Kh Worldbuilding headcanons: Destiny Islands Edition

No one ever talks about the original worlds in kh and i find that a travesty because these places are a really, REALLY good mine to play around with. (u can also use them or expand on them if you really like)

So im gonna share some HCs i have about the original kh worlds, starting with Destiny islands..... but before that some basics: also this is kinda long so under the read more it goes

In general:

Kh "worlds" arent really floating in space. the stylized icons we see in game are more akin to dimensional rifts rather than actual planets (seriously who thinks this is how the world looks fr)

Following on with the dimensional rift: as the "worlds" arent really pieces of the original world, they are something more akin as parallel dimensions or something along the lines of something like ff14 (mostly because i would rather die first than live in a world with 5 different versions of britain existing at the same time)

As much as dark road is cool, the explanation for the empty worlds is dumb and for the purposes of this exercise, instead ofthe worlds filling the people gradually after it is created, i consider that the worlds as they exist are the result of the surviving children of the war making their stories real in the fractured reality of the original world (it also follows the weird theme of reality/unreality that kh4 seems to go for) and it turning into a different version of earth as we know it, with some exceptions, such as monstropolis (which exists independently as a parallel land to earth in its canon) and Deep space (which is straight up NOT earth and was more like, the rift of lilo and stitch's world pointing at the high counselor's fleet BEFORE the actual movie started) and also the OG worlds who dont have something to be based on for reasons to be explained later.

the only world that exists in the ocean between as it is, is the Keyblade graveyard. because it was so majorly fucked up by the war it both shattered in the physical and dimensional way after it happened.

Now that that rant is out of the way, LETS GO TO THE MOST UNDERRATED WORLD IN THE SERIES:

Destiny islands is in fact, more than 2 islands, being a big archipelago with a bigger "main island" where our three protagonists live at. this one we have seen before in kh2

Destiny islands, is, by far, not the only chain of islands in the world. in fact, theres way more islands beyond the horizon.

We know the islands have a mayor, thus we know that they must have cordial diplomatic ties with different islands near them.

Due to FF characters existing here, i am very tempted to assure that some of the races from ff8 and ffX exist in this world (you are now imagining kimahri playing with a tiny kairi after diplomacy stuff with her dad just ended)

Due to DI being an original world, it is actually a shard of the original world that didnt really changed much compared to the other original ones. its major difference is that it is an ocean world like Wind waker hyrule or the Grand line from One piece

Magic is a real thing in the original worlds populace, you just really need to get good at it, learn it, be magical by default, or cheat and get a keyblade somehow

Religion in the og worlds strike me as something akin to the way people prayed to the aeons of yevon in ffx or the astrals of FF15. with people praying to the ff summons on a case by case basis and depending on their preference for patron gods. Ie: Leviathan being a goddess of the ocean and water who is prayed to by sailors or fishermen, while scholars prefer ifrit using an interpretation of the fire of knowledge. (you know. like a furry prometheus that doesnt get eaten by an eagle daily)

I'll probably go on more detail later, but for now, the summons that get prayed to the most in DI is probably Leviathan for the aforementioned reasons, Ramuh for nature and agriculture reasons, shiva for tradition and combat reasons (related to riku in my particular headcanon) And Titan for economical reasons, wow alex making the rock man into the economy guy i wonder where you have heard it before

Speaking of economy, DI currency totally has tiny paopu fruit symbols in its coins and bills, and its a legal course currency in its neighboring islands because they too dig the paopu fruit symbolism

Munny looks like malleable diamonds because it probably just morphs into the appropate currency depending on the world we're in, moogles only use them as they are because they are both the people doing synthing and also shady as hell. do not trust the pompom people.

Going back to the Paopu fruit: its quite a common tree fruit in the islands and in fact is industrially harvested in some islands both as an export and in-island use.

The paopu folk story is actually mostly just a misconception for an older tale. originally involving sailors and a promise to return home safe. it eventually turned into "sharing one will entwine your fates forever"

Paopu pastries are a common dessert, and paopu wine is used often in weddings.

Monsters ARE real in the islands and roam the most inhabited places. These are often hunt for game and for safety reasons

THAT MEANS, chocobos are also a thing people use in the most rural parts of the islands for fieldwork, transportation and sometimes food.

Blitzball is MAD popular and they Often do tournaments involving several islands. DI itself was almost a perpetual champion up until jecht retired, then they win every so often instead of always

Boating licenses are a thing, but kids can still use their little boats because they have to row them. think like, the difference between a bicicle and a motorbike.

There are bridges for tram systems between islands that are close to each other, usually reinforced for sea and storm reasons.

Legally speaking, equal marriage is a thing and even polyamorous ones because why being an ass about it.

Healthcare is mostly public, but there are Specialty care stuff in the main islands that costs money because of course it is

Because sora and riku are japanese names, i prefer the island to be something like a tropical japan, so most of the people in DI have japanese names.

That would be all for now. tune in next time when i tackle on Twilight town, who may or not be in perpetual twilight (is not)

hargrieve’s fic recs — may

happy june and happy pride month! quick reminder that characters (yes, even your comfort character) are fictional, and that sometimes other people have other headcanons and takes on them

as usual, this is divided into emo/light fic. yes this list has yaku morisuke paired with four different people, because I believe in yaku morisuke supremacy. there is a yaku ship for everyone out there I promise

seriously if you have any umbrella academy or MCU recs please feel free to send them my way, because sometimes I miss thinking about things that aren’t volleyball-adjacent :| as you can tell I am in very very deep

FANDOMS: HAIKYUU!!

things that made me feel feelings: 

eyes on the ball (eyes on me) by daedalust @/kurapikasdad on twitter

yaku/nishinoya; rated M; 3.7k; 1/1

main timeline + yaku finding out that nishinoya is quitting volleyball

“One glance up at Yaku Morisuke, and Nishinoya is bewitched by a wildcat of a schoolboy.”

cat and bird metaphors + a whole lot of angst

planet six by panyang @/doetries on twitter

kagehina; rated T+; 5.8k words; 1/1

kageyama and hinata’s relationship through time, in a non-linear narrative

this fic is criminally underrated and is so tender

highly convincing re: kagehina endgame. this fic says they are soulmates and I believe in it so hard

if ever your fortress caves by Flumes

hiruhoshi; rated T+; 27k words; 1/1

werewolf au where hoshiumi and others are werewolves and hirugami is a vet

this fic came highly recommended to me on twitter, and it totally lived up to the hype. the schweiden adlers and msby as wolf packs is *chef’s kiss* and I genuinely enjoyed every single cameo

everyone wants to court hinata shoyo!!! so true! so valid!

no werewolf media experience necessary (but I believe this is teen wolf-y)

shrapnel by nure

yaku morisuke/haiba lev; rated Gen; 13k words; 1/1

standalone in an unconnected series about miscommunication

non-linear narrative between current situation (a couple years after lev’s high school graduation) and history (lev’s first year)

this one is also extremely underrated

fic that is a little less serious:

crushes get handcuffed for twenty-four hours by rainshowers @/nanagojou on twitter

kuroo/daichi; rated M; 6.9k words; 1/1

(self-explanatory) au where they film a buzzfeed-type video where they are handcuffed together for 24 hours

it’s pretty much what you would expect from one of those videos :) the chemistry is sizzling and the writing is great :) I love them

HUSH by mareas @/adlerstrio on twitter

ushijima/sakusa; rated M; 6.0k words; 1/1

established ushisaku where sakusa has a thing for his fingers in ushijima’s mouth

this fic is so funny and even more tender. sakusa muses about intimacy and love while totally losing his mind

rip to fujita fr

i'll be cleaning up bottles with you on new year's day by comfortcharacters @/comfrtcharacter on twitter

iwaoi; rated T+; 3.8k words; 1/1

oikawa is a residential assistant, iwaizumi is his resident, and he and sugawara are planning a holiday party for his floor

fluffy and made me smile

everyone pressure dani to keep writing her college RA-verse bc i wanna see it

melatonin and caffeine by emeraldpalace @/emeraldpalace on twitter

kuroo/yaku/daishou; rated T+; 14k words; 1/1

kuroyakushou end up as college roommates. yaku pov

this fic is absolutely delightful. the character interactions are so canon and we get to see a lot of what drives daishou. it’s also refreshing to see a college au where they are all more or less put-together

favorite fic from this list I think

recs I received in my inbox:

安心 (Peace of Mind) by itachiyams @/itachiyams on twitter

sakuatsu; rated T+; 85k words; 4/4

from the recommender: “it's basically a sakuatsu slow burn // sakusa pov from the canon events and there's lots of national team shenaningans too”

the way our horizons meet by skiecas @skiecas

iwaoi; rated T+; 43k words; 1/1

written by the same author as one of my kagehina recs from march

hello @ravenclawboys I keep meaning to read this one but I am waiting until I finish my next big task so I can fully enjoy it
