[So, being a new kid at school means one must do some wandering to familiarize oneself with the grounds and maybe make a few friends or run into some bullies, etc. Riku has been doing just that, though he hasn't really made any new friends yet and thankfully, hasn't ran into any bullies. He is, however, wandering into the training center and-

Oh hello, Mr. T-Rex. How are you today? He blinks a few times; it is his first time seeing a dinosaur after all.]

I'm glad you're not a Heartless. Hate to see what you'd be like... though I guess Sora would like you.

[Mr. T-Rex doesn't seem to care and demonstrates this by opening its massive jaw to roar in Riku's face. He doesn't seem too fazed, aside from wincing from the horrid breath of the dinosaur and extends a hand to one side, Way to Dawn appearing in a burst of light. Blocking a rather large claw, he's just going to trade some blows with the lizard; it's been a while since he's got some good training in.]


[ooc: feel free to watch/jump in/laugh- anything is fair game!]

[He doesn't move to let go just yet, although he knows that can't stand there forever with that T-rex only temporarily out of commission. But for now he looks up at Riku]

I thought maybe everyone forgot.

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[A brief chuckle, ruffling that messy hair] Well, I didn't think you'd remember either.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

[Everyone ruffles his hair, why? But Roxas is a happy camper so he'll be a good sport]

I'm glad you do. Having the worst time not confusing people that don't remember me.

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[Because it's cute.]

It is pretty confusing. Think we'll just have to get used to it.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, well...he'll only grant that when it's Riku]

It seems like it. Do you think this place'll be calmer?

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[Aw baby. ♥]

... Hopefully. [Spares the KO'd T-Rex a meaningful glance.]

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

[♥

Roxas follows that line of vision and lets go of Riku with some reluctance, claiming one of is hands instead]

Maybe we should go somewhere else.

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[He gives his a comforting squeeze, turning towards the exit]

Good idea.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

[So Roxas picks his way through the foliage, keeping a hold on Riku's hand...even when he slips a few times. Terrain sure isn't his friend here]

Have you looked around this Garden-place much?

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[Will tighten his hold on Roxas' hand when he slips, making sure he doesn't fall.]

Not exactly. I found this place by accident...

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

Oh. Well it's um...mostly for training, I think.

[Riku gives him the warm fuzzies, gosh]

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[Pfff. He chuckles, squeezing his hand a little] Kind of gathered that from running into Mr. Big Lizard back there.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

That's because you're a smart guy.

[The way he says it's as though he's saying up and down are opposites; he's just that sure of it]

[initiating.livejournal.com]

Doesn't take a genius to figure it out, really.

[Mostly amused, but hey, modest guy is modest. Along with the fact that he hasn't exactly been to school before so he doubts he's that clever.]

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

[Well Roxas will just be proud enough of Riku for the both of them then]

Not everybody would though.

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[Have a fond smile, Rox. ♥]

Bet you would.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

[That combination makes Roxas falter, sputtering a little]

Wh-what's that mean?

[initiating.livejournal.com]

[Heh.]

You're pretty smart yourself, you know.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

I don't know about that...

[After all he's got questions all the time. Always]

[initiating.livejournal.com]

How so?

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

It's not like I know very much.

[initiating.livejournal.com]

But you have a desire to learn. By asking questions, you gain knowledge. Your experiences help with that too.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

Maybe, but that doesn't mean I'm smart.

[initiating.livejournal.com]

Point. But a person who's not smart wouldn't even bother trying to learn.

[limitboost.livejournal.com]

...

You're too nice, Riku.

[He smiles all the same, pretty well aware he's lucky to be in a relationship with somebody like that]
