"There's that 'Kingdom Hearts' stuff again."

Nomura can't ignore me forever. Every other year, I come up with new Kairi, Xion, and Namine lore about what their game would look like if Square wasn't a coward. They would literally make so much money.

"You're needed."

"Why me?"

"Because you carry half of Soraー"

"Sora needs you."

Making Kingdom Hearts Stuff Until KH4 Comes Out (Day 196)

This line (and the ones that go before and after) with that drawing messes me up wakregdk. Like this drawing that depicts a positive interaction of two people who have never met but are tied to each other in the most personal way possible. This is the drawing being shown while Namine tries to explain the reason as to why what Roxas will later learn he's being asked of (forced to do) is necessary. There's a cruel irony in it and really sad. Sora and Roxas have no say, no power, no choice in the matter.

It's the way Namine approaches her explanation too. She says the "You're needed" / "Sora needs you" with phrasing that kinds says "you're needed, you see." She's trying to do this as gently and kindly as possible.

no art today just bunnies

and at the end of the path is a castle.

And in the upper floors of that castle is a Witch

Kingdom Hearts - I’m Always With You✨

DO YOU THINK ROXAS REMEMBERS THIS?!?!?! DO YOU THINK ROXAS REMEMBERS TELLING SORA IT HAS TO BE HIM BECAUSE HE LOVED LIVING SO MUCH HE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE NEVER DONE WHAT SORA DID FOR HIM?

DOES ROXAS REMEMBER SORA TELLING HIM HE DESERVES TO BE HIS OWN PERSON?
