My kingdom hearts ships really just have become yes.

I straight up made this list because at somepoint imma draw these ships whether it's aus or not.

I like Sornami this I don't know why but I always felt Sora have more chemistry with Namine even if it's based off fake memories for the first half. But also I'm still slightly prefer them with others as well.

Love soriku there's no question their I reblog it like alot the ship has stuck with me sense kh2. And hasn't ever left. But other than that I'm a sucker for friends to lovers troop and this was the first friends to rivals to enemies to friends to loves. I'm not one who normally like rivals to lovers or enemies to lovers but this ship opened that up for me especially with how Riku tries so hard to redeem himself for Sora when he doesn't even have to.

Sorkai in kh 1 is great but shaky about it later on especially with reading the novels and looking at the translation of kh 3 also cause I think Kairi deserves better than how Sora treats her sometimes. It's like she's an after thought sometimes and it sucks.

Now Kairi with anyone else is higher then sorkai like roxiri, vankai, venkai, namikai, xion x kairi and sometimes and this is really just sometimes Odette x Kairi. I love all the ships and how their concepts could be.

I love namixi, rokunami, rokunamixi (ot3 like I think it'd be wholesome if they all were together and caring for eachother), rokushi these just are wholesome regardless of how you look at them.

Repliku and Namine I don't really ship Riku in Namine because I think Nomura shot that down instantly by changing the cutscene but also I liked the idea of Riku treating Namine, Kairi and Xion all similar sense he tends to interact slightly similar with each of them. But Repliku and Namine is both sad and wholesome it's probably due to the biased I have for liking the fan made trio with her the lost trio.

Vanami and Vankai so I got a reason for liking these two ships one the concept of Vanitas probably seeing Kairi as weak (in his eyes) or something but growing and interested in her for standing up and facing him despite that. Maybe they'd start off at odds not liking eachother or Vanitas being interesting while Kairi just sees him as a threat. The difference with Namine is I think he'd slightly mellow out not to much but find the fact she can manipulate memories fascinating. Maybe she reaches out wanting to help him even if he's full on darkness she probably would want to help like with Repliku but this time she feels she can is in more control to.

Okay okay the ships Namikai so I liked the aspect of how when they connected they have a light connection not to say that means anything but when Kairi needed someone Namine came in kh 2 and understood her like no one else even if she is technically a form of her Namine develops into her own person outside of Kairi and I just think it's wholesome which ever way you see it platonic or romantic.

Xion and Kairi I think in Xions case this ship is interesting to say the least not that it's bad just sense Xion in that weird grey area, she's Kairi, Sora and Riku at the sametime she develops on her own but still was the memories of Sora of Kairi and possibly Riku as well (cause why else did she experience a memorie only Riku has) so I guess she could have feelings for Kairi off Sora's memories of her but then again as she developed and Kairi slowly grow feelings over her seeing Xion becoming stronger despite her struggles.

I weirdly like Kairi and Strelitzia as a concept it's cute and I feel like wholesome from most comics or people who've talked about it. They tend to have wholesome ideas.

Venkai okay this one is just yes for me while her time away from Sora and training with Aqua she could get to learn not only combat but that she doesn't have to mimic others. From Kairi in Melody of memories in the Japanese translation she seems to blame herself slightly about Sora's death but not only that but from her combat in kh 3 it mimics mainly Sora's but with some of Riku. With Kairi's character constantly trying to catch up to both I feel like with time she lost a bit of herself due to that. From not finding her own way to train or fight that's why I think not only with the training from Aqua could she have time to reflect and think but get advice as well. In that time whether romantic or platonic I think Kairi and Ven would interact alot getting to know eachother and it being healthy to see the Wayfinder trios interactions. It might make her miss her friends but also might make her resolve to grow stronger that much firm. Now to the way I see Venkai sense Ventus is treated as the kid within the Wayfinder trio having someone around his age or also treated could lead to interesting bonding or Ventus mentioning how after all they been through Aqua and Terra still treat him like a kid. Kairi who probably doesn't really mind bring treated like she's younger much but might open up a bit more. Maybe over time they both talk about their worries or the events that happen to find some sort of closure. I think even if Ventus and her I think would he cute I also know full well it can be platonic as well.

Roxiri I will die on this rarepair ship. Okay actual reason I just love the concept the struggle with Roxas not knowing if she likes him for technically being a part of him or if his feelings are his own or Sora's (yes Xion probably go through that struggle to) while Kairi might end up hanging around him for see that he feels left behind to. I know Nomura doesn't address it much but from days and both Xion and him wanting to see where Alex went to when Xion forced a fight on him I do think Roxas should have a bit more struggle with those two events especially with them coming back not saying they wouldn't be friends again I just think they should talk about it maybe there's a stiffness in the air till they interact and in this time Kairi who also feels left behind alot probably talk about it growing a slow bond. From Kairi giving suggestions like Roxas talking it out especially sense thats how her and Axel worked it out. And Roxas letting her know that she doesn't have to face things along or feel left behind and to go at her pace. Maybe they could start having small bit training like he did with Xion in-between her training with Aqua. I feel like Roxas though would probably start off a little bit distant when she approaches probably dealing with the fact now that he's out only to find out Ventus is there and he looks like him exactly. Roxas struggles didn't really get addressed much but I do think if they were Kairi might help him out a bit even if it's just advice. The concept just intrigues me and I love it so dear.

Lastly RokuNamiXi I like Xion and Roxas I personally prefer rokunami a bit more but I also love the concept that they would just date together from me shipping all three pairs of Namine and Xion, Roxas and Xion and Roxas and Namine. I didn't wanna just let any of them be a third wheel. I think it'd be wholesome and sweet to see them all dating eachother from having feelings for eachother.

#kh ships #soriku #sorkai #rokukai #rokunami #rokushi #rokunamixi #roxiri #vanikai #venkai #vennami #vannami #namine x xion #kairi x xion #namikai #kairi x strelitiza #sornami #sora x namine #repliku x namine

Hey can i hear abt ur passed pawn duo/sora kairi bbs theory pls im rlly curious

AAAAAA IM SO HAPPY U ASKED OK so for me i think they’ve been dropping hints in each game for a very long time but it’s easy to miss them.

The biggest one as of recent is in MOM where Kairi tries to find Sora in her memories. She might have thought he returned to her like Vanitas had Ventus’s past memories after being split from him in the way they were (KH3 novel states this) so that’s why I believe she chose the memory search method. She thought it’d be the most productive way to save Sora because he’s not just a product of himself but the old Kairi as well. He had her old memories for a very long time and it helped shape who he is even if it was on a subconscious level. Xehanort says those memories long gone and that implies Kairi’s old memories went SOMEWHERE.

But why do I think this? I’ve got a few examples.

Kairi didn’t want to leave the islands but Sora held an interest in Kairi’s home world. “Xion came from Castle Oblivion. That’s probably why she was asking about the place.” Riku runs operations for the Sora search out of Radiant Garden where Kairi is from. Ienzo states he hasn’t seen Sora since the castle but…he never saw Sora at Castle Oblivion. Sora also is the one to help restore Radiant Garden. And a small note I enjoy is Sora apologizing for lying to Ariel about not being from another world. Ariel isn’t mad and states if he can visit other worlds, maybe she can too. Reminds me of Sora looking like he thinks Riku is talking to him when he’s telling Kairi it’s thanks to her he thought of trying to go to another world. He might’ve gotten credit if he was honest about who he used to be. If he even knows. Shang also gets upset at Mulan for lying about her identity and Sora even expresses he can relate to her in the manga version.

(Maybe for different reasons but the reading of what gender you view him as is up to you. Personally, I read him as a trans guy.)

Sora makes the difference in helping save Aqua. Aqua stated she felt like she met Kairi for a reason and Sora helping save her after ten years of suffering in the Dark World sounds like a pretty big reason to me. He could also use her weapon Master Defender which Kairi touched Aqua’s weapon when they met and people have theorized that’s how Kairi can use Destiny’s Embrace so…wouldn’t the same be possible for the old Kairi?

Xion looks more like Kairi but she has a lot more similarities to Sora in her personality that Riku himself can’t help but notice in the Days novel. It wasn’t just him seeing Xion as Sora. He felt like he couldn’t lie to her because of how much Xion and Sora had in common. She also stays at Hollow Bastion after running away. From this, I think she’s supposed to be a hint that the old Kairi has been Sora right under our noses this whole time. Xion also expresses worry about Kairi in the Days novel that’s very reminiscent of Sora’s care for her. Namine actually keeps her promise to be real friends with Sora through Xion too. My favorite indication of this is Data Sora asking Data Namine if she kept her promise “to the me I don’t know”. That’s why them talking happily in the KH3 ending is even sweeter.

That’s just some of my reasons but I’m out of energy so we can continue this in another ask later if you’re interested! I’m really happy to know people are curious about this because it feels like it’s becoming more and more real with each game.

Quadruplets brother au

(My other account got a revamp so I’m kickstarting this account off again with the au that I wanted to post years ago but I was too shy too. Hope I get to brain rot about this again!)(this is obviously almost 3 years old and not at all fleshed out as much as my current au’s are but we had to start somewhere right?😅.)

So this au has been in my head for SO long and I thought I’d share it.

It starts off with their mother and father who one day decided to have a baby. Well, they weren’t expecting 4. They only bought stuff for one baby and didn’t have enough money for the other three. But despite that they continued to try to raise the children anyway. They couldn’t and decided to put all of them up for adoption (because they didn’t want them separated).

All 4 end up in an adoption center ready to be adopted at any time. But, Something happened in the adoption system where the 4 were registered as just themselves and not as quadruplets. So all 4 were adopted around the same time but by different families.

Ventus was adopted by Aqua and Terra (the Way-Finders)

Vanitas was adopted by Xehanort with his sons Ansem, Xemnas and Xehanort Jr who they call junior (he’s just young Xehanort). (The dark family)

Sora was adopted by Aerith and Zach (the fairs)

Roxas was adopted by Cloud and Tifa (the strifes)

They spent about 4 years without each other until kindergarten where a mutual friend (an oc of mine don’t worry bout it rn) of there’s pointed out that they look the same, and even got confused with them (as people who aren’t used to twins, triplets etc do). The teacher notices this and is like “wait a minute-“ and calls for a conference with the parents. They immediately notice the similarities and get in touch with the adoption center. They figure out that the boys were in fact quadruplets and they go off on the center, I kid you not.

They do a lot of government stuff and all the parents become the legal guardians of the boys. I guess you can say that their co-parenting. Since they’re co-parenting, the boys switch houses every month or so.

Ok now time for other characters and their significance to the story.

Xion is their cousin. Her mother and father really wanted to stay in touch with the boys, and even help get the boys in contact with their birth parents (unsuccessfully).

Kairi and Naminé are twins in this au, kairi is sora’s childhood friend and Naminé is Roxas’.

Riku is Sora’s and Kairi’s childhood bestfriend. His parents go abroad often and because they’re so close to Aqua and Terra, Riku stays with them for most of the time.

Xemnas is Xehanort’s son. He started a bakery called “13” and everyone who works there are called the “organization members”.

Ansem is Xehanort’s oldest son,

Junior (young Xehanort) is a second year in college.

Aqua is a dance instructor, she has her own studio in radiant garden (which would be a country?? Ion know I didn’t think that far)

Extras:

Kairi part times at aerith’s flower shop and Naminé too when she has time.

Vani is really into rock and he’s saving up so one day he will go to one of his favorite band’s concert.

The boys actually have days where they all sit down and talk to get stuff off of their chest or just relax. They do it on Saturday since “Saturday is for the boys”

During their Saturday time they lock themselves in their room (of which ever house they’re in for that Saturday) with a sign on the door that says “keep out” and no one is allowed inside until they’re done.

So I’ve been debating back and forth whether or not to do this because I knew it was gonna be a lot of work. But you know what? Screw it!

Here’s a cohesive list and description of all, 2+ hours (I think…), of my KH (mostly KHUX) animation ideas

You know… in case someone cares lol

(Four things before we start)

(If you look at a script and there’s nothing there, try looking at the comments, chances are I’ll have notes on the side)

(If a idea has a script the descriptions will most likely be more vague. I need to save time somehow lol)

(Unless it’s Xehaqus or Soriku, shipping wasn’t the intent but if that’s what floats your boat don’t let me sink it)

(No pressure to read all of these descriptions and scripts or listen to all the songs or whatever. It is so much and I know that. I honestly appreciate that you even clicked/tapped "Keep Reading" lol)

Let’s start off with my…

Pre-UX Finale Ideas

These ideas tend to be a bit outside of cannon/outdated now but they still haunt me when the song comes on

This is also the most you will get of any non-UX character lol

Song: Ready as I’ll Ever Be

Character(s)/Game Focus: KH 1 (endgame)

Description: Varian’s sections are Riku pre possession (first part when he steals ‘Sora’s’ keyblade, last part him getting possessed by Ansem). Cassandra’s sections and the “I’ll save my home and family” is the Radiant Garden Restoration Committee doing things to help (what I presume they were doing before they just kinda, show up at Hollow Bastion), and Rapunzel and her dad’s(??) sections as well as the “prove they can trust me” are Sora and the Beast.

This idea is primarily lip sync and not really specific scenes. More so just a point in time

Length: 2:04 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yes, as an animatic (I don’t think my description did it much justice since it really is mostly lip sync, but there’s very vivid images of it in my mind)

Song: Meet Me in the Woods

Character(s)/Game Focus: Lea/Axel

Description: An animation depicting Lea/Axel’s life starting with him and Isa finding Subject X (the “journey to the unknown”). “The darkness getting ahold of them” is referring becoming Ansem’s apprentices and their eventual initiation into the Organization because of it. The music between verses is the early days of them in the Organization then shifts to Roxas’ early days there. “How long baby have I been away” is post-Castle Oblivion. The first chorus is the Sea Salt Trio kinda becoming a trio. “Yeah the truth is stranger than my own worst dreams” is him learning about Xion being a replica. Then right after is everything falling apart for the trio. The second chorus going into the wind down is Axel/Lea’s redemption and KH3 stuff (keyblade war too before it starts to slow down). Then at the end when it really slows down is the Sea Salt Trio’s reunion.

Length: 4:23 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: I want to say yes but chances are no, this one doesn’t even have a script but I might give it one for sticking around so long

Song: Unravel

Character(s)/Game Focus: Heart Hotel/Sortas (Sora, Ven, Roxas, Xion, Vanitas)

Description: First section is UX Ven. Post first drop to "that is where I'll live on" is Xion (just her story in Days). The section ends with her dying then switches to Roxas after her death for the 'angry part' (fighting Riku) then when the music chills out a bit he returns to Sora. Then when its the instrumental of the chorus we start Vanitas' section/BBS Ventus' section. The "breakable, unbreakable" back and forth is basically their talk before their big fight in Ven's heart, which starts at the "I won't let you contaminate me!" (from Ven) but the scene cuts before they start to fight. The next part is Sora in DDD. The part where they're repeating "Don't forget me" is when Riku is in Sora's heart talking to each Sorta (and Vanitas is there too I guess). Order is the same as in the game with Vani in there somewhere (unless Xion isn't last, she needs to be the last one). The part where they repeat the first line is the scene in KH3 where its 'revealed' Sora has other hearts withing him.

Length: 5:21 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Same as the previous, I love it but I’ve built it up so much in my head I don’t think I could do it justice, I'll make it a script eventually

Song: Don’t Make Me

Character(s)/Game Focus: Lauriam

Description: This one is definitely outdated. Like it pre-dates the update where Lauriam actually finds out that the NULs know his sister is dead (the script obviously has been updated since then but I think the fact that it is that old still kinda shows). But yeah Don’t Make Me is basically Lauriam slowly becoming more suspicious of everyone and really really hoping none of them had anything to do with his sister’s disappearance. Because if they were he might just end up being a villain in their story. Again really old, so my interpretation of events were kinda off since I hadn’t seen all the cutscenes a bajillion times, but I think it’d make a fun AU.

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 3:10 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: I don’t think so, the time for it has come and passed… like almost 3 years ago now

Song: Help Me

Character(s)/Game Focus: Subject X (Skuld)

Description: Subject X is in her cell and is contacted by the ghosts of the Radiant Garden scientists’ previous victims.

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 1:20 (0:00-1:20)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No, I decided to scrap this one a while ago

Song: Cold Feet

Character(s)/Game Focus: Mostly KH 3 and 4 (whenever it comes out)

Description: Patience is the game for this one. The idea is incomplete until Riku finds Sora but here’s my thoughts so far. Before the first chorus it’s a bunch of events from Sora’s story leading up to Riku’s sacrifice. The sacrifice is then the chorus (“cold, cold feet”, is Riku stepping forward etc etc). The drop is Sora reviving everyone and resetting the timeline and stuff and the rest of KH3 if there’s enough room. The “wherever you are I wish you well” to “they’re not ringing for me” is Riku being angsty about Sora’s disappearance, looking for him and stuff. The “couldn’t do a thing to make you stay” to “one hell of a story” is Kairi being angsty about it. The pre-chorus is the stuff with the Fairy Godmother and the Final World in MelMem and there’s the cut off. The rest I just gotta wait for I guess lol

Length: Full Song?? (Depends on KH4)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Unlikely but I’ll probably script it out to soothe my mind

Song: Stuff is Way

Character(s)/Game Focus: Vanitas

Description: Basically the animation meme, just Vanitas lip syncing for most of it. The second voice is Xehanort. The images behind would just be various flashes of his life.

Length: 1:36 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: As much as I want to, probably not

Song: The Other Side of Paradise

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ventus

Description: Basically just the scene where Ven walks in on Lauriam attacking Brain and decides it’s a good time to confess to murder. The first two lines are just Ven lip syncing. Then Lauriam attacks for the next line two lines. Darkness leaves Ventus on “caught up in a grip when we where us”. “Fingers in a fist like you might run” is Lauriam tightening his fist around his Keyblade. And the last three lines are a shot of Darkness, and shot of the NULs, and then a shot of the two standing across from each other.

I could’ve sworn I had this scripted out somewhere but I searched all my google accounts and nothing… must’ve been on paper.

Length: 1:01 (3:39-4:40)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Maybe, this one is very vivid in my mind, but its been around for years, and I still haven't touched it so...

Song: I can Go the Distance

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ventus

Description: Purely headcanon based on how I feel Ven’s character might go in the future. Basically about Ven (Post-KH3) going out and trying to find out more about his past. Find the friends from his dream. One of the ones he mentioned he had while while within Sora (“these people I didn’t recognize and weird animal creatures” which I assume are the NULs and Chirithies/Spirits). Mostly just him singing to himself around the Land of Departure (then other worlds he’s exploring during the second half of the song). Herc’s mom and dad are Aqua and Terra.

Length: 3:03 (Full Scene)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Depends on how whether or not Ven actually goes looking

Song: I’m not Fine

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ventus

Description: Just UX Ven vibes really, I try not to think too much about it since I’ll never be able to go forward with it.

Length: 3:29 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No, the artist prefers you don’t animate their songs without permission

Song: And the Day Goes On

Character(s)/Game Focus: Xion

Description: The song is kinda goofy and nonsensical but I think it actually really works with Xion's story. The first verse is her normal, missions and some identity issues thrown in for fun. The second is her going to Castle Oblivion. The first chorus is the trio at the clocktower. The third verse is the stuff with Naminé, DiZ, and Riku. The second chorus is her going back and fighting Roxas. The post chorus is her dying and returning to Sora. And the rest of the song is post KH3, just hanging out with her pals (and Isa lol).

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 2:12 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Mayhaps, this one is one of my favourite non-UX ideas

Song: Graveyard

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ventus

Description: Basically Ven's journey through BBS. This one would have the lyrics on screen. The chorus would be the pretty much the same every time. The majority of the chorus would be a looping run animation. The "they say" and "to the graveyard" parts being the variables. For the former the character to the side of the text 'speaking' changes each time and the later the location Ven ends up is different each time. Everything post "it's funny how the warning signs can feel like they're butterflies" is BBS' final battle.

Length: 3:13 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No, I don't think so

Song: Don’t do Sadness/Blue Wind

Character(s)/Game Focus: Lauriam and Strelitzia

Description: Lauriam after realizing Strelitzia is dead and singing down the streets about how he doesn’t have time to be sad, he has to be strong and stuff. Strelitzia’s ghost follows him trying to help him feel his emotions. Then at the end he cries and Strelitzia disappears.

Length: 1:12 (3:53-5:05)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yes, as an animatic, I actually tried to start it a few years ago (here) but if it do finish it I’ll remake it

Song: Revolution

Character(s)/Game Focus: Marluxia

Description: Marluxia in Castle Oblivion having some flashbacks because of Sora and Naminé and stuff.

Script Link

Length: 0:22 (1:21-1:43)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Probably not, its just old and I don't really feel like it anymore

Song: Empty Crown

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ava

Description: Ava during the Keyblade War right as Kingdom Hearts is summoned.

Script Link

Length: 0:26 (3:08-3:34)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: It’s done actually, here

Song: The Valley

Character(s)/Game Focus: Franchise Wide

Description: This one covers so much in a kinda disjointed way, if it described it here it’d be like twice the length of the others. I’d recommend just reading the script.

Script Link

Length: 2:57 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: It’s up on YouTube as an open MAP (here)

Song: Crazy

Character(s)/Game Focus: Luxu/Xigbar

Description: The first verse is mostly just shots of Luxu on the hill reminiscing about what MoM told him before sending him off, then the chorus is him still on the hill singing to No Name. The second verse and chorus is the scene where Ava confronts him. The “my hero’s had the heart to lose the lives I wanna live” to “ever since I was little x2 it looked like fun” is the Forteller’s in Keyblade War and flashbacks to Luxu felling left out and stuff. The “and it’s no coincidence I’ve come” is a transition to Xigbar. The rest of the song is the scene where Xigbar summons back the Foretellers.

Length: 2:59 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Probably not

Song Video: The Rain

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ephemer

Description: So this one has been tweaked a bit. Before UX ended I was pretty positive Ephemer was gonna die, so it was originally centred around that. Now though its Ephemer in the Lifeboat, floating in the water, alone, questioning what he did wrong, why none of his friends are there. Which I think works better, honestly.

Length: 0:36 (Full Video)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Maybe, I like this one a lot and it’s quite simple but I think it may get beaten out by newer projects

Song: Youth

Character(s)/Game Focus: The NULs (Ephemer, Skuld, Brain, Ven, Lauriam)

Description: I think this song fits so well with KHUX, I like lost my mind when I made the connection. Like that whole first verse? So on the nose it hurts. The first verse, pre-chorus and chorus would focus specifically on UX, with the first verse being Ava talking about/to Ephemer, then it following Ephemer through the events of Union X. The next verse is Subject X (Skuld) having vague memories of UX. Then next the pre-chorus and chorus follows Ven through BBS. The following pre-chorus and chorus are Marluxia. And the last “pre-chorus” is Brain in Scala (I originally thought he was the founder so my original idea kinda holds up).

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 3:54 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Despite how well it works, probably not, just doesn’t ensnare me like other ideas (I say after writing a whole paragraph about it)

Song: There Right There (Gay or European)

Character(s)/Game Focus: The LowerClassmen (Eraqus, Vor, Bragi, Hermod, Urd, Xehanort)

Description: 🎶Gay or an off worlder🎶

The LowerClassmen at various points in time arguing about whether Xehanort is an off worlder or gay because as soon as he showed up Vor gaydar went off. Bragi uses advanced tactics to try and get Xehanort to admit it. And when Xehanort denies it Eraqus comes in. Also the part where Urd says “Metro, hetero, jerk” I like to imagine she’s gesturing aggressively towards Bragi, who is just staring at her confused like “I’m not even straight??” (Urd has no gaydar, fight me lol).

The script is just which character is saying what

Script Link

Length: 3:28 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Probably, I try to resist but this idea will win out eventually, I can feel it

UX Finale Era Ideas

You’d think there’d be more since this was one of the peaks of my hyperfixation but I actually was just writing and drawing a bunch during this time, not listening to a lot of music lol (also Neo came out and stole my attention until Christmas because I watched Tennelle and Whitney play it as they were streaming it)

I also got really stuck on making the scripts look a certain way during this time and that led to a lot of them being incomplete

Song: Blackout

Character(s)/Game Focus: UX Endgame

Description: Literally the UX Endgame, starting with Darkness knocking Ven out.

Script Link

Length: 2:11 (1:30-3:41)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Depends on how many animations I make of the same events lol

Song: Choice

Character(s)/Game Focus: UX

Description: This one, like Stuff is Way is an animation meme, semi inspired by the one Blackie Sootfur made. "Love" is Lauriam and Strelitzia since that's what their stories revolve around (different types mind you). "Brain" is, uh, well, Brain, for obvious reasons. "Heart" is Ephemer and Skuld since it was the open space and they're also besties. And "control" is Ventus since he's lowkey possessed. The rest of the meme outside of the loop is centered around Ven's whole "oops murder" plot and his and the other's reactions too it.

Script Link

Length: 0:40 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Working on it right now actually

Song: Soldier

Character(s)/Game Focus: UX Endgame

Description: Starts with Luxu and MoM talking, then some glitches on the "Ooh"s , the rest is Chi trio during the finale

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 2:07 (1:38-3:45)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Maybe, a lot of my ideas have very similar scenes though, so it depends on how often I animate the same events lol

Song: Warriors

Character(s)/Game Focus: The Foretellers

Description: Kinda headcannon-y at the start, which is the MoM and the Foreteller's + Luxu when they were younger. Then on the first "Here we are, don't turn away now" it turns to them while leading their Unions and stuff leading up to the war. Then there's some Keyblade War stuff in the drop.

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 2:17 (0:00-2:17)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No, I try my best to stay away from headcannon-y stuff since I already have so many canon animation ideas I need to choose between

Song: My Way (Minor Cover)

Character(s)/Game Focus: Luxu/Bragi/Braig/Xigbar

Description: This used to be very different but got a new coat of paint and breath of life once DR came out. But yeah, kinda just Luxu living his lives.

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 4:37 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Either this one or one you see later (Dust Bowl Dance), I would like to do one but not both since they cover primarily the same events

Song: Mama Said

Character(s)/Game Focus: Brain

Description: Brain reflecting on his UX days after arriving in Scala, looking at Ephemer's statue, then lying to Sigurd lol

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 0:29 (1:54-2:23)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Its short, its sad-ish. Giving it a solid maybe

Song: Guillotine

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ephemer and Skuld

Description: Skuld has a nightmare and Ephemer comforts her and then does a dance to try and make her feel better

Length: 1:08 (0:00-1:08)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Maybe, I started it then got possessed by the next one and lost interest, but now that I’m looking back at it I’m definitely tempted to try again (just as an animatic tho)

Song: Safe and Sound

Character(s)/Game Focus: Chi Trio (Ephemer, Skuld, and Player)

Description: Basically just the Chi Trio's part of the UX finale again. Geez, guess that scene really got to me or something.

Script Link

Length: 1:36 (0:14-1:50)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yep, this one’s finished, but YouTube took the original version down so here’s the original version and here’s the YouTube version (I tried my best to find a cover that lined up properly but the original syncs up best)

Song: Oh Ana

Character(s)/Game Focus: Back Cover and UX

Description: The first section is MoM, the second is the Foretellers (telling the events of Backcover from Ava's perspective), the third is the NULs (telling the events post-glitches in UX).

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 1:14 (0:28-1:42)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: If I can sort out the MoM part I'd like to

Song: Bugbear

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ventus

Description: Just UX Ven vibes again, him feeling like an imposter and stuff (because he is)

Length: 2:54 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No, not enough clear images and scenes in my mind

Post-ML Announcement Ideas

Less Brain centric than you’d think but I’m making this a separate section because of the way they’re scripted and the ideas behind them. I got much more lax about how the scripts look and started think more about Ephemer and Brain’s futures.

So basically a lot of “I miss my friends” kind of angst

It’s also after I started reading Dandelion Seeds so there’s definitely inspiration from that in here too

Song: Hey There Delilah

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ephemer

Description: Ephemer after using the Lifeboat writing letters for the other Union Leaders. Each "different section of the song"hey ther Delilah" is a different letter (and point in time). The first and second ones are to Skuld. The third one I haven't decided yet. The forth is to Brain (I don't ship them, I just headcannon its a running joke between the two of them and Skuld that Eph and Brain are secretly madly in love. Skuld started it, Ephemer went with it, Brain is amused annoyed by it lol). Then "A thousand miles seems pretty far" to "and you're to blame" is just general, to everyone, just like a montage I guess, with some memories behind him. Then the last letter is to Brain when.

Length: 3:57 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No, I don’t think so, the idea isn’t fleshed out enough visually, but it breaks my heart to say that

Song: King and Lionheart

Character(s)/Game Focus: The NULs

Description: This one is very inspired by Dandelion Seeds, I wrote it after getting caught up to the update it was at at the time (just know that in the script every time I'm like "NULs helping the Dandelions" or "NULs having fun" there's a scene from Dandelion Seeds playing in my head there lol).

It starts off with Ava, but then pretty much follows all the events of UX.

Script Link

Length: 3:06 (0:00-3:06)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Very likely, I love this one so much. But I know for a fact that I'm gonna get stuck on making Maleficent look right in my style (which is gonna be the biggest game of trial and error ever)

Song: Uncomfortably Numb

Character(s)/Game Focus: Brain, Ava (and Luxu for like 2 seconds)

Description: A split screen animation telling both Brain and Ava's (the masculine and feminine voices respectively) stories (its only split screen during the parts they're both singing though). During the chorus where the singers are going back and forth so are the characters through space and time (not actually but you know lol). Brain's sections would take place during Missing Link, whereas Ava's are during Backcover/Chi. Ava's section alone is the scene where she confronts Luxu on the hill.

Length: 4:11 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: I don’t think so, because a) it all depends on how Missing Link goes and b) it isn’t super set in my head yet (like I might just change the all Brain stuff to Luxu)

Song: Faded

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ephemer

Description: Ansty animatic of Ephemer looking for his friends in the wreckage of his home with all sorts of water symbolism.

Length: 3:33 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No, not enough actual images in my head just a vibe for a concept (kinda like Hey There Delilah I guess)

Song: Masterpiece Theatre III

Character(s)/Game Focus: The NULs and Luxu

Description: Start of the song to a bit after the second "I'll wreck this if I have to" is UX Ven focused. Mostly angsty stuff about him being possessed. "You get separated" to "you were a friend of mine" is Ephemer during the finale. You know the drill. Player gets 'possessed' and killed, oof. Alternitively if we get a bit headcannon-y it can be after UX and him rebuilding Scala, the "You were a friend of mine" referring to a possessed Brain. All the "'cause they don't know you like I do"s are Brain in Scala. Super angry rock part is Subject X/Skuld being upset about the scientists and being unable to return to the world she sees so vaguely in her memories. Then it slows down and turns to Marluxia until the last "getting better in the worst way". After which it switches to Luxu.

Length: 6:41 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: HAHAHAH NO. Way too long and not vivid enough for some characters. I’m sorry lol

Song: We are Stars

Character(s)/Game Focus: Sora and Riku

Description: Very stylized PMV. With black and white silhouettes and funky transitions. Not very specific scene-wise but references DDD the most. I don’t know how to explain it without just saying the script so, like, check out the script if your interest is piqued lol

Script Link

Length: 0:10 (0:21-0:31)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yeah, I was thinking about making it in PowerPoint

Song: Ocean Eyes

Character(s)/Game Focus: Stelitzia

Description: Basically Strelitzia’s little intro thing she has. She sees Player get ditched by Ephemer, low key stalks Player, gets told she’s a Union Leader, needs to know whether Player is a Dandelion if a war is coming, gets murdered. All to some chill music.

Script Link

Length: 1:06 (0:00-0:42 and 2:42-3:16)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Kinda working on it now? Have a few frames done but no storyboard yet

Song: Eyes Blue X Heather

Character(s)/Game Focus: Ephemer and Brain

Description: First chorus is an older Ephemer remembering his friends and being upset that he just can't seem to remember their eye colours. Then it switches to UX Ephemer and continues to focus on him until "you played", where it switches to both him and Brain (the scene where Brain gives him the book and his keyblade). "Jack and Rose" it switches to split screen of them both at the computers at their respective versions of Daybreak Town. "But you sunk only you froze", Brain's side of the screen consumes Ephemer's as Luxu approaches him. "'Cause you gave her your sweater", Brin spins around and tries to summon his keyblade but can't. Black screen. Then the rest of the verses are Ephemer in the wreckage of his home and the last chorus is Brain arriving in Scala.

Length: 0:54 (0:00-0:54)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Ughhhhh, so tempted, but I don't think so, but I want to

Song: Lauren’s Interlude

Character(s)/Game Focus: Brain and Ava

Description: Ava writes Brain a letter telling him that she has decided to fight in the Keyblade War.

Script Link

Length: 1:13 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yep this one is made and up on my YouTube channel (here)

Song: Change your Mind (but a cover)

Character(s)/Game Focus: Isa, Xion

Description: Post-KH3 Isa singing this to Xion telling her that its okay if she doesn't want to forgive him and that he's willing to reconcile for his past actions, but if at any point she wants to actually get to know him, Isa not Saïx, she can.

Length: 0:55 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yeah, eventually

Song: Homeward Bound/Home

Character(s)/Game Focus: The NULs

Description: Similar to King and Lionheart just even more from the NULs perspective (and giving more focus to each NUL individually... except Brain... RIP lol)

Script Link

Length: 4:17 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yep, this one I’m working on making an animatic of right now

Post-DR Update Ideas

Biggest difference here is that now Baldr is here and Bragi exists so we have them now lol

Song: Dust Bowl Dance

Character(s)/Game Focus: Luxu/Bragi/Braig/Xigbar

Description: Starts with Xigbar reminiscing a little in the Keyblade Graveyard post-KH3 ("the young man sits on the edge of his porch" to "given all it could yield"). Then does a full on flashback to UX, starting with MoM sending him off and ending with his confrontation with Ava, for "I've been kicked off my land" to "this same kind of remorse". The first chrous is him during the UX finale and possessing Brain. "Well you are my accuser" to the first "I am the only son" is Bragi getting threatened by Baldr then uno reversing him. The next two choruses are Braig and Xigbar stuff, all the way up until the end of KH3. Then the goes out of the flashbacks to where we left off in the first scene. He finds No Name summons and back the Foretellers.

Length: 4:44 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Like I said earlier either this one or My Way, but not both, they're too similar (but if I’m honest I lean towards this one)

Song: I AM NOT INSANE

Character(s)/Game Focus: Baldr

Description: Alright, first things first, this is another animation meme, please watch it first to properly understand my passion and description.

K. You back? I watched this meme once and had a vision.

The falling parts show Baldr’s victims at the point in time the animation is showing. The fact that that gives me a chance to do the sickest transition ever with Baldr summoning his keyblade and slashing his victims, turning them into the blood on his face. Ahhhhhh! The way I can end it with Baldr begging for his life and Xehanort being the one to say the last “I don’t really care now” thereby paralleling them and foreshadowing Xehanort’s future crimes. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I wanna ramble more but I don’t have any more words in me, just screaming.

If you only read one script please let it be this one I’m so happy with/proud of this idea (in case you couldn’t tell lol)

Script Link

Length: 0:54 (1:14-2:08)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yes. Yes. 100 times, yes. I love this idea. I love they way it looks in my head. I just need to get a bit better at humans, and angles, and editing first

Song: Fine, Great

Character(s)/Game Focus: Brain

Description: Brain is having a TIME in Scala. Starts off with a bit of PTSD. Then some sitting at a board meeting where some people are complaining about the government (they want him to take over). Then Player shows up. Then I need to wait for ML to come out and fill in some blanks for me. Then it ends with Brain and Player being friends and having a conversation.

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 2:32 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Depends on how Missing Link goes (need it to fill some of my ideas out more)

Song: Hell of a Ride

Character(s)/Game Focus: MoM

Description: Literally just Brain watching MoM (on his computer) singing about the NULs with little pictures of events behind him then it glitches at the end. Mostly a joke but it lives within me rent free.

Length: 0:15 (1:34-1:49)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Probably, it’s short enough

Song: When the Lights Go Out

Character(s)/Game Focus: UX Endgame

Description: Very slow dramatic retelling of the UX finale, starting with the big glitches in the sky right before Wreck it Ralph that turns to a very quick, still dramatic, retelling of each of the NULs lives afterwards that I need to edit in the script (the way its written there no longer lines up with the way it looks in my head) at the big final bit.

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 2:46 (1:47-4:33)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yes, I made it simple enough up until the end that I should be able to actually finish it despite the length… but I might make it into a MAP instead if I can get enough attention from other artists for my sanity’s sake

Song: Love Don’t Go

Character(s)/Game Focus: DR

Description: Speaking of dramatic retellings. Lets change it up a little and do Dark Road this time. This ones a bit Baldr centric but it does have a decent amount of focus on what the other two active parties are doing as well.

Also in the script I say "V Gang" that's what I call Vidar, Vala, and Vali (and usually Vor but not in this case) as a group. Since, like... all their names start with V... and they work together... I dunno man lol

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 2:32 (0:00-2:32)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Not alone, way too animated in my brain to actually reasonably expect to finish it all by myself, even as an animatic. But I do also love it dearly

Song: Are You Satisfied

Character(s)/Game Focus: Intended NULs (Everyone minus Ven but including Strelitzia)

Description: First half of the song is Strelitzia being told she's meant to be a Union Leader, Ephemer living his life, and Brain having to deal with actually being a Union Leader + the end of UX. The second half is Skuld as Subject X, Marluxia, wrapping up with Strelitzia again, now finding Sora in Quadratum.

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 3:19 (Full Song)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Maybe, but if I do I'll probably shorten it to just Ephemer and Brain's sections

Song: Goodbye to a World

Character(s)/Game Focus: Player and Ephemer

Description: Here I go again with the scene where Ephemer kills Player. There's a little more to it this time though, I swear. This one has a little bit more of "Ephemer built a future for his friend" flare!

Script Link

Length: 0:30 (1:44-2:14)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yep, this one’s a WIP, I’m super close to finishing it (the YouTube WIP is old) but the Scala Fountain is making me procrastinate lol

Song: Skyfall

Character(s)/Game Focus: Chi Trio

Description: A really dramatic and slow animation depicting Player's sacrifice and the events before it

Length: 2:00 (0:00-2:00)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Probably not, I already have so many animations I want to do more with that one scene, and this one is looong

Song: Don’t Tell Your WIFE About This Game!

Character(s)/Game Focus: Brain

Description: Nope, this isn’t a joke, hear me out. The… drop?? meltdown?? of this song just really gives me Brain vibes, and a very specific image in my mind. I mean “you refuse to look at the guide ‘cause you think you’re way too smart”, this kid literally had the Book of Prophecies this whole time, and I mean sure, it was probably a trap but he didn’t exactly know that. And the whole video game motif fitting right in with data world stuff? Eating it up. Giving Brain a non-cannon breakdown moment? Necessary for that emotional high note (but also Brain should get to have a canon one *preemptively does vaguely threatening gestures towards ML*).

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 0:40 (2:21-3:01)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Yes, I was thinking this could be my project once we get a proper release date for ML (so I could release it the day it comes out)

Song: It’s about Time

Character(s)/Game Focus: Skuld

Description: This one covers all of Skuld’s story we know so far, minus the Subject X stuff (yes my money is still on her, thanks), with a twist. The song talks about being on a tightrope so why not put her on one. Like, she’s been through some pretty precarious situations. It’s symbolic. Also the I’d cut the song right through the middle. RIP first chorus and second verse, you didn’t fit in my vision.

Oh also this one has concept art

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 2:44 (0:00-1:07 and 2:09-3:46)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: No clue, the concept art might’ve scratched my itch, but I also think it’s a fun idea, but I think all of these are fun so…

Song: Moonsickness

Character(s)/Game Focus: Brain

Description: Brain is upset with the way history is so muddled in Scala, has a flashback, then yells at the government

Script Link (Incomplete)

Length: 1:38 (3:52-5:14)

Do I plan on actually making it some day?: Depends on how much Missing Link fits into my current headcannons

Whoo! That’s all of them

Or, well… most of them… the ones I felt were worth mentioning.

Is this a cry for help? Definitely. Maybe.

Seriously though, thank you for getting this far into the post. Even if you didn’t read and/or listen to everything (I get it, it really is a lot). This took forever and I hope you found some enjoyment from it.

And hey, if any of these sparked your interest let me know. DM me, tell me in tags, what have you. I’d love to hear feedback

Especially if you were inspired enough to want to do a collab or have ideas for blank spots in scripts (I’ll love you forever if you want to help me /p /hj) .

#I have a very active mind #and it uses all of its energy listening to music torturing me with animations #If by any chance a miracle happens and any of these catch your eye (like you wanna collab with me) let me know #I’m always down getting any of these ideas out of my head will bring me such joy #Hey its the me that's actually finished this now #this took like two weeks on and off lol #I'm so glad its done #such a satisfying experience to finally get some of these out there and out of my head #kh animation ideas #khux #(only tagging this KHUX ‘cause that’s pretty much all it is lol)#sometimes i think about khux

favorite kingdom hearts characters. for science

WELL, gently taps the current pinned post of this blog, that one's a freebie ^__^

Anyway. BOY ranking them all is really hard bc so many characters in the series have permanently set up camp in my head by now and arent particularly inclined to leave any time soon, but if I had to list off just a couple examples that have caused me the most brain damage so far, itd be:

- Terra, hands down my number 1 most specialest guy in the whole world. Instantly became enamored with him from the moment I first set eyes on him and then proceeded to have all of my ribs carefully and meticulously pulled out of my chest one by one throughout the entirety of bbs and the entire rest of the series after that. Its so dire man I literally cannot look at any images of him now without physically having to hold myself back from making a long strangled whine Out Loud With My Mouth every time

- the entire Wayfinder Trio as a collective unit + Vanitas also tbh. Terra's obviously my Primary Favorite but the wayfinders as a whole also make my heart hurt so fucking bad man. My partner and I choose to interpret them all as siblings bc it leads to some exceptionally delicious and painful rs dynamics to explore imo and something abt it just makes The Miseries hit that much harder in ways that have literally had me writhing on the couch with a thousand yard stare rapidly cycling through the five stages of grief on loop. I'm also counting Vanitas as part of the unit bc he's just so closely tied to Ven in my brain that separating them (lol.) feels Wrong (lmao.), and. God. Vanitas might just be one of THE most tragic characters in literally any media I've experienced and I say this without a single hint of irony. The current total wordcount of the rps that I've written abt the wayfinders with my partner so far has probably shot past 50k by now. Why am I hurds

- Kairi. I was originally mostly ambivalent/neutrally intrigued abt her but kept getting increasingly more pissed abt her treatment and constant sidelining by the writing to the point where I got to kh3/mom and something in me snapped entirely, and from that moment onwards I decided to love her entirely out of spite. She instantly shot up to become one of my favorites after that and if I think abt her meta and story potential for longer than five minutes at a time I start frothing at the mouth

- Sora, naturally. I have so so so so many thoughts on this little darling boy that could easily double the wordcount of this ask just by themselves but the most important thing to mention here in lieu of that, for now, is that he's is the One (1) and ONLY child ive ever seen, whether real or fictional, that has made me experience emotions anywhere Close to resembling baby fever. I want to dribble him like a basketball but also gently pinch his cheek affectionately and also spoil him silly like a grandma seeing her beloved grandson again for the first time in months

- Xigbar. This fucko is the one I'm the most mad about ending up liking as much as I do, not because hes a bad character, absolutely far from it I fucking ADORE this terrible bodyhopping little cunt, but because it happened by complete accident after I realized he shares a lot of (surface) similarities with my favorite blorbo from another entirely unrelated franchise and I then got mad about realizing I have a very easily clockable Type (which I've affectionately dubbed the Guys That Suck category. I have more too obv but its the funniest one I have). He's also infuriatingly fun to write. Get me OUT of here

- Xemnas, Terranort and Ansem SoD. Everyone in the Nort Collective counts tbh but those three are the ones I lose sleep over the most, particularly the first two; Xemnas bc he makes me feel an unfathomably deep and haunting sense of grief (brought on by me finishing bbs and then realizing days later the exact way his creation connects to Terra's story and hearing the sound of fucking glass shattering at the back of my head instantly), and Terranort bc I'm fucking terrified of him and he also makes me want to eat gravel whenever I think abt him in context with him interacting with the rest of the wayfinders. He's also really fun to write and this fact Upsets Me. Ansem's listed bc you can never go wrong with the ol reliable mad scientist. The rest of the norts I would probably also be a lot more insane over once I actually get off my damn ass and start picking through the mobile games but that's an endeavor for Future Salty (i am very excited and terrified)

- the Lingering Will. I'm counting it as a separate entity from Terra and the rest of the Terra Collective on a technicality bc (LOUD TELEVISION STATIC AS I GESTURE FRANTICALLY AND FURIOUSLY @ THE JUMBLED BALL OF YARN LABELED "my thoughts on the physical and psychological effects of being a guy who got his soul and entire being shattered into like five million distinct pieces for over 10 Whole Entire Years" THAT I HAVE NOT EXPLAINED THE ENTIRETY OF TO A SINGLE OTHER SOUL ON EARTH) but. Eah. This fucking haunted hunk of metal has been eating holes through my brain tissue ever since I first saw the kh2 secret superboss and I'm distraught over it every single day of my life. This thing is like a weird bug to me. Do you understand. (tearign up) Do you get me. Do I have to pull out the Lingering Will/The Hollow Knight venn diagram

And as for the other fuckos haunting my cranium on the daily I can only mention a couple other honorary picks that honestly could also very well have made it to the main list if not for the fact that this post is already long enough as it is, and these following characters are therefore mostly delegated to Sleeper Agent Blorbos who I don't think about QUITE as often as the ones listed above but whenever I Do I get just as distraught and ailed over them. Anyway, shoutout to the entire Seasalt Trio, Demyx, Riku, Repliku, Naminé and Saïx and probably many others I'm forgetting rn bc it is currently 2 am and I'm running on approximately 5-6 hours of sleep and a prayer 👍 god bless and amen

#saltfish replies #empyreasheart #blinks blearily. good god this got Long i am SO fucking sorry i wrote all of this in a single mad haze #HA! YOU ACTIVATED MY AUTISM TRAP CARD #anyway. thank you so fucking much for the ask this was really fun to answer and i feel liek im about 2 seconds from passing out on the spot #kh

I havent watched motor city BUT im loving this au pls tell us more about what everyone is doing im begging hfdhg

hKFGS ok o7 i dont have v much though i havent thought about it that hard

so for starters motorcity is a cartoon about the rule of cool, car gangs, and oppression from a guy who built a perfect efficient city Over the normal city of detroit on a big dome. everyone above kinda lives in a rigid perfection-oriented apple product smooth city, everyone below is Alive and also Chaotic. there are also killer robots. moving on.

my ideas start and end with the mobile games (i am SO SORRY sora you know i love you. you and roxas and xion and others are probably doing cool fun stuff too)

Ephy's gang (the dandelions) cornered one of the lakes still in motorcity and monopolized it to use as their base, they run a beachy resort called Daybreak Town that provides luxury services for cheap prices to normal citizens. People love it because it's like, a resort and a vacation spot where there aren't any more, and also they can relax and not worry abt being shot at by robots because the gang is good at what they do. obviously other gang members run a higher price than normal citizens because of the increased attack risk, and if they act up inside the resort Lauriam will not hesitate to kick everyone out. the rule is Don't Ruin It. the Dandelions trade in and out a lot of money from/to their resort business, so they're good to trade with, and also have a slight reputation as being intense when it comes to trade deals and parts salvaging. you know how competitive khux got.

Ephemer and Skuld (the bear and snake, respectively) run the front desk and manage every trade deal. They're the face members, they deal with PR, management, etc. They're very nice, customer service and all that, and also very scary because they're the most powerful people on the east side and are smiling at you. Brain (the fox) runs all the computer and tech stuff, all the scheduling and activity decisions, and he's the treasurer. Behind the scenes sort of guy, absolutely the one they send in if a trade deal is going poorly and they want to outfox (hahaaa) someone else. He also makes schematics for new weapons. Lauriam (the unicorn) is groundskeeper and security -- caring for the plants (they have water, and thus they have plants, and thus their trade extends to some edible goods as well) relaxes him, which he kind of needs, because he has to be intimidating if someone rowdy is gonna listen to him. He's a twig boy still... dont worry lauri youll fill out soon. Ven and Vani (two leopards, snow and melanistic) are part time maintenance/customer service part time external security, because they like having tasks to do and also like (and are very good at) fight attack kill. Vanitas really likes fixing/making stuff, funny enough, and Ven likes to help people; and Vanitas likes ...dealing with annoying customers. I like 2 think Kane was experimenting with cadets + cyborg stuff and they ended up down in motorcity discarded and glitched out at two separate times, and now they work together. Elrena (no animal) does a lot of mechanic work because she hung around for so long and bothered Lauriam so much that they became friends, so she's ours now. Player (no animal) is head of kitchen crew because that's me and I like cooking and we were missing an important role in the hotel! So!

Ephemer has a car that looks ancient but has a whole harpoon on it, called Polaris. It's kinda star themed, kinda bear themed, kinda icy. Skuld has a whole fire snake thing going on, her car is also starry, blue fire version. It's called Ophiuchus, and it doesn't look quite as old, but it's long, and has a whip/morning star/metal junk projectiles thing. Brain's car isn't used that often, but he has a dog/wild dog theme, and it's called Vulpecula. It has a chain/traps/buffs/debuffs thing. Lauriam obviously has a gardeny mythical car, Cygnus, it is very new and shiny. it has. a lot of weapons also DUH he uses a scythe in hand to hand. Strelitzia isn't old enough to drive yet, but she's learning, and they're gonna build her a car of her own. Her animal will be the heron, and she'll help with groundskeeping until she specializes. Ven and Vani share a car, Gemini Lux, because Vani can't drive and Ven can't aim very well. Ven can drive extremely well and Vani likes to shoot things (they were pilot and combat cadet experiments respectively). They have a tank of a musclecar with two cannons on the back, wing/claw motifs, and a b/w theme.

Ephy and Skuld started this effort, it was ephemer's idea to built a resort in Motorcity. After it really started working, though, they were both in. Brain popped in because a) he prefers not to fight so often and wanted somewhere quiet to work but b) he likes the message and is REALLY good at what he does. Which is important, since the next person they found was Ven, glitched out on the side of the lake and trying really hard not to hurt anyone even if his programming was yelling at him to attack. Brain fixed him up :] after which Lauriam joined, searching for his sister, who turned out to be doing a weird rogue thing with a broken H.O.U.N.D they have all kept and named Chirithy. She tried to attack Ven on sight but it's chill now. Vani joined the main group last by doing pretty much the same thing as ven, just a lot more violently (everyone needs to STOP ATTACKING VENTUS he is NOT made of STEEL. MOSTLY.). They're a legitimate company family at this point.

Daybreak Town as a resort is pretty beachside typical, very relaxed, everyone has soft hawaiian shirts and shorts. They managed to rig some cables and controllers up for a warmer temperature and soft wind from the lake, even if they can't have the sky. They also RIGOROUSLY clear out pollution so people can swim in it, they have constant beef with a certain deluxe garbage chute. It's also: pretty big!

listen to this song

I stick this in here and say hesitantly,,, no.,,,, because I want the khdr kids +aqua/terra to be in a samurai themed gang LMAO-- I think it would be cool if there was a bit of rivalry/comraderie between the Dandelions and these guys, or if the dandelions broke off from them and that's why all their cars have latin names, or something. Xehanort and Eraqus run their gang after usurping it from their previous leaders, who were extremely strict and had led their subordinates to infighting and sabotage. They vowed to do better, but running a business is hard, and they can't see themselves trending in a similar direction...

idk what their name would be. But they're very much samurai-jedi-apocalyptic car gang members, meticulously clean, down to murder. Good outfits. Cool base building design. I... also want to either keep Baldr as the final straw from their last leaders (he snapped and killed a lot of people allowing xeha and eraqus to take control) or keep him here as a berserker in a cool battering ram swords car. JFHKSD

that's it i think, its cool cars

#i kinda lied but i kinda didn't i just started typing a lot and because my brain works the way it does it got long #i don't say a ton of extra info i just like being wordy #ask #anon #blueskyheadleft010 #khux #khdr spoilers #ok i think i'll use khdr spoilers as a tag until the end of this week. is that cool?#dandelions have a day/night thing going on... you know #motorcity au

If Kingdom Hearts Characters had Digimon

((Image source))

((Hee ho doods, Prinnyfrost reporting for duty! You guys asked for it and I'm now here to deliver! Honestly, I thought I did this already and when I checked the archive I couldn't find one so fuck it. Here's Kingdom Hearts characters getting Digimon partners! As usual, whenever I cover Kingdom Hearts, I'll only look at characters originally introduced in the series, meaning no Disney/Final Fantasy/Marvel characters, though I might do a Final Fantasy 4/7 one later down the line. I already have something in mind for Sephiroth to go along with his Pichu. And as usual, duplicates will be kept to a minimum as much as possible.

Let's start off with the protagonist, Sora. Sora is actually one of those characters where pretty much any digimon would be fine for him given his talent for making friends with anyone he comes into contact with. Hell, considering the nature of Kingdom Hearts, you could give him and the rest of the cast more than one, but we're going to stick to just one to start off with. As much as I want to give Sora a Patamon for the Clavis Angemon digivolution line that I just recently found out after watching Karn EX's video on the same subject, who you should check out after reading this post, but I think Agumon would be a fine starter for Sora as it would complement his bravery (which would go well with unlocking different digivolutions like Agunimon), the fact that Tai's Agumon is also pretty good at making friends as shown when he's able to relax BlackWarGreymon when they first met despite being in its rookie stage, and of course to go with the partner that I'm giving Riku.

2. Which is of course going to be Gabumon. Come on, we both know Sora and Riku using DNA Digivolution to make Omnimon is too good to pass up. That being said, due to the events of Kingdom Hearts 1 and Chain of Memories, it will be a while before they reach that point. Due to Riku's time in the dark side, Gabumon's going to start down a dark digivolution route to Dobermon, Ceberurmon, and Plutomon. It won't be around Kingdom Hearts 2 where Gabumon will access its main digivolution route up to MetalGarurumon and with Riku's balance of light and dark, Gabumon will soon be able to tap into either Digivolution route depending on the situation needed.

3. Up next is Kairi, and yeah she's definitely getting a Gatomon with the Angewomon route. I honestly hate that I'm doing this because it's bad enough that her name is almost exactly the same as Kari's from the Digimon anime, but I can't think of any other Digimon that would suit her better, especially since she's a Princess of Light. And since I'm letting Sora and Riku have their Digimon access different Digivolutions, I think it's only fair I'd do the same for Kairi at least in terms of ultimate stages. MarineAngemon would be fitting to go along with Kairi's training under Aqua, Ophanimon would help in Kairi's role as a Princess of Light, Magnadramon would be great because fuck it, let's give her a dragon to ride on, but I think the most fitting of all given her personality and desire to actually get into some action would be LovelyAngewomon.

4. Now for those worried about Patamon with its ClavisAngemon digivoltion line not getting a partner, don't worry, because I will gladly give it to ya boi, Ventus. Not only is Ventus a completely pure hearted character after having his darkness literally ripped out of him, which is perfect for any angelic Digimon so Patamon getting Angemon and MagnaAngemon will still work here, but both Clavis Angemon and Ventus are wind users and Clavis Angemon's weapon "The Key" could be a reference to the "X-Blade" which was forged from the clash between him and Vanitas.

5. Speaking of Vanitas, you know what's the opposite of Patamon? Tsukaimon! How did Angemon die for the first time in the anime? He clashed with Devimon! Both Vanitas and Neo Devimon wear masks so that checks out too! And for the mega stage, we have DanDevimon as it is formed by assimilating mass amounts of negative data and unleashing it upon anyone that crosses it, which could potentially be a reference to how all the unversed actually spawn from Vanitas and his negative energy.

5. Up next is Aqua. At first I wanted to give Aqua a Lunamon since Lunamon is an easy choice for water specialists and that Lunamon's fear of lonliness could mesh well with Aqua's motherly nature, but I decided against it since I have someone else in mind who I think might be a better fit. Especially since it's doubtful that Master Eraquis would let Aqua have one after finding out it can use darkness in its later stages in its main line. Instead, I'm giving Aqua a Shakomon to start off with to compliment Aqua's craftiness. Its champion stage will be Ranamon as I think it would be fun to see try to act as mature and majestic as Aqua when it's in a good mood, but throws a fit when annoyed, forcing Aqua to try and calm it down. Finally, the ultimate and mega stages will be Mermaimon and AncientMermaimon to keep with the sexy water lady theme.

6. Now here comes Terra. As much as I want to keep the earth element theme with him, unfortunately, we all know he needs a Digimon with a dark digivolution route. I think Dorumon would be the best bet in this regard as its dark evolution route are the DexDourugamon stages which I can see as Terra thinking Dorumon getting stronger this way is a good thing but is failing to realize that the two of them are drifting further and further into the dark side due to Xehanort's manipulation. That and at least Dorumon is a metal user which one could argue is a part of the earth element, especially any Avatar fans reading this.

7. Now for my favorite character in the series, Axel (or Lea as he prefers to be called now). Considering his fire element and his relationship with Saix, I think it's only fitting to give him a Coronamon with its main digivolution route to Apollomon. I can see Coronamon trying his best to keep Axel upbeat and energized while on missions but will slowly try to convince him to turn against the organization after realizing that they're actually fighting with the bad guys. Telling him that he should stick with his friends and do what feels right, that sort of thing.

8. Meaning Saix/Isa gets Lunamon with its main digivolution line to Dianamon. I think Saix is actually more fitting with Lunamon than Aqua not only because of his dynamic with Axel, but also because he is at least somewhat associated with the moon given his berserker mode. Not only that, but Saix and Lunamon could probably relate to each other's envy over Axel and Coronamon hanging out with other people. Remember, Lunamon does not like being lonely and seeing Coronamon mingle with other people, thus spending less time with it, could spark some negative emotions. And for those thinking that Saix would abuse Lunamon, the Kingdom Hearts manga has pointed out that he had a pet before so I kinda doubt that.

9. My first thought was to give Roxas a Clear Agumon to symbolize the fact that he's Sora's nobody, and give him the GeoGreymon line, but I found out that surprisingly, Clear Agumon doesn't evolve into GeoGreymon. So...Toy Agumon? Nah. While Roxas is curious, he's not exactly the most playful person in the series outside of his time with Hayner, Pence, and Olette and that was during a simulation. And since I gave Tsukaimon to compliment Ventus's Palmon...how about a BlackAgumon with a BlackWarGreymon route? After all, BlackWarGreymon isn't really evil. In a way, it's personality is similar to the anime version of Mewtwo's. It's a bit philosophical about the meaning of its life being a clone, though can get aggressive, especially when someone tries to force them on a set path. Actually, that perfectly fits Roxas now that I think about it while typing this up.

10. On the other hand, Xion would be a pretty decent fit for Toy Agumon. After all, Xion herself is created using Sora's memories (though mainly the ones he has with Kairi) and Xion is sweet and a bit playful once you befriend her, which fits well with how Toy Agumon are usually shy, yet enjoy playing with kids and will protect their companions. As for the digivolution route, considering her final boss battle at the end of 358/2 Days, I think it would be fitting to give her the GeoGreymon line, which will help reference her and Roxas's connection with Sora.

11. Normally I go with 10 characters at a time when it comes to these topics, but I refuse to end things without bringing up Namine. Since I gave Roxas a BlackAgumon, it only makes sense to give Namine, who is KAIRI'S NOBODY...a BlackGatomon. I can see BlackGatomon having a bit of a teasing Tsun relationship with Namine, poking fun at how Namine spends her time all cooped up by herself in a castle wanting to make friends but is gutless to try to break free from her captors. Deep down, BlackGatomon's actual goal is to help Namine grow more of a backbone and stand up for herself, take some risks, ect. Its main digivolution line to Lilithmon should work, but I can see BlackGatomon occasionally turn into Kuzuhamon whenever she wants to talk about/help Namine with her art and controlling memories.

And that's today's list. Is there any you agree/disagree with? Do you have any ideas of your own? Feel free to let me know. Thanks for reading.))

Hihihi Lemon Drop!!! Hope you're having a lovely day 💛💛💛 Answerer's choice Sora Kingdomhearts or Joshua Kiryu Twewy for the ask game mayhaps??? :0c

hihi happi!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm having a pretty good day, thank you!! and! as u comand <3333333

Sora:

Sexuality Headcanon: bi!! and aromantic sometimes when the moment strikes. he is just a little guy who loves his friends oh so much <3333

Gender Headcanon: transmasc! he can contain so much transmasc swag its unreal. also every kh character is trans because i say so thank you for your time

A ship I have with said character: sorikai is soooo cute. who doesn't love childhood friends to lovers, especially when they all have two hands <33

A BROTP I have with said character: i need him and vanitas to be friends somehow so badly you don't understand. but of the actual relationships he has already him and roxas are so Important to me it's not even funny

A NOTP I have with said character: i'm gonna be real i just don't really get the princess ships. that or like him with any of the wayfinder trio. or just anyone who knew him as small kid when they were grown up.

A random headcanon: i think sora was the first of the island kids to learn how to swim but pretended to not be able to until riku and kairi could as well. he didn't want to swim until they could all swim together.

General Opinion over said character: I LOVE HIMMMM. he's so silly and kind and loveely. i am holding him in the palm of my hand and showing him off to everyone like a cool bug. i am feeding him little treats .i am forcing him to stop sacrificing himself for once in his life

Joshua:

Sexuality Headcanon: look at him. that's a homosexual. a very annoying one in a boring outfit but a Homosexual nonetheless. however. specifically he's homoromantic asexual. to me.

Gender Headcanon: trans man who gets just a little spicy with it (he/they/it in general but He/Him when he's feeling Annoying and she/her on the occasions he feels like it)

A ship I have with said character: i'm BORING okay <- joshneku. however joshbeat is also very funny to me i am smashing them together like barbie dolls.

A BROTP I have with said character: i think josh and shiki would be an incredible duo if they do not kill each other in the first 20 minutes. rather, if she does not kill him. again. also this is probably just dream drop distance talking but joshua and rhyme's dynamic can be SO.

A NOTP I have with said character: i suppose i'm not the biggest enjoyer of him and haz, but honestly i don't really care that much.

A random headcanon: ok this is a pretty common one but that boy definitely killed himself. most dramatically ironic if he did it from falling or a gun but no matter what that boy died by his own hand before he tried doing it again through neku

General Opinion over said character: i hate his ass so much. if anyone insults him theyre right but they are also so so so wrong. no one understands him like i do. i don't understand him either. i would punch him immediately if given the chance. someone needs to drag his ass to therapy yesterday. he's (probably) my favourite twewy character. i hate his stupid gay ass.

#SORRYYY THIS TOOK TEN MILLION YEARS #i had to laundry and then i Kept Getting Distracted #anyway hiii happi <333 enjoy my nonsense ramblings <333 #ask game #happi-tree #mutuals #kingdom hearts #twewy #sora #joshua

I really hope the only reason Kairi has not been at the forefront of kh is because, like nomura often does with the series, he didn’t write a specific and concrete story for her so she could be used at a later point that fit her and the story more and gave him room to really work her in.

She’s the only main character in the series that we truly know basically nothing about which is bananas considering her significance to the story. She’s been a Princess of Heart since the beginning of this story and yet we hardly know what being a Princess of Heart even means? While we really don’t know much about the pasts of most of the main characters we at least know other aspects of their life and personality and abilities because of the journeys we went through with them.

Sure, we don’t know Aqua and Terra’s past and what life on the Land of Departure was like but we’re intimately familiar with their image of themselves, how they view morality and righteousness, their fears and shame and ambitions.

With Roxas, Naminé, and Xion we genuinely know every aspect of their life because we were there for it.

With Riku and Sora we’ve had deep dives (literally) into their subconscious. We’ve seen the worst sides of themselves and the best. We know their morals, their hopes, their feelings. They are easily the two main characters we know the most about.

Even Ven, though his past before and between Khux and BSS is still missing and he’s the most elusive of the main cast, we know about the things he’s chosen to hide from or forgotten against his will. We know about Vanitas and how he was abused by Xehanort (which even Terra and Aqua don’t know much about). We saw his struggle with jealousy and desire and we’ve seen the extent of his anger and his love.

But Kairi? We know a handful of things about her and most of them are just facts, not decisions she’s made or many aspects of her personality. Of Kairi we know,

•She was from Radiant Garden (KH1)

•She’s a Princess of Heart (KH1)

•Her grandma told her about the legend of Worlds and Light, which is connected to the Age of Fairytales (KH1)

•She enjoys writing letters, specifically to Sora (KH2)

•She trained with Axel under Merlin (KH3)

•She is the one who held onto Sora’s image and brought him back / kept him safe (KH1/3)

•She feels strongly about Naminé and thinks she deserves to exist (KH3)

•She was experimented on by Terranort and had her memories messed with (MoM)

And… that’s really it. Of course there are little, nuanced moments scattered throughout the series but they’re very small and rare that it really doesn’t add up to much. Melody of Memory gave us the most tease of the kind of person Kairi is beyond being kind and that’s 18~ years after she was first introduced.

What does Kairi look like at the end of her rope? How does she react under duty and responsibility? What makes her laugh, cry, sentimental? What insecurities does she have? Has she struggled with darkness? What would that look like to her? In depth, how does she feel being left behind beyond “it makes me sad?” There are so many questions to be asked of Kairi’s character and it feels too intentional for her to have “conveniently been forgotten” all this time. Out of 10 protagonists and dozens of other characters both major and minor, she’s the only one with minimal motivations and expressed emotions?

To me it feels like Nomura’s been waiting for the right place to put her and I really hope it’s true because Kairi has SO MUCH POTENTIAL. As a Princess of Heart, as a keyblade wielder, as a student, as a friend, as a person. And it feels like she’s just WAITING to be utilized. I really hope that finally that can happen for her because I know when it does it’ll be phenomenal.

Keys to the Kingdom Preview

Despite Moving Anxiety and whatnot I am off and on working on the next chapter. Here’s a snippet of it, not focused on the Pooh stuff as I’m not quite there yet, but some soft bonding between Sora and Namine bc everybody can use a little of that in their lives:

***

“Could… can you do it?” he asks, the one question she’d been dreading most of all. The fact that this is something he actually wants, something he thinks he needs, when it’s just about the last thing that will ever truly help him. “I don’t… I-I can’t keep dealing with all of this.” His tears come quickly, his hands tightly gripping his mug to the point that his claws scratch its surface. “It’s all so much–too much. Even now that Maleficent is finally gone, I-I can’t stop thinking about what she did to me… I can’t stop thinking about what the master might do to get me away from all of you. I’m so sad and scared all of the time, a-and I just… I hate it! I don’t want to be like this anymore! I just… I… please, Naminé… Just… just take it all away… please…”

Naminé is nearly on the verge of tears herself after hearing all of this. She sighs again, her hand trembling as she reaches across the table to place it overtop of Sora’s. She finally meets his gleaming golden gaze, her voice steady as she tells him the truth, knowing he deserves nothing less and wishing she could give him so much more. “I’m sorry, Sora… but… I can’t…”

“B-but… but you said-”

“I know what I said,” Naminé says, ashamed of such a rash mistake. “And… technically, I can do it, but… I shouldn’t. Vanitas was right when he said wiping your memories won’t change what’s happening to your heart. You’d still look the way you do, you’d still be under Xehanort’s power. You just… wouldn’t know why. And neither would anybody else who wants to help you. But… you know who would remember everything? The Organization would. I can’t interfere with their memories like I can for the lights. If I did this… well, it’d be just like the glamor spell Donald cast on you; nothing more than a temporary fix to a much bigger problem.”

“I don’t care!” Sora protests, rising from his seat. A few stray spikes rise with him, a testament to the anguish that Naminé knows she’s painfully ill-equipped to truly heal him from. “I know I should be happy now that I’m back here with everyone, but I’m not, I can’t be as long as I know what’s coming. But… if I’m able to forget about what’s coming, even for just a little while, maybe I finally can be.”

“You won’t be,” Naminé warns earnestly. “Trust me, Sora; messing with memories only leads to trouble. It did the last time I was forced to do this, and it definitely would if I did it again. Think about it: if the others lose their memories about what’s happening to you, then all of the progress they’ve made in trying to help you will be completely undone. We’ll be no closer to saving you than we were from the very start.”

“W-well… can’t you just erase my memories then?” Sora pleads. “The rest of them don’t have to forget, they could-”

“They do,” Naminé shakes her head. “It’s either all or nothing. That’s just how my powers work, Sora. I can’t just impact your memories alone. And even if I could… I wouldn’t. I know you think that erasing your memories would erase all of the pain you’re feeling, but… that pain would come back sooner or later, it always does. And once it does, it’d be even worse because you wouldn’t even know where it’s coming from. I want to help you, Sora, so much, but… I can’t, not like this.” She stands, a few tears finally slipping down her cheeks as she approaches him slowly, wanting to hug him, though of course, her own nerves hold her back, just as they always do. “The only thing I can do is just… be here to offer you a shoulder to cry on…”

Sora takes that shoulder almost immediately, catching Naminé off guard as he suddenly steps forward and pulls her into a tight, desperate embrace. For as surprised as she is, she gently returns it, doing what she can to provide him the comfort he’s so clearly craving right now. “Sometimes… I wish I had power over time instead of just memories,” she says quietly as she continues to let him pour his grief out. “Because if I did, then I’d go back and undo every horrible thing you’ve been through. What’s happened to you, Sora… it isn’t fair and it isn’t right. I know you might think you’ve done something wrong and that you deserve all of this, but you don’t. Someone as kind and brave and good as you should never have to suffer the way you have. But even if none of us can change the past… at least we can all try to give you a better future…”

“I don’t have a future…” Sora almost says, a miserable thought that’s been lingering at the back of his mind for quite some time now. Because by all accounts, his master has already decided his future for him, a future he doesn’t want, but has no choice but to accept. A future that he’s not even sure his friends, for as courageous and hopeful as they all might be, can even do anything to change.

But instead of telling Naminé any of that, he pulls back, wiping a few of his tears away as he offers her a wavering, largely fake smile. “Thanks…” he says, deciding to accept her final verdict. Realizing that she’s right, in many ways, that taking away his memories wouldn’t do a thing to take away the pain that plagues him inside and out each day. “I… I’m sorry for asking.”

“It’s ok,” Naminé says warmly, patiently. “I shouldn’t have ever suggested it in the first place. I guess that’s something you and I have in common: we both tend to make some… pretty reckless decisions when we’re stressed.”

“You can say that again,” Sora says with a small, yet genuine chuckle, one that Naminé is more than happy to share with him.

The Legend of Hana Chapter 135

Warnings: You guessed it. More angst. We’re not seeing fluff for a LONG time

Rating: SFW

In the Multitude of stars twinkling in the shimmering sky over Yen Sid’s Mysterious Tower, Kairi, Xigbar, Luna, the Foretellers, the Nort brothers and their families met with Mickey and the sorcerer himself.

“Hana and Lily went missing?! Oh no! This is terrible!” Mickey said.

“Them being missing is very bad. Very bad indeed,” Master Yen Sid said.

“Especially since the man that has them is the most dangerous person in the world,” Mukuro added, making Mickey and Master Yen Sid confused.

“He calls himself the Master of Masters. The fact that he’s still around is worrisome,” Ira explained. Master Yen Sid sighed and stroked his beard.

“We must try and stay calm. We have never faced something like this before,” he said.

“Yeah, it’s really hard to be calm right now, old man!” Xigbar said, angrily as he paced back and forth.

“Xig, calm down! You’re scaring Sage!” Luna scolded as she tried to calm her crying son. Xigbar sighed and went to hold his son.

“Sorry. It’s just that the bastard has our daughters. You know what he’s done,” he said to Luna.

“I know. But you heard Master Yen Sid. We have to remain calm.” Xigbar hesitantly nodded and turned back to listen to the sorcerer.

“Kairi. This information you have brought us, it comes from Xehanort during his time as a researcher?” the old master asked.

“Yes,” Kairi responded.

“Then that means he must have been aware of this other world for quite some time.”

“But I worked with the bastard. We were somewhat close. I would’ve known about another world,” Xigbar said and the sorcerer mused for a moment.

“When I was still serving as a Keyblade Master, it was known that the ancient masters had crossed over into another world. I surmise that Xehanort looked more deeply into that world,” he said.

“The ancient Keyblade Masters…” Invi whispered.

“It can’t be us. Do you think it had something to do with Ava’s role?” Gula said. Hearing Ava’s name made Xigbar miss her. Even more than he already did.

“For now, we must reach out to those in Radiant Garden, The Land of Departure, and Japan--” the sorcerer started.

“I’m sorry, did you say Japan?” Luna asked.

“Yes.”

“That’s where my aunt Yuuko lives. Are you asking me to search for her?”

“I am tasking you and the Spirits to speak with her. Perhaps she has the answers we are looking for.”

“Yes, sir!” Luna and the other Spirits said.

“And Kairi, will you continue your training as you were before?”

“Actually, I’d like to study under Master Aqua,” Kairi said.

“I would love to train you, Kairi,” Aqua said with a smile.

“Thank you.”

“Mickey, Vanitas,” Yen Sid said, turning his head toward them.

“Yes,” the two said as they stood up at attention.

“I task the two of you with the investigation of this new world and how it is related to the ancient Keyblade Masters.”

“But how?” Vanitas asked.

“You’ll begin…in the world of Scala ad Caelum. You, Vanitas, know more about that world than Mickey. I trust you to be his guide.” Vanitas nodded and with that, everyone headed out to find some answers.

☽✧☽✧

Meanwhile in Quadratum, Sora and Strelitzia were discussing about the world they were currently in and how to get home. Unfortunately, they couldn’t find any way to get home. It was getting to the point where Sora was starting to get frustrated.

“I should probably tell you that things are different here,” Strelitzia said.

“How so?” Sora asked her.

“Well for example, magic won’t work here. But Keyblades will work.” Sora was shocked. She could wield a Keyblade? Strelitzia saw Sora’s shocked face and summoned her Keyblade, surprising him even more.

“Woah…” he gasped.

“Yeah. Just no summoning it in the apartment. Unless it’s to check if you can still summon it,” Strelitzia said, dispelling her Keyblade.

“Understood.” Silence fell over them as they went back to figuring out ways out of Quadratum. Sora started thinking of Hana and pulled out his phone to look at a picture of the two together. At the ball before the Keyblade War. Strelitzia noticed him and became curious.

“Wow, technology has really gotten better since I was alive,” she said.

“Yeah…” Sora replied, not really paying attention.

“Soo, who’s that?”

“Hana. My girlfriend.”

“She’s beautiful. Hey, I’m getting hungry. Wanna order a pizza?” Sora didn’t answer and kept looking at the photo, wondering if Hana was looking for him. “Sora? You good?”

“U-um, I-I need a moment to myself, if that’s okay,” Sora said.

“Okay.” Sora headed to the balcony where he began to cry, missing Hana and his friends.

“I’m such an idiot! Why didn’t I listen to Chirithy and Monomi,” he sobbed. He continued to cry, until he saw something whiz by him. He couldn’t tell what it was it went by that fast. He looked around but shrugged and was about to head inside when he was tackled down by something. Or somethings. Sora looked over and found Hana’s imps on top of him.

“Huh?!” he exclaimed.

☽✧☽✧

Meanwhile, Luna and the girls had arrived in the streets of Japan. It was way more beautiful than they could ever imagine. But it was also busier than they thought.

“Stay close,” Luna told them. The girls followed Luna through the busy streets till they arrived at what looked like an old shop.

“This is where your Aunt Yuuko lives? It looks abandoned,” Yui commented.

“Well, she doesn’t really get a lot of visitors. Besides, this isn’t any ordinary shop,” Luna winked, leaving the girls confused. “You’ll see soon enough.”

The girls walk into the shop but not even a few seconds in, Luna was attacked by two rabbit like creatures. One was white with a ruby at the top of its head while the other was black and had a sapphire at the top of its head.

“Luna!” Mukuro exclaimed and helped Luna up. The girls heard footsteps and found a young man, no older than Rumi, running up to them. He had short black hair, blue and dark green eyes, and seemed to be wearing a school uniform. He also had on a pair of glasses.

“Oh my gosh! I am so sorry! These guys are hard to get control of- wait, I know you! You’re Luna! Yuuko’s goddaughter!” the man said.

“That’s correct. You’re Kimihiro, right?” Luna asked.

“Y-yes. Kimihiro Watanuki. Is there a reason you’re here?”

“There is. And it’s very important that we see Yuuko. Is she around?” Kimihiro nodded and showed the girls to Yuuko’s office. He knocked on the door and she let him and the girls in. When they walked in, they were met with a young, tall, slender woman with pale skin and black hair that went down to her knees. She had red eyes, which seemed to match her long red kimono. She sat kind of in a lounging position, holding a cigarette holder in her hand. When she noticed Luna, she smiled at her.

“Luna! My beautiful goddaughter!” she said as she stood up. “How are you?”

“I wish I could say I was doing well,” Luna said as she hugged Yuuko.

“Oh. Please have a seat. Explain everything to me.” Luna and the girls sat down and Luna began to explain everything. How the Master of Masters had come back and had taken Hana and Lily.

“I knew it was a mistake for my husband to take that boy in,” Yuuko muttered to herself.

“What was that, auntie?” Luna asked. Yuuko sighed and looked at Kimihiro.

“Leave us,” she said. Kimihiro nodded and left the room, closing the door behind him. Once he was gone, Yuuko looked at the girls with a serious look on her face.

“It’s time I tell you the truth about myself. Along with you and your daughters, Luna,” she said.

To be continued…

the other side of the mirror pt1

@hallowed-nebulae

I stare into the eyes of another me. Another Ruse.

...how? This shouldn’t be possible, should it? I’m certainly no canon character, not canon enough besides the body I’ve possessed for myself. Not enough to fracture out into different versions of myself.

Yet. Somehow. There’s another Ruse. If her name is even Ruse, or if she’s even a ‘she.’ But if she’s me, we would share that much. Wouldn’t we?

There’s other people to see, what looks like another Riku with wings. A Dream Eater Riku, most likely. Maybe one that screwed up with handling Sora’s dreams in DDD, why else would he be here? Also, just crowds of people around us. Some familiar, some not. Most I could probably name, if you gave a moment. And maybe a few reminders. Just one or two.

But none of that is nearly so mind boggling as another Ruse.

"Riku! Why is there another me!"

And it seems this ‘other me’ agrees.

That Riku yawns. Looking pretty tired, his tail lashes at the ground. His wings flutter as he blinks open red eyes. Nightmare eyes.

"Every world has similar worlds to it. Every worldline has another worldline similar to it. There's many Rikus, so it makes sense that there would be more than one Ruse, right?"

But wouldn’t that be really rare? Especially if I don’t exist in a wider canon?

“But Riiikuuu,” she draws out. "Wasn't the whole thing about my worldline the fact that me existing is one of those really rare events?"

Same thoughts that I just had, pretty much. I trace along my face scars, careful not to dig in too deep. It’s kind of scary? Creepy? I don’t know the right words for seeing someone else do exactly what I would do with the Riku I know but being someone else at the same time.

We’re not the same, even if we were the same person once. It’s like with Harper, the bones that I came from. Our paths have clearly diverged if she’s hanging out in the Mirage Arena still where I am not.

(Is...Naminé still with her? Is Rook? Has some version of me not ruined everything?)

"What, like Ven being Ven and not some other Ventus?" Vanitas speaks up. He seems very comfortable with other Ruse, sliding up to her. Like a friend.

“Hey idiot,” she greets him. Her hands are on her hips as she looks him up and down. Focusing more specifically on his leg. "Have you decided if you wanna get Rinoa to heal your leg yet?"

Vanitas hums and smirks. All snarky. "Nah. I'll pass. Scars mean I lived, right?"

Well. He’s not wrong. I fight the temptation to touch my own scars again.

She scoffs. Almost laughs as she shakes her head at him. “You didn't live, you just got your leg ripped off 'cause I had you trapped and you didn't want to admit you were going to lose."

I know Kairi and Xion are busy being horrified by this. I know this. I turn my head, swallow the bile itching at my throat. They’re horrified by this, and they would be horrified by me because I would do the same. I would laugh too, have laughed about something just like this.

At least...Xehanort gets it. His hand is on my shoulder. Warm. Comforting. More than it should be, from someone like him.

Wait...she said something about ripping off Vanitas’ leg. Vanitas...said something about a friend I would like? Like this person who ripped off his leg? Which must mean-

Those jerks! They were totally messing with me! ...I have to admit, that is kind of funny. Thinking about it. Just a little.

But I’m more interested in staring at my doppelganger, as she stares back.

She flexes her hands by her side. I want to do the same. I don’t. One of us has to keep to reason here, seem unaffected by this...this...whatever.

The movement in her hands transforms into a loud clap. I almost flinch. I don’t.

"So! Why are all of you here, anyways? Didn't come for a fight, right?"

Not that I’m aware of. Pretty sure Vanitas wouldn’t mind, it seems raring to go even after the revelation of its near loss of its leg. Kind of makes sense? Vanitas isn’t one to calm down about a fight, whether this version or the version that showed up in the games. Not in real life, not like this.

The Chirthy of the other Xehanort quickly steps in with a head shake and words of their own. "No fights! Not immediately, at least."

She nods, taking that in. The entire group kind of shifts back and forth, instead of saying anything. C’mon, aren’t we here for a reason? I’m about to say something, when my alternate speaks first. Just as impatient as myself.

(Some things never change, huh?)

“So...?” She asks, leaving the words dangling. Waiting for us to fill it in, to give up the facts. A familiar tactic. But not one that lasts long, the other Ruse growing impatient enough to ask more as she bounces up and down on her feet.

"What are you looking for? I'm not in a fight any time soon because Rinoa says I'm not allowed--"

"-- Because you tripped out of the layer last time you were in a fight, I am not putting you and Will in the regular arenas ever again,” the Riku-looking Nightmare inserts dryly.

Will? I pull my attention to focusing on the other Ruse again, putting whatever that is away for later. Because it couldn’t be the Lingering Will, could it?

"-- so I have the free time to help!" She announces with hands on her hips and a soft smile. A Naminé kind of smile, the one she would always use on me to convince me to talk.

My fingers do dig into my face at that. Can’t help it.

Only the flash of another person moving towards us stops me before I burrow in any deeper with sharp nails.

That’s...that’s another Riku Replica. Some part of me just knows, the rest of me recognizes him from the brief encounters I had with myself before...before I lost him.

Rook. Rook, Rook, Rook. Oh Rook.

"Rook! Hey Rook! I'm over here!" She waves frantically to him, calling him over in excitement.

He hurries over in response and I...I...

As the other Ruse explains to him everything about what she knows right now, what’s going with us visitors, I...I look away. I have to. Because if I don’t move away now, I’ll never take my eyes off Rook. Not my Rook, never my Rook,

“Ruse...” Xion whispers. She tugs at my wrist. “Are you okay?”

I force a smile on my face. The same soft smile that went on a mirror of my face. “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me, we just need to get home. Right?”

She eyes me critically but slowly nods. “If you say so.”

Man, Xion is totally going to talk with me later. Capital T-Talk kind of talk. Annoying, who’s the big sister here? I help her, not the other way around.

I move closer to Xehanort, out of Xion’s reach. The Xehanort that I know, watching everything in his distracted observer fashion. Completely ignoring how uncomfortable he seems to be making everyone in the process, especially the other Xehanort.

Everyone but me and the other Ruse, who is really focused on whatever she’s talking about. Guess all Ruses don’t get bothered by Xehanorts, huh? Weird thought.

"That one's disaster parents." Vanitas says, jabbing a thumb in the direction of his Xehanort.

Wait, they’re talking about something else? What did I miss? And hey, my Xehanort’s looking a little surprised by the revelation that his alternate has parents, peering carefully at the individual in question. Since he’s looking a tiny bit surprised, he must be really surprised. Honestly!

Crazy to think, such a huge difference.

The other Xehanort glares at Vanitas as he speaks up to clarify to the interested party.

"We're looking for Sephiroth. We were doing a medical checkup for Ven and Vanitas, but then we realized we don't really know how mako works, so we're hoping Sephiroth can help us, since he's. . . y'know. . ."

Huh, that makes sense. If this Sephiroth has a background with Hojo (fuck that dude), of course he would know mako science stuff. Enough to function, at least.

But Sephiroth? Most likely not actually related, though I’ll keep the possibility in mind that somewhere, somewhen, a Sephiroth helped give birth to a Xehanort. Weird as that may be...

I lean over to whisper in Xeha’s ear. “Probably adopted.”

His shoulders relax, though I’m the only one who could and would notice such a response. He gives me the shortest nod possible. To avoid notice, of course. He hates anyone catching onto possible weakness.

"I can probably find him," the other Riku says. The Nightmare one. Judging by how nearly everyone else kind of jumps, they forgot he was there. I didn’t. I can’t forget a Nightmare so close, the feel of that heavy Darkness and the gleam of red eyes.

(My mouth waters. I’m so hungry.)

Shake my head. Ignore. Don’t eat people, don’t eat people...honestly, if I was a proper Replica or person or whatever, I wouldn’t be thinking about eating people in the first place.

It’s the worst, isn’t it?

Turning my attention to my surroundings always serves as the best distraction, so I decide to do that. Careful to keep close to everyone else, careful to keep an eye out.

So very different from the Arena I wandered. But that only makes sense, right? Dreams of different universes would be different from what I know, making this Dream-built place different too. Also, I have a strong feeling that a Nightmare that isn’t Ultimecia runs this Arena. No version of me would linger with a Nightmare like that around, threatening to feed me to people. The other Ruse seems to know where she’s going, yet she relies on the other Xehanort for most of her directions. As bad as I am, then. What a weird thought. Again, more similarities than differences between us.

Would this be more comfortable, if there were more differences? Like between the Xehanort I know and the Xehanort of here that apparently isn’t an orphan?

(I...don’t know. What can I say?)

She rushes up after a...Cloud? From FF7? I think so, at least. Probably. After a lot of time in the crowd. The other Xehanort sighs but doesn’t bother holding her back. Because no one can hold a Ruse back. Ever.

Well. We’ll see where this takes us. Because I don’t have a plan.

(I never do.)

Kingdom Hearts 3 Part 1

First part of my Kingdom Hearts 3 playthrough under the cut!

For probably the first time ever, this was the least confusing opening cutscene

====================

Everyone says Sora has lost a great deal of power after KH:DDD shenanigans

Um this boy rocketing through the stratosphere and running up walls like he a damn hedgehog but go off I guess

====================

FFS Sora and Donald can you pay attention and stop making Goofy think he is going crazy. He is the most sensible one and I cannot believe I am typing this sentence with my own hands

====================

Ew its Xigbar

====================

Hercules actually looks pretty good this time around?? I'm surprised because his animation is pretty styalised

====================

Ah. Now I know why Maleficent bothers to keep Pete around. Manual labor

====================

I am just Going to cry when we finally see Aqua again

====================

Grabs square enix dev by the shoulders and whispers softly into their ear: I don't. Care. About. The gummi ship.

====================

I JUST WANT TO GET TO THE NEXT WORLD IN PEACE.

====================

Why does anyone let Sora near technology

====================

Okay Remmy is adorable

ALSO SORA WHAT THIS IS NOT HOW YOU COOK, STOP JUGGLING THE SHAKERS

====================

When you are about to get into a new world and then a Heartless boss ship drops in

====================

I have just entered the Toy Story world and I want to say that opening TV show cinamatic with vaguely KH looking characters was extremely disorienting never do that again

====================

"Oh! I can run into stuff and it will pushed out of the way!"

Immediately runs into everything and scatters stuff all over the place

====================

Collapses with laughter for 2 whole minutes watching a whimsical doll heartless sneak up on Buzz Lightyear in a sinister manner

====================

Inception

====================

I am playing a game in which it is possible for the character Goofy to sadly proclaim that Buzz Lightyear has disappeared into a corridor of darkness

====================

The series main villain was just dragged by a wild west sherriff toy

====================

The aliens are perhaps the best thing about this world

====================

So uh...we really doing this huh? We're going to get Roxas a body to inhabit...idk why but having them talk about needing a body to stuff a heart in is the most off-putting thing

====================

Laughs maniacaly while scattering objects off shelves

====================

I don't have a lot to say of Rapunzel world, possibly because it followed the movie closely. Which I appreciate that Sora and his friends impacted that very little.

====================

I love how she introduced Sora and co. to Maximus, and once she mentioned they had been helping her, he immediately nodded like "yes good"

====================

Tbh, possibly because I never played KH:DDD, I am constantly forgetting flow motion is a thing now I just keep running on the ground like some sort of peasant

====================

Also it cracks me up that the world map now very much resembles Mass Effect's

====================

ALSO I stg Sora being like "lol your FACE"at Donald was the most accurate teenager dialog in this entire series

====================

Okay Monsters inc. Sora's 3 mouth is the most adorable thing

====================

1) WAIT HE'S FUCKING REAL OUTSIDE THE DREAMSCAPE??

2) I AM DYING VANITAS HAS LOST ALL DIGNITY IN ONE MOTION LOL

====================

AQUA ;_;

====================

Goofy is actually the smartest one in this trio and he is a sweetheart I will fight you on this

====================

OK but they totally should have called the Teeny Ships, Friend Ships instead

====================

I'm going to be a bit disappointed if these treasure spheres are not a hint for a Treasure Planet world

====================

Ew its Larxene

====================

oh my god I forgot that Elsa's body guard was named Marshmallow that is the best thing ever

====================

unpopular opinion?? I kind of hate that the Pirates of the Caribbean movies got added to the series. Yeah this time around they made more of an effort to blend Sora and co. in by neutralizing their colors and giving them pirate-y outfits, but they still REALLY stand out;;

====================

plus nothing exemplifies the fact that PoC is the wrong tone for these games than the fact that we opened the world with "Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me)", but changed all the lyrics to talk about the plot so we don't have to mention drinking and murder

====================

OR even the fact that Sora and co. were literally led off somewhere else while most of the murder and backstabbing was happening;

====================

If they really wanted some pirates, they should have made it Treasure Planet, is what I am saying -is punched- Seriously though, would have hit the KH aesthetic more, plus Sora getting to solar sail?? damn missed opportunity there

====================

The KH experience is hearing the villains vague talking about their plot and you are:

"...Are they suggesting....OOOHHH MY GOOOO-no wait....is that possible....wait......"

====================

I will give PoC world this tho, they added a zelda WW like explore the Caribbean set up, and this pleases me greatly. Now if only it wasn't fake-Caribbean and I could visit Puerto Rico LOL

====================

Oh wow, with all that posturing and Sora adding in I thought we weren't going to stab Will at all but here we are lmaofhs didn't think you had it in you game

====================

Ok but Goofy and Donald sadly sending Elizabeth off was so cute and sincere I'm crying???

====================

SHUT UP AND WEAR THE NEW OUTFIT AXEL

====================

You full of shit Vexen

Also it is vital to know that my along for my emotional roller coaster gf has dubbed him Kid Rock

====================

How dare you hit me with these Roxas feels I was very unprepared

====================

SORA YOU TAKE THAT KEYBLADE AND RETURN IT TO AQUA I STG

====================

Okay but I cannot with Rikus new keyblade looking like a car key lmao

====================

AQUA BBY NO Q_Q

====================

AQUAS CRYING IM CRYING SHES HOME MY BABY'S BACK THANK YOU SORA YOU BEAUTIFUL BOY QvQ

====================

VENS BACK TOO NOW WE JUST NEED TO FIND THAT DOOFUS TERRA

====================

And Axel still needs so many hugs

====================

Tbh the pairing of Kairi and Sora has always seemed extremely heteronormative to me but then again maybe its because Kairi is never around to see them interact ffs

====================

I'M STILL REALLY SUSPICIOUS, but Vexen's interaction with Demyx was hilarious as fuck

====================

Lmao omg the frame rate on this heartless/nobody/unversed army is so sad I'm dying

I mean I understand completely but LOL

====================

I never thought I'd see a heartless tornado I could describe as a category five jesus fuck

====================

....UMM;; YEAH OK I THINK WE ARE SUPER DEAD???

====================

This is an extremely trippy limbo

====================

...SORA ARE WE NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT HOW YOU HAVE LIVED THIS MOMENT BEFORE???

====================

Xehanort: Blah blah darkness will win blah blah I'm so evil

Terra: Surprise bitch, thought you'd seen the last of me.

OKAY I GUESS THIS IS HAPPENING NOW

====================

..shit this means I have 13 boss fights >_>

…plus whatever fuckery could happen last minute;;

I feel it is important to add that, in between the last couple days I have maybe spent 5 collective hours circle talking with myself on "wait is this really it?? Am I truly at the final battle??"

====================

and its one part: jrpgs are never that simple and one part: but we still have like SEVEN unaddressed plot points going on game and heaven help me if you apply them all at once in the last hour

====================

Xigbar if you actually believed that, you are the biggest fool of all of them

also Sora pls, they were assholes I know you are a kind boy and I squish your face but they do not deserve words of comfort

====================

TERRA IS BACK AND TELLING AQUA AND VEN HOW THEY LIT THE WAY FOR HIM AND EVERYONE IS CRYING AND HUGGING AND I AM DESTROYED BY FEELS

====================

ROXAAASSSS MAH BOOOIIIII

THERE IS SO MUCH HUGGING I CANT

====================

So wow….that was quite the ride… wow but wait what about the box and why are those people in the credits they weren't-

stinger cutscene plays

WHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATT

#what does the fox play #a fox plays KH3 #KH3
