Tired of people grouping Xion with Naminé and Kairi when they think she's a Kairi. She's not, she's a Sora! She's arguably more a Sora than Roxas is. Roxas at every moment when confronted with the fact that he came out of Sora reinforces his own personhood or rejects being Sora. Whenever he sees Sora's memories he doesn't identify them with himself. Even at the end of the KH2 intro when he's accepted what's happening his final line isn't about returning to something, it's that his "summer vacation" (life) is over. Xion however immediately thinks that Sora's memories are her own. Additionally she acts more like Sora. Always throwing herself into things or rushing off before thinking them through because it 'feels' right, willing to sacrifice herself for her friends over and over and over again and not seeing any issue with it, never learning from it. She acts more like Sora so much that Riku (the person that knows Sora the best) thought something was wrong and that Xion was actually Sora's nobody and not Roxas, for a bit in the novelization. She's a Sora, and the fact that she's a Sora is so much more important than that she looks like Kairi. It's fine to group her with Kairi and Naminé because she's one of the girls, but you can sometimes tell when it's that versus 'the Kairi's'.
