CITRINE

You're standing together on what seems to be the main street of a small village, paved with cobblestones, with low buildings standing silent on either side. If you look in any of them, you'll find them dark and empty.

In contrast to the Ring, it's rather chilly. The sky is slate-grey, and it seems like there's snow falling, blanketing you and the village in pure white. On closer inspection, the snow turns out to be ash – but the bleaching is literal. Even when you brush it off, your skin, your hair, your clothes, and your keys remain ash-coloured.

A single, feeble light flickers further down the street.

[wow, this is the worst time of his life for this.

ever.

Riku walks toward the sword and takes it, though, and gets a feedback loop of being possessed by Ansem, of fighting Sora, of hurting him, over and over and over again ...]

[ ... oh.

And now there is hesitation, because even if he knows he won't die, all logic says THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU RUN YOURSELF THROUGH THE HEART WITH A SWORD.

But eventually going to pick up the sword and do the task, twisting the blade and screaming at the pain now because holy shit ]

[drifting closer, looking concerned, but pretty caught up in all that blood.

I thought you were stronger than that.

[ he is sort of realizing you + blood is a bad combination right now, so it's going to take him a bit for him to follow after him-- which works for the better anyway, because it takes him a while to be able to move at all. And he's just sort of stumbling as he walks anyway, what with all that pain and stuff. ]

These guys are seriously annoying.

[his voice is shaky as he heads toward the sword without much conviction.

and takes it]
