Two questions.

If you can't control your power at first, how do you try to?

And if you don't have a power or magic... have you ever done something you regret?

There's 'study'... but there aren't books on darkness, either. The most I've got are Ansem and Xehanort's Reports.

[ a short sigh. ]

Darkness? Is that the kind of power you have then? [In some stories darkness is usually enforced as "evil", he can see how having control over something like that might be difficult. But he's not entirely sure. One thing is for sure.. Riku doesn't necessarily seem like the evil kind of person.]

Are the reports any good?

[ a pause; he's not sure if he wants to just go ahead and tell him, but he nods. ] Yeah.

They're pretty biased, I'd say. They don't really tell me about it, either, but I think that's the only real... documentation on it.

I see. [a nod, hmm.]

Afraid I can't really help you much there, being a non-magic bloke and all. Maybe it's just something you gotta learn for yourself?

[ he chuckles. ]

I know.

Looks like that's really the only way. Figuring it out myself, since it looks like I'm the only one in the worlds to do something like this.

Maybe someone will show up who knows how to use it? They could give you some pointers, gotta be a teacher for it somewhere.

[he's trying to be humorous shush, but also serious a little.]

[ he laughs a little, obviously knowing the implications in John's tone. ]

You think so?

Course, they've got a teacher for just about everything else. So why not?

I guess you're right.

[ maybe. maybe he'll actually think about or look for a teacher rather than striking out on his own again... ]

It's one way at least. Better than figuring it out alone.

[ friends can help :| ]

Ah, right.

'Friends help people'. [ see, he hasn't forgotten. ] I'll try it that way. But, you know... I don't make friends easily.

[ said in a light, sort-of joking manner. ]

[he nods a that, good you remembered!

before he takes a moment to ponder..]

You've made a friend in me, sure there's plenty blokes you can get along well with too.

You're different.

Really? How so?

Not many people would go operate in the middle of the night.

[ okay he laughs a little ]

Don't think we would have caught much sleep if we didn't anyways.

Heh.

Yeah, I guess not.

Have... [ a pause. ] .. your nightmares gotten any better?

They haven't been as bad, nothing really to trigger them on getting any worse.

How about you?

They're less... worse.

[ awkward way of putting it, but... ]

I could administer something to help you sleep.

... I don't think I want that. At least if I'm having a bad dream, I could wake up.

I understand, but if you ever want anything to get a night's rest, then just ask.

I'll ask.

[for a moment he just watches him, before he nods- seeming satisfied with his reply.]

Right, well keep me updated. Take it easy.

[ and Riku nods back. ]

You too.

[ Worrying takes a lot out of you. ]
