There's more important things he could be doing than being stuck here.

[wilder]

Well sure, I'm pretty sure making doilies is more important than being here. But it's not like either of you have a say in that, right?

[limitstorm]

What'dyou have against doilies?

[ ah, deflecting with humor. ]

[wilder]

Just could never figure out the point of them. Are they decorative? Practical? A requirement for every old lady to have? I just don't know.

[limitstorm]

All of the above, probably.

[wilder]

Yeah, maybe.

Anyway, it's not like you can send him off...so you might as well enjoy the chance to do...I dunno, whatever besties like you do.

[limitstorm]

[ a sputter. ]

'Besties'?

[wilder]

Sorry. Just seemed like a word Sora might used.

[limitstorm]

Shouldn't you take your own advice?

[wilder]

Hmmm, nope!

Because as I said, we're not best friends. So that specific advice doesn't apply!

[limitstorm]

Quit finding loopholes.

[wilder]

Not a chance.

It's true anyway, it's not just me denying it. Lloyd's best friends are Genis and Colette. They all grew up together.

[limitstorm]

[ he opens his mouth to say something along the lines of 'there are different best friends', but he thinks this is sora's area. ]

Okay, okay. You're friends.

[wilder]

[He gives a sigh at that because NO THEY ARE NOT. But fine. Fine. Whatever. At least you relented some]

By the way, Sora's not a stalker right?

[limitstorm]

What?

You're starting to worry me.

[wilder]

What?

Hey I'm just checking! He was...very enthusiastic to meet someone who knew you, apparently.

[limitstorm]

He's... like that.

[ he laughs, and it tapers off as he shifts. ] He's always been the best at making fast friends. He's just excited.

[wilder]

Ahhh, one of those types. I had forgotten how much energy they have.

[limitstorm]

What, Lloyd hasn't given you a wake up call yet?

[wilder]

[A small heh]

Not really. Lloyd only has bursts of energy when there's something new, but it wears off pretty fast.

Any other constant energy he did have? Well at least with the Lloyd I knew back home, it was more directed at other tasks than befriending me. [It's not a complaint, it's matter of fact- Lloyd was kind of busy with all the bad things that were going around them]

[limitstorm]

Maybe Lloyd could help do that for Sora. [ s... igh. ] Sometimes...

[ bah. no, he's not going to get into that. he shakes his head. ] It's not important.

Just give him a chance. He's a pretty good friend--the more frowns he sees, the more he's gonna try to make you happy.

[wilder]

[Wow, that statement alone makes him frown]

...But I always frown, Riku.

1/2

[limitstorm]

[ a beat. ]

... you're right, you do.

[limitstorm]

I'll tell him to calm down. He's got his heart in the right place.

[wilder]

[A slight nod] Thanks, I'd appreciate it.

He's your friend, so I'm sure he means well. I'm just not at all fond of people who seem to expect a smile all the time.
