In one of your recent reblogs you said that Dark Riku is a Willful Darkness.

Could you explain what you mean by that, please?

Oh! Specifically the one in San Fran; the one we see at the keyblade graveyard is a different riku as Dark Repliku

They have different personalities and responses when told they’re not the real Riku.

At first glance, you might even think it’s Data Riku (as the Darkubes’ design is almost one-to-one with Bug Blox from ReCoded, not to mention the dark coat). And his discussion with Maleficent would also make sense as Repliku has never met Maleficent.

The problem comes from Pete’s response, seeming to not have recognized him. When, Pete was kinda a big bad guy in ReCoded. And then Maleficent’s words:

“But I could not have told you from when”

That’s emphasized! She knows this ‘Riku’ from a different point in time. And how they speak to one another, it’s as if ‘Dark Riku’ is teasing about her snooping, like he’s seen it before. Like how she was in KHUX.

And we know the final Willful Darkness is

1) still missing (7 in the foretellers, 4 trapped in the datascape, 1 as Vanitas/still in Ventus. There were 13)

2) as one of the Darknesses, can make themselves to appear however they wish to. Even people.

3) it’s probably looking for a way to free it’s data-imprisoned comrades. Why wouldn’t it be looking into how Data works, and using a form that might grant it access to this data

If it’s the remaining willful darkness in disguise? Idk seems the most plausible to me

(image descriptions: a watercolor bookmark featuring Data-Sora and Data-Riku rimmed in red light. One photo has Data-Sora on the bottom while the other has Data-Riku. The background is styled after Bug Blox. End description.)

This month’s bookmark is for re:coded, so here’s the data boys! I had a lot of fun with figuring out the background.

im so sleep deprived. anyways uhhhhhh i hear arcane odyssey is good but i've heard people compare it to blox fruits. i think blox fruits is mid fruits so i wanna hear people's thoughts on it before i invest time into it lmk what y'all think (this qualifies as a confession right) -☁️❌

never played arcane Odyssey, but I was the one who kept spam liking your posts and I might’ve had my ask deleted. There’s a bug that doesn’t let me comment or sometimes DM so I have to let you know DID THE MICROPHONE BUTTON JUST SAY ASS JNSTEAD OF ASK

Day two of @khoc-week is here. So... the New World? Well... how many worlds will Ciel go through over the course of a time crunching and worldline spanning adventure?

Dwarf Woodlands: Ciel is sent to the world for his Mark of Mastery exam. Well, he would be fifteen by the time he finishes it. When the Dwarfs try to block Ciel, he just moves past them. "Hey, the Heartless were in the fracking mines," he wrote down in his report, careful to not use any strong language in the event his mom were to read his report. (Not that she'd have an issue with Ciel swearing like an actual teenager in the first place.) He still has to keep Snow White's events stick to the canon, though. (He already broke a canon event when he saved Strelitizia, broke another one when he began dating her before the Exam, and will break the Canon Events of their deaths with Kupo Coins and Lifeboat Sharing, since Ciel will be present in the KH3 events. So will his party.)

Game Central Station: Ciel goes in there to deal with the Bug Blox situation, only to geek out over the fact that he meets various video game characters, including Sonic the Hedgehog. He also learns that he's not the only person named Ciel, as he encounters a certain doctor with his name. Careful, Ciel! That doctor is packing heat!

Well, on to the first world.

Wonderland: Ciel visits Wonderland as his first world. He's SO GONNA smack the tyrannical Queen of Hearts for her shenanigans while holding off the Cards while Alice runs for her life.

Quadratum: Ciel visits the realm of fiction by acquiring the power to visit other worldlines. As a result of the realistic detailing, the pupils of Ciel's eyes are more cat-like in contrast to his native reality. Older? Yes. Any different? No, other than having the baggage of surviving two Keyblade Wars and having a near-death experience.

As as storyteller, I find it interesting how the gameplay of Re:coded connects with its story. I've already outlined how one particular part teaches you about reliance. This isn't an isolated incident, as you'll find here. The end of the game does it again, in the form of its card system. If you've seen the cutscene version of the game, which I am assuming you have, you know about Data-Roxas and what he tells Data-Sora. About how everything is an illusion, about the cards, and how Data-Sora will forget everyone he meets. What the cutscenes don't show you, is how the card system works and how the choices you make effect the outcome of the story in each room. In effect, what Data-Roxas tells Data-Sora, you get to experience, if you chose to. For instance in Destiny Islands, you don't just "talk" to everyone as the cutscenes show, you interact with them. You can chose to help them with the Blox that are around, or not. If you don't, however, Tidus gets captured by Blox, and Data-Sora has to rescue him. At the end Data-Sora shows remorse for his actions, realizing everything could have gone better if he'd helped. Of course afterwords he "forgets" but presumably he would still feel it. It is in this way that the game makes you deal with the uncomfortable. By taking Data-Roxas at his word, you get to experience the whole idea he promotes first hand. While the other worlds aren't this dramatic, it still hits home an idea that I am still trying to unpack. All I knew is at the time, it all bugged me. It made me uncomfortable. Perhaps it is the idea that we all forget things, but not always how they feel. The idea is that we're still effected by things that have happened in the past, that we can't remember. Whether this is true or not, depends on who you ask. I think also, in the case of this story, it hits home the idea that Sora has forgotten something important. The story goes out of its way to show, not just tell, what it is talking about. It makes Data-Sora feel what it is like to forget something important, in order to teach him to face that hurt. Just like Sora who will have to face that same hurt. Eventually Data-Sora learns what hurt is, and how to face it, and he gains the final card. There of course we meet Data-Naminé, who tells Data-Sora and Mickey the truth. Unlike the cutscene version, Data-Sora hits home what he's learned throughout the game by saying this to Data-Naminé: "I'm ready to accept them [the memories] no matter how painful they are." Perhaps it is a bit on the nose, but I think it is important. Data-Sora clearly shows he's willing to accept the hurt that is inside Sora's heart. And he also shows that he knows that shared hurt will also make him stronger and allow him connect more deeply with others. It's this view that the game hits home over and over. Unlike other KH games, it seems to have a message in mind, and then communicates it. I find that interesting. The storyteller felt it was important that we, the audience, knew this story first, before KH3D or KH3. Is it perhaps the lens to which view the rest? I'll leave this at that, with one final note, that I feel I need to mention. The cutscene version of the story includes a couple final lines that is not in the game, they are as thus: "Sora, when Naminé's words are passed on to you, when the day comes that you learn of this great unknown and mysterious adventure, it's important you that you understand, that whatever you feel in your heart, that's what "he" felt in his." I still don't know exactly how to read these lines, especially when they are not included in the original game. Is there a connection between Data-Sora and Sora? I mention this for completeness. If you have thoughts, share them! And with that, my overview of the game of Re:coded is complete. However, there is more to cover, some of which will get mentioned in the rest of the posts in this series.

I will tried it!

Heh.... And I scrolled more down, I didn't find it-

[invidiatechdemo]

I really do need to write down some of the specific weird 'writing a re:coded sequel version of remind but writing it like it's the novelization of a version that's a game with baffling mechanics related to power scaling/difficulty' situation I have stuck in my damn brain. The thing is the thing requires outlining + specifically outlining vis a vis : worlds visited order and the locations of Specific Plot Beats, and as I think i've mentioned here before writing is my nemesis and makes me ill.

For a super basic plot synopsis without spoilers for some of the specifics the concept was basically uh. (this is actively split up into parts because as it turns out i have a lot to say).

Initial section of story is post3 but pre the timescale of ReMind and MoM, and addresses that the journal still exists and addresses a thing that a lot of fics that remembers them don't (that textually, it's not just data-sora who forgot those events but likely has them etched in heart, the entire thing in many nomura interviews is that Data-Riku forgets in a similar way once the message abt Xion + Wayfinder is conveyed. bottom text.). It specifically actually uses them in a 'hey did you notice/feel anything weird when Sora (irl) disappeared' questioning by Riku and Mickey, and this planting the seed of. Upcoming things, because those bonds are /still/ etched and Data-Riku and Data-Sora would still have the feeling of being friends w/ Mickey and stuff.

ReMind starts with 3 Riku starting the damn boss rush but after a certain point when the computer is unattended, Data-Riku and Sora getting involved, with reasonings for that being those bonds to Mickey and Donald and Goofy still echoing, and a Castle Oblivion style 'I had a feeling that maybe if we came here, we could help' situation.

Hey don't worry that I'm going to keep alluding to KH2 and RE:COM in this metaphor, ok? :)

In Cid's words, the Data True Org stuff's composition is as follows: "This computer, the one in Twilight Town, and the one in the castle are all connected to the same network. They sent me all of their data and I merged it with the stuff I already had".

The castle in this statement is likely Radiant Garden. Later story stuff would actually dig deeper into /where specifically/ all the data is from in terms of where the castle and twilight town got their info, because if you take the Data Greetings serious, Scala Ad Caelum is just. In there, huh.

Data-Riku and/or Data-Sora enter one of the boss arenas, and start fighting. This is a terrible decision. For some. Later things. This being Young Xehanort's boss arena /specifically/.

The overlap of Jiminy's Journal Info (which /already/ has been shown to be able to reveal cutscenes/events that Sora was not there for as a weird world-memory thing (Riku interacting with AnsemSOD after island's fall, Riku at the clock tower in Neverland with Kairi, etc) and the info collected from Cid's vast repository of data results in something /extremely/ bad happening that initially just looks like generalized errors but quickly devolves into Bug Blox, and DS and DR being separated on two different levels.

It's at this point IRL Riku gets back. Bottom text.

Riku basically acting as mission control/the framing device from this point, with other characters coming in as things get worse and worse.

Hey remember the funny messages Data-Riku sent to Mickey. Riku does start getting those, but all they ever say is 'GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT' or 'LEAVE'. This is fine.

As a note, whoever they were fighting in the boss arena has frozen in a single place from the moment that the crashes/errors/bugs started occurring, with the boss arena visually being in the 'hub area' for what this game would be, with the boss arena basically crashed down and half submerged in the weird circuit bg and other miscellaneous debris from various worlds. Visually the hubworld riffing off End Of The World, with it becoming less luttered/chaotic at certain story beats/world completions.

Data-Riku landing in said hub world, with a framing device being Riku and Cid basically gmod prop spawning in a gummiphone so they can see info/data, since the camera is focused on Data-Sora by default. Comedy routine of Data-Riku selfie with a fucking damn frozen data greeting True Organization member. Cutscene dialogue where Riku and Cid talk about what the hell could have happened.

… Oh hey. Where did the player-controlled KH3! Sora go in all of this mess, since Riku was using that initially to interact with the garden of assemblage computer stuff. Oh well, probably got lost in the initial errors. It's fine. Surely.

Meanwhile Data-Sora is doing basic plot progression stuff in Data versions of some of the Disney Worlds, eventually meeting up with Data-Riku in the hub area. In my gamer-brain where I'm treating this as a game with mechanics, hub world meetup point would explain some of the initial base mechanics for people not accustomed to coded, and level selection. The gummi-phone mechanics now being used as a way to detect certain types of errors/bugs/reveal them, as well as for sections of game that are essentially Somniums. Info split between puzzle gameplay tutorials being explained via Data-Riku, and combat-related tutorials explained via Data-Sora, which is why they're split up initially so it's not a bunch of tutorials all at once.

There is a third game mechanic, but we haven't reached it yet. Smile.

Game tutorials and cutscenes slowly revealing something Very Specific about the game-scaling: Data-Riku and Data-Sora... were /not/ ready for this; the two of them are based on the Riku and Sora of /multiple games ago/, they can fight blox and stuff fine, but even the initiating cutscene implies they would have lost /horribly/ if the fight had gone on uninterrupted, and it unclear if if they would have uh. lived. Unlike the kh3 data sora, there's an issue.

Riku wanted them to leave/quit and let him just handle it, Data-Sora and Data-Riku point out that the way Riku was interacting with that data world is gone.

This conversation happens in the Hub World, and specifically mentions how Data-Riku can make portals to and out of the datascape/into other datascapes This is established early on as a thing Data-Riku still can theoretically do, despite the weird errors/glitches; outside of attacking them, whatever is going on with the system cannot intervene with Data-Riku or Data-Sora's programming, very likely because they have hearts alongside them being outside context problems.

Speaking of: yeah, the Bug Blox unlike in the previous game feel /really/ targeted, with lots of instances of stuff showing up specifically to impede progress.

But yeah, instances of true organization difficulty-wise veer into superboss territory, but in many cases they basically stick to their arenas. (some of which have basically collided into the various data worlds, puncturing through them like paper with large empty spaces and indestructible blox leading out to them. It's quite nasty, and there's this weird mixture of standard bug blox textures and the weird gummi-meaty world of chaos textures. This only gets more and more severe in the Radiant Garden and Destiny Islands sections.)

The bosses in question tend to have idle animations if left alone, typically sitting at the edge of a platform and looking out, either out into an endless abyss if one of the ones that hasn't crashed into a data worlds, or actually doing something a little bit more invested, like throwing stuff off their platforms, or straying slightly outside their arena to do something. This turns off immediately when Data-Sora or Riku are in range.

After one or two worlds are done, pretty early into the game but still with some 'game time'/plot stuff... hey so remember that super-duper frozen in place Young Xehanort? The one in the hub world and you likely have hit the 'interact' button on multiple times and probably gotten some dialogue with Data-Riku, Data-Sora, and Riku being a little bit creeped out/upset that there's just like. A dude. Yeah, that guy is gone now. It's completely unclear where he went. "Hey, Riku what do you think-" Data Riku is missing.

This is where the text limit cuts me off so. Mean cliffhanger.

[caelcstis]

had my interview today, and then it was pouring and storming afterwards so rather than trying to fight traffic, my friend and i took coverage in a pet store (got my mom a fish too shut up) and then went to wawa for food after it finally settled bc i never visited one and she was deeply offended lmao. we thEN stopped by work on the way home bc she wanted to get puppy ice cream for the dogs and she bought me some brownies bc i was having cravings. so it was a very fulfilling day for a day off lmao. i am v tired, may just make icons and play around on blox. you can bug me on disc tho if u wanna talk or write.

I found a glitch/bug in blox fruits if you have a devil fruit and time your jumps on water you don’t take damage I used this to get from middle town to jungle island

[firestorm09890]

I’m not usually one to complain about what might’ve been but I do Not understand why Dark Riku utilized Heartless made of data with identical patterns to the bug blox from Coded, and then talked about recreating a heart from data, and then he wasn’t a corrupted Data Riku. Like that just feels like a missed opportunity tbh. And if it was supposed to be a red herring it’s a really lame one
