Since Riku was feeling better, the old routine was starting up again. Namine had missed their drawing exchanges while he was sick, and then while he was sleeping so much. This week things seemed to be a little better, though she'd been worried for him last week.

There was at least enough time for her to draw something for him. It seemed like they were getting some of their powers back this week. She'd seen both his and Xion's keyblades return to them on Cambot, and she was happy for them. Her realization about her own abilities had come a little later.

Really, it shouldn't have surprised her. It was the only special ability she had, even if it seemed more like a burden sometimes. Even if she didn't want to tell everybody, she could at least tell Riku, though. He could find a way to let Sora know without broadcasting it.

So her picture was a simple one of her and Sora, with a thought bubble connecting them. Inside the thought bubble was one of the images she'd gotten from Sora's memories: Sora and Riku talking to Yen Sid in his tower.

It seemed she'd understood. That next afternoon Riku got down to work. It took him quite a while, and he ended up taking a break at one point to eat and hit the Rec Deck to get in some exercise. It wasn't until maybe 10 pm before the pictures were delivered.

Riku had drawn a picture of him and King Mickey amongst the white thrones of the Organization. In those thrones were various members clad in black and hoods up. Two members had their hoods down and they were on their way to intercept the Keyblade wielders. They appeared to be Ansem Seeker of Darkness and Xemnas. Meanwhile, Mickey and Riku were running for one throne in particular; atop it sat a sleeping Sora. At the bottom was a message: "I think all of us need to talk about this."

The second picture was split by a line. On one side was Riku looking at his room. It was messy. His room generally was a little, but it was never anything that couldn't be cleaned up in two minutes, tops. The other side showed Riku looking less-than-happy. His room was still messy, but sheets had been torn off the bed, dresser drawers were open, and all the wads of failed pictures on the floor had been moved, a few re-opened. One that was uncrumpled Riku labeled with an arrow. "Your last reply."

Namine was getting ready to go to sleep when the two pictures arrived, so she set them face down on her desk to look at the next morning. Otherwise, she really would have stayed up far too late working on a response. As it was, she'd caught a glimpse of them and did spend some time thinking about what they meant before managing to fall asleep.

After breakfast the next day, she set to work on two new pictures. The first one was very similar to the one Riku had drawn, except that in it, Riku was fighting the Seeker of Darkness while Micky fought Xemnas. Sora remained asleep in his throne, and the other cloaked figures had question marks over their heads. Her not only said "Me, too."

The second picture was much more simple. Again, the paper was split in half, each side depicting one of their rooms. In each room stood a shadowy figure looking through everything. She seemed to be using question marks in her pictures a lot these days, and this one was no exception. The same could said of post-its, because she added one with the message "Something else to discuss with the others?"

She didn't manage to deliver the pictures until after lunch.
