First there's the endless walking in circles, and now there's fog so thick it's like that time Larxene deliberately used up all the hot water in the bathroom by turning on every shower full blast. He can tell somebody's nearby, though--even unable to see, he can sense that there's someone within earshot.

"Well," he says then, clearing his throat, "this is probably about to get a little awkward."

Damn, and just when he felt like he'd been making a bit of headway with Riku, too.
