Riku App #2 (I now have three accounts with two app posts...)
Name: Riku
Age: 16
Series: Kingdom Hearts
Canon: Roughly one year ago Riku was a nice, normal, only mildly sociopathic boy who sacrificed his world and everyone on it (minus his two best friends) to Darkness in a fit of cabin fever. His descent into darkness resulted in him becoming progressively more bitchy and badly dressed, until Our Hero Sora took him out and locked him on the other side of a big door for the sake offashion victims everywhere the Worlds.
After this royal ass-kicking, Riku holed up in the dark for a while and had a crisis of conscience. "I feel really bad about everything I did, my friends will never love me again, I can never face the Light, I smell bad..." etc. Fortunately, Mickey Mouse showed up and -- in all his classic D*sney glory -- basically told Riku there is always hope, take a bath, and stop whining. Consequently, Riku makes happy faces every time Mickey shows up, which just goes to show even little teenage world destroyers just need someone to have faith in them to make everything right.
Riku really does do his best to make amends for what he's done, if not in the most traditional of ways. He learns to accept both Darkness and Light, setting him down the path to Twilight, and as that term suggests his methods of 'helping' are not always particularly kind. Riku's priorities (along with his universe) are centered almost entirely on Sora and Kairi, their safety, and their happiness. And while Riku still has plenty of deep, dark emo crawling in his skin, he regains much of his old self -- cocky, confident, playful and snarky. And still incapable of dressing himself. He really should have stuck with black.
Sample App:
You know, I don't think I've ever been this glad to see land. Or at least I never expected I'd be happy to see a slimey, smelly, monster infested dump like this. This is what I get for letting Sora choose where to spend our vacation -- nice job, numbskull. He could have picked Wonderland, Atlantica, or Christmas Town, and instead has the bright idea to take Kairi to a swamp. Not just any swamp, either. It has to be one with a camp that runs in winter and has a sketchy background that's suspiciously made up of mostly zombies, and zombies, and more zombies.
I guess I figured it was a theme park at first; hard to think otherwise when there are purple gorillas in security uniforms, right? Then one of them asked me how tall you had to be to ride The Riku and I changed my mind. Anything that bleeds that much has gotta be real.
Looks like the barrier around this place is real enough, too. Leave it to Sora to find an adult rated world and get us stuck on it. The King's gummi ship probably would have been enough to get us out of here, if I still had it. Too bad a certain someone never bothered to mention the finer points of gummi ship travel. Little things, like them being flying deathtraps navigated by chipmunks who steer directly into the first radioactive lake they see, are the kinda things I'd like to read about in a manual. Oh, and? Not only are gummi blocks apparently edible, but they also have a lot more holes than you would think. Your lake monster is going to be enjoying itself for a while.
Not like I needed that thing anyway. There are better ways to get off a world, and I've even got almost all the supplies already. The vines were easy to get, since they couldn't keep their... leaves... off me, and the cloth for the sail can wait. Which means all that left is the wood... And since it doesn't look like anyone is using them anyway, I'll be borrowing your canoes.
When you see Sora and Kairi, tell them Riku's arrived to pick them up. I'll be over here, building a raft.
