sometimes i go back and forth on whether soriku has been intentional since the start or near the start, but then I remember “I got it… You’re thinking about THAT GUY again. Aren’t you?” “Yeah, Sora’s a total zombie when that guy’s on his mind.” and I feel so rabid and insane. Like it’s right there in the second game
#fr congrats to sora and riku for being disney’s first gay characters in 2004#possibly earlier#cause I’m almost certain the reason we don’t see riku open the door in kh1 is bc Gay#bc we’d see his reaction to the paopu fruit drawing right next to the door#and him probably abandoning kairi to find sora#so you’d Know it’s not about her#his feelings aren’t for her but… sora#i feel like i make this same post every six months#but it’s bc it does make me so crazy !!! it’s just right fhere!!!!!

I technically have a fic that goes with this picture, but I don't think it'll be done in time, and I wanted to post something for pride month, so...
Have this humble offering of Vanpliku.
#kingdom hearts#fanart#my art#vanitas kh#riku replica kh#vanpliku#replivani#are there any other ship names for them?#Also can I just say#I really enjoy these two#and normally I do them as friends#but there's something nice about them being gay for each other too

So I just looked at Hikari English translation lyrics for the first time...
IT'S DEFINITELY FROM KH1 RIKU'S POV I'm going insane it's so him.
It shows how he is alone and that he got separated for Sora. He forgotten his destiny probably referring to his Kingdom Key going to Sora. Then he is referred to as light he awakens in the middle of the night.
Now the light is sometimes referred to him or Sora. Because to Riku, Sora is light.
He wishes he can tell him but he's scared and repressed his feelings. And he always wants to be together with Sora. Because with Sora who he views as light, he'll be fine when it's In the middle of the night when it's dark such as when he was going through a dark place in KH1
He's like turn everything off, don't do anything else but look at me. It gives KH1 Riku vibes so much.
He's still in his "I'm definitely not gay" phase and says he doesn't believe in us completely
But with Sora, he views as his Light
Riju wants to continue being with him and just want Sora to only pay attention to him.
And the thing about light, Riku is the light but to Riku, Sora is His Light.
They are each other lights.
Riku once said in the novels, Riku looked away from Sora because he was dazzling. For Riku he was too bright or dazzling.
And these are just some of the main stanzas I have thoughts on from it being about Riku
My thoughts on Chikai
#kingdom hearts#soriku#simple and clean#hikari#kh hikari#kh simple and clean#riku#kh riku#sora#kh sora#Riku is the light#but Sora is also His Light#Hikari is gayer than I remember#Riku kh1 is so stupid in an entertaining way#He gets jealous so easily and only want sora to have his attention#Is it gay to want your best friend to look only at you and nothing else?#Also how is this from anyone else's POV?#like it's definitely not Kairi#It's not Sora it's about Riku during KH1#it doesn't even have to be romantic but it's about him being jealous and how he feels towards Sora

girl help im thinking about Riku Kingdom Hearts
#Hes so :(#Had a dream I gave him a hug after calling him pretty last night and woke up like 'Im glad I did that i think he needed that' LMAO#hes so babygirl im.#his design is so tasty and hes such an interesting cgaracter to me. like yeah hes an antagonist on the first game#but his redemption arc isnt just 'sorry lol' he constantly strives to be better#and he accepts the darkness as a part of him while never letting it rule him#dont even get me STARTED on how queercoded his darkness is#dont get me wrong: darkness is NOT an analogy for being gay but because of Rikus lack of self acceptance HIS darkness was#AND HE IS SORAS LIGHT. HEAD IN HANDS#sora kingdom hearts#riku kingdom hearts#kh riku#kh#kingdom hearts#soriku#I WANT A RIKU FUNKO POP. THROWING CHAIRS#beverly says stuff

#not being a hater but#just having midnight thoughts#about sokai and how it’s been handled#as someone not steeped in the lore of kh much at all#yet at least#I’ve heard all the excuses#nomura’s a bad romance writer#they’re just queerbaiting#and there was a time when I’d say that was true#but now I’m not convinced#I mean saying nomura is a bad writer is just… such a bad faith take#the guy’s got one of the most intricate stories out there#he’s made it clear that everything he does is very intentional#so it makes me wonder if sokai has such little development for a reason?#I think we can all agree that the lack of dev for kairi sucks#but perhaps nomura doesn’t want us to root for her and sora as endgame?#I’d love to see kairi have a self discovery journey of her own without sora tbh#probably not the first person to say that but it does make sense#I went from thinking soriku could never happen#to thinking like wow holy shit this could actually be a thing#within a weekend#aided by the famous riku is gay vid ofc#usually I could care less about canonicity but#soriku endgame actually#and if I’m wrong well…#I’m already a clown so it can’t get more delulu than that#tragic clowning#soriku#kingdom hearts

Watching the Riku is gay video (finally) and I’m loving the commentary😂.
Go watch it now😤🫵.
#kingdom hearts#soriku#riku x sora#sora x riku#AND THE FACTS BEING PRESENTEDDDD#it’s so funny to hear someone actually voice similar thoughts instead of me just reading them lol#but also: I love learning some new info about the other games in general and new view points#which this person has given me :). especially info about 368 1/2 days and recoded#and I need to listen to the CoM section because I definitely need to know more. I literally cannot play that game lol#Riku is gay and why it matters is so good so far#AND THERES MORE VIDEOS TOO!! IM!! EXCITED!!!!!!!

maybe it's sanctuary coming up on shuffle but if sora & jill and riku & terence don't have cameo chit chats in kh4 I will wither and die
#'you've said this before' AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN#terence being Gay Knight is the logical follow up to esmeralda's lil riku pep talk OKAY#it is the LOGICAL and THEMATIC cameo for Riku letting Sora go to his fate#Jill repeating the @ Clive “you're worth saving too” tale is THE CROWBAR sora needs to the knees

you know. as much as i love rikus unyielding devotion to sora. part of me wonders how hes been, like, surviving in the year without him.
has he been doing anything else in his life besides looking for sora?
will riku need to have some sort of revelation in the future about his own importance and self-worth separate from sora, in a similiar vein to pearl from su?
bc like
a lot of pearls character arc feels... relevant. to riku. or at least, it could be.
idk like. im well aware sora and rikus relationship is leagues healthier than rose and pearls. and sora is a much better person than rose was. but i just.
i see a lot of pearl in riku at times
#kingdom hearts#riku#riku kh#kh riku#soriku#kh3#kh3 spoilers#steven universe#long post#image heavy post#kh meta#ali's kh meta#like i wouldnt be surprised if kh just played it all straight and never went deeper into the harm of being dedicated solely to one person#keeping with the ideals of true love and fairytales#but at the same time it seems like they were /trying/ to somewhat deconstruct sora in kh3#with his 'my friends are my power' thing failing after everyones lost and him losing confidence in himself as a result#so who knows#anyway we stan our gay autistic knights on this blog#(i stan pearl significantly less than riku but i still love her)

Some Sora practices!! I am so happy with these, its the first time I've ever drawn him
#kingdom hearts#kh sora#sora#winterlilyarts#kh2 sora#made a childhood dream come true#i never thought id be able to draw him#me and spikey hair do not have a good relationship#so i lost it#anyways next up is riku#i need to learn how to draw him#so i can draw them being gay#i watched the 6 hour riku is gay video and it changed my brain chemistry

Strelitzia being a gay kid who died/whose time in that world ended before she could summon the courage to confess her feelings and that being one of her greatest regrets then noticing Riku’s feelings for Sora and not wanting him to end up like her with the same regret raaaahhhh
#going crazy thinking abt potential future interactions#strelitzia being a gay kid who didn’t get that happy ending and riku being the gay kid who does#and setting that hopeful precedent#whatever whateve r !! I’m crazy#something about being outside the restraints of the disney worlds too#kingdom hearts#soriku

It’s funny how overwrought and overzealous shipping over time can really sour you on a ship you enjoyed.
#God I’ve said it before but I have soured SO much on Soriku it’s not even funny#No I don’t think people should be mocked for shipping it#(and I still think Riku is gay)#But gott in himmel some people need to chill the fuck out#And while I’ll probably always ship Narumitsu#And I appreciate that a fair few shippers also enjoy their relationships with other characters#I’ve started to feel more sorry for the people it just doesn’t hit for#Like more shit with them being friends or their canon rivalry maybe?#Like I’ve made it clear I am NOT above shipping#I won’t even try to pretend#But c’mon.

Riku and Sora are down so bad for each other
#Cricket chirping#I've been replaying the KH games (hence the sudden hyperfixation) and man#Sora and Riku are gay as hell#The fucking. Rainbow keyblade that starts as two halves and clicks together. With a heart on the top. And a paopu fruit keychain#The fact that the song Sora and Riku make together in DDD is Dearly Beloved#Sora dropping to his knees and crying when he realizes he found Riku vs. Sora awkwardly hugging Kairi when he finally rescues her#Riku literally becoming a being that eats dreams in order to protect Sora while he's in that cursed sleep#Wow DDD specifically is really gay huh#Anywho. Soriku

"Kingdom Hearts is so complicated" "Nomura made it up as he went along" "KH makes no sense" Have you considered that Riku is 15 and autistic and gay bc if you do I think itll change things
#domt get me wrong a lot of kh is fucking ridiculous and some of it is way too complex but like#bare bones? Rikus motivations are so real to me like Riku is such a realised character#Giving him hugs#If sora at any point in the game was like “Riku youre my best friend and i value you” nothing wouldve ever happened /hj#Obviously overhearing the dock convo with Kairi definitely triggered a fight or flight response in him#and him being like “Winner gets to get with Kairi 😼” and then as soon as the race is over being like “lol it was just a joke bro haha”#And him trying so hard to be a cool guy (which works tbf bc sora idolises him but is still evident)#Him tossing Sora a paopu and sayin “c'mon. you know you want to try it.” eithout ever saying Kairi to test the waterz#his main priority after opening the door to darkness being making sure Sora comes with him and feeling betrayed when he doesnt#and then in traverse town running when Sora has the chance to abandon him for his new friends#and then maleficent is like Lol he replaced u <3 and riku is gay and autistic and 15 about it#I care so deeply about kh1 riku. Hes just a little guy and he just needed a hug#apollo says stuff#UGHHHH#Its feeling so so sad about Riku Kingdom hearts hours#riku kingdom hearts#kingdom hearts#kh riku#soriku#beverly says stuff
