And while Riku IS all those things, there’s the sense that Yozora is like an overly idealized version of those qualities.

It’s kinda funny how if Yozora looks like that because he’s got Sora’s memories of Riku, he’s basically a representation of how Sora sees Riku as this tall, stoic, handsome, impossibly cool action hero. Kinda like how he sees Hercules, except, you know. /Riku/.

“Stop making everything about Soriku”
Nomura made a puddle of water about Soriku my friend. Take your issues up with him.

I am really sensitive to droning sounds like this, I already nearly lose my mind every fall because of leaf blowers. I would legitimately end up in a hospital if this shit was built near me.

“AI is amazing, AI can do so much, we need to consider ethical use of AI” this is the cost. This is the tangible human cost. You wanna use AI? Great, move near a data center. Good luck sleeping. Don’t act like you’re entitled to benefit from shit that you never see the downsides of.

Oh nooo don't clip this noo

I know everything is on fire right now but we have to call about this, we’re already calling about everything else, just add it to the pile. The grief I feel rn is indescribable but to them it’s just any given weekday.

Sora scoota towards Riku as he lies down on the shore of the realm of darkness.

will you meet me with the tide #soriku

Here's the number for the congressional switchboard. Please call your reps and senators. This man needs to be removed from office now.

Yozora is a rich boy, he can just pay for Sora’s apartment

Sora doesn’t understand computers at all, types on his gummiphone like an 80 year old grandma, and got thrown into a modern megacity where he has to contend with capitalism to pay the bills…oh Sora I’m so sorry, you got thrown into hell

Sora is so cute I love himmmm 😭

Sora looking at the drawings in the secret place which smoothly transitions into a sketchy looking flashback

I just think it would be neat if kh leaned into the art style variety of Disney more.

Imagine if we got hand drawn animation flashback scenes of baby Sora, Riku and Kairi….like as a more stark contrast to the realism of Quadratum compared to “Disney Land” (Destiny Island being an anagram of “It’s Disney Land”)

Played around with some Luca sea monster designs for Sora and Riku!

Adoro a este tío.

a greyscale sketch drawing of sora (kingdom hearts) asleep with a soft smile on his face. His cheek laid on top of his crossed arms. A small dream-eater riku with wings, glowing akin to tinkerbell, whispers something in his ear.

sora and riku chat and stare at each other with empty word bubbles surrounding them. They both look fond (and in love)

digs up these two while i'm rummaging through the vault (my folders) #soriku

greyscale sketch of sora kingdom hearts, knees bent, and arm mid-swing, calling on his keyblade

two greyscale sketches of sora kingdom hearts, the first one with a wide stride and arm up, keyblade on his shoulder. The second, arm swinging back and both feet closer together. Together they look like he's running.

happy belated bday to sowa (from 2023) #myart #kingdomhearts
