so this is listed on rikus character page on tvtropes under ‘the atoner’, but i cant remember it being stated anywhere
Within the first game, Word of God indicates that his primary motivation for saving Kairi was out of guilt that he was inadvertently responsible for her condition.
can one of my fellow kh nerds help me source this, its gonna bug me otherwise
It’s from the kh1 ultimania! You can read it under the illustrations section here
The things Riku does to restore Kairi’s heart are perhaps less about his feelings for her and more about his regret over sins he has committed? Or so I think. He’s a surprisingly immoral guy.
thank you @peregrine-falcon and thank you nomura for confirming way back when in the kh1 ultimania that his regret over her condition > his feelings for her
bc hes gay

is this ship popular because it’s legitimately compelling or is it popular because it’s the easiest to decontextualize and write college roommate AUs about?
this post broke containment and is getting ‘let people have fun and enjoy things’ comments, so i want to clarify that i hate fun and want to personally bludgeon everyone who has ever written a college roommate AU with a hammer
Yea, you had changelings and demonic possession and “brats” and “back talk”, and kids that were “not all there”, your aunt who’s “crazy”, and your second cousin no one ever talks about cuz he’s “special”, and if you’re fucking lucky, your elder uncle who lives a nice quiet life with his 70 lego sets and writes grocery stores about changing the light bulbs cuz they’re too harsh.
not to put this user on blast, but ohmygod this may be the funniest thing i’ve ever seen 😭😭
always make sure to start forging parents’ signatures on the first day of class. that way, your teachers won’t know that you’ve been forging signatures for the rest of the year
hey I’m seeing some concerned parents and teachers in the notes, and I just want to say:
sometimes autistic people still come across as weird, annoying, creepy, rude, “unlikable”, or incomprehensible even when they’re talking to other autistic people. autism is a communication disorder first and foremost. even if we can generally have fewer problems communicating with one another than with allistics, that doesn’t mean that it’s entirely a “language barrier” so to speak. our communication is still impaired even when we’re talking to each other.
