Who: Riku (dreamprotector) & OPEN
What: Riku wakes up after three days in stasis. Somehow the world seems different now.
When: 7/11-ish, before the next wave of awakenings
Where: Thesa station
Warning(s): KH-spoiler for 3D and 0.2, Kingdom Hurts is its own warning?
[ A – Destati ]
[Awaking is a sluggish process (or at least that's how it feels like), a feeling as though someone glued his eyes shut and put his body into ice water while he was sleeping or something. He recognizes the station as he stumbles through it, but it and the life he's lived here for months almost seem like a distant dream now.
(Dreams can be so very deceiving; Riku knows that for a fact.)
It must have been real though… and now he can't help but wonder how much time has passed since he fell asleep again, if Sora, Terra and Axel (Lea?) are still awake as well– and then stops when he passes by a monitor showing the frozen El Nysa, shivering involuntarily at the sight of Yversai's large undead form, then frowns.]
…Well, I guess it hasn't been that long if he's still around.
[…Unless the Natha somehow have taken months being unable to fix this. So yea, he really needs to track down a date. And/or people. Whichever comes first. If he only wasn't still feeling so damn shaky on his feet…]
[ B – Sweet Spirits ]
[After having assured himself that no more than a few days must have passed, Riku is making his way to the mess hall right after making a short stint to his room in the station – he doesn't have the suit case with the new set of cloths that Master Yen Sid had gifted him with anymore, hasn't even gotten to see them yet, but at least his younger self was smart enough to keep a set or two of wyver-styled threads around; it really is time for a change after all.
Dressed in comfortable black and red cloths, a little taller and without the blindfold he looks probably somewhat different to anyone who knows him – even his body language seems to have changed into something a bit more self-assured, tension drained away into what appears to be the casual arrogance of a teenager.
What really may or may not catch one's eye when he enters the mess is his companion(!?), the colorful bat flitting around the room before settling comfortable on Riku's shoulder after he gets his share of alien food. Riku really can't help but grin as he feeds small bits of blue potatoes and green jelly to the curious bat, laughing lightly as he pulls a face.]
Yea, I know. The food here doesn't quite satisfy your sweet tooth, huh? Well, it can't always be candy and ice cream, Highwind.
[The bat makes a low sound of regret, but then trills as Riku reaches up to rub his chin, eyes changing from yellow to blue. Then he pushes off of Riku's shoulder, fluttering away to see who else is in this strange new place! Maybe he can make a new friend!!! :D]
[ C – Hold Up Your Wildcard! ]
[ooc: Riku is around Thesa station and may or may not be visiting the Stasis Unit a lot more than usual, so come at me! Or maybe contact me on plurk (![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico)

I think you wouldn't have… the way Master Yen Sid explained it, the Realm of Sleep exists as a result of us closing the Door to Darkness. While most Worlds were restored back into being then, some remained asleep in that realm. Waking them was the task for our Mark of Mastery Exam.
As for Dream Eaters… that's how the Darkness takes shape in that Realm… as a Nightmare that feeds of good dreams or as a Spirit that consumes bad dreams.
[Needless to say that Highwind is a Spirit, right? Right.]
no subject
I see...
[So, the Realm of Sleep was a new realm that harbored sleeping worlds that had once fallen to darkness... And Sora and Riku were tasked with waking those worlds for their exam? Terra might not know much about waking up sleeping worlds, but it sounds like serious work. He doesn't get a chance to think about the subject much more than that, though, as Riku goes on to explain Dream Eaters and... Terra's suddenly yanking his hand back from Highwind a bit.]
This is darkness?
[This strange... and okay, kind of cute... bat monster is made up of darkness? Did he hear Riku right or is he understanding him right?]
Is this-- is he a Nightmare one or a Spirit one?
[No, Terra needs to be explicitly told what he was just about to give ear scritches to. And does it even matter if it's a Nightmare or a Spirit if it's a monster of darkness?]
no subject
Riku looks… somewhere between amused and as though he's holding back a sigh. Just barely.]
He's a Spirit. [He reaches over to pat the Dream Eater again, to reassure the furball a little.] He's made from pieces of my dreams... and well, maybe Sora's too, I guess, but mostly mine.
[It had been hard to say who's Dream Pieces are whom's without actually diving into them after all, but since he'd created Highwind right at the start, Riku is certain with him at least. Not that it matters, ultimately.]
Even if they're a form of Darkness, all Spirits are totally benign. Sora and I used them as partners while we moved through the Realm of Sleep… they can be pretty useful in a fight.
