the barn dance (4-video)

[The Video shakes as he speaks - that's because he's running as he's speaking, not wanting to waste a second of searching.]

Has anyone seen Minnie? She wasn't with me when I woke up this mornin'! It ain't like her ta do that!

[Hopping from rooftops, swinging from coral, invading every door... There's one possible option about why she's gone, but he's clearly in a bit of denial about it.]

If anyone sees a mouse with a crown in a pretty dress, with big ears and a thin tail, lemme know! What's she thinkin', goin' out without tellin' me... she's got no right ta make me worry!

...Don't forget to take care of yourself too, alright?

[Mickey, you've not got him worried. :| ~~Why did not one teach him a Sleep spell, dammit.~~]

[~~for this reason exactly.~~]

Yeah, yeah, I will. But I gotta give her my all.

[~~...NOMURA AND WALT DAMMIT.~~]

Your Majesty. [He stares at the mouse on the feed. There's the worry in his eyes, coupled with a small hint of amused exasperation. Not like he can talk though, with how far he was willing to go for his friends ~~and now his boyfriend, too~~.]

I'll look around at night, alright? Just... don't forget to rest, too.

[Ouch, that title stings. He actually comes to a halt, forced to look at his actions - and naturally, were the positions reversed, he'd use the same tone with Riku.]

... I'm sorry.

[And while Mickey stops, Riku is still on the move. To be honest, he feels bad for using that tone, but his worry for his friend won out over the guilt of talking to someone he respected and looked up to - figuratively - in such a manner. He shakes his head, part of him wondering what to say until:]

You and the others keep telling me that I don't have to do everything on my own anymore, but you keep doing the same thing. [There's a teasing hint in his tone now.] Let me help you out for a change. After all, we are friends, right?

[...Riku, your protag derp is showing for all to see.........]

[Well, nobody's perfect, and Mickey seems to keep proving that the longer he stays in Vatheon.]

... When I worry about those I care about, I forget the lessons that were given ta me. I'm sure if Minnie saw me now, she'd be pretty mad at makin' such a fuss.

[He knows. Oh, does he know. It doesn't mean that he wouldn't try to offer a hand, even if it's stained with his own darkness.]

I know. [He chuckles.] More than likely, but I think Minnie'd know it's because you care.

Hope she remembers that when I find her.

[since he's still very sure he will.]

If ya thought my lectures ta ya were bad, ya never heard hers.

...Remind me never to do something dumb with her around then.

[Or at all, but you know what he means. Your lectures were enough, your majesty. orz]

Where do ya think I got 'em from? Master Yen Sid wasn't my only teacher.

[ah, somewhat-insulting his loved ones is helping him calm down.]

Well, we do end up learning things from those close to our hearts...

[Snrk. Knowing Minnie, she would probably take that as a compliment and sass right back...]

[He's going to pay for this when she gets back, isn't he.]

Though it looks like we still have a lot ta learn.

[Yeeep, while he and the others get the popcorn ~~until he's possibly dragged into it, too~~.]

Seems like it.

[Okay, he's stopping that RIGHT NOW MISTER.]

So, uh... yer not gunna tell her how worried I was, right?

Well... my lips are sealed.

[He just can't say the same for the rest of the network. Oops?]

[Walt dammit.]

Gee, thanks.

[...have a pat on the shoulder, man. You're still like a beacon to him, here.]

I'll take part of the blame, if it helps any.

[He looks up, and smiles to see his friend. Just call him Lighthouse Man.]

It'd help a little.

... I really am sorry about makin' such a fuss. This... well. The castle has been in danger at least twice when I wasn't there, and this is the first time I didn't know where she was.

[...we have been undah da sea too long, mon.]

Don't worry about it. If it were Sora, Kairi or Katsu, I-

[He suddenly stops talking, and starts wondering why he didn't wear the Coat today.]

...I'd probably be the same way if I wasn't jaded to it. [Yes, yes his face did go a bit red there. Stupid teenage hormones.]

[AHAHAHA, THE TABLES HAVE TURNED, MY FRIEND. I mean, he raises his eyebrows, and lightly pats his friend on the arm.]

It's better that than being jaded. Feelin' sad is better than feelin' nothin'.

[SHUT UP YOU KNOW AND SAW NOTHING, MOUSE BRO. I mean it, along with shaking his head.]

Yeah, it is isn't it. [A small smile- uh oh, it's turning into a smirk.]

[oh nononono NO, good sir, you are NOT getting off that easily.]

I'm sure someday yer guy will make ya go through the same panic sometime.

[...Nomura dammit.]

I seriously doubt that. Even if he disappears, I know he can defend himself.

[like that's stopped you before, Riku.]

There's a difference between knowin' and knowin'. I know Minnie's got a few powerful sleeves up her sleeves, my friends will protect her, she's got plenty a' guards... and I'm still tryin' not ta have a heart attack over her.
