The teddies have now arrived at Radiant Garden

Selvian: "This must be the place".

Sierra: "It looks so majestic".

Selvian: "Well, this place is called Radiant Garden. So it must have something to do with light and radiance".

Sierra: "This analysis would be right up the Mistress' alley".

Selvian: "Yeah, if only she was here, she'd be able to tell us all about this place. Or make a really good comment on it. I hope she's okay".

Sierra: "She'll be fine. Repliku has her, and he's Riku's replica, so again she's fine".

Little did they know a man was behind them, listening in on their conversation. Since Riku heard about the arrival of 'foreign creatures' from Master Yen Sid, he suspected that the teddies looked like such examples and so instead of pressing on straight to Ansem the Wise's study, he stopped to listen. The teddies continued to speak, however Selvian soon paused.

Selvian: "Uh... Sierra. I have this feeling like we're being watched?".

Sierra: "Oh hogwash! Who's going to watch us in this place? In-fact this whole area looks deserted to me".

It was too late. Selvian was now turned around as he rapidly tapped Sierra on the shoulder, gritting his and then he yelled.

Selvian: "It's Riku!".

Sierra quickly turned around and both bears screamed in fright.

Sierra: "Oh no! The Mistress said we weren't supposed to talk to him!".

Selvian: "It's too late now! We have to say something!".

Sierra: "But...".

Selvian: "He's probably wondering who the heck we are!".

Riku: "Hey, no need to yell. I'm right here".

Selvian: "Uh... Hi...".

Riku: "Hi".

Selvian (to Sierra): "You first".

Sierra: "No, you first please".

Riku: "I'll wait".

Selvian (to Sierra): "You're keeping him waiting".

Sierra: "No, hogwash, you're the one keeping him".

Riku: "Do I have to step in?".

Selvian and Sierra: "Uh...?".

Riku: "Alright. I'll assume that's a yes. You tell me your name first".

Selvian: "Ah... Selvian".

Sierra: "And... Mine is Sierra".

Riku: "Hello, Selvian and Sierra. As you already know, I'm Riku. What brings you here?".

Selvian: "Should we tell him?".

Sierra: "Of course we should!".

Selvian: "Okay, but I think we should all find a seat first. It's going to be a long story".

Originally, the meeting scene with Riku was going to be very formal, but I wanted to add in a little bit of humour, and Selvian and Sierra have gotten along well for the vast majority of my timeline, so I wanted to experiment with a bit of a hilarious and harmless bickering scene. I also want to explore all these different emotions with my characters overall as Kingdom Hearts seems to be all about exploring emotions and the feelings and experiences associated with them.
