[ ganba Riku. ]

You just need to deal with Nirrti. That's the one thing we can't do, because we're no longer on the board. Everything else is secondary. I'm living proof right? Death isn't as inescapable as it's painted.

Trust me.

[ Thanks... ]

Don't worry, I think we've had that handled. I think I have faith in the others too--we'll all be able to come up with something, even if it's not turning out how I expected.

[ But, maybe that's for the best. ]

At the same time, we're not going to just leave you guys stranded either. I know we can manage both.

[ He understands the priorities well enough, though at the same time he's not about to leave it just at taking care of Nirrti. Those who are 'no longer on the board' are still firmly in his mind and obviously still with them.

He won't accept leaving without them. ]

I don't really. But I have faith in you. [ Maybe that's a bit heavy, but it's the truth. Trust isn't something he gives lightly, so it needs to be said. ]

I know. But we can. I promised Anon I would wake him up, no matter what it took.

[rikuchi]

...Thanks, I mean it.

[ Having so much faith in him...that's nice to know, but all the same Riku knows that it's not just resting on his shoulders.

He just releases a sigh, but at the other male's words, he considers them carefully. ]

He's asleep?

[sotoshini]

In a sense, yeah. I was sleeping when you came in for a reason, you know. [ There's something almost shy there. ]
