There was no reply from Riku that day. When he'd finally returned, it was late, and he'd been tired enough after everything that all he wanted to do was get a shower to wash off the smell of prehistoric earth and go to bed.

The picture came on a piece of recycled paper, tinted green. The image was dynamic, though amateurish of course. Riku depicted himself fighting off a hoard of dinosaurs along with Amaterasu. Way to the Dawn was prominently featured. The time machine was in the background. Perry the Platypus sat next to it, looking as if he'd snuck in by accident and was watching the events unfold with his typical blank stare. So that's where he'd gotten to. Perry did have a habit of winding up in random places on the SOL anyway. The time machine and Perry were quite small, however, the picture focusing on Amaterasu and Riku fighting side by side. Riku also was clearly injured, judging by the amount of red crayon used. The bottom had a quick follow up doodle of himself looking fine and sparkling leaves above his head. Clearly it'd been added to make sure Namine wouldn't worry.
