#namine doesnt :(

[haunted-xander]

I think they should be friends. Sad little girls with white dresses and identity issues

[nebuvoid]

kingdom hearts is so funny though. for all the obvious reasons but also you have KH2 try to convince you the entire time that actually Roxas and Naminé will be fine back in Sora and Kairi, yeah they struggled and suffered but they'll be content, and the ending shows you this

like see they're fine they'll be ok :)

and then all the games after it's like no actually they're still miserable and heartbroken and their Somebody's hearts are prisons oopsie everyone lied our bad

[ghostbunnie]

I found this polaroid of us

[gulava]

What's going on? Everything's black and white.

[holleighgram]

Here, have a cute little headcanon as treat:

Now that Xion doesn't have to wear her organization coat, she gets really into fashion and sewing. He makes her own dress as well as the outfits we see Axel and Isa in at the end.

Olette is also into photography so the 2 of them team up to do fashion shoots with the boys as the models.

[dreamsy990]

my thoughts on ddd basically boil down to "great game! kill the story with fire and sticks." which i think is about the coldest take ever. do not get me started on how nobodies having hearts is a dumbfuck plot twist i am so full of rage over that.

[luxu-loveskh]

Naminé,Xion and their new friend Isa just left the house Isa lived in.

He noticed how torn up xions old clothing where and how often Naminé injured herself do to the impracticallity of her clothing.

So he gave them some of his old clothing.

Xion was at first suprised at all the dresses he had, he shrugged when she asked him about it.

In the end she chose to not continue asking. she got free clothing so whose she to judge.

Meanwhile Naminé didnt know what she wanted to wear.

She liked the comfort her clothing gave and she feared they would see it.

Isa told her they can get her new clothing for herself at radiant garden

it wasnt far from here,so she accepted.

Isa still made her pick new shoes and a new jacket since he didnt want her to be cold.

The blues where nice so Namine was not upset by it.

Although shes wondering.... she saw a coat like xions.... an organization coat inside the closet.... Xion doesnt know him but there already where only 12 members when xion joined.

Did he maybe quit the organization and ran away like Xion? Was he tricking them into trusting him,only to betray them and deliver them to the organization?

Naminé hoped none of these where true.

She wondered if maybe,just maybe

something far worse then what she can imagine happened to Isa.

but no matter what

she cannot ask him

it could be to dangerous

So now they are just traveling to radiant garden.

i agree so much with what you said in the previous ask. i think the reason the song didnt vibe at first with a lot of people is because it didnt fit the opening. the other openings have beats that drop and specific actions that fit, (think kh2.. serene music for the island segment then the beat drops when sora hops from the tree to battle in hollow bastion, - in kh3 you have terra going super saiyan and the music is calm from example - back to kh2 opening "my sanctuary" when sora finds kairi in hollow bastion, "i watch you fast asleep" while kairi stares at the sea, kairi and namine lipsyncing the song basically, the song changing going back to sora and co fighting "my hears a battleground" and the best one the beat dropping when roxas literally drops from sora)

In kH3 the cinematic is amazing, the music is great, it just doesnt melt together

sorry late reply! YES exactly. Its honestly surprising because every cinematic opening before KH3 did such a good job with the visuals matching the tempo and "momentum" of the music.

​the ONE part I feel matches is when the "door of light" is opening over the various characters.

[thehandwixard]

anyways my most insane kh headcanon that completely contradicts canon but i think i should be right (i get one) is that roxas was not actually made at the same time and because of the same event as namine, but at the *beginning* of kh1 where destiny island was destroyed. walk with me here.

riku holding out his hand to sora, dragging them both into the darkness. riku disappears and, suddenly, in a flash of light, sora is completely fine and given the keyblade.

shortly after, he finds kairi, who says his name sadly and falls into him, incorporeal.

we dont really know exactly why or how kairi lost her heart, only that it did and found its way into sora

the sequence where destiny islands is destroyed is abstract in a very

enjoyable way, and while the events in it dont *need* to be explained, but here's my pitch. sora lost his heart to the darkness and it was ejected from his body at this event, and kairi's heart leaving her body was specifically to save sora from being lost, on some conscious level or not

to me, this would clear up how kairi is able to heal sora from his shadow form later. itd basically be the same thing she was doing this entire time.

i feel like this would also clear up why sora doesnt experience a marked change in power or personality right after he recovers from being a shadow (in an in-universe sense, out of universe its because of gameplay reasons and also roxas was not.. a concept yet) as he wouldnt have had his body the whole time. this also means sora would have been a heartless the whole goddamn time just like ansem which tickles me. i feel like it gives kairi the tiniest extra bump of agency in choosing, in some way, to help sora too, instead of losing her heart for arbritary reasons. anyways thank you

occasionally enjoys RPGs too

calls Riku when he gets stuck on a hard part

sometimes plays fighting games with Riku. He always loses

Riku 💙

I can't see him doing content, I feel like he'd be more of a private person

although i feel like he might show up in Sora's streams from time to time

he's the person Sora calls when he gets stuck on a hard part

Sora also calls him to get his reaction to certain things. if not in person, then thru discord

also plays fighting games and Mario Kart with Sora and Kairi sometimes. He wins almost every time, Sora accuses him of cheating

Kairi 🌸

as for gaming, i can see her streaming rhythm games, like Project Diva

also plays Terraria

plays Animal Crossing with Xion

sometimes plays Smash and Mario Kart with Sora and Riku. she's gotten a couple wins, but Riku is surprisingly good at the game and wins a lot

very down to earth and is sweet with her chat

​is amused by Lea's screaming when he's not playing with him

​plays games with Lea and Ven

​does not understand Roxas and Lea's memes

Aqua ❄️

i think it's canon that she likes to bake, so i think she could run a cooking channel or a cooking blog

she'll have terra or eraqus come in at the end to taste test the food

canonically is into arts and crafts, so maybe she'll make videos about jewelry-making and 3D printing

i can also see her making crystal bracelets

maybe she could run her own online shop?

Terra 🤎

defo a gym bro

​does workout tutorials

​does those videos where he shows what he eats in a day

Ventus 💚

Aqua doesnt too much understand it either

[thefreshprinceofjunes]

that soriku and the little mermaid gifset is killing me bc like

we have parallels between all the disney princess couples in the games and soriku???? i think??????? not just one but ALL?????????

like

snow white: probably weakest, but snow white ‘dead’ (asleep) and the prince saving her with love (ddd)

cinderella: also weaker but uhhhhh at the very least theres fairy godmother sending cinderella off to the ball to fufill her dream (MoM). and prince charming desperately looking for her is kinda?? soras journey in the first few games?????

sleeping beauty: ditto only true loves kiss breaking the spell (ddd) and also, aurora having a connection to prince phillip through her dreams (ddd/re:mind)

the little mermaid: ariel wants to leave the ocean and go explore another world. followed by eric looking for her, but shes been rEPLACED BY SOMEONE ELSE (VANESSA AKA NAMINE) WHOS USING SOMETHING OF HERS TO DISGUISE THEMSELF (ARIELS VOICE AKA THE METEOR SHOWER MEMORY) OH SHIT I JUST REALIZED THIS RIGHT AS IM TYPING THIS OUT WAIT WAIT HHOLD ON oOKAY okay im good im good now.  and then heres the gifset that started this all of course (kh2/re:coded)

beauty and the beast: right here babey! (kh1/kh2/ddd/com) + also this (chi)

aladdin: jasmine rebelling and sneaking out of the palace to go see the world. and this is from tvtropes but, ‘When Sora calls out for Riku after the second battle with the Parasite Cage, the staging of the scene is identical to when Aladdin called out for Jasmine after defeating Jafar in Agrabah: the Hero frantically calling out for their Love Interest as the room collapses around them while their allies drag them to safety.’ theres probably more with them but idk and its 4:30 am as i type this (kh1) ETA: aladdin and jasmine are directly compared to sora and riku in recom!

mulan: here + here >:^) (kh2 novel/ddd)

tangled: rapunzel wanting to leave her tower to see the world (kh3 novel) + this, after eugene is brought back to life with the power of true love (ddd)

and then frozen world doesnt even HAVE a couple BUT it does have anna and elsa! who are DIRECTLY compared to sora and riku!!! using the word love in english!!!! and the word used previously to describe rikus precious person in japanese (taisetsu)!!!!!!  here + here + multiple taisetsu links here

also uh???? anna frozen in ice??? sora frozen if you lose the yozora fight in re:mind???? hello???????????

ETA: okay wait there are some kristoff and anna parellels i forgot about/didnt think about IRT soriku LOL

(thank you @nobodyriku​)

literally the only disney princess couples (from the official disney princess lineup) that arent paralleled with soriku are pocahontas and (blech) john smith, and tiana and naveen. and thats bc those worlds arent in the games.

and HONORABLE MENTION goes to herc and megara. like even besides the taisetsu parallels, in the original movie theres herc diving into the river styx to save megaras soul. 

you know. like sora literally breaking time and space to save his friends, which starts with him following rikus light through the tunnel. where it kind of looks like hes swimming through water?????

and riku is the first one he finds

in. olympus.

like. do you see this. are we all seeing this. because holy moley, when you put it all together, its a lot

[rhythmmortis]

i am so curious. whos your favorite of organization 13 (the original but the "real" is fine too if u have any particular favorites) . i feel like roxas and xion are obvious answers because if you hate either of them you're just sucks. but other than them

xion is 100% my favourite org member hands down, both her role in the original and the 'real', but if not her then larxene literally showed up for one game, served cunt, was a bitch, and died. and then came back. and i love her so fucking much for it. when she dies in 3 she literally just admits that she didnt give a shit about xehanort shes just there for the drama and i love her so much for it, she also has cool ass knives which i gotta respect her for

she's also just like. an ACTUAL antagonistic original kh female character!! kairi, aqua, xion, namine, olette, and the other original kh girls are all protagonists or at least on the side of light which is cool but it leads to a lot of similarities in characterisation and not much variance. but larxene. she fucking kicked a child then threatened another with her knives. UNAPOLOGETICALLY. then comes back in kh3 in the frozen world and actually makes a good point about having to autonomy of choice. but in general she sucks and i love her for it!! i was recently thinking about either a com roleswap between her and marluxia/a personality swap with them (theyre already relatively similar being co-conspirators and all but slightly stoic and mysterious/ominous larxene and marluxia being more of a taunting bitch about someone sora forgot about and constantly withholding that information just out of reach (which would be a good parallel to his own experience with strelitzia and his whole past) is a dynamic i would love)

her voice acting is also very enjoyable AND my favourite spell is thunder so i gotta give her that. one thing i will say is that i was kinda sad that her remix of the 13th struggle in the kh3 data bosses is the most similar to the original and she doesnt get anything too unique. especially given the fact that saix has ELECTRIC guitars and not her, i really think it wouldve gone hard. my one wish for her in the future (since it looks like ux characters will be relevant) is that they dont just completely erase her personality and let her keep some of that edge, i dont want her to be washed down to another demure, generic supporting female character.

i can also say that my very very least favourite org member is xaldin because i have a strong personal grudge against david dayan fisher (xaldin's eng va) that i cannot say without revealing some very personal information. when i say personal grudge i dont mean theres like an obscure fact about him that i wont ever actually experience or be affected by that i dont like, i mean this is a very real/personal thing that i do not like him for. in person (its not that serious but i love being a hater. and i will never forgive him)

[maverickflare]

hii very random ask but whenever i think of namine i think of ur au design for her and i get curious what its abt

OH !!! namine i like working w her a lot uhm-

well generally the process for namine there is working w the idea that bc she was formed from kairis heart being released from soras body, she could never have remerged with either of them. but she was unaware of this fact and prepared to face her own non-existence again following the story beats of kh2, however she just.....doesnt stop existing. it upsets her Greatly and kairi ends up staying w her to console her.

it is an event that makes her feel like a liar (since she stressed to roxas that this would kill her too earlier) and kind of doubles down a lot of her worst fears abt her existence and not belonging anywhere or ever being able to rlly be Whole.

she stays in the story after this, with an entire plot i had cooked for her essentially taking the place of the plot of coded where namine explores her own powers and soras amnesia and forms a very close bond w kairi. she ends up asking to travel w riku bc she still feels very close to them considering their time spent together and is given a staff of her own and works w the faeries to design herself a new outfit. hypothetically she could wield a keyblade but she explicitly chooses not to claim that bc it makes her feel like a copy of someone else and would weaken what connection she did have w it via her own misgivings, so shes wound up as a mage.

there is another thread w her after that point but it mostly wraps up w her and kairi figuring out their identities in relation to each other (they agree that calling themselves Twins is the simplest way to do it but isnt entirely accurate its just where they end up at) and then later her mini heroes journey w the strelitzia corruption arc i had planned idont remember how much of that ive spoken about though.

[jellyfishvibes]

For funzies im trying to make a chronological timeline of the kh games and the days-com-1-2 snarl is really annoying to untangle

Specifically trying to map out the events of com to the day numbers in days

Based on the secret reports/roxas diary we know: The C.O team is sent there on Day 23 Sora has entered the castle by Day 24 Vexen is dead by Day 26 Roxas and Xemnas (?) meet at the Dark Margin on Day 27 Marluxia is still alive by at the very least Day 27 Roxas passes out on Day 27-8 Roxas wakes up on Day 50 Everyone in Castle Oblivion is dead by Day 51 Axel has lost track of 'the Keyblade master and the other intruders' on Day 52 Axel gets back to the org on Day 71 By the cutscene of his dream its implied Sora enters the Flower pod the day Roxas wakes up which makes things get weird

Ok so the current way i have it places Roxas passing out as the same moment Sora gets put in the pod which maths to com taking place over an absolute max of 4 days, which is very fast but sure i can accept that If it is however what i think it is, and Roxas waking up is the same moment Sora falls asleep things get super weird Of the 13 floors in the castle, Sora would have to clear floors 1-11 in 2 days (Day 24-26) but doesnt get to floor 13 and get to atleast the Axel 2 fight for another 2 days (Day 28) and both the first and second Marluxia fight and the cutscenes afterwards of Namine explaining things and putting Sora in a pod takes 22 days (Day 50) Which i just- can't accept, thats too stupid even for this timeline There are other things like, Xion says in the secret reports (Day 50) that she lost the ability to use her keyblade the same day or very soon after Roxas woke up They both meet up on the clock tower And Roxas doesn't see her again, its not until Day 73 he says shes missing, saying that he hasnt seen her for at least 10 days which, great math Roxas you haven't seen her for 23 days, Xions secret report is day 73's so that implies she was sent on the mission to fight the Veil Lizard on Day 51 and Saix never like followed up? Like she was outside Twilight Town for 23 Days, cause if not and she disappeared 10 days beforehand like Roxas said then shes been doing missions for 13 days and no one noticed she wasn't collecting any hearts?

Actually numbering the days of the timeline is both a blessing and a curse
