ftpverse writing liveblogging i guess but i do love kairi pointing out how absurd the thing sora just said is because like. i DO have to keep her and sora from thinking too hard about it but if the readers overthink it well. no problem there :) just foreshadowing :)

the thing in question btw is "why could only YOU kill him" "magic is weird" "magic is MESSED UP"

(ftpverse) obsessed also with sora voice I have literally described something that could have happened between me and riku and had it been riku none of you would be making a fuss so shut the fuck up about my shadow

((prose from atr ch3))

“Um. He- he couldn’t die,” Sora explained, feeling stupid. It was hard enough to explain this thing he barely understood, let alone explain it around the knot in his chest. “He’d—he said he tried. I know Mickey tried. But—he could only die by my hand, or not at all.”

[...]

“But that’s why- that’s why I did it—even though I didn’t want to.” His chest heaved with a sob. He pressed his palms against his tear-filled eyes. “I didn’t want to. But- but I was the only option he had- I was—how could I deny him that? It felt... it would’ve been cruel...” 

He regretted it so much. He regretted—

Not doing it, but that he’d had to.
