The Never Quiet Mind

Ven: “Wait, we have a son!? Since when?

Sora: “Well, when two hearts come together a new life is created after they have joined and...

Ven: *waves hands frantically to stop Sora from finishing* “Wait, wait, wait. I know that, but I don’t recall the act of penetration - and we’re both guys.”

Sora: *scratches head and then hits his fist to his palm in realization* “Oh! I stabbed myself with the Keyblade. That must be when Roxas was formed, because that’s when I became a heartless.”

Ven: *laughs nervously* “I completely misunderstood you, earlier. Don’t be so misleading.”

Sora: “I’m sorry, what’d you think I meant?”

Ven: *blushes in embarrassment* “You never mind that! Huh, so I have a son, and his name is Roxas... Wait, does that make me a mother or the father?

Sora: *folds arms in thought* “I’m clearly the father, since I did the stabbing - orrrr, does that make me the mother and the father, since I stabbed myself?

Riku: *unfortunately hears the conversation at the wrong time* “What are you two idiots droning on about?’!?”

Ven and Sora: “Our son!”

Riku/Aqua/Vanitus: *throws face in palm*

Vanitus: HELLO?! We’re supposed to be in the middle of a serious and emotional fight right now.”

Sora: “But we are being serious.”

Ven: “Totally.”

Vanitus: *throws hands in the air in frustration and lack of patients* “That’s it. I’m out of here. I’m going home. I can only handle one idiot at a time. Goodbye my dear BROTHERS.”

Sora: “Rude. Hey Ven, why’d he call us his ‘brothers?”

Ven: “I have no idea.”

Sora and Ven: *look at Aqua and Riku with confused, and questioning gazes*

Aqua and Riku; *look at each other and shake their heads in disbelief*

All three are shown sleeping peacefully - for all those sleeping realm theorists out there. Although their sleeping state could signify that each one of them are not awake/aware of the worlds that are out there, or awake/aware of their future destinies at the time they were young.

In this scene, the island is small and void of any danger, the weather is pleasently sunny, and the sea is calm and no other island can be seen. This may indicate that their time of peace is pleasant, but short as the island is small. While what waits ahead of the three is so much larger than their tiny Destiny Island.

They are each holding hands, Sora in the middle, depicting their connection. Sora is holding both Riku’s and Kairi’s hand, indicating that Sora’s love for both his friends is equally strong, deep, and at this time, his love may even be equal in nature. As evidence by his grip on the two, as he lies in the middle, appears the same. Not one is held more tightly than the other.

Now for all you shippers out there, this is either good news or bad - after all, who said you could only love one person. Now the question is, what IS the nature of Sora’s love. Is it merely friendship, the love one feels for a family member, is it romantic, or a combination of the three? I believe that not matter how Sora loves, his heart is large enough to love both, or even be in love, with both. Sora is able to connect with others and touch their hearts in a beautiful way. Through Sora, many hearts have been connected, sheltered and even saved.
