[Terra's flicking through his Cerevice for any news when Riku arrives, and that familiar voice makes him snap to attention. Had he realised his successor was going to drop in, he would have made himself a little more presentable and less... pathetic-looking. Then again, could he really disappoint Riku's opinion of him more than he already had?
Well, maybe he could. He'd drawn on the darkness inside him once again, back when he thought he was going to die from his wounds. Even under the circumstances, he wasn't sure it was the right thing to do, when it had accomplished nothing but fanning the dark fire inside him even further. He should have trusted the others would get him out of there safely... But once again, fear took control, that dangerous thing that keeps pushing him closer and closer to the darkness.
He sets his Cerevice aside wearily and looks back at Riku.]
...Yeah. I misjudged an enemy, and paid the price.
