SO looking forward to finding out whatever the hell the dynamic between the Player, Brain, and Luxu is gonna be for ML <3 Luxu is on thin fucking ICEEEEE bro
Kingdom Hearts is fucking crazy because I just thought "omg what if Sora and Bragi met each other, they'd probably be such good friends" and then I realised
Rewatching the KHDR cutscenes and it really is fascinating how obvious the Bragi/Luxu thing is on a second playthrough. Like we all know the Brain/Bragi/Braig name similarities and stuff but it is very interesting how close Bragi seems to Eraqus.
It makes a lot of sense if you’re thinking of Luxu, of course he’d want to stay close Eraqus, he’s the living legacy of the keyblade masters of old, it’s a sure bet he’d be important, and isn’t it his role to keep an eye on anything that looks like it matters?
to this day i am still losing my mind over Ven being teased prior to his introduction with lines from Xigbar "He always used to give me that exact same look" (to Sora, who's got Ven's heart in) and "Why is it that you always have to glare at me like that/you always look at me like I killed your goldfish" (to Xion, who's got Ven's face on) and then when he's properly introduced in BBS the two have. one line of dialogue in terms of interaction.
and THEN. THEN KH3 is like "Xigbar is Luxu! From the keyblade war!" and we're like "oh so Luxu and Ventus are going to have interactions in KHUX then?" and the dev team is like "nope! :)" so to this day they still only have that one bit in BBS. what are you hiding Nomura whats their deal
