the FtPverse Cast (ask)blog

[Navigation] [Characters] [mod blog] [ FtP main blog] A psuedo askblog for the main cast of rar's KHfic FtPverse. Updates rarely, but posts generally consist of random situations or answers to character prompts or sometimes commentary on the events of the fic. For the most part, this should all be taken in an "offset/not-exactly canon" context. Posts tagged "things that happen with the fic" are the most canon things on here. ((more info)) Have a quesion?

well it’s been literally two years, but remember that wedding?

we’ve finally gotten to that point in our timeline, haha!

anyway, nothing has really changed!! it was still super cool and I was so glad to go and the cake was amazing and weddings are still like the most beautiful thing ever and---

wh? 

.....oh!

well it uh. let’s just say a few things occurred to me about the whole Zack Situation and uh, it just seemed like a SUPER bad idea for Riku to know? 

or... for Aerith to know, really...

I just don’t want to make her sad

[askftpverse]

wait, Riku, do you even know about Shad being back?? I know Kairi and Namine and even Aerith were told, but, were you?

Yeah, they told me about ‘im

i mean…. not right away or anything, but Sora wanted help with research… and I’m not the kind of person to…. care

he hasn’t told anyone else that lives in Hollow Bastion yet, but, that’s his problem, not mine

[rarmaster]

“This is a little out of nowhere, but Riku… when’s your birthday?”

[rarmaster]

I’M TOTALLY NOT SORRY TO BE SPAMMING YOU BUT, HERE IS THE SPECIAL ANNIVERSARY CHAPTER AS WELL!!!! FT, RIKU’S BIRTHDAY AND A FRIKTON OF FAMILY FEELS

—> [ read here!!! ]   [ chapter commentary ]   [ liveblog tag ]

[askftpverse]

whaaaat Riku you had a birthday and a party and everything!!!!!! why didn’t you tell me!!!!!

oh!!! uhm, uh,,,,,

look, I didn’t want Vexen knowing, alright, so I didn’t tell you becasue I thought you might blab

THAT’S---

.......okay, fair, I probably would’ve blabbed

but why didn’t you, like, tell me five minutes before the party started!!!!! would that have been so hard!!!!!!!

o-oh....... sorry...... I didn’t think of that.....

welll..... whatever! happy birthday Riku!!

[askftpverse]

are you still gonna go by "shad"? seems like a really dumb name, especially since it's just a shortening of "sora's shadow" !

Nah, we’ve found out a new name for him!

“Shad” will probably stick around as a nickname for a while, though....

rar will have to shake it

exactly

it’s a good thing i’m used to it

it’s not a bad nickname

it’s not one I ever want to be known by permanently

it’s a little late for that

hmph

[askftpverse]

what's it like being back, eh Shad?

technically, I was never gone!!

but, you know.... it’s... okay

I... I wanted to go for a reason, though, and that still stands

I mean, Sora says we’ll work it out... and... It is nice being here with him....

----!! But! But the point still stands!!!

[askftpverse]

shad's back!!! shad's back!!!! whoooooooo!!!!!! :D :D :D

hey look, they missed me!

yeah, well, not everyone did!

oh lay off, Kairi

[askftpverse]

so riku how does it feel to have yr darkness do that crazy malfunction thing it does

unpleasant, obviously

i start getting really dizzy and last time i could hardly control my darkness. or stand. or…. think straight

can’t do anything about it, though, it’s all in the dynamic duo’s hands. At least Even’s more tolerable than Vexen is, at any rate

[askftpverse]

you guys haven't posted on here in forever!!! hey, since your Shadow's back, Sora, you mind telling us what's on your mind about him now?

oh, yeah, sure, I guess

funny how our last post was about him, too….

Anyway! I’ve already said this in-story, but, I’m pretty happy he’s back? Or, I can’t say I’m that upset, anyway. I’m certainly glad this means I didn’t actually kill him

and, y’know, I’m not exactly happy about what happened in the past

but I’m prepared to give him a clean slate. everyone deserves that, don’t they?

[rarmaster]

look i thought about writing a scene for this but i’m not sure if i could really fully put it into words

however

ftp riku finding out about mother 1 localization

Keep reading

[askftpverse]

HERE’S THIS FOR A LITTLE CONTEXT

I really was that excited, seriou--

wait rar why are you ninten

what are you talking about i’ve always been ninten

uh, I don’t think so

BECAUSE MOM 1 HYPE DUH

[askftpverse]

MOTHER 1 JUST GOT LOCALIZZEEEDDDDDD

wait seriously

OH MY GOD SERIOUSLY

what?

MOTHER 1 JUST GOT LOCALIZED THAT’S WHAT

OH MY GOD I’M SO??? I’m so happy holy shit this is like my favorite series

wait wasn’t that the not-quite-as-fun one?

who cares i’m totally getting it this is fantastic

[askftpverse]

Any reason why you don't want to tell anyone about your Shadow, Sora?

about, what, like, how he felt for me?

I dunno, it just doesn’t seem like information anyone would be willing to tell everyone who asked

not to mention no one would really understand. all anyone thinks about him is “evil, needed to die” and it’s a lot more complex than that? i’m still not convinced he really needed to, and--

actually, that’s a different tangent. the point is, i don’t see the point in telling everyone he loved me when all they’re gonna do is freak out and be disgusted by it

and, y’know, he asked me not to tell anyone...

I mean, yeah, I told Kairi, but, well, whatever. I needed to tell someone, and Kairi knows all of my other secrets. Besides, it’s not like he’s around to get mad at me for that!

[askftpverse]

What do you think of Even, Riku?

He’s.... something, alright.

And that’s.... actually all I can think of to say about him.

[askftpverse]

puking darkness? that's pretty gross!!

tell me about it....

is anyone even sure WHY it happened yet?

I think the running theory is “my body was trying to get rid of the darkness since it’s causing problems”

Oh yeah, and it most likely didn’t actually work. now i remember talking about this.

[askftpverse]

How did Even react when he found out about the Rebellion and everything?

he was pretty steamed, to say the least

Yeah, i’m pretty sure if Saix wasn’t dead, he would’ve killed him himself

he threatened killing Xemnas too, but no one really believed him

especially since he clammed up once Xehanort was mentioned!!

Also, I think he and Alpha got into an argument about something? I heard them yelling, but I couldn’t pinpoint what they were yelling about.

yeah, but be honest, everyone would get into an argument with Alpha, right?

heh, true!

[askftpverse]

You played any other earthbound games Riku?

actually, yeah, I just finished Mother 1--or Earthbound Zero

comparatively to Mother 3, I felt like it was rushing or dragging in a lot of places, but it’s also an old, like, 80s game? maybe I shouldn’t be too hard on it

the final battle was really satisfying, though. kinda made up for everything else it made me put up with

[rarmaster]

oH MY GOSH I NEARLY MISSED IT magik is at the end of her fic and idk if anyone remembers that bit on the askblog where joseph was literally rolling w/ happiness bc he got to see a wedding

but uh

said wedding has now been posted B))))

[askftpverse]

oh yeah... i don’t know if any of you remember the wedding i mentioned i got to go to, like, ages ago, but.....

well, here it is!!

so it was people we knew!

not who was getting married. you’ve never met them!

I mean, neither had I, technically, but that’s besides the point!!!

well, I guess I’m glad you had fun!

I did!!! It was soooo coool!!! Weddings are like, my new favorite thing!! pity that’s the only one I’ll get to go to, for like, the next.... forever....

[askftpverse]

...............what the fuck even is Time Saga?
