny to get a feel for his surroundings. First stop? The cafeteria, to grab something to eat. While there, he'll probably find a quiet spot to sit on his own. No need to draw attention to himself, after all.

But once that's over with, he'll head on down to the Training Center. There, he'll showcase some of his sweet moves, including elemental magic, Keyblade techniques, tossing it at enemies like a boomerang or ramming straight into them, adding in a flurry of rapid combos... just to name a few of his techniques. He'll keep at it for a good while, noticeably keeping to himself. Obviously, someone should pester him before he overworks himself. KH folk might notice he's wielding Oathkeeper.

But after a while, he'll go ahead and park it in the library at one of the computers. By then he's blown off some steam and types up this message...]

You know, maybe I shouldn't be surprised. I've been pulled from one world to the next for a while now. Just wasn't expecting to wind up on my own again.

Or to end up back in school. So... anything I should know before classes start? Looks like I got pulled in here at the last minute. Might as well get an idea of what I'm getting into.

[ooc: Feel free to bump into Riku at any time, really. I tread to leave some options open!]

Not in the way you'd think I would, most likely.

[Really, he's not sure what to make of this Riku. At least it is Riku, it would seem, and not Ansem.]

[chosenwielder.livejournal.com]

Try me.

[Looks like Sora, but... clearly isn't. That's relevant to his interests.]

[feedmyglitch]

I am the entry on Sora's Heartless contained within Jiminy's Journal. The data, as you would, on him, as well as countless other Heartless and glitches that I have devoured.

[Simple enough, yes?]

[chosenwielder.livejournal.com]

...

[What?]

How can you be a journal entry? That doesn't even add up.

[feedmyglitch]

A few silly chipmunks and a witch decided to mess with the data contained within the journal. By giving the Sora there sentience, I, too, achieved this. And then I began to devour the data released when Heartless were eliminated and glitches destroyed.

[It's Kingdom Hearts, Keyku. You will learn not to question things.]

[chosenwielder.livejournal.com]

[...A living Sora in the journal and chipmunks and what?

Man, even after everything he's seen, that's a lot to take in.]

And you're not making this up.

[feedmyglitch]

Of course not. The proof is before you, is it not?

[He certainly doesn't act like a normal Heartless, after all.]

[chosenwielder.livejournal.com]

[Heh. He does have a point, weird as it is.]

Fair enough. Not like it's the strangest thing I've heard all day.

[feedmyglitch]

True, considering that you're here.

[He snickers a bit, then his face becomes neutral.]

...You do not plan on eliminating me, do you?

[chosenwielder.livejournal.com]

That depends on what you do.

[A Heartless that speaks and thinks is different than one that attacks relentlessly. Riku still looks a bit uneasy, but at least he's not drawing his weapon.]
