[[RP blog for Ventus from Kingdom Hearts - non-canon compliant]] Mun 18+

[heartlightheartbright]

Mobile sticky!

RP blog for Ventus from Kingdom Hearts! Post KH3 with a key difference; nobody poofs (except Xehanort). Primarily focusing on Ventus approximately 6 years post final battle. Check the About for a little more detail!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

⭐ Please add me if you’d like to RP! I promise if I’ve already added you, I’m interested in RPing.

⭐ 18+ muns only please. Muses under this are fine, but only for platonic interactions. Any fandom is welcome; it’s a big universe, after all!

⭐ IC =/= OOC. If there’s ever a specific way you were hoping our characters would interact, let’s talk it out! 

⭐ Relationships develop when they develop. If you’re interested in a particular pairing, let’s see how we write together first! 

⭐ I do my best to understand most of the canon, but please do not be discouraged if you’re interested in UX characters interacting and I’m not familiar with those events. I’ve been in the fandom since 2002 things have Happened and I was Not Prepared, haha.

⭐ Discord RP is always fine by my book, if you have a preference to write on there. c: Just let me know.

⭐ Kingdom Hearts as a series canonically holds a lot of dark themes; attempted murder, actual murder, casual mentions of suicide and self-harm, just to name a few. Please let me know if we ever stray into territory you aren’t comfortable with; this is your pretendy fun time, so it should be enjoyable for you!

WAIT YOUR THEBIRDSANDBEES????

oh no my reputation precedes me

[heartlightheartbright]

(okie dokie! I have a lot of replies to get to, and this is a gentle forewarning that I am going to be slowly plodding through them and trying to respond to everything. I'll be ensuring I note on each and every one that I understand completely if you're not interested in continuing things; I am late! You're not obligated to still be interested, promise.

That said I would also very much like to start some new things as well, so- like or drop me a line if you would enjoy some newer threads, and feel free to let me know if you'd actually prefer to drop old stuff! )

[heartlightheartbright]

Maybe yours are nicer but I think it's just that the Dream Eaters I meet are frustrated with me, is all. They never seem to intend harm even when they look eerie. Although, the same red glow happened when I dreamed of Vanitas once.

"Do you know why they're frustrated at you? There's gotta be a reason for it, right?"

"I mean... Dream Eaters are pretty good at finding out things we might not want them to. Maybe they're mad that you're not being true to yourself."

[heartlightheartbright]

may I please have a link to your personal?

gentle forewarning that my personals are where I allow myself to have all my toxic ships, talk about weird courting rituals, get angry at old people who slap their generational trauma on children, and swear.

so long as that's not too repellent then it's @lockandkeyblade but please do not come for me if you find there's things on there you don't like

If there was one undeniable truth that even Sora could recognize about himself and Ventus, it was their strikingly similar glares—piercing and intense, they often seemed to collide like the contrasting forces of Light and Darkness that defined their very existence. Yet, even amid their frequent clashes, both boys sometimes were weary of the ongoing bumpy partnership. During these rare moments of respite, they discovered common ground, and Valentine's Day stood out as one of those unique occasions. With a playful glint in his eyes, Sora lobbed a heart-shaped chocolate at Ventus, the mischievous smirk on his face betraying the lighthearted nature of his challenge. "Here," he quipped, his voice dripping with sarcasm, "Have a heart." The sweet gesture, filled with Sora's trademark humor, perfectly blended camaraderie and jest.

Maybe it was unreasonable that he hadn't left yet, considering. But amidst the glares and general dichotomy of their beliefs, there was still something to be found, there. A bond that couldn't be broken- or so Ventus believed. Hoped.

Days like today were important reminders of that bond. That regardless of what Sora is, regardless of who he might become... he's still Sora. Playful, dorky Sora.

His second chance.

"Mm... that's not quite right." Sorry, little chocolate, but he's going to have to play at being Xehanort, for a moment. There's a sharp crack, between his fingers, before Sora will find half of that chocolate being tossed right back.

"Pretty sure my Heart looks more like this." Although... if it was more accurate...

He wouldn't have the other half, either. But Vanitas isn't here, and he likes chocolate.

So he'll have to forsake any accuracy in favour of relishing the way it melts on his tongue, instead.

[heartlightheartbright]

For some reason, I get dreams about Dream Eaters once in a while. They never seem to have any definitive shape but they always give off friendly vibes until I see their eyes. They have the unsettling red eyes of Nightmares despite not being nightmarish.

"Y'know, I've had dreams about Dream Eaters too! Though, I guess mine were a little nicer than yours?"

"Sora introduced me to them. They were pretty excited about it. It's weird, but I always felt like... I'd met them before?"

[heartlightheartbright]

Okay so it's been a hot minute.

I'm terribly sorry for the long, long silence on my end! I am going to continue being silent for a few more weeks before I'll be ready to crawl back into things-- though I promise, I am doing much better!

When I get back I'll be prioritizing getting replies out to ongoing things first and foremost; I will absolutely not take it personally if you don't want to continue them!

And hey, if we're friendly mutuals and you want to know how things have been on my end, send me a PM and I'll shoot you my personal/discord.

[heartlightheartbright]

Hey! Thanks for your patience while I'm being a bit slow! I'll be trying to catch up a bit in the next few days and tossing up offers to get some more starters on the way, too. So many mutuals, so little time!

In the meantime, for those of you who'd prefer context on what's going on, there's a read more for that. If you'd prefer just to stick with rp and not worry, hey, no worries! Just don't click.

Uh, tw: explosions. And attempted murder, I guess.

Someone asked me why I got back into rp and I responded "well the building I was in got blown up". So anyway, the joke was that it wasn't a joke.

It just didn't get blown up as much as was perhaps initially intended. I also wasn't part of the group of people the perp was trying to kill- he just...didn't necessarily care that a bunch of innocents were there.

I was unfortunately pretty close to the blast when it went off. I'm physically fine, as is everyone else who was there. No one was seriously injured. It's just meant things have been messy thanks to...being right there, lol. Add the whole #trauma thing to the whole deal and I've admittedly had some stuff to deal with.

The situation at the moment gets quiet for a few weeks and then picks back up, so I can't even really say when it'll be over. Knowing the legal system, maybe I'll be lucky enough to see the end of it in like... two years.

So, please bear with me. Some days are better than others. There's a whole lot more good days than bad, but I'm still taking life a day at a time right now. This blog is genuinely a place I intend to keep fun and light-hearted, but if I go quiet for a few days, this is undoubtedly part of the reason why.

[heartlightheartbright]

Vanitas hops down from the wall he was sitting on, down in front of Ventus with a glare on his face.

"Why didn't you just kill me? Why bring me back?"

@not-someones-shadow

"What kind of question is that? I didn't want to kill you."

@not-someones-shadow

[not-someones-shadow]

He stared in slight disbelief for a moment. "So why didn't you just leave me? By all means, I'm trouble for you and your friends. Why run the risk?"

[heartlightheartbright]

"So you get to choose to be something, and I can't?" His expression sours further as he crosses his arms.

"I chose what I wanted to be- and don't say Light. That wasn't my choice. What I am is the sort of person who'd help you anyway. That's all."

[dichotomouskey]

Wear my hunger & heart on my sleeve, & that's why the ones I love always leave. The devil, you know, he comes, and he goes; I'm selfish and vapid; I hide in my prose.

if you played someone not from kingdom hearts who would you play?

Uhhhh-

-Hiccup -Danny Fenton (probably canon divergence tho cause Season 3 doesn't exist you can't convince me it does) -BotW/TotK Link -Jak or Daxter (probably Daxter) -Chara Dreemurr but ngl probably not on tumblr lol. -G'raha Tia or Emet Selch -My WoL who may or may not have been named Ventus as a joke.

@svnbled

"The trauma made you kind."

"Fuck that. I am kind because I cannot allow anyone to go through what I did. I am soft because I chose to be. Trauma made me scared, angry, and vulnerable."

"I made myself kind."

[zalgladiate]

"... Ven..." he doesn't know what else to do, let alone anything to say. but he reaches out tentatively, taking a soft hold of one of the younger's hands in his own calloused and scarred one. he offers a smile, warm and bright but oh so tired. "I'm proud of you."

[heartlightheartbright]

Ventus swallows, squeezing that hand tightly. A little affirmation against all the things he worries about- that he's just like this because he's Light, he's just like this because he was forced to be-

It's nice. It's really nice to hear that someone believes him when he says he chose this. That despite everything, he looked at his past and chose what he'd become going forward.

"...Thanks, Lex."

[heartlightheartbright]

@siblingsoflight

"All you can do is learn good to balance out the bad. Then, if you wake up in a sweat, you have something to set against the dream."

[siblingsoflight]

"Good to balance out the bad huh?"

Sora leaned against the wall behind him in thought.

"D...do you think that could work with Vanitas?"

[heartlightheartbright]

"...It'd be nice if it would, huh?"

"I dunno, Sora. He's- complicated. And he made his choice." He huffs, just shy of a laugh. Not that anything's funny. "I didn't really get to make a lot of those, you know? If he's made up his mind... I don't want to take his choice from him."

[heartlightheartbright]

If you're fond of spicy stuff, adding a little bit of black pepper to hot cocoa mix is a good pairing of flavors.

"I gotta try that. Thanks for the advice!" Chilli chocolate exists- could he use that to make hot chocolate?

Oh, his world has just been expanded.

@heartlightheartbright

Axel put his hands behind his head. "Why are you getting all poetic and emotional all of a sudden? Did you listen to one of the bosses rants again? You know how he gets."

[heartlightheartbright]

"What? No." What boss? "I guess I just got a little caught up in my own head."

He's not that emotional... is he?
