oh 100%, they're immediately great friends in the rebel survivor au <3 the jedi boyfriend support group probably takes a bit longer

it's been too long since i last drew the last (4) jedi original trilogy au, so had to fix that <3

Unrelated headcanon:

I like to think that Kanan, until his death, whenever he talked with or thought about someone from the crew, he imagined them as they were in S2 (before losing his sight). So even though Ezra and Sabine obviously grew up, he still imagined them as they looked the last time he saw them.

Maybe I would draw something with this, but It would have to be at least 2 pages, I guess.

Also can I just say that her decision to tell Sora that his job is to 'follow Riku and protect him if he starts down a dark path' without bequeathing him was a little... I can't think of the right word here but like. Keyblades are absolutely busted on a power scaling level. If Riku did go down a dark path (cough kh1 cough) what did Aqua expect Sora to be able to do to stop him/protect him? I mean, he could be a voice of reason, but that only works as long as someone is willing to listen, and the most effective way to defend against a keyblade is with another keyblade. And that's not even getting into the fact that if Sora was following Riku being a keybearer, he would need some way to defend himself, considering the things keybearers fight on the reg.

I get that she didn't want to to bring the Horrors down on them (and I guess to try and preserve what continuity they could with the weird circumstances Sora got Kingdom Key) but that ship had sailed when Terra bequeathed Riku in the first place.

Just another side skit Part 1

Just another side skit part 2

Ventus:On what? Your washboard abs? Put those away before I feel bad about myself!

Terra:I think you look fine as you are. Although it is a little hard to see you all the way down there.

Ventus:Alright man! So that’s how you feel?

Aqua:*walks in* Have you two seen the- TERRA! Shirt! We have a guest!

Kairi:*waves* Hey, island child. This is normal. I’m tired of wearing full shirts honestly. At least Terra has the decency to properly have his pants at the waist. Sometimes Riku blames the weight of the water for showing off his hips.

Terra:I knew there was a reason I chose him.

xxxxxx

Riku:Hmm, why do I feel like someone is yapping about me?

Namine:*drawing him shirtless* I’m sure it’s pleasant. Can you turn around for me? Look towards the water.

Riku:Like this?

Which of the Guardians of Light does Lea actually know going into the final battle?

Sora Course he knows Sora. Everyone in the organization knew Sora. Keyblade's chosen, major piece of the organization's plans. They developed quite a rapport through the events of CoM, plus on top of that all of Roxas and Xions' personal ties to him. Completely in the loop on who this guy is.

Kairi Fellow trainee in Merlin's Funny Timespace Distortion. Strongly implied they had several conversations and got to some level of friendship. Before that, he kidnapped her. Definitely acquaintances at the very least.

Donald & Goofy Sora's funny little guys that went with him through castle oblivion. He's spoken to them a handful of times. Maybe not directly, but you know. They're around. Probably unclear on the details of why they're here, but Lea doesn't sweat the small stuff.

Michael Mouse First of all, he's a semi public figure who interacted regularly with the king of Radiant Garden, so we cannot discount the possibility that Lea saw him just. Around. When he was a kid. Don't think they ever interacted through the events of CoM or Kh2, but at least might have had one conversation while they were preparing to save Sora from being norted.

Riku I would argue there's strong evidence Lea has no idea who the hell Riku is. Yes, Riku let him and Namine go in Kh2, but Lea certainly has no idea who that guy was. He was wearing a hood! Also was wearing Ansem's face! They don't talk in DDD because Riku was too eyes on the prize to particularly care about this random guy dropping in during a fight. Lea having any understanding of who Riku is I think hinges entirely on if he poked his nose into Vexen's work on the replica program.

Ventus Small teenager he had one (1) conversation with over a decade ago with a face identical to one of Lea's best friends. He asks for literally anyone to fill him in on why this is the case, or why this kid seems to have not aged a day in twelve years. No one does.

Aqua Random woman. Complete 0 idea who this person is. He might have heard someone refer to her using the title "Master" and that's all he's got to go on.

He wants to demonstrate to the class how this thing called electricity works, so he's going to be bringing in a Firebender, so everybody be cool, we're all friends here... and in walks Princess Azula of the Fire Nation. One-time conqueror of the city. One of the students is currently writing an essay on how her brief rule of the city affected fruit trade. She says she considers the class to still be her subjects as she doesn't acknowledge any pretenders to any of her thrones, but for now you're exempted from bowing and "Your Highness" will do. It's a really interesting lecture.

"Okay, guys - hey, listen up, everyone - I won't be here next week, me and Aang are going to-" yeah right, sure, Professor Sokka knows the Avatar. Except, of course, the Avatar walks in sheepishly and says that Appa might have gotten into Sokka's hybrid crops, and then you all have to sit there and watch your professor chase the Avatar around with a sword.

One postgrad student is specializing in Water Tribe Cultures. She's currently studying the massive cultural shift that happened in the Northern Water Tribe at the end of the war - oh, and Professor, I absolutely know that you're from the Southern Water Tribe, but it's just that the shift started with Master Katara, and of course I don't think that every person from the South knows one another haha it's just that I need to ask her some questions and I thought maybe you could help me write a letter or write a letter of introduction or...

Sokka looks at her blankly and goes "yeah, she's my sister. KATARA!" which is followed by a faint answering "fuck you!" from Somewhere and to the horror/elation of our postgrad, Master Katara bursts in and is promptly beaned in the head with a rock by Professor Sokka. Her brother. her hero and her professor are siblings and currently brawling on the floor.

I think about this sometimes and it still baffles me.
