I just took down the Christmas tree and it’s got me feeling some kinda way. I had a thought about Sora and it spiraled out of control
Sora is obsessed with Christmas I don’t make the rules
Living on the islands has made him feel deprived of the true Christmas experience
Since childhood he has been desperate to know everything about snow
Decorating a palm tree is NOT THE SAME RIKU
Finally being old enough and having enough money to buy a proper tree
Spends months trying to decide what ornaments to get
Hiding a Mickey, a Donald, and a Goofy on the tree because it just feels right to have them there
Putting up the tree before taking down the Halloween decorations
“NO, Kairi, Christmas did not explode in here”
Christmas totally exploded in there
Riku not letting him buy any fake snow because Sora is already a Mess™️
Literally not being able to leave any presents under the tree because he cannot be trusted
Leaving a huge container of cookies for Santa to take back and share with everyone in Christmas Town
Waking up Christmas day before sunrise
Trying to sneak a present “when did these get here?” but they’re booby trapped (RIIIIKUUUUU)
Getting tangled up in ribbons and wrapping paper at least 3 times
Making seashell ornaments for next year
Sitting up until midnight or later just admiring the lights
Getting sad knowing that everything needs to be put away soon
Sniffling while taking the ornaments off
Hiding his face and tears when the lights come down
Openly sobbing while Riku and Kairi take the tree apart
Can only be consoled with ice cream and promises of next year being bigger and better
Marking the days off until November 1st
