[It takes him a moment or several to respond, not having realized he's been broadcasting this entire thing. Well, there went his reputation. He shakes his head, uncertainly... before giving a faint nod at the SFC on the table as he puts down the piece of paper before it is ruined by tears.]

[Loss of a loved one always seems to affect people in different ways, though this is the more common one. Joshua watches for a moment or two before responding. He feels that Riku should have a little time to grieve to himself, as that's healthy. Too much gets to be tiresome and unproductive.]
See, this is why I can't see you with a heart of pure darkness. You care too much. Though, that could be why it targets you anyway.
[Video] Ain't it nice? ;w;limitless_landJanuary 11 2011, 01:10:39 UTC
[Yes, it does. And normally it wouldn't affect him this badly... if it hadn't been two pillars of his support system. It wasn't like they were dead, or in Xion's case, yet. She didn't seem to know about what happened with Roxas...]
More than likely... but it hasn't won since the first time.

[So someone was taking the normal way out of the apartment for once when he heard the crying? This guy. It caught his interest pretty quickly, so he lightly knocks on the doorframe.]

[He hears that knock on the doorframe, looking up with just a bit of surprise. ...Okay, good. Just Demyx. If it had been Xigbar, Muraki or Vanitas...there might have been a problem.]
Y-yeah... just a rough morning.
[Door's open, or he can just portal in. That letter's disappeared into his pocket, though.]

... Riku? Do you need someone to talk to?
It doesn't have to be me, perhaps you can tell me who and I can find them for you?

[A shrug. That's a story for another day.]
I hope you don't plan on grieving all day. There's always a chance your friends might come back, and aside from which they've only returned home.

[He'd love to listen, man. Stories are awesome.]
What worries me is the point in time they both came from... One left to die on the outside and the other...
[He bites the inside of his lip. Should be obvious that there will be another having to tell of what happened to him in this place.]
...No, I don't plan on it.

Hey, uh... You okay in there, dude?

[He waits a few moments before slowly opening the door, his hood pulled up over his head for certain reasons.]

[He's still holding on to the charm as Demyx enters, giving a faint smile to his friend as he wipes the tears from his face.]
...How've you been. Haven't seen you around in a while.

H-hey, Sora...
[He lifts his head slightly too look at his friend, revealing the charm in his hand unwittingly. Pull yourself together...]

[He's a little more awake now.]
Are you... crying?

[Head in hands, now. Not. Crying. In front. Of. Sora. ;~;] She's gone.
