@ultmanias asked: i want to whisper in your ears the things i couldn't say. / rikuyu pls

the suggestion, albeit sounding quiet teasing, actually brought myriad of butterflies to sayu's stomach. many things were left unsaid throughout these years - many which sayu, herself, was guilty of. to think there were simpler times, when crushing was the most difficult part to deal with but now? now, sayu had to deal with the truth of her birth origin and, well...fully accept herself as the princess of darkness. maybe this wasn't in part of maleficent's plans but at this point, did it matter? what mattered more were present times and everyone's undying effort to detect sora. of course, what also mattered was her relationship with riku, and being transparent with her boyfriend. sometimes it was easy but some days, it was easier said than done. regardless, the shorter woman needed to talk to riku...there were so many things she, herself, never said, after all.

sayu just didn't expect him to approach the topic, but then again, maybe she shouldn't be so surprised - this was years of pinning and will-they-won't-they until neither couldn't take the tension, any longer. with that, the black haired only smiled and looked up at the taller keyblade master. ❛ in that case... ❜ she pauses to take hold of riku's hands, pulling him closer until he's the right height for her to reach. then and there, one hand moves to take hold of his cheek as she moves to peck his cheek and, without hesitation, leaned to his own ear. ❛ could i, too, whisper the things i never said to you, my dusk? there's a lot i haven't said, and i want to... ❜ pausing to slowly pull off, her eyes meet his as she smiles. ❛ it's only fair, you know...? ❜

@ultmanias asked: string. sender sees an invisible string of fate tying them to receiver. / rikuyu again pls

everything fell in place, at least for now. the group was close to finishing their makeshift, small raft and food was well over prepared and processed for the journey. although sayu, the smallest and shyest of destiny island's kids, was initially reluctant to leave their little home in order to just "leave" and cure their boredom, all she needed was few nudges to right direction. surely, it wouldn't hurt to spend more time with her friends, right? ah, but she wasn't so useful...come to think of it, was she even needed? sora, kairi and riku were close knit and have done everything together - almost to the point everyone teased the trio for always being seen together - and it felt as if there shouldn't an interruption in their planning.

besides...she was nothing more but a setback.

even so, sayu never allowed those pessimistic thoughts get in her way of getting closer with the group ... especially not when it come to a certain, silver-white haired boy, who managed to touch her heart's core and made her shy each time he even looked her way. although riku was the more "cool and collected" type of this friend group, the raven haired girl always felt they clicked so well together, especially seeing how much he included her in their activities. of course, sora and kairi did the same - she wouldn't be as close with them if that hadn't been the case - but since sayu has found herself stranded in destiny island, with no memory of where she came from, riku seemed to be the most insistent to include her and help her get accommodated.

in short terms, she felt seen, heard and belonged in riku's presence, hence her heart developing these odd, fluttering feelings...ah, but she couldn't say them, not at all! yes, everyone seemed to notice and either teased or encouraged the shy girl to confess, she was sure riku definitely didn't return her feelings. he seemed to like kairi, her best friend...everyone liked her, and though sayu couldn't blame them nor didn't see the reason why, something within her stung. an unnecessarily disgusting, sickening urge bubbled inside her stomach. if only...if only she was as radiating and bright, cheerful and joyful, ever so brimmed with light, but no, that was not her. sayu was the mellow, quiet and melancholic - she was the darkness. she will never fit in, never find joy nor be loved by the one who accepted her first, never never never NEVER NEVER NEVER-

with a sudden yelp, sayu jolts out of her seat and slaps her cheeks in harsh manner, the sudden rush of pain snapping her back to reality. almost immediately, amethyst eyes scanned the surroundings and found that, thankfully, nobody was around to witness such an embarrassing act. the young girl's expression darkened to the point you could tell there was a dark cloud looming over her head, though she chose not to say anything and simply walked out the scene. what she didn't know, however, was an invisible string soaring through dusk's skies which followed directly to a certain boy...whose fate seemed to be sealed with hers, and feelings reciprocated.

how wrong sayu was...oh, how viciously wrong she was, nor was she aware of series of tragedies that would unfold for the two whose fates are intertwined.

@ultmanias asked: let's talk like we did when we were young. / from riku !

no matter how many times this scene repeated, the sense of familiarity would always linger. sayu lost count of how many times they've played this scene out - riku and kairi leaving to find new leads on sora only to return several days later, sometimes even weeks later, and be welcomed by everyone in destiny island. the princess of darkness opted to watch over their homeland - despite the deep yearning to participate in the search more regularly, but alas, she knew her powers couldn't be of help - they stemmed from darkness, after all. the few times she would head on missions, however, were cherished. not only could she visit new worlds and explore its' beauty but also spend more time with riku. additionally, he could get support from her end - it was win-win, in her books.

as the two explored icy realms of arendelle as a sort of break from the mission - its' cold weather not bothering sayu, at all - she's taken off guard by riku's words. while she's not sure where did nostalgia come from, seeing that this world was nothing like destiny's island, she wouldn't turn it down in any instance. that being said, all the girl could do is smile before tucking some strands of hair behind her ear. ❛ in that case, we shouldn't talk...i was too shy to even look at you, don't you remember~? ❜ she begins with a tease, bursting in small giggles. once it dies down, sayu's smile softens before closing the distance with her boyfriend, pressing against him as arms wrapped around his waist - her head pressed to his chest. ❛ but, i digress...sure thing. we can make up for all times we didn't talk back then...how does that sound? ❜
