Kingdom Hearts: Unreality Interconnected ā a 21+, semi-closed Kingdom Hearts RP ā is looking for Cloud!
Our story picks up after KH3/Re:Mind, in a universe where reality itself is cracking. Worlds collapse into darkness, memories shift, and nothing is quite what it seems.
We already have these taken characters, and weād love to have Cloud join the story.
What we offer:
Lore-rich worldbuilding (with maps and custom art!)
DnD-style real-time RP events (optional, with rewards)
A chill, close-knit 21+ server
Open ship policy and strong mod support for player safety
An incredibly self-indulgent au that I would like to see someone else write:
au where Leon goes with Sora instead of Donald and GoofyĀ
yeah thatās just an au I love a lot and I want to see something of (Iām too lazy to do it myself though..) but the realĀ self indulgence is below the cut!
Alright, hereās the real juicy stuff. Iāve been referring to it as the I love my son au for hopefully obvious reasons
Because its me, obviously, I want Ienzo to travel with them. Letās say he escaped Xemnas and has been living in Traverse Town for pretty much his entire life, probably as a street rat. Does he know Leon? Maybe. Maybe Leon found him in Radiant Garden and took him in, or maybe they only know each other in passing. Point is, heās a really powerful magic user and easily fills Donaldās role as the magician. (Something I think could be interesting is if Ienzo doesnāt have his heart. He escaped Xemnas, sure, but heās still a Nobody, even if he doesnāt know the term for it. Cue some confusion from Sora and Leon over why Ienzo is like this, why heartless donāt chase him, what he means byĀ āI donāt have a heartā etc. And hey! It could give Sora some insight into the Org that he wouldnāt have otherwise... just a thought.)
So, why would Ienzo, Nobody or not, go with Leon and Sora? I mean, obviously Leon is going because maāam that is a CHILD, why are you giving him a SWORD- but Ienzo? He just wants his family back. Or, at the very least, find out what happened to them and why.Ā
Pretty much everything is the same in kh1 except 1) Leon helps find the puppies (and actively derails the adventure to do so) 2) Leon gives as much emotional support as he can and 3) the trio isnāt split up by choice. (when they ARE however... the drama. Ienzo, in his childhood home that he destroyed with hints of what could have happened to his family up against worried dad!Leon who knows Sora is out there with only a wooden sword and Sora being terrified on his own with no way to heal himself and no backup and he wants his dad, dammit!) I also think it would be funny if Ienzo got an admirer in the form of Demyx, who has been following them around. He was supposed to report what they were doing to the Superior but he got... distracted.
I would think, since Zexion isnāt in the Organization, Saix wouldnāt send Axel to Oblivion, since the whole point was getting rid of VI and everyone else was an afterthought. However, with Ienzo being a rather valuable asset even when he was a baby, I would like to think that no one is rank VI; Xemnas saved it for Ienzo and was just waiting for an opportunity to get him back. So Zoey would get kidnapped at some point during COM. (much to Leonās distress) Bonus points for drama involving the three (technically 4 if you count Heartless!Ansem) dad conundrum.
Also during COM, Repliku stays alive because I love him very much and he deserves it. Leon doesnāt get sealed away though... the wholeĀ āturning into cardsā thing is weird and takes away from Luxordās power set so weāre gonna throw that whole thing away and instead have Leon get yeeted back to Traverse Town because the Org was getting sick of him interfering with fights and also, you know, having a damn braincell.Ā Plus, angst for when he realizes he forgot his kid for a year.
In kh2, since Ienzo is kidnapped, Kairi is the magician and can, in fact, heal. Zexion is part of the Org but really doesnāt want to be, Cloud and Leon get married offscreen after getting separated from the kids, Sorikai feels, Zexion kills Saix because I said so (and because saix killed vexen), significantly more murder because most of the org is alive (although Leon stops them initially from killing anyone because child soldiers and murder is bad), itās revealed that Roxas was in a weirdly close friend group with Zexion, Demyx, Axel and Her, all that good stuff. Hey, maybe after fighting Xemnas, Sorikai hang out in the Relm of Darkness and find Aqua. I dunno.
I would also like to mention, that in this theoretical au, healing spells arenāt a easily accessible thing, and magic itself isnāt widely accessible either. Generally, humans have a pretty low amount of magic, and while keyblades can boost and channel magic, they only really allow for basic offensive and defensive spells that can be improved upon. And though it can boostĀ āmagickaā to a point, itās not like you can just keep using magic forever. Why you ask? Well, making magic less accessible is just fun because it makes fights more grounded with higher stakes, as compared toĀ āblow the bad guy away with magic wind powers and then fly to safety.ā Plus, it means that not as many characters can use magic, making magic teachers a valuable resource. As for why healing spells arenāt really a thing? Well, I just personally think healing spells are kinda cheap narratively, especially since potions are a thing but my main two reasons are a) it solidifies Ienzo as a valuable asset both to the Gang and the Organization and b) angst. Like... oh I donāt know... Leon takes a bad hit for Sora while theyāre separated from Ienzo and out of elixirs/potions? Hmm...
And as a final act of total self indulgence, maybe throw some half-awake Ventus in there. As a treat.
(when I started writing this out like 4 hours ago, I barely had anything other than a concept. And then I overthought it, so now I have a whole timeline up until DDD. I will never do anything with it, but thatās why everything got weirdly specific in some sections. Iām sorry, I have no self control. Also itās 1 am and I am not cleaning this up)
