[Again, Riku manages to dodge, throwing crumbs of information as he answers only the parts he cares to. He could ask--about how he and Vanitas are acquainted, about the shadows and the puppets and everything in between--but that would be jumping at more bait and leaving Riku open to tug the string out of reach again. Annoying.]
I'd be surprised if you were.
[Friends, that is. If Riku nettles and dances around conversations with Vanitas to the same degree he does with M.K., he can only imagine the golden-eyed boy's exasperation.
Well, two can play at that game.]
Someone once said to me... [A thoughtful hum.] How did he put it? "Wouldn't you like to know"?
[He's speaking to Riku--or trying to. The spirit perched on his thigh like some oversized cat is distracting to talk over.]
