[Ever since Ven returned to the village he's been on-edge... to put it lightly. Between the draft and his encounter with Vanitas, he's not only exhausted, but pretty scared at this point.

That's why, as he's making his way through the village and back towards his house, he's carrying his Keyblade with him and stopping occasionally just to make sure he's not being followed.

Just don't be surprised if he's a bit jumpy; kid's got a lot on his mind.

And when he finally makes it back home...]

[Voice//Filtered 100% from Vanitas]

You know, fighting a real war's nothing like fighting the Unversed. It's way more serious, and people die out there, on both sides... It's dangerous and kinda scary.

[He pauses for a few seconds.]

But I'm glad I could help. Even if what the Malnosso do is wrong, that battle was about more than just them. Plus, it feels good protecting people; it's a better reason to fight than just killing.

[And with that off his chest...]

How's everybody doing right now?

Huh?

[...Oh, it's just Rika. Phew.]

No, don't worry about it. I should've paid more attention.

It looks like we both should have been paying more attention.

Yeah, but that's okay.

[A beat.]

So what're you up to, Rika?

Mii. I was taking a walk.

What were you doing?

Well, I was thinking of going home for a bit. I just got back, and I wanted to make sure everything's okay. Maybe get some rest.

[He pauses, then shrugs.]

But, y'know, maybe a walk's just what I need. Do you mind if I tag along?

Not at all. [She begins to walk.] Are you sure you aren't too tired?

I'll be okay!

[And, of course, he'll walk alongside her.]

Even if I am kinda beat, I'll just take a nap later.

We could also stop by and get something to eat at my house. Maybe that will give you some energy.

As long as that's okay with you. I don't wanna be too much trouble.

You won't be any trouble at all. I'm hungry myself.

Then lead the way!

[He grins; having a bite to eat with a friend is definitely a good way to lighten the mood.]

[Rika grins back at him as she starts to walk towards her house.]
