A Side//Ebony Repliku
Riku touched the mirror, saddened by the electric blue fingertips that reached up to touch his pale ones. He could see his dulled reflection, staring back at him with dilated eyes. He recognized that smudged ocean colour, but it was uncomfortably ironic that they were no longer his eyes.
It was unfair that the darkness had transferred to his replica. They were both tainted, both puppets to the shadows. Why was he the one to suffer the consequences of an ebony hell?
Shadows began to cloud the mirror. Riku whispered for him to come too, and lost him in obsidian.

KHL: Kingdom Hearts Literatures
I originally plotted this idea whilst thinking of Dante's guns in DMC = Ebony and Ivory. I thought the concept of using black and white on two characters in a double drabble would be interesting and different. I am stunned with the results (*self promotion over*  )I really like the idea of Riku and Repliku staring at each other -- is the mirror even real? Could they exist in a world where they are individuals? Also, I thought it interesting to have the colour and target spoken by the other's perspective. I hope you all enjoy this colour/drabble experiment. Kingdom Hearts Literatures ©  Broken - A Side © Me Kingdom Hearts Literatures @ Riku-of-Darkness. Repliku: Ebony ~~~ Zexion == Dk.

 DMC. ^_^And I this! What an interesting idea! I always wondered what Riku thought when he saw his replicated self. Other than: 'Am I really that fat?'. *Snort*(Sorry. Couldn't help it.) Ahem. This drabble flows so very nicely. With the sensory and the jealousy (which Riku is apt to flaunt). I can't wait to read the next one! -- "She has willingly pricked her finger, only to see the truth beneath the rose." Riku-of-Darkness  I never thought about that - "Am I that fat". Way to ruin my angst.  Thank you though. I was surprised how nice this drabble flowed out of my head. I was struggling with the concept for so long, that the ease of writing it the other night worried me.-- Wandering the rain soaked nights. Searching for a storm to wash away these blood-stained tears "If you are an Unknown, you must have a variable in your name." [Kat] "The road to hell is paved with adverbs" [Stephen King] NO, no! Trust me! It flows well!
I'm sorry I broke the angst. ^_^ I mean...if I saw myself walking around, I'd start picking myself apart. I guess Riku's too...Riku to really pay that kinda stuff any mind. :3 Maybe I'm just fickle.  -- "She has willingly pricked her finger, only to see the truth beneath the rose." Riku-of-Darkness Hahahaha. Sorry, I still think that was the best reaction in the world. It may have broken my angst, but I'm still laughing about it. I love your randomness.

 I've been told that before...at work...by my boss... *Snort* -- "She has willingly pricked her finger, only to see the truth beneath the rose." Riku-of-Darkness |
