💞what's the most important part of a story for you? the plot, the characters, the worldbuilding, the technical stuff (grammar etc), the figurative language
I already answered this one here! but the short answer is it's a three way tie between worldbuilding, technical stuff, and characters.
💥find your least kudos'd fic - say something wonderful about it.
aaaah, let me poke around, hold on - AH! fill my mouth with kisses and nectar. ode to a mango pt. 1. I really loved this! I enjoy writing making food and sharing food as a way to express love and nothing hits like sharing some good ass fruit with someone you love, be that family or friends or lovers. it slaps. also I just. really enjoy writing riku and kairi's relationship. it deserves more airtime.
💌share something with us about an up-and-coming work (WIP) that has you excited!
I have already answered this as well BUT I do have multiple WIPs in rotation so let's get it -
SO. I'm still working on completing the circle and writing the Soriku Woo Kairi fic. I want it to have like. children of the sea kind of vibes. and yes, I do mention events of kingdom hearts via kairi's arrival. no they aren't going to do shit about it. they aren't involved today.
I am ALSO thinking about repurposing a WIP I had that I thought was going to be part 4 of hyrule world tour but got scrapped for the work that is currently in its place. I'm delving into zelink and religious trauma again and it's gonna be a two-fer. hopefully. I don't wanna blab about it here 'cause this is already long enough lmao but if anyone wants to know I'm happy to talk about it....maybe that will excite me enough to actually get some words down.
Okay so the new ReMind trailer for KH3 ended up dropping for a bit, and it’s got me hyped up sooooo much! There is so much more going on in this DLC that we could have never imagined. Or at least, maybe I didn’t. Not to mention that it seems that all the pieces are starting to line up now and the story is coming together in a full circle.

SPOILERS BELOW HERE! CLICK ONLY IF YOU WANT
First of all we FINALLY have Final Fantasy characters back into the game! I am soooo happy for this fact too! I hope this all means that we get to explore Radiant Garden finally after so long, cause that would be pretty epic. But now that we have them back in the picture, the original Traverse Town crew, it makes me wonder something else. Will we get to see Cloud and Sephiroth again? Will they have another fight? What about Tifa? But not only that, we NEED a KH3 Sephiroth secret boss fight now! It has potential to happen now and I am SO THERE FOR THAT!
Also what is this? VANITAS??? HELLO?? Like, this is the only thing that I can think of with Darkness coming from Ven’s station of awakening. OR. Maybe we are getting the KHUX tie in and it’s showing that Ven has darkness like many of us have thought before? Hmmmm
And now we see that Kairi is in the Final World with Sora. I thought this was very surprising for sure, but I would assume it has something to do with him going to rescue her? Or at least that Sora will probably be changing something and Kairi happens to be there with him. But most importantly of all the stuff with Kairi we have seen, we have PLAYABLE KAIRI! Finally! So happy for this and she is going to be able to show what she can do now. Her moves look great! We see that she’s beating up on old man so I hope he gets what is coming to him.
Now this part really really had me interested! I am a HUGE Aqua fan so I was so surprised to see this. It seems as though that we are going to get an explanation as to why Aqua was just standing there in the original game and not doing anything and allowed the heartless to take her. I’m so glad they are addressing this too, because I had always been thinking that she had PTSD from being in the Realm of Darkness for so long. So this would make perfect sense as to why she was so scared. Dark Aqua represents her despair, her lowest point. And when she saw all of those shadows, what she was really seeing from her POV was the shadows of herself. It was basically her mind playing tricks on her, but a good way to show that her stay in the RoD had affected her in some way. This is vitally important in my opinion. All the angst is so strong.
Hey look more Aqua! These shots of her smiling are just so pure and bright. I had to just post them. But this moment also is very interesting. Riku asking her if she is sure. Sure about what? And she’s not alone this time? Hello?? What does this mean? I’m excited Aqua will hopefully be getting to do more again as well and I am SOOOO READY!
And here this team attack looks so freaking awesome! Seems that all of the guardians are in Scala though maybe?? Cause they are fighting the Nort vessels that were only in Scala. So that would be soooo interesting to see all of them there and playing a part in the battle. It’s what I wanted to happen sooo much originally.
Speaking of Scala though, it seems we are going to get to explore it! So happy about this as well. It’s gonna be a good experience.
Okay Demyx?! What are you planning boy? I really really want to know now. It’s curious that he shows up when the battle is done and is like “I figured you’d be gone by now.” That’s very VERY curious there. I am still thinking that he might be the Master of Masters though. I’m getting some serious “important” vibes from him honestly.
And then there is THIS. THISSSSS! I am stoked that they showed something like this. Sora talks about following the light and his own heart, and then lights up RIKU’s HEART with his keyblade. Like, this is just an incredible moment here. And I feel that they are really trying to tell us about the love they have for each other. And with the amount of things that we saw in the trailer for Sora and Kairi, and then Sora and Riku, I am convinced they are going to leave things either open-ended, or they are going for the trio method. I’m not really sure and it’s just my headcanon, but I am all for the feels!
This final part though of the trailer really SENT ME! Freaking Yozora WHATTTTTTT?! They are also in the Final World too. It’s so cool though the things that this could mean. Yozora means night sky, and they are in the Final World under that night sky. But not only that, they started SPEAKING THE SAME LINES! “I’ve been having these weird thoughts lately. Like, is any of this for real... or not?” I can’t believe this! This is mindblowing!! WHAT?! Are they from parallel universes maybe? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?????
In summary: JUST GIVE ME THE GAME NOW!!! I’M READY!
January 23 cannot come soon enough! (February 25 for those on Xbox sadly). May your heart be your guiding key!
AHHHHHH YES 😹😹😹 I really wanted pure protagonism for the baby girl, she had all the potencial since the beginning, and I hated that creators didn't let the f* chance, I wish we had more of this sooner, baby girl I will kill beasts by your side I swear... It just kind of stills bothers me that she is doing all of this for sora only... Like, of course she has a main couse but, this was all her motivation since the very beginning? Anyway, welcome to my loving arms goddess❤
3. What is that one scene that you’ve always wanted to write but can’t be arsed to write all of the set-up and context it would need? (consider this permission to write it and/or share it anyway)
honestly I don't think I've run into that yet...like every scene I've wanted to happen I've been able to include it in the fic so here's fucking hoping my streak keeps going lmao
6. What character do you have the most fun writing?
for kingdom hearts I think that'll have to be kairi and sora because like....there's depth there. untold depths. and we need to touch on it.
for zelda, botw specifically, I think....I really enjoy writing zelda so much because like. I can connect to her on some things. it's so easy for me to get into her head, I think....I mean I haven't blown it this far so I must be doing alright lmao!
for me it’s the beautiful scene of riku dreaming of his dad on his boat from tattoo/flower shop au. oh i cried and cried on the bus reading that i was such a mess 😭😭😭😭😭
🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 I'm sorry you cried!! but the tears do be giving me strength, it's true. my power grows jsjsjs.
but yes writing that scene was cathartic for me. 'cause I've had a lot of dreams like that, haha. so why not use it! aaah through and through my beloved. another fun one. and so goddamn long - I'm always proud of myself when I write something under 10k words lmao.
