what was riku's reaction when he made a semi-living being out of his feelings for sora in neverland? did maleficent teach him this, or was riku in his room for hours, shifting and crafting the darkness until some semblance of his best friend formed? did he fuss over every detail? (his hair parts this way/his lips are more rounded/he has more baby fat here) did he cringe away at those yellow eyes at first? that hollow voice that was and wasn't sora at the same time? did he fight with it? yell at it? pound his hands against a ribcage that sucked in every hit and just stood there with sora's stupid smile on it's face?

did he hold it tight in his arms, begging the shadow to say 'I love you'?

did he cry as it said nothing?

[adoptionsectioninfo]

There are two sides to the process of informing a child about it's adoptive status: First of all the information has to be passed on to the child and secondly the child has to understand the information it has been given.

It is more than likely that a 4 year old child can be made to refer to itself as "adopted" and further tell that it has grown in another woman's womb before being adopted by it's present parents. This however does not go to say that the child has understood what an adoption really means. More so it has to be assumed that due to the child's use of very specific vocabulary related to the issue of adoption the parents are lured into the false belief that their child fully understands the concept of adoption. By doing so, the cognitive capability of a small child is highly overestimated. It takes approximately 10 years for an adopted child to fully grasp the information about its adoption which they have been given at the age of 3 or 4. This knowledge was the result of the scientific research by BRODZINSKY and his colleagues during the "Rutgers Adoption Project" (1986). The scientists examined 100 adopted children in comparison to 100 non-adopted children. There were 20 children in each age group: 4-5 years old, 6-7 years old, 8-9 years old, 10-11 years old and 12-13 years old. All adoptive children were adopted within the first 2 ½ years of their life. Their understanding of the adoption was evaluated on the basis of a 6 grade chart.

Although the 4-5 year old children had all been informed about their adoption most of them did not have any understanding of the meaning of an adoption (grade 0). At an average age of 5 years and 6 months most examined children either assumed that all children in general were born to their biological parents or that adoption and giving birth are the same (grade 1). At the age of 7 years and 2 months children could distinguish between adoption and birth. They viewed it as 2 different means of becoming a part of a family. The relationship between the adoptive parents and the child was described by the children to be a permanent one. However they could not articulate a reason for the permanence of this relationship other than voicing the assumption that "The child is now owned by its adoptive parents" (grade 2).

sorry I wasn't listening I was vividly daydreaming about sora and riku touching their foreheads together and promising to protect one another but I'm sure what you were saying was maybe just as cool idk

#ark.txt #Kingdom Hearts #Sora #Riku #soriku

[landprince]

riku became really good at casting healing magic because while he and sora were both reckless little kids and both often wound up coming home covered in small scrapes, cuts, and sand from their epic battles on the beach it was sora who was more injury prone

riku at first would keep a small first aid kit he put together himself in his pack whenever the two went anywhere so he could patch his best friend up before dragging him home and it was by sheer luck and chance that one day he managed to cast a very low level cure on sora after the younger boy slipped when trying to bash open a coconut on a rock and sliced into his hand

riku couldn't heal it perfectly, there's still a little scar on the outside between sora's thumb and wrist that riku kisses whenever he's feeling affectionate, but after that riku learned how to stitch together wounds without leaving any visible markings

riku would practice and practice until eventually he could cast curaga without even needing to make a gesture and whenever sora asks for healing he often places a little peck on his cheek before casting

I like the idea that on valentine's day sora goes through all the motions of daily life until nighttime where he spends so much time making dinner, setting his plate up so nicely, placing a single red rose in a vase and making dinner an event but after everything's done he's sitting there about to eat but he can't pick up his utensils because there's an empty plate across from him that he doesn't remember setting and he's trying to remember why he set it, who he set it for, and just starts crying without realizing it

thinking about a soriku au where sora finds werewolf!riku as a big wolf dog that's injured and takes him home to tend to him only to wake up to human-looking riku making him breakfast in the morning like hello you made sure I didn't bleed out last night stop screaming that's loud how do you like your eggs btw

[landprince]

riku voice: I love you. I want our flesh to melt together until even god can't tell where either of us starts or ends. I want our blood cells to collide like a car crash and nothing survives the wreckage, but like a phoenix from the ashes, a single heart beat breaks out stronger than either of ours do alone, because we're so entwined in metal and skin and blood that we've formed a new thing that no one can tear apart. I want to kill for you. I want to taste my blood on your lips and eat your heart out through your mouth and take care of it in my own chest. I only feel safe when I'm nestled in the gore that keeps your organs secure and I swear the world grows grayer when you're not around.

sora: riku you can't say this every time I come back from the store

make sure you think about soriku so hard that you give yourself a stomachache from it

#ark.txt #soriku #this is a positive post #love things so hard it gives you physical symptoms

[landprince]

there's blood on both their hands. there's a conjoined leash wrapped tight around both their throats. the way they resort to violence at the drop of a hat for one another because the urge to protect, to keep safe, is so strong. there's blood on their teeth an tongues and they can't even taste it when they kiss anymore. the way holds become bruising. the way a hug becomes a prison.

i've killed for you before and i'll do it again. there's dirt and blood under both our nails but we're a matching pair and i'll help wash away the filth if you want me to. i've killed for you before and i'm doing it again right now. i think you're beautiful covered in dirt and blood against the sunset. i'm jealous but so are you and we get on like a house fire and I hope we never burn out but if we do i hope we take this whole world with us. every day i'm in awe of you. every day i get a little more frightened by you. i've killed for you before and i'm burying the bodies right now in your backyard so you never forget that i'm willing to do anything for you whenever you ask. i don't remember the last time our kisses didn't have our mouths tearing at each other like hungry dogs. i love you to the point of sickness.

[landprince]

Riku had been keeping a constant vigil over Sora since the younger boy had arrived. He was a dutiful guard, never once slacking on his watch over him as the boy slept peacefully on the bed Riku was given weeks ago. 

Maleficent had done him a huge favor in wiping Sora’s memories away once he was brought to Hollow Bastion kicking and shouting in Riku’s arms. Riku had merely shushed Sora, cooed at him, and tried his best to placate the irate keyblade wielder before the boy fell like a sack of potatoes to the floor with the witch’s magic. 

Worry had seized his heart momentarily before Maleficent explained it was just a simple sleeping spell. The anxiety flooded out of him in such a rush it made the young man dizzy. The woman then placed a glowing hand over Sora’s closed eyes, held it there for a moment, and then retreated from the room with a gentle: “You’re welcome, Riku. I do hope this pleases that rotten little heart of yours.” 

Riku didn’t deign a reply. 

He merely scooped the unconscious boy up in his arms and carried him away to his rooms. Lonely were the many nights he spent here, the loss of his friends eating away at him constantly. 

When Riku ran into Sora in Traverse Town, he was elated, but jealousy came roaring to the forefront when Sora was soon surrounded by what he would later learn to be the King’s court magician and guard. 

Anger and jealousy had warred inside his chest when the stupid duck had claimed Riku wasn’t able to go with them, and instead of causing a scene then and there, Riku had chosen to tactically retreat. Maleficent had been kind to him when he had arrived at her doorstep --befuddled and excited in equal measure to be in a new world-- but he valued her opinion even if there was something underhanded about it. 

“If you desire the boy so much, simply take him,” she had instructed. 

The thought of just… forcing Sora to go with him made Riku’s stomach hurt, but after several incidents of back and forths with the younger boy during trips to multiple other worlds, Riku was now able to admit he missed Sora more than he valued the boy’s freedom and consent. 

Riku didn’t even wait for Sora to become alone before snatching him up. He sent Heartless in droves to distract the dog and duck (he never bothered to learn their names, they were just obstacles in the way and needed to go), and while they swarmed the pair, Riku dragged Sora through a door of darkness back to Maleficent’s home. 

Sora, being Sora, had been excited at first to see him, making Riku’s heart flutter for a moment with happiness before the boy asked to return. His “friends” needed him. 

Anger soured his delight immediately. 

Childishly, Riku shoved Sora, making the boy stumble to his knees where he looked up at him with such wide eyes as if he couldn’t believe Riku would do such a thing. 

And the confusion and trust in those blue eyes made Riku’s breath catch. 

A heat bloomed in his chest and Riku clasped the front of his shirt in a fist.

“What about Kairi?!” he shouted. “What about me?!” 

“You’re important too, but they need me right now!” Sora had tried to defend. “Riku, please…” 

Riku scoffed. Tears had burned in the corners of his eyes as Maleficent’s previous words came rushing back. 

He has no need of you now. 

But now here Sora lay. Asleep. Peaceful. Completely vulnerable.

Riku ran a hand through spiky chestnut hair. 

“You’ll see, Sora,” he whispered, trying to keep his voice low so as not to disturb his best friend. “It’ll be better now that we’re together again. We’ll have our adventure. We’ll never be separated again. I promise it’ll just be us from now on.” 

It’ll be just like it was supposed to be.

I put together a small KH fic rec after being asked to by at least one anon

some of these are rather old and dated (especially the ff ones) but idk they're fics I read and just stayed with me and I like them a lot so hopefully you guys do too

soriku centered

You're A Boy! (ff.net) RATED M "You're a boy!" Are Sora's first words to Riku when they meet at 10 years old. Riku moves in next door and they spend their childhoods together, learning, growing and loving.

Love is Blind (ff.net) RATED M The boy saw colours in the sound of a crackling fireplace, tasted feelings in cupcakes and marshmallows. Sora made Riku think that maybe he was actually the blind one, and not Sora.

Gravity (ff.net) RATED T When Sora's parents sign him up for a summer climbing camp, he's less than enthusiastic. But with some interesting new friends, and a handsome, infuritating boy to deal with, this week could be more interesting than he thought

victory tastes sweeter when i'm with you (curovogel on ao3) RATED T It’s a victory lap. That’s all it is.

Celestial Bodies (ao3) RATED E ASTRONAUT AU!

Sora is an enthusiastic environmental scientist, while Riku is a reserved engineer. Both are stationed on the International Space Station, orbiting the Earth in close quarters for the next six months.

How will they adjust to a life free from the weight of gravity and Earthly expectations?

namixi centered

Sugar and Spice (ao3) RATED G "Sugar and spice, and everything nice, that's what little girls are made of..."

Except Naminé is a vampire who lives in Halloween Town. She's not supposed to be sweet and gentle, but she is. It's just the nature of her personality. So she lives with other misfits and outcasts, and longs for things she cannot have.

And makes a new friend, purely by chance.

Dancing With Your Silhouette (ao3) RATED G Sometimes, Naminé thought she was too lonely. She was halfway in love with a statue simply because she wanted someone to listen to her and she poured her soul into making the sculpture of the girl absolutely perfect. She didn't expect her to come to life, didn't expect her world to be turned upside, didn't expect to fall in love with someone who had once been carved out of marble.

Xion had a way of making the complicated things simple.
