"Think we'll be okay?" "Yeah. I think we will." With Missing-Link being cancelled, I'm obviously as torn up as everyone else. So, I decided to make this art of Vash, Player, and Brain as a memorial of sorts. I haven't done much 2D/3D hybrid art, but I felt like with this, using the trailer screenshot as a background was the only way to do it justice.

Vash and Player's story won't end. I won't let it. Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link will live on in our hearts. Our creations—our wonderful creations—will carry its spirit into the future. The story is ours to decide now.

May our hearts be our guiding key.

Ink October day 21 : Horseless

Being without a horse; specif., not requiring a horse; -- said of certain vehicles in which horse power has been replaced by electricity, steam, etc.. It was used primarily in the term “horseless carriage”, to refer to automobiles. By the 1930's when automobiles had become more common than horses for transportation, the term had lost its currency.

Not having a horse.

Guys…… I don’t know how to tell you this but….

That is NOT Luxu…..

There is something very wrong here. There are just some things that are not adding up. Some inconsistencies that don’t make sense. Even for KH standards

Let’s start with Xigbar as a whole. Everything about him just doesn’t add up to Luxu.

Luxu is quiet, uncertain, compassionate, serious, and at times aloof, distant, focused, unattached, has his heads in the clouds. He carries out what his master wants him to do, and he does it almost regrettably. He doesn’t want to do it, he doesn’t enjoy doing it, he just…. DOES it…

Xigbar however… he’s playful, not serious, not a deep thinker, enjoys ANY task he’s put on, feels no regret watching the people around him suffer and even enjoys it, has ZERO compassion, is confident in everything he does and is certain about EVERYTHING.

That is a complete 180 from the actual Luxu. And people could argue “he’s just pretending”. But he’s NOT. When he was reunited with the Fortellers he STILL had that exact personality.

Now you could also argue that time and body changing has changed his personality of the countless lifetimes he’s lived. Which is a pretty accurate assumption. Terranort doesn’t exactly act like Master Xehanort. But he at least has SOME character traits that can tell Xehanort is in there. Like his intelligence and looks.

But with Luxu and Xigbar, it’s night and day. They both have ZERO traits that are similar to one another. There isn’t even the tiniest HINT to Luxu’s character inside of Xigbar.

I know he says he’s Luxu but guys, this isn’t the first time someone stole a name. We might be dealing with another Ansem/Ansem The Wise type situation.

If he’s not Luxu, then who he is? Well, theory time.

I think, this is Darkness.

Whoever this individual is they have knowledge on moments of the past. Almost like they were there. Like the conversation between Luxu and Ava. The role the Master of Masters gave Luxu. And who the lost masters are and where they would reappear.

Darkness fits this role.

Now you may ask, if Xigbar is Darkness, what happened to the real Luxu? I’ll tell you:

Brain.

Or more accurately, Data Brain.

(Yes, Data Brain. Brain and the other Union leaders had data copies of themselves made in Data Daybreak Town and were put to sleep to be used as a backup)

Luxu was inside Data Brain. How did he get there? Let me tell you:

Luxu seals Darkness into his body during their fight after Luxu sent his True Dandelion away in the lifeboat, Luxu meets Brain, Brain tells Luxu his dilemma, Luxu offers a solution, Luxu takes Brain into the data world to get Data Brains body to put his heart inside of Data Brain. Luxu passes his Keyblade to Brain so that Brain can use No Name to put his heart inside of Data Brain, abandoning his body with Darkness still inside of it. Luxu in Data Brains body leaves the data Daybreak Town with Brain. Darkness in Luxu’s body uses the last lifeboat to escape the Data world without notice. Luxu inside of Data Brain takes Brains hat and sends Brain into the future. Luxu takes the hat, The Box and No Name Keyblade to the future to give to Brain officially later.

Luxu said he passed the Keyblade to one of the 5 Union Leaders in his report. But he never said when…

Meanwhile Darkness inside of Luxu’s abandoned body switches bodies due to old age and has been body swapping all the way up to KH3 where he eventually becomes…… Xigbar.

Xigbar pretending to be Luxu to get his hands on the No Name Keyblade and the box. Which he has no idea where it is because he’s not the one who hid it, that’s why he sent Luxord to look for it.

Remember the secret reports in KH3 written by Unknown? They stated:

“And now, *Keybladeless*, I must depart this land to fulfill my final task. This means casting my own body aside and sojourning my heart in vessel after vessel—as many as it takes.”

Keybladeless?! Luxu was Keybladeless. But here when he was supposed to have been Bragi, he has…. a Keyblade. Isn’t that controversial?

And listen to this!

They have the same goal. Since when did Luxu start looking for the chosen one?! That had nothing to do with his role.

I believe Xigbar is actually Darkness who has been body swapping just as many times as Luxu has.

Speaking of which, if Xigbar is Darkness and not Luxu where is Luxu today?

Luxu would have to be somewhere close by. Close enough to keep Darkness from meddling too much but not too close to where he would have to meddle himself. Luxu is only supposed to observe. Nothing more nothing less. So he would put himself in a position where he would do most of the watching with little of the work. And who do we know who hardly ever works?

That’s right… I believe the true Luxu is:

Demyx…

Demyx is Luxu!

Think about it. Doesn’t get involved, soft spoken, aloof, is quiet and keeps to himself mainly just playing his guitar, has his heads in the clouds. He is almost EXACTLY like the original Luxu in terms of personality.

And listen to his voice! He almost sounds exactly like Luxu. That young man voice. Read the Secret reports in Xigbars voice and Demyx’s voice and you tell me which one sounds more like Luxu.

There is something about Demyx that I can’t explain. When he fought Sora that one time there was something OFF about him…

“Silence traitor”. I will never forget that chill that ran down my spine when he said that. Heck, it shook Sora a little. The way he said it, the way his eyes looked when he said it. It was just full of…. heaviness. Like a guy who has been alive way too long to be dealing with Sora’s nonsense.

Like a guy who is very… VERY tired…

Demyx is Luxu. It just makes too much sense. And why they haven’t revealed his backstory yet. Why he’s the last backstory to be revealed.

Demyx…. is…. Luxu

*jolts up from a dead sleep* we’ve never seen Brain’s true keyblade.

We could’ve seen him become a keyblade master in Missing Link

I look in people's windows, transfixed by rose golden glows.

Ephemer stops by the window of a young family — a man, a woman, and their baby. The parents, his age, are laughing as they try to feed each other while their baby giggles and claps. He smiles, the sight pulling a memory to the front of his mind.

~~

Ven had giggled when Skuld shoved cake in Brain’s face, making the older teen splutter. He blinked at Skuld, then his expression twisted as he grabbed the cake and shoved the entire thing in her face. Ephemer burst out laughing at that, and even Lauriam had chuckled.

Skuld had gasped in mock offense, pulled the cake off her face, and proceeded to throw it over at Lauriam, who yelped in surprise. Ven laughed harder. Lauriam scowled at Skuld and Brain, making them both turn away at the Older Brother Stare(TM), leading to them being surprised as Lauriam planted cake in their hair. Ven and Eph couldn’t hold back their laughter.

Somehow, the Union Leaders all ended up having a food fight, causing the entire room to get covered in food. They’re only caught by Eph and Skuld’s friend as they walked in, just to immediately get a spoonful of food to the face. That had only made everybody crack up more.

~~

Ephemer pauses, his face falling as he turns away from the window. It’s been ten years now. Ten years since he saw his friends. Ten years since he started missing them…

It’s been seven years since he built Scala, eight since the first time he successfully taught someone to become a Keyblade wielder.

He misses them.

He misses them so badly.

He hopes and prays that Skuld was able to escape. That the others did too.

…He tries, yet again, to convince himself Brain is alright. It doesn’t work that well.

There was one Lifeboat left. There should’ve been none. There was eight of them, and seven Lifeboats. With the loss of his friend, there was just enough.

There was one Lifeboat left.

There should’ve been none.

Brain is mentioned in the Book of Prophecies specifically. He shows up in Scala in 100 years.

….Eph doesn’t think he’ll live that long. But he can hold out, for his friend..
