Word count: 211
Characters: Sora, Riku, Santa
Spoilers: None, really.
Notes: I just replayed through Halloween Town/Christmas Town in KHII, and Sora's reaction to Santa is so absolutely adorable. I've kind of had this whole Christmas theme in my head lately, and for all the angst I give these poor characters, I figure I can give them a laugh, too.
What can I say. He's making a list, and checking it twice...
"See? I told you!"
Sora plants his hands on his hips, beaming with triumph. Riku just stands there, dumbstruck and staring.
"And who is this, Sora?" comes a kindly old voice.
"Oh, just a friend of mine," Sora says, with a devilishly airy tone. "This is Riku. And he's the one who told me Santa Claus wasn't real."
"But I," Riku says.
"Oh, that's too bad," Santa says. "That means you have to go on the naughty list."
Santa Claus.
Santa Claus.
When Riku was five, he decided Santa Claus wasn't real.
Stupid five year-old me. Stupid!
"But isn't it possible to earn my way back on the nice list somehow?!" Riku says in a rush, not bothering to hide his anxiety. Somewhere deep down his inner child is torn between being mortified at his former disbelief and glee that he’d been proven wrong after all.
Sora and Santa Claus exchange glances. Both look to the ceiling as they consider, Sora stroking his chin, Santa his beard.
Riku endures a full minute of this silent torture.
Then, suddenly, the two exchange knowing looks and burst out laughing.
Riku feels himself flush to the roots of his hair while his inner child scolds, See, this is what you get for not believing.
