Who: Riku and Sora
Where: Celadon
When: January 17th
Summary: It's Riku's birthday, and Sora, being the sap that he is, has opted to celebrate in the most bombastic way.
Rating: G

[Riku had been so busy working out PGC logistics that he'd lost track of the time. Flying and teleporting across Johto squeezed the energy right out of him, so by the time they made it back into town, he'd collapsed like a rock, unaware of what tomorrow would bring.

When he first wakes up, he doesn't even notice that there's something new on his head. Instead, he marches right up to the door of his room, gasping when confetti sprinkles down over his head. Then and only then does he notice the party hat strapped to his head.

Realizing just what's going on, he storms into the hall shouting--]

Hey, Sora!

[ worst best friend. you're not meant to share the birthday "fun" out of spite. shame on you. don't be hating because Sora is getting the better of you here.

and this room doesn't hold a trap. just a gift! ]

[It's called teasing, not spite. Gosh, Sora, way to be a critic.

Buuuut a gift is a welcome change of pace. So welcome that Riku struts right up to the gift, ready to tear through the wrapping like a pro.]

[ hey, hey... you started it. B(

and the gift is TM 34 - Swagger. get it? B) ]

... Swagger?

[Riku stares at the disc for around ten seconds before slooowly turning around...

And wiggling his eyebrows like a doofus. This is him attempting a smolder to prove a point.]

Yeah, that move's not me.

[ welp. can't have this. Sora puts a hand over his heart. the other on his forehead. ]

Oh Riiiku!~

[ totes fake swooning. and pretend fainting.

then he starts breaking out in fits of laughter. from the floor. ]

You want me to stick a rose between my teeth while we're at it?

[He rolls his eyes, drumming his fingers against his thigh. What a dweeb..]

Shouldn't I be the one with the rose between my teeth? I mean... You're the princess here, Riku.

Says the guy who just swooned.

[And now he's just gonna lean over Sora with a deadpan look.]

I can't help it, Riku. There's something I've always needed to tell you, but never had the courage to...

[ look at him. he's getting all anxious. nervous. and then there goes the lip quiver.

all from being flat on his back on the floor. ]

Oh yeah?

[He sloowly raises one of his eyebrows. On the upside, at least he hasn't flicked Sora in the forehead or something.]

[ Sora rolls onto his knees, snatching Riku's hands. annnnd yanks him down. ]

You are the biggest dork I've ever met. It's a good thing that I'm your best friend because I don't think anyone else could handle you.

[And now for the moment of truth...

He looks toward Sora leeaaans close...

And then baps him on the shoulder with one of those trademark Riku smirks.]

You're right. I'm a force that can't be controlled; maybe it's a good thing that little dating ad flopped.

Ow...

[ only it doesn't really hurt but Sora rubs his shoulder anyway. ]

It flopped because things like that aren't very attractive, Riku.

[ sticks out tongue. ]

You say that like I'd go around punching anyone who showed interest in me.

[He crosses his arms and tips his head back.]

Maybe you're just special.

[And also easy to tease. That certainly helps.]

Aww, Riku. It's so cute you think I'm interested.

[ look at that. he can tease too. ]

Well, with the way you gush about me sometimes, you gotta wonder...

[He snorts, knowing a tease when he hears one. So here, have a counter tease.]

[ Sora's hands go in the air.. and then he hangs his head. ]

You caught me. I've been secretly after you this entire time. It's not Kairi I wanted to share the fruit with...

[...Wait, what? Riku blinks a few times, placing a hand against his neck. Is he still teasing, or did Riku say the wrong thing and actually upset him somehow? Either way, this is one comment he lacks a proper retort for. Instead, he just sorta stares.]

...You okay? Look, I didn't mean to--

[Congratulations, Sora: you have smashed Riku's snarky exterior into little bite sized pieces.]

[ one second Riku... as Sora looks up at his friend? he's grinning. ]

[His mouth opens, then shuts, and then his fact contorts into a scowl... albeit a half-hearted one. He's not really mad, but darn it, Sora, he was worried!]

Oh, sure, laugh it up. Guess I should've seen that coming.

[ Sora laughs a little, getting to his feet. as an apology, he reaches to throw an arm around his best friend. ]

Call it a little bit of preemptive revenge. At one point I searched for you a long, long time. And all you could say was "well I didn't want to be found."

...What?

[WHAP. Riku slams his palm against his face, grumbling through his teeth.]

Seriously, what? Was I going through some stupid loner phase or something?

I guess that you thought he had good reasons. But pretty much I think he was being dumb.

Yeah, well, I'm pretty sure I couldn't get rid of you if I tried. He should've known that, too.

It's true. I'm a leech.

Now c'mon. There's more stuff to open, lover boy.
