#riku: smiling

PRESS TRIANGLE FOR SORA!!!!

When Sora thinks about being happy with Riku again……..

[bramblequeen]

I originally did this for Mermay but then lost the motivation for it. I usually do one piece for Mermaid Month but I was a wee bit overwhelmed this year.

Not going to lie, I’m not impressed by it and it’s a reminder that I really need to work on anatomy

Also slightly inspired by that one Sora Piece I did a while back found here

Finally getting caught back up with ST★R: Strike It Rich

A spin-off of the Kengan Ashura series set in the same universe (also How Heavy Are the Dumbbells That You Lift?).

Forgot how much I loved this little psychopath, Hongou Hina, who lives for nothing but fighting in the ring:

Oh, and she let out the mother of all creepy smiles a couple chapters before this one:

There are 21 chapters translated so far but I would love if this one would gain more traction, especially since Teppuu was canceled and had a similar vibe to it if quite a bit less crazy.

Oh, and if you want muscle women they come in spades:

Riku is Always Smiling at Sora

Can we take a moment to appreciate that Riku only smiles or laughs mainly when Sora is around.

Not saying he doesn't with other characters but he mainly does that with Sora.

He usually is just serious around them and could be considered rude like in the land of dragons when the others called him rude.

In BBS, when Riku is talking to Terra he is seen smiling because he is talking about wanting the strength to protect the most important person to him (which is heavily implied to be Sora)

Then when Sora calls for Riku, he waves with a smile.

In KH3, he is shown to be talking about Sora with Mickey about how he is able to feel better in the darkness because of Sora. And he smile at that thought.

Then in these manga panels, Riku is smiling because he is with him and he's enjoying that they're together along with their honest conversation.

Then he is always laughing whenever Riku is with him since he is the one who always cheers Riku up.

During KH3 end battles, Riku goes over to Sora to make sure he is okay and seems to smile at Sora to help him feel better.

Nomura even changed the expression of Riku in Remind to not smiling at Naminé.

He smiles/laughs...

Whenever Sora is there

When talking to people about Sora.

When talking to Repliku in KH3.

at Mickey because he helped him through some things. And their dynamic is great.

Sora has Goofy and Donald, Riku got Mickey.

But Riku smiles the most as Sora and it's honestly really cute.

However, it can go the same way for Sora cause he acts sillier and is way more concerned about Riku.

Sora always wears his emotions on his sleeve to everyone and often makes people laugh, but when he's with Riku it's saying something.

The difference in Demyx's reactions to Riku vs. Sora is pretty funny

[landprince]

real questions: out of sora and riku who's the one that keeps saying dumb shit to make the other laugh when they're both delirious with exhaustion after having stayed up all night and who's trying not to throw up from laughing while also begging the other to go to sleep?

Getting all 😳😊 when Sonic says that he considers them a friend

[robotsafari]

deep in the kingdom hearts trenches..

[dnangelic]

girlfriend line up

[aitsuheart]

so it's apparently delusional to like Soriku

and think they have moments together

but i once saw someone who said Sora and Kairi kissed at the end of kh3

double standards

and not one ship is considered canon either

the most we have is Nomura saying that Riku doesn't like Naminé so he changes the scene so he is not smiling

that is still one of the most hilarious things

Three Words

It's time for FANFICTION WITH SOAP! Haha, just a little thing for @knightfeared, just because. :)

~ Three Words ~

“I like it when you smile.”

Moonlight played over the walls, filtering in through the curtains and casting dancing shadows over the room. The soft rumble of traffic and the low hum of a refrigerator broke the silence of the small apartment. Not only was it quiet, but very little moved within; a fan whirred and turned back and forth in the bedroom. Out in the living room, papers on a coffee table fluttered with the faint breeze coming through the open window. “But I love it when I'm the reason.”

Laying on the couch, one knee bent upwards with the sun flickering along his body, was a powerfully built young man with silver-white hair. He wore white socks and dark blue jeans and a black t-shirt with the number seventy-seven up by the shoulder in yellow. An arm lay draped over his eyes. His other arm, bearing a dark blue wrist brace, hung over the side of the couch, fingers grazing against the floor. “I can't do everything.”

Somewhere in the apartment, a phone began to ring, the musical tone a catchy, victorious sort of fanfare from a video game. Drawing a deep breath, the arm over his eyes moved, his hand coming to rest on his face. Riku opened his eyes and stared up at the ceiling, making no move to get up and answer the still ringing phone. “But I'd do anything for you.”

The phone stopped ringing and he closed his eyes, breathing out slowly through parted lips and running his hand through his hair.

“You loved me.”

The corner of Riku's mouth curled upward and he drew in another slow breath as a tear slid down into his hair. Somewhere in the apartment, the phone started ringing again and he opened his glassy, sea green eyes again, another tear dripping down the side of his face to dampen his hair and the couch cushion.

“When I couldn't love myself.”

He sat up, turning his head to look at the phone ringing on the side table by the couch, lips trembling with his smile.

“I will find you.” Reaching over, Riku picked up the phone with one hand and wiped at his tears with the heel of the other. The phone continued to ring, its cheery, victorious tune making the soft moonlight feel warmer somehow. “In every lifetime.”

The phone stopped ringing and he gently touched the missed calls notification on the screen, lightly tracing the letters of the contact name with a finger tip.

“You keep my feet on the ground.”

There came a sudden knock on the door and Riku looked quickly to the side, his grip tightening on the phone, breath hitching in his throat. “And I keep your head in the clouds.”

Another knock sounded on the door along with a shout of his name and tossing the phone to the side, Riku stood up from the couch.

“I can't stop thinking about you toady.”

He stepped around the edge of it, hurrying towards the door, his apartment suddenly feeling so much bigger than it ever had before.

“Tomorrow.”

The closer he got to the door, the further away it seemed to be. There came another knock and another shout of his name, this time the voice uncertain and even a little hesitant.

“Always.”

Suddenly the door was there and riku practically ran into it. Fumbling with the door lock and handle, he struggled to get his voice to work, to unglue his tongue from the roof of his mouth so that he might speak, so that he might let the person on the other side know he was there. “If I know what love is.”

Yanking the door open, he stared wide eyed at the beautiful, brown-haired man standing on the other side. Blue eyes looked at him in surprise and then in worry and then a hand was touching his face, his name falling from the mans lips. “It is because of you.” Reaching out, Riku cradled his visitors face and stroked his cheeks with his thumbs. He heard him asking if he was okay and the truth was...

“I'm at my happiest.”

Drawing him into his arms, Riku hugged him tight and pressed a kiss to the top of his head, eyes closing as he held him close. “When I'm with you.”

Arms circled around him, hands resting on his lower back. Holding, loving and protecting him with something only they had. “I love you.”
