I thought about posting a different mini today, but I want to finish posting the post-able drabbles. This is related to any "OHS" prompt when Riku doesn't remember Xion and specifically 09. "Almost." They'll be longer after today, I promise!
Riku is running with the sound of a faraway tide in his ears.
xion xion xion xion...
He doesn't usually visit the clock tower, avoids it to avoid an unnecessary fight, to avoid her at all costs...
But who is she?
xion xion xion xion Xion...
Whatever he's looking for isn't here, where it's supposed to be, and he glances down the dizzying drop to find—
xion xion xion Xion Xion Xion...
Xion.
Riku always wakes up then, unsure of what he's just seen, the sound of the tide still ringing around him.
Someday, he's going to figure this out.
