I drew Yozora Riku and Sora being silly together

This takes place in the Quadratum and I gave them new clothes.

I made three versions, one with normal background, one faded, and one has more lighting and colors.

The Truth - KH Fanfic where Kairi & Riku talk

Implied Kailette and Soriku

Excerpt:

Riku just sighed as he stared at his fist that was curled up.

“I know. I've known for awhile.” Kairi only smiled to herself, humming.

“What?” Riku staggered, “Who… Who told you? I thought Mickey said he wouldn't tell—”

Kairi laughed and shook her head, “No one, you're quite obvious. I mean everyone can tell you're in love with him.”

Summary:

The Truth was always hidden, from Sora— his best friend— and especially Kairi

He couldn't face them or tell them what actually happened that day or why it happened

A big part of everything was his complicated feelings of that time, and they must remain a secret forever.

However, finally tired of hiding his reasons and truths, Riku tells Kairi a long with an apology

Soriku Repliku art based on that Stage Play

The stageplay has so many things that I really love. It had them dancing and doing more things than in the game which made me want to draw moments based off it.

Anyways I drew that one part where they were dance fighting and Repliku takes Sora and basically swings him around.

Edit: I forgot to share the second version

190K words and almost a year later my fic, Brought Back, is officially complete!

Hurt/Comfort, SoRiku romance, and lots of them being besties with Kairi. Also action, mystery, fluff, and a lot of depression allegories.

Obsessively canon-compliant (aside from KH4 trailer) and most main characters turn up along the way. Set post ReMind and Melody of Memory. Angst with a happy ending.

I'm actually seriously proud of how this turned out 🥹 and amazed I made it to the end.

Chapter 1 is a short Prologue: As the Master of Masters observes Sora furiously searching for him, he senses more Keyblade Wielders appearing in Quadratum.

Full prologue and summary below

Summary:

After waking up in a strange city, Sora has wandered its streets alone for months searching for a way home, whilst tormented by Heartless and stalked by a stranger in a black coat. When he is gravely wounded, Riku and Kairi arrive just in time to get him to safety.

However, he has returned with more than just physical wounds. With his body, heart, and spirit all severely damaged, and memories of Rage still haunting him, the road to recovery will be long and painful. Could there be more than trauma to these dark feelings Sora has brought back with him?

His many friends want to be there to help him through it though, even in the times he doesn't want them to be, and doesn't think he deserves it. Above all else, Riku and Kairi will always be at his side, even while one must desperately try to hold back his feelings.

Prologue:

He yawned widely and glanced up, checking the moon's position in the sky. It seemed a long time since the sun had set but, judging by how little the pale circle had moved, it must still be several hours until midnight.

Every now and then the boy's hoarse voice floated up through the night air to where he sat on the edge of a skyscraper roof, as he continued to shout for the man to come out and fight. It had been a nice change of pace, seeing Sora consumed with anger and openly trying to hunt him down. But after several days of it, the novelty was wearing off. 

He was bored. If losing that silly charm of his hadn't been enough to push Sora over the edge then maybe it was time to give him another nudge... Such an interesting challenge this was, keeping the boy balanced on the edge of this dark abyss until just the right moment.

Push too soon, and he would be lost. Wait too long, and the chance might be missed. But if he got his timing just right... Sora would fall, and let something else take flight. 

And it would fly right into the cage he had set for it.

His head snapped to the side as he sensed something change, something abruptly alter the energy of this world. Someone else was here.

He stepped through the dark flames of the corridor he had summoned and emerged atop the roof of a different soaring skyscraper. A red light pulsed beneath the platform he stood on, and from the matching tower on the other side of the building. It was the ideal place to spot his intruders from, and he didn't have to look far.

There they were.

Four teenagers, standing in the centre of the semicircular plaza far below. What a convenient location for them to have chosen. A blue sphere surrounded by diamonds hovered in the air behind them, pulsing faintly. It disappeared as a blonde-haired boy pointed a weapon at it. That weapon though, a Keyblade? 

A roar of anger rose in his throat but he forced it back down. They must be here for Sora.

How dare they interfere! After months and months of careful planning and work, tormenting Sora with Heartless, sleepless nights, and murderous visions, these four were going to waltz in here and try to stop him? Try to throw away all those decades- centuries of planning.

They could never defeat him of course, but killing more Keyblade wielders unnecessarily was something he would prefer to avoid, and if Sora glimpsed them and regained his hope... It would all be for nothing, and he would lose his ideal vessel for the 13th.

Or maybe... His lip curled into a sneer as an idea occurred to him. Maybe this was that final nudge Sora needed.

The dark flames engulfed him once more and he returned to his previous observation point. He called down to the boy running through the streets below.

"Hello Sora, why don't you come up here and join me?"

Doodles dump

Last possible drawings related to a lost comic pages panels i had imprints to work back from, the comic basically was a kh ddd story but what if Riku got turned into a dream eater for part of the journey, and the story is getting told post the ddd events to the point of Sora and Riku were already getting into the relationship but going over the story just to be sure.

(Dialougue wasnt that important but i think you can get the jist of what happened)

I figure some of the art is nice enough to drop regardless so here it is

Panel 6 is my fav, not gonna lie

Maybe I'm just looking way too deep into this, but I think the reason that BBS uses a command system instead of letting you freely use skills and magic because Masterhood requires you to discipline yourself and do things 'by the book'

And that's why in both BBS and DDD a command system is used, because the primary goals is to become a Master. You want to do things 'correctly' so that you can prove that you really understand how a Keyblade works.

(and also, funnily enough, the ones who seem to have the most freedom in this rigid system is Ven and Sora, who only want to be Masters by association of their friends)

And then in KH3, even though Sora was technically trying to be a Keyblade Master alongside Riku, he goes back to the normal action commands menu, because Sora never truly cared for being a master. But.... even then...

The game lets you play as Riku and Aqua, who have become Keyblade Masters, and the combat system doesn't change (and don't you dare stop me here and say, 'Andrew that's because it would be silly to change a combat system for two briefly playable characters' BECAUSE THAT'S NOT THE POINT). They've grown from the games where they achieved Masterhood and they realized the limitations of their teachers and of Mastery itself.

Aqua realized how fragile the balance truly is and Riku, time and time again, learned that doing things 'by the book' entails completely denying the darkness. Both of their struggles stem from darkness - Aqua rejecting it and Riku being unable to reject it. And they learn that the books were wrong: darkness can't be eliminated. They realize how their teachers have failed them, to an extent, and don't hold themselves to their exact teachings.

But, this is only a small example of breaking the toxic cycle their Masters taught them and RIKU IS STILL THE PRIMARY ONE TO LEAD THE CHANGE TO TRULY ACCEPTING BOTH LIGHT AND DARK (ROAD TO DAWN), AND OF COURSE, RIKU ONLY FINDS THE LIGHT BECAUSE OF SORA AND SORA ALSO HAS DARKNESS HE NEEDS TO ACCEPT, SO THEY'RE BOTH THE ONES TO LEAD THE CHANGE, SO THE COMMAND SYSTEM ACTUALLY PROVES SORIKU ENDGAME ANDliterary analysis is my special interest
