What? Not an entry? Absurd, I know, but this came to me on a whim (and thanks to Kya's denial).

Title: Other Plans
Characters: Demyx
Words: 101
Rating: G
 

 

Saix would have called it a tactical retreat.

Axel would have laughed and called it running away.

Demyx preferred to call it excellent acting.

He made sure to shriek convincingly, sent all his dancers away, let his Sitar dissolve into vapor--still warm from his grip-- and moaned and groaned from the agony he expected if the final blow actually did come.

...Nothing.

And then when Roxas (no, he said Sora) stormed around and shouted challenges to Nobodies that weren't there, Demyx hid, well out of sight, hoping the Organization wouldn't look for him before his debut.

Atlantica, here I come!



Title: Investment
Character: Riku
Word Count: 260
Rating: G

 

Upon his return to Destiny Island, Riku made two investments.

The first was in hair gel--extra strength--and the second was in sunscreen--the highest SPF on the market-- and not a day passed when both weren't liberally applied. When the summer sun would grow brightest, Sora would hold his bronzed arm against Riku's ivory one and chuckle at the intense difference. Girls--they gave him a lot more attention than he ever remembered getting, after he came back--started to make little wistful complaints that his 'gorgeous' eyes were hidden under his unruly forelock, but he stubbornly refused to pull it back. And cutting it, as they often informed him, would be criminal.

But vanity was pushed aside in favor of paranoia (though Kairi gently called it caution), and the gel and sunscreen remained.

Because once in a while, early in the morning before he even had a chance to turn on the lights, he would catch a glimpse of himself in the bathroom mirror, and every time the sight chilled him to the bone. The dim light darkened his skin; his sleep-tousled hair would be ruffled into those familiar wings, and for just a second, he could catch a fleck of gold in his eyes.

But then the light would be flicked on, the sunscreen slathered onto his skin, and his hair gelled flat against his skull, and Riku would become Just Plain Riku again. But just as a reminder to him, as a memorial of sins long gone, that fleck of gold would always remain.

I KNEW IT!
DEMYX DIDN'T DIE!

But wait?
Do you think this mean the other members were faking their own deaths?

I love the second one. It's funny and cute until the second last paragraph and then wham, the creepiness. Poor Riku, and great work. (:

Oh wow. My intense Kudos on both. Demyx for being so very silly, and Riku for being so gosh durn HoGeez!
