Not really sure how he could find a way to stay. I mean, we didn't get a choice in being dragged here so I think leaving is the same way. Sometimes, that's just the way it works.
There's nothing that says he's gone yet. His NV still works, even if he's not answering. He's your best friend! If you don't believe in him, who else is going to? Come on.
I do believe in him, but that covers the fact that I believe he could get out of here and find someone who could get everyone who wants to leave out of here. [The faint sound of clinking glass.] I believe that all the stuff Cohen said means it isn't really Riku. That he wasn't taken by either of the companies, that he's really good at hiding when he wants to and can survive any situation no matter how tough it gets.
But even Riku knows that he could leave here at any minute, we even talked about it.
[No devil water...just extremely tired, hot and exhausted. Also, cleaning up a mess he made in Riku's apartment yesterday in a reckless search of his SERO stuff - broken glass must not be walked on. C'mon man, it's a bad time for Riku to go missing in this heat. May not be as bad as Agrabah but Sora's got good reasons for being extremely concerned. Besides, even though Riku said he was okay with staying Sora has mixed feelings about it.]
Now I never said I was giving up. I could never give up on looking for Riku. Even if Riku did end up leaving you can bet your Keyblade that I'd still look for him. I'm just sayin' that it's a possibility.
[Hasn't had a chance to go get those drinks yet with Jubes. If he decides to go.]
It's just an expression. You know, it's possible that he's on one of those round trip things back to the island and will come back to tell us all about the future!
voice;
It would make it harder to search.
voice;
...you okay?
voice;
[A pause.]
I guess so. It's been 8 days since I've heard from him. What if...he's just gone?

voice;
Yeah, people can leave. But not everyone does. It doesn't make sense to just give up unless there's a reason.

I wouldn't bet that. I use them. But--good. Because I don't think he's gone yet.

voice;
Oh...yeah, I remember hearing about those. I guess that'd be okay, for him. [But not for Roxas. Trips to the future are for people with futures.]
