have i ever cried about how "daring to dance" is such a riku song? Bc its such a riku song

[whyarewecalledtheshipname]

you know symphony of sorcery? I want more of that. Just, sora, riku, and strings getting some time to shine. I miss it 🥺

How beautiful is it that riku just gets to have ballerina vibes, like, I love that a boy gets to be that. He gets to be strong in the “big strong man” way but it’s made so much sweeter by the fact that his true strength lies in how secure he is in his non-traditionally masculine traits.

If we take it as far as assuming he strove to be graceful yet buff yet beautiful, to impress sora, like? You see this shit? He didn’t try to impress Sora only by being buff or fast or better at swordfighting. The typical way guys are “supposed” to impress girls. Riku’s teen brain really went “let’s incorporate ‘feminine’ grace and beauty into everything we do” to impress sora and it really says SO much about his character that makes him infinitely more precious and interesting. It’s relatively such a small, singular detail but it’s so FASCINATING

Riku said let boys be pretty and he really set out to do it himself, my goodness
