It could still change a lot of things for you, Riku.
...Congratulations.
...Congratulations.
Naminé...
[ hm. a small smile. ] Thanks. Are you alright?
[ hm. a small smile. ] Thanks. Are you alright?
You deserve it.
I'm fine. Nothing you need to worry about. I wish I could have celebrated with you though.

[ there's a flash of hesitation--he's not so sure about that. ] ... I guess.
Sora would've liked to talk to you.
Sora would've liked to talk to you.
Commendations are in order, I believe.
Master Riku.
Master Riku.
I'm not going to get used to that. [ especially from him. ]
What about you?
What about you?
[Her smile fades, but she nods.]
I know he would. But... there will be another time for it. That wasn't the right time.

[He's just going to smirk.
You have all walked right into his plans. Good to know!]

[ and he sighs, eyes closed and head tipped down. ]
Well, we'll find the right time. One day.
Well, we'll find the right time. One day.
I have more work to do, evidently.
Preparations... Radiant Garden still lies in disarray, and who know how much time we have now.

Nothing.
[You're giving him what he wants already. Everything is going according to plan.]

[She nods and smiles.]
It will come. Everyone's time will come. Until then, I think you'll be a great Master.

[ he crosses his arms. ]
That's right... maybe there's something I can do.
That's right... maybe there's something I can do.
Then why are you here? You can't ...
[ gloat.
that's what he was about to say, but Riku's quick to rethink his words. ]

[ he raises his gaze at her words, the look on his face cheekily amused. ]
You sound like Sora.
I'll be okay as long as I keep you guys in mind.

You seem a bit well-occupied, for a visit.
It's important to keep everyone safe. Especially after you guys come back.
[ meaning: Even if Yen Sid says no, I'm probably going to get there somehow. ]

And why can't I?
[After all, these is all things that have been planned for.]
[After all, these is all things that have been planned for.]
[She blinks, unsure to take that as a compliment or just a comment or what.]
W-well, it doesn't hurt to be a little bit optimistic.
That's kind of you to do so. The others would be happy to hear that.

Because you haven't won.
[ he knows this for sure.
... but...
seeing his face now, Riku isn't unsure of his station or his accomplishments--but there's a sinking feeling that there's something stronger coming. like riding out a tropical storm, and realizing you're at the edge of a hurricane. ]
... not this battle.

[ it was definitely a compliment. ]
You know... I don't know if I'm as patient as everyone thinks.

[ hey there, he's going to stare at you for a moment. ]
What was that--? [ obviously meaning the Keyblade bit, not the thanking. ]

[Oh, you are so very wrong.]
But I have. And you haven't even realized how just yet.
[Sora is alone in the dream world. He has most of his vessels gathered. You are a master who has duties to accomplish. Everything is coming together.]
