Have you considered Riptide Laboratory?

Actually Riptide Laboratory has the same 'back in hand and need to recast' problem. Ha - maybe I should include Vanishing to protect Riku :). Or some flickering/phasing effects like Slip Out the Back or Hide on the Ceiling which could be used in several contexts?

hyalopterouslemur - Agree fully Asceticism is a good include. Riku is very mana heavy and vulnerable to removal for sure. Riptide Laboratory can get him back from a board wipe - but stopping exiling is harder. I could take the Sword out and put in Lightning Greaves or some similar equipment for another piece of Riku protection.

I see that not "every" creature you have is a wizard. With that, if it were I wouldn't suggest this card. But, I think Stonybrook Banneret would be great in this build.

Riptide Laboratory is also super OP response cards.

Thank you for your suggestions. I considered them and here is what I was able to come up with:

Riptide Laboratory - Believe it or not I'm trying to cut down on the number of non-basic lands for this deck, which is why some of the maybe board lands are sitting on the side. That's a good contender though so I'll add it to the maybe pile.

Mask of Memory - That's a good point. While i normally see extra card draw as never a bad thing, this deck does have a lot. Replaced with Sword of Feast and Famine. Personal favorite sword and it should help to play some of those extra cards that are being drawn.

Drown in the Loch - Swapped it in for Urza's Incubator

Otawara, Soaring City - Swapped in for an Island

Faerie Harbinger - Wife specifically nixed this card. She doesn't like tutors all that much and nearly nixed Demonic TutorGC too. I wanted to cry.

Riptide Laboratory oddly enough has some good synergy with your faeries.

Mask of Memory this deck has no trouble drawing cards. Upgrade this to any other equipment. My suggestion? One of the swords that ramps.

Drown in the Loch, Otawara, Soaring City and Faerie Harbinger should be in the deck.
