[There aren't any words, just a random sketch of an island showing up in the journals. If it looks like it was done by a 5-year-old, WELL...that's because Riku isn't an artist, so whatever. Shut up. He's just trying to pass the time anyway.

If anyone on his crew needs him, they can find him sprawled on his hammock in his room.]

[Nods.]

You'll find each other when the time is right.

[Bumps his shoulder against hers.]

I danced with you at that anniversary party. Mostly because my mom made me, but still.

[booyaka_boom]

Well, here's hoping...

*Despite how unsure she might sound, she does manage a smile*

Oh, did you? I bet we made a super cute couple, even if you were forced!

[darknessinside]

[Laughs a tad awkwardly.]

Yeah, well. Wakka laughed at me, so I'm pretty sure I went on a sandcastle destroying spree the next day to rebuild some manliness.

[Says this with an obvious self-mocking tone.]

[booyaka_boom]

Oh, great... Even when I was a kid people were laughing at anyone being paired me with in any way...

*That was good to know, too. Maybe she just wasn't built for this stuff*

But I bet you really showed those sandcastles, you big meanie.

[darknessinside]

[Just raises his eyebrows and gives her a look.]

Selphie. We were nine. And he was laughing at me, not you. Because that's what dumb little kids do, especially boys.

[Pause.]

And then we destroy things. I'm telling you, not a single one survived. It was brutal.

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie just laughs off his comment, because she had only been partially serious about it, after all. She thinks*

Boys are stupid creatures, no matter what age they are.

*This, at least, she has decided, is definitely the truth*

[darknessinside]

[Barks out a laugh and gives her a wide grin.]

Yeah, that much is most definitely true. I apologize on behalf of our entire gender.

[booyaka_boom]

Hmm... I'm not sure that's a big enough apology for all of your gender, but I'll accept it for some of them, yourself included.

*Now it's her turn to nudge him playfully, shoulder to shoulder*
