small comic i've been working on and off on of an au of subjectx!skuld that i call "big sister skuld"

the basic premise is that when she escapes she's dropped off on destiny islands to then be eventually found by small sora, get adopted by his mom, and become his big sister :)

hi so what the hell does this mean

yesterday me and a friend were discussing the logic of how death and time travel worked in KH vs. also yesterday when I tried to explain how nobodies worked to a friend who’s never played KH

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective

Hope you enjoy this silly animation, and have an AWESOME day

post-game kitty shenanigans

ok so since keyblades are able to shift forms, what if that's what marluxia's scythe and larxene's knives are? originally lauriam and elrena's keyblades had the ability to transform, but when they lost their hearts and became nobodies, their weapons lost their true forms alongside. i think that would be pretty neat.

everyone talking about brain being a horsegirl, but instead of a real horse he just has one of these and goes to these events

!???

YOU GOT IT BOSS!

The initial fic is right here, "darkness in the basement" (i really need to keep working on the fic oof)

but I'll go into more detail here (including a bit of spoilers under the cut because i really wanna blabber about this)

Okay so! When Ventus destroyed their heart, his half got rescued by Sora, but Vanitas' half was basically cast out into the void with no body to return to. So when Aqua brought Ventus' empty body to the Land of Departure and subsequently Castle Oblivion, he was dragged along with, ending up in the lowest floor while Ventus slept in the highest floor.

He's stuck as a Flood now because he no longer has a body. I like to think the Vanitas Remnant really is that; a pitiful attempt at anything that's left of him trying to restructure himself, but only ending up as an Unversed recreation. That's what the Vanitas in this story is, his mind was too weak to truly bring himself back initially and that's why he's in the form of an Unversed at first, because he's not human anymore. Up until a certain point. It's also why his dark suit is now white instead of red (there's no symbol on his helmet though).

Eventually, with the help of

inhumane science experiments

he gains enough energy to have the ability to transform into other forms of Unversed, though the Flood tends to be his preferred form until he regains his human appearance. But you can't exactly sit on someone's shoulder parrot-style as human, now can you?

Skipping forwards a lot, Vanitas eventually ends up in Radiant Garden around the time of Dream Drop Distance and after being a little shit for a few weeks, is finally reunited with the only person he's ever really tolerated that he watched, you know, die. I say "tolerated" because they weren't really friends in Castle Oblivion, only truly bonding in Radiant Garden and become practically inseparable (you know those neck pillows? yeah that's flood form vanitas wrapped around ienzo's shoulders)

Also because he's still connected to Ventus, he feels when Xehanort tries to possess Sora and ends up having a panic attack because he thinks Xehanort is coming after him again :)))

(the image is bigger then i intended but meh)

design from my vanitas and ienzo friendship au where vanitas is turned into a flood after dying bbs, trapped in the basement of castle oblivion, and eventually gains the ability to transform into any unversed form

one common thing is the red marks along his chest being consistent in every form. this includes his human form, both on his skin and the dark suit, which has turned to similar colors to the remnant colors, just with the remaining red on his chest.

he burining

you think elrena was always a bit of a sadist and larxene was as bad as she was because she lost her morals?

Is That The Fucking Biolizard?!?!

working on a skuld comic and an expression in it had my friend making a fake js joke, and through the transit of more jokes, this now exists

the ephemer and skuld are from this post

me rn

love these idiots. absolute bastards to each other. best friends.

thanks kh for indirectly teaching me what a bird of paradise flower is because i saw a woman holding a pot full of them irl for the first time and was :O

he has a chokehold on my mind

yeah

au of the au in this post, the wayward void part i mean (twitter ver with more details);

so when xehanort split ventus, what if he wasn't able to physically split him, only his heart becoming two while his body is (debatably) fine. xehanort still names vanitas after he realizes what happened though.

visually, their heart would now look like a combination of this post and the example in this post, as the now split ventus would be able to summon unversed just like in the original au, which i don't think i've ever actually mentioned it before anywhere oops.

what happens after that, i'm not sure. it would probably lead to similar circumstances of my darkness awakened ventus au which is probably my most fleshed out au. hell i could probably just integrate it as the beginning of that au, though it already has a proper-ish beginning... hmm... i dunno it feels like too much

(that au ventus uses darkness to save himself from the neo shadows and is therefore never dropped off at eraqus')

fanart of one of my favorite fanfictions "The Tie that Binds" (or as my mind has it filed as: "evil ventus and evil terra gaslight aqua") by @arcawolf

i love all of the story, but the way it ends is my favorite because it's such an emotional scene as well as a bit on the morbid side like "holy shit what did they do" especially because of the pov chosen

i realize making a meme about it doesn't really convey how much i love it, but yeah oh well

so i'm not entirely sure how to articulate this well but i was thinking about the ending of kingdom hearts 3 (as you do) and remembered something

okay so, this scene

chirithy is talking about losing powers, specifically the power of waking, which sora brushes off until he's told he'll disappear,

only to be himself and keep going to save kairi despite the (multiple) warnings

he's truly selfless to a fault for his friends

but he considers himself worthless without them, and is willing to sacrifice his very being for their sake, and even seems okay with it if it means they'll be okay

he so dependent on his friends and the people around him he can't see himself in a good light and seems to truly believe what he says in those screenshots

this mindset can even be seen beginning in kingdom hearts 1, when riku takes the keyblade and sora falls to his hands and knees, despondent. only to then be abandoned by donald and goofy, the two constants in his journey

and when sora does get the keyblade back, it's after his speech on all the people he's met and how his friends are his power

it's super cheesy and i love it and in the context of the first game it's perfectly fine, but taking in the context of the rest of the series, this seems to be the beginning of his unhealthy dependency on his friends

anyways i love sora so much but i also hope he has a segment in kingdom hearts 4 where he's completely alone, even away from strelitzia, so we can explore this part of his character more.

watched the missing link beta's cutscenes and when remus appeared "omg hiiii <3"

i know nothing about him but there's just something there

i like to imagine that by the time of kh4, ventus and roxas are friends. at first they're probably awkward around each other, but then they become best buddies and make it everyones problem.

one scenario i have thought up is of them using the fact they're pretty much identical to troll people by pretending to be the other. but aqua and terra figure it out and instead of being annoyed, they team up with roxas to bully ven

love when characters have to have a domestication arc before you can even consider giving them a redemption arc

i fucking love this image

(i got permission from them dw)

close-up

i've also made kingdom hearts memes :)
