(Friendship) Mickey & Riku Replica - Florence Nightingale

Mickey hadn't exactly planned on finding anyone, or even anything, in the realm of darkness. So finding the boy with Riku's face had been a rather great shock - especially considering that, as far as Jiminy's notes went, this boy was supposed to have vanished. It was beyond bizarre, but he couldn't just leave the clone there.

With an 'oof' and a grunt, Mickey had managed to carry the boy all the way back to his kingdom - the castle was large enough to house many guest rooms. He had given instructions to all the servants not to enter unless given direct permission, lest they overwhelm him. Besides, Mickey had his own questions.

So he patiently waited for the 'other' Riku to wake up, setting up a tray of food and tea. No doubt near destruction would cause quite the appetite.

... You're welcome, Mirr.

[He'll say it over and over again, if it makes his new friend happy.]

Get some rest, Mirr. We've got a lot of days ahead of us, Mirr.

You seem content on letting me stay here. [There's still uncertain, but part of him wants to believe Mickey is a good person.] I mean... I'm a wielder of darkness, yet you're okay with letting me live here.

... For a long time, I thought using the darkness meant you were a bad person. But... I've come to learn that darkness is another side of the light. It's a tool to use. I want to see the path you take, and where it leads you.

The path I take? I don't even know where to begin. All I've ever known is Castle Oblivion and the memories given to me by Namine, both Riku's and the false ones. I never thought I'd have a second chance at being my own person.

Well then, it'll be somethin' we find out together. We have all the time in the world. And I'll be more than happy to travel alongside you.

I still don't fully understand why you're being so nice to me, but I suppose I have no reason to object. [That and he really doesn't have anywhere else to go.] I guess we can try walking around the castle again tomorrow.
