Ninth ★ [Video]
[Once again the feed is a bit shaky once it begins, but soon it evens out to show moving trees before it's finally set down on some smooth surface--a rock?]
Sora went home. [The matter of fact tone can't hide the sadness in his voice. Yet another one of his friends, gone. While he's relieved to know for a fact that his best friend does indeed wake ( Read more... )

He appears and stands off to the side, leaning against a light-pole or something. He'd felt it too, but was hoping it was only temporary. A glitch. Something. Even though he wasn't friends with Sora - he hadn't remembered Rep at all, only knew that he looked like Riku - there had been a connection. Sora had tried to know 'Caden.' For that reason alone, Rep is sad to know that he's really gone.
He's in casual clothes, with his new camera swung over his back so all it really looks like is a choker from the front. Not saying anything, bro, just gauging the situation.]

He can sense the other, but at first doesn't acknowledge his presence. Or, at least doesn't seem to until he walks past, giving a halfhearted smirk. Might as well do what both of them did best: bluff and make small talk.]
...Nice camera.

Rep swings the camera around in front of him, looking down at it.]
It's really old. He said it's the best kind, though.

He stops to get a better look at it, giving a faint nod. The shopkeepers generally have a good idea about which are the best and which are not.]
I can see why. If it's lasted this long it won't break down so easily.

[Nope, definitely not. He looks down at the camera again.]
Consistent, predictable - that certainly makes it easier to handle. And repair, if it gets broken.
[That was a 'hey, I'm still here, bro.' kinda remark. What is communication :| ]

Though, I think the store owner may be wrong in this case.
[Riku lightly taps the camera.] It may be consistent, but it doesn't make it any easier to repair if the parts are no longer made. There's drawbacks to everything, and I'll admit the new has a few things the old could never dream of.
[Something they both suck at. Have a light tap on the chest, bro.] And that doesn't just apply to cameras.

Not exactly the kind of strength I wanted, but... [It's not something Riku does, so Rep is - at long last - not imitating him in an effort to do something.] I'll let you know how it turns out.

Nor is mine. [He shrugs though, having come to accept it.] We're rooting for you, Caden. So don't give up. [...this time.]
