I had to remake a whole half a minute of this, after my new virgin Vegas decided that even it didn't like a particular FFXIII clip of mine, and once I put a "dead" Hope scene... refused to open the file.
I know he's adorable, but that's just plain rude.

For all the people out there that cringed at the Namiku in Psychic- here you go. Not Namiku. Well, the end might be, just to bring things round again. Instead, it's Hope/Riku as friends (*cough*with benefits*cough*). Seriously, it's not my fault! Hope seemed like the type to need a lot of consoling! (And Blue, what happened last night is NOT leaking into this, I swear. ...I think.)

Zexion is kind of popping up in this one whenever Hope isn't clinging to Riku... I guess that's cause I haven't used him much before and I thought it would be right for the brothers to have a bit more talk/argue time. Marluxia is just there as a general organisation type dude, the one who picks Riku and Zexy up to take them away.
Uh, the walking bit. Where Riku's facing away from Hope, who looks down, and then says something a bit nasty by the look on his face and walks away? THAT was him saying goodbye and not telling Hope where he's going.
And, to tie things together a little more, Demyx is being genuinely nice to Riku, unlike Zexy and Vexen, who are just mocking him. I thought it would be sweet to link Demyx in there with Riku a bit more, and also would help to explain why Riku would recognise him as the enemy and try and fight him when he turns up to take Nami back...

...I don't know whether or not to kill Hope yet, though. I don't have many clips, I'm slowly downloading them one by one. But it seems over for him way too fast! T-T *angsty anguished wailing*
