Description
There is nothing as good as day after day. There is nothing so precious as having a day to go on. All these things have not been sure for them for such a long time. There is the sincerity of laughing in the splashing waves in the afternoon, the knowledge of everyone around. There is a home they don't have to go to because they are already there, wherever they are.Homework isn't that bad, Riku decided, even if Sora was already copying it from him by that moment and they surely would get caught for handing in the same text.
Because things as homework and being caught and the beach in the afternoon where all a part of what he began to value when he was lost in the somewhere.
It was all a part of home. And most of all it was the hand near his knee and the disarming smile that awaited him alone, only a headturn away.

The things that hold us like a warm blanket, keeping us safe - all the simple days we spent in the embrace of being together.

I love this shooting. The colors are so great together and I love the different poses you come up with, even if they don't seem too different from each other..

At this point in time Sora finally notices something in Riku's work book that finally makes sense of why Riku may have taken art for a semester. This lead to the question of, why did Riku decide to lose his attention span at one point, which of course would rarely happen, and draw Sora without a shirt. Many questions in the world are still left unanswered, this actually isn't one of them.
Okay, I seriously couldn't resist.

And he totally needed that art semester, otherwise he would never have been able to draw Sora the way so he would be able to recognize himself being doodled into the corner of a page^_-

No one knows how he got to keep the sketches in his books, I mean really you'd think the teachers or other class mates would catch on. Then again other class mates who found out probably got beaten up. If you really think about it Riku was a violent guy, "Oh so you're gonna smack me in the head with your ball? WELL EAT MY SWORD!" Okay maybe the others started it, but that can't be proven, either way.
So either he psychologically convinced the teachers not to care, and made sure anyone else kept their mouths shut, or people stopped questioning why pages of his books were ripped out. Riku never had the heart to erase the pictures he'd rather rip out the pages and keep them.

Maybe just no one would dare to notice due to the fear of being victim of the death-glare of laser beams. And his hair has grown, so it's hard to see hat he's doing when he keeps his head down.

You ever wonder what happens if you put two Riku's in a room together and you start a staring contest?
That works as well, plus if anyone was to call on him as long as he can make anything that pops into his head relate back to the topic no one will question the logic. That's how one convinces teachers that a blank sheet of paper was the right answer.

Maybe that's the reason Replica died.
Possibly he knows it all anyway because he transfered a year back to shine in everything in front of a certain someone.

There was head explosions off screen from to many laser beam glares? Riku had an immunity to it, why? He is secretly a ninja with laser beams for eyes! Vexen forgot to include that in his notes thus I have no clue where I'm going with this!
You may have a point there, thus there is only a few mysteries left in the KH world to solve. Are we at the false delusion that Riku must be an honors with distinction student no matter what. I mean I've never seen anyone try to make him fail at anything... HE CAN'T EVEN FAIL AT WEARING A SKIRT! There is no fault in his character, there is something wrong with that! Thus begins the quest to find the Holy GRAIL! I mean fault in pretty emo boy character... Yeah let's go with that title... Or Mcemoprettypants.

A ninja would never reveal himself to anyone, not even to Vexen (although Vexen shines with wonderfulness). Poor Vexen, what a fatal mistake.
But he is not emo. He just doesn't need so many expressions because he's better at using them than others. His greatness is maybe misunderstood. He doesn't need Emoness, he's ahead of that, too.
π: 0 β©: 1
...Wait you have respect for Vexen? Because if so I'm impressed I'm used to people hating him. Yes he had his annoying moments but personally he was an interesting fight and actually was fairly clever. Truth be told I maintained a high level of respect for most of the characters.
I'll never argue about Riku's greatness, because that can be proven time and time again. You have to admit though he had some, for lack of better term depression issues for some parts. I'll admit that emo probably was not the right term to use for Riku however it's still fun to poke fun at. However at some points he does need better lines... I mean seriously, up until KH2 his lines were not always where they needed to be at for his character.

I totally have sympathy for Vexen, he just has this lovable Gollum faceXD
We may never say this out loud, but he lost a lot of his coolness on the way through darkness. He'll need a major kick-up after KHII to return to his former state.

Only time I ever had an issue with Vexen is when they gave him the insane eye twitch that made him look like I wanted to punch him in the face, which I did several times other then that I had no issue with him. I actually rarely had an issue with anyone in the Organization, mostly because they still followed the psychology of what is in most groups.
Well I mostly agree with you there, he did try to pick himself back up by the end however in my sense to get him back to where he needs to be he needed a Sarcastic attitude to respond to everything. He started with it in the first Kingdom Hearts, then he lost, then he made me hit my head on a wall in CoM with the one line "The truth is you just smell." He needed to get a sarcastic attitude it goes well with his personality in contrast who he hangs around with. Well the other option is to throw Kairi off the island into the water and make out with Sora, but clearly Square wouldn't do that because it would slap everyone else in the face who denies it... Also I'm really hoping Square sticks to the plan of having another KH game that focuses mainly on Riku, but from what I've seen I doubt it (Yes I just checked, it looks like game play for it is Sora, but they have a picture of Riku's back so I may still have a bit of hope.)... Unless it's the game where they were drunk when they came up with the plot line... I'll go check.
Also completely a part from the game, Riku gets far cooler figures then any of the other characters, and his plushie is also a lot better then most of the other characters.

I don't know what happened to him in CoM at some points, but I just keep ignorinbg itXD After all, any KH character is not really that deep.

People can no longer play and of the KH games with me in the room, mostly because they laugh to hard to fight. I love playing CoM it never leaves my DS unless someone else steals it, however you look at the original CoM there are so many plot holes. For one the ending
"Well now we're walking down this road and we have organization coats, no one knows where we got them. Guess it was really Organization 15, and this talking mouse told me to mug two of the members. Ansem still smells really bad, that's why I can smell him that or I've been sniffing old men." Summary of the end of Riku's side that was probably the entire point to everything.
Of course it's Disney, Disney doesn't add depth to characters unless they really want to, they only add psychological problems. If Square-Enix alone were to do KH, with no input what so ever from Disney... Riku would probably end up like Sephiroth then I'd never respect him again. Before we get into any argument on that, FF7:
"OH CLOUD I DON'T LIKE YOU LET ME THROW MY MOTHER AT YOU!" *Pathetic throw.*
"I throw my Angst at your mother."

This is really nice. It just shows them lounging under a tree and enjoying the moment together. Sora would totally copy Riku's homework. XD

Both photo and story are wonderful! They mesh so well.

Wow, this time I love the picture and the description seperately. I love the picture because it's just so cute. Sora's trying to copy off of Riku and you get a sense that Riku knows, but doesn't really care. The description I love because it makes you think about how precious life is. All the small, insignificant things are what really make up life, not just the mile stones. Great job. ^^

This shooting is so lovely. I adore it very very much.
How you're looking off makes it seem like he's mulling over all of this. It's wonderful to read and feel Riku's emotions. All the simple, inane things become a treasure, especially after all he's been through. There really is no place like home, and it's wonderful to see his acknowledge of that from the past. And his home... that last bit just made me smile. Sora, right there. ^^
Aw, and Sora...

the bright, clean uniforms really make both your eyes stand out. it adds light, warmth, and beauty. ^^

It's official- I have completely fallen in love with this shooting! ^^ The feeling of it really gets me. School days and simple things and being able to really live life after all that's happened... Everything is just perfect, it gives me such a fuzzy feeling and though it's not as thoughtful and interpretive as some of your other works it is still so essential and realistic and wonderful that I can't help but love it.
I love this part of Riku so much it hurts. For though he obviously feels a lot of guilt after all he's done (and all he blames himself for), I don't think it would hold him back from being able to enjoy a simple lifestyle again. Just to have Sora- he knows he is lucky and he knows enough of life to be sure to enjoy every minute of it. ^^
He spends so much time being troubled during the game that it's truly wonderful to see him like this, and I can think of no better interpreter than yourself. ^^
There is a home they don't have to go to because they are already there, wherever they are.
I love this. I love the feeling that your writing carries. And I love your expression here- you look so alert, like seeing something you've seen a thousand times as if it were the first time again and again. We can feel both the cute school moment between the boys and the moment of wonder and elation that Riku experiences at the simplicity of it all, and I love them both. ^^
Thanks so much for sharing, this one is really great!
