[Riku's face, when he appears on the network today, is a little exasperated, and a little apologetic. Behind him, something tiny and black moves, and he picks his hair up and away from it, pulling it over his shoulder for lack of anything else to do with it. A sharp-eyed observer will note that the black thing is a wing. It's small, but it's clearly a pointy, leathery bat wing. Presumably, there's a matching one.]

So... I guess I was ported out.

[His very first port-out after a year and a half. What a strange experience. Riku pauses. He's pretty sure he... owes some people an apology.]

Uh -- sorry. From what I can tell it hasn't been very long, though...? A day or so tops, I think. I saw Kagami made a post, so I thought I should clear things up.

[He's surprised you all panicked, honestly...]

I guess I should thank you all for worrying, though.

... I'm not surprised it became too much. That's dangerous. You're strong, to have managed to get past it.

I don't know about that. I wasn't alone. I mean, they couldn't take on that Malevolence themselves to help, but the others....they did support me through it.

[Sorey was kind of raised for the role. So it's not all that surprising he managed to pull through regardless.]

You're good to give them credit. It's true -- our friends help us stay strong, don't they? But it's true -- you did it yourself, in the end. I'd say you deserve credit for that, either way.
