[ the feed starts abruptly with the corner of what appears to be a book covering a small portion of the camera. it shows a slightly awkward angle of Riku and the Replica tucked in a corner of the library, deep in conversation: ]
These books are stupid. These names are stupid. [ the Replica sighs, throwing another book on the desk while Riku continues to flip through his book. ]
What d'you want me to break out, kid's books? There's got to be a name you like somewhere in here.
Probably wouldn't make a difference. I don't want to be called Chris, or Mark, or Lucifer? What do they even mean?
Uh, let's steer clear of Lucifer. I don't know. I know 'Riku' means land. 'Sora' means sky... I think. 'Kairi' has something to do with the ocean. There's got to be something that says what they mean somewhere in here.
[ there's a moment of brief silence before the Replica snickers. ]
... Land?
Land, or earth, I thi--... what?
Nothing. It kind of works... you're stubborn enough, I guess.
Wouldn't that mean the same for you?
I never said I wasn't.
Maybe we should name you 'Volcano'. You're always ready to explode.
[ no sooner had Riku said it before the Replica grabbed a book and threw it across the table at him, aiming for his head. Riku barely even glances up and merely leans his head to the right as the book goes sailing over his shoulder. the Replica scowls at him. ]
Once a jerk, always a jerk.
I don't hear you rejecting it.
It's dumb enough that it shouldn't even be suggested, let alone be rejected.
At least I'm suggesting things. What about 'Virgil'?
[ silence again. this time the Replica seems to be considering it, head lowered a little in thought. Riku looks up from his page and quietly waits for his opinion. after a moment: ]
.... Does it mean anything?
[ there's a wry smile from Riku ] Strong.
Okay.
[ as the Replica (now Virgil) stands to gather up the books, he finally notices the tablet and quickly turns off the feed with a resigned sigh and a quiet groan.

[ oh. he presses his hand against his face, and laughs again. ]
Guess it doesn't help if I say that we didn't know she was a princess until a few years ago, huh?
I have friends in high places. [ a shrug. he might be a little pink. ]
( video )
Any other connections you want to confess to?

[ now, he's just grinning. ]
This sounds ridiculous.

No way. My family's normal.

[ this is going to be one of those things she'll never let go ]
( video )
You're never letting this go, are you?
[ and riku can tell. ]

[ insert kanyeshrug here ]

Alright. I guess it is pretty strange, anyway.
( video )
Well, I bet you're not even the strangest person here. [ if that helps!! ]

Something tells me you're good at this kind of thing.
