Ansem always knew Riku would be gorgeous after his first time around. Gorgeous was an understatement to him, honestly. If there was a word close enough to Riku's beauty at that time, he would have said divine. The protégé's breathing had calmed by this point, but it still wasn't back to his silent ninja breathing it usually was, yet. It was slow and he was trying to stabilize it from his mouth, which was slightly ajar and completely bruised. "How do you feel, child?" he inquired, cautiously.

"Like I submitted to darkness a second time in the middle of running a marathon...in a good way."

Ansem made an incredulous face and paused before chuckling lightly at the odd answer. His pet laughed right along with him. "You'll be sore soon, so don't move unless you have to for a few hours."

"Soon? I'm sore now, Ansem."

"Think you'll survive?" the master of darkness teased.

"Haha, very funny. like having Sora kick my ass first wasn't bad enough."

"I'm sorry. Is there a particular pain killer you like best? Aspirin? Acetaminophen? Tylenol? Ibuprofen?" he smirked darkly. "Midol?"

Riku pulled his hair in playful irritation.

They let a moment pass in silence.

"Just...stay a while, would you?"

"As you wish, child."
