[Target acquired. Axel's known Riku was here for a while now--he checks that list of residents every few days, just in case. He never actually met the kid in Castle Oblivion, but if he's anything like his clone then Axel figures maybe it's best to make a certain kind of first impression. Namely, the kind that impresses upon Riku that while he's not necessarily a threat so long as Riku behaves, he could be. Yes, that sounds like a good plan.
[Creeping up behind the boy, Axel sort of looms over him. ... Actually, he seems a bit taller than he thought he would be: the Replica was definitely shorter than this, but at least a few inches, he's certain. Interesting.
[He's about to just snort a laugh when Riku whirls, but the words register almost too sharply and he actually gives a start instead. Lea. Did he just call him--? ... Wait did he say Keyblade?
[Riku quickly corrects himself (though as an inquiry. How interesting), but it's too late for takebacks. How in the Underworld does Riku know what his name is? More than that, how does he know what his other's name was? Rolling his shoulders back in an attempt to regain whatever poise he lost, Axel tugs his hood back.]
Bingo~ I'm impressed, Riku, I didn't expect my reputation to precede me quite this much.
[Or, you know, at all. Sora was sleeping in a giant egg. Had Naminé talked about him? Curiouser and curiouser...]
