KH4 Inside Out world

Sora meets Joy who's trying to get back to headquarters and safely return what she calls “treasured memories”

The entire time Riley isn't mentioned by name but because it's Inside Out, because it's Joy, players are led to believe this is Riley's head

They end up in the dump, the treasured memories scatter. Sora collects them.

He picks up the first one and sees the memory it holds. He sees a boy that looks kind of like himself? As a kid? Calling himself the “best secret keeper in the world.”

Sora's confused. Why is HE in this memory?

He picks up another one

He sees himself on the other side of the door to darkness, hears Riku's voice say “take care of her” and sees himself nod before the door is shut.

Sora grabs another: sees himself sat at the dark margin saying “I've got something you could never imitate too.”

Grabs another: sees himself barrelling forward for a hug shouting “You’re safe, Riku!”

Takes one more: sees himself drop down from the sky, huge smile on his face as he looks up and says “I made it!”

There's one more. Sora picks it up, he sees himself as a kid again, tears on his face, holding the crown necklace in his hands, he hears Riku's voice calling it a good luck charm.

It hits him.

These aren't just any treasured memories

These are Riku's treasured memories

He looks at Joy

“If these are Riku's treasured memories… does that mean Joy is Riku's…?”
