I NEARLY FORGOT TO UPLOAD THIS (ASASch60)

MY ABSOLUT E BAD I FORGOT UNTIL LIKE THE LAST SECOND


(handy link) (tracklist) (art)

Well I don't think I uploaded this mix on here yet so here

Also apparently I was lame and just named it "Roxas" like??? Okay then

READ THE CHAPTER

AND THE TUMBLR NOTES

please keep in mind that there's a looooottttt of notes in my tumblr and like I do have a few notes I'mma post here, but most of them are on tumblr.
It's because I waited ages (see: until I needed to rewrite it slightly) to make a section in my notes document for it

Yeah


I wrote the first bit--them meeting Roxas--out of the blue in a brainstorm and it was pretty much written out word for word instead of the sloppy sort of template dialogue that I normally do. ah.
so there wasn't much to do about that I maybe edited the dialogue a bit idr

ALSO HA EVERY SCENE WITH ROXAS, IN MY HEAD, HAPPENS IN HALLOWEENTOWN. WTF?
I'D LIKE TO KNOW WTF

aaah yeah idk

idk i was having a lot of feels in general because of later stuff and foreshadowing

BUT WOW MMG TO THAT FORESHADOWING IT'S BEAUTIFUL I LOVES IT. A LOT.

also unreliable narrators are a thing and y'all should keep that in mind thank

Uuuuunfortunately I have to rewrite it a little to fit with current DI happenings and also fix up the alskjfa at the beginning
And maybe I can squeeze in more foreshadowing…
(I also forgot Ven was lefthanded and I potentially need to go more into Aqua’s reaction to Roxas and two Keyblades)

HA DID THEY SKIRT AROUND THE FACT HE WAS A REPLICA? No they didn’t but he doesn’t tell them what it entails he doesn’t tell him that’s why he can wield two Keyblades he only implies it’s the reason why he can imitate their attacks

*casually adopts kat’s headcanon that Ven is really super pale*
LIKE HERE IS ALINK TO THE POST SHE MADE ON IT (she also mentioned it in passing here but it’s largely in that other post)

I knoooooww the font on her blog is hard as hell to read (I have it zoomed in to like 175% and I can still barely read it) so
She basically said that Ven’s eyes were like the same color as Sora’s but after Van was split from him they paled. A lot. Aaalso he was like same skintone as Roxas but that paled a lot too.

(ehheheh I wonder how Aqua noticed Roxas’s skin is dark like you can only see his face. Dumb org cloak.)

Aaalso wow I’m just gonna cut straight to the chase here why expand on stuff that happens before they meet when everything exciting happens after she lays eyes on Roxas y’know?

YOU’LL DEF WANT TO CHECK OUT THE TUMBLR TAG THO I LITERALLY PUT EVERYTHING THERE I’m recounting some of it here but I def won’t recount everything for you

Ha it’s not that Aqua doesn’t like Roxas without reason it’s that he’s a) rude and b) completely cold to both of them plus he really does like. Mood swing. All over the place.

Ven’s just a little… aloof I guess (it’s what kat called him but my Ven seems more down to earth) and while he’s usually very in tune with everyone closest to him, it takes him a bit to notice discomfort in strangers
(something to do with the fact that he’s pure light??? He doesn’t expect to see malice everywhere he goes. Tho he does in my universe so this isn't 100% accurate okay idk just mentioning it I don't have to adopt all of her headcanons but there's no reason for me not adopt a few)

MOST OF MY HEADCANONS FOR THEIR SKIN COLORS I STOLE FROM KAT TBH like my Roxas is darker than she imagines him to be (my Roxas probably is roughly the same skintone as Sora since he's more directly tied to Sora being a Replica and all and not just a Nobody) and Riku and Namine are really really pale because Replicas
(Roxas is a Replica but he ended up with darker skin just because)
I ALSO SAID JOSEPH HAD LIGHT SKIN BUT WHAT IF THAT'S BECAUSE IENZO IS ACTUALLY REALLY REALLY PALE HMM

anyway

Roxas is like. Running two missions at once today. I swear.

Roxas could fight left handed if he wanted to. He just… isn’t.

IT TURNS OUT I DIDN’T EDIT AS MUCH AS I EXPECTED TO??
???
That’s okay tho I just need to cut the whole Aqua being suspicious of Roxas thing
And add her hearing Sora

LIKE THE THING IS IDK SHE HEARS HIM FOR A SECODN BUT VEN SAYS HE DIDN’T AND ROXAS IS HELLA IMPATIENT SO SHE JUST. DECIDES SHE’S HEARING THINGS
Yeah
the charm wasn’t pulling as strongly on her I don’t think it was distance but I think it was one of those?? Idk. THE IDEA THAT THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLEA ROUND TO CONNECT DIRECTLY TO AUQA’S BRAINLENGTH IS ACTUALLY A GOOD ONE?? Like it can connect to Sora because it can but there are so many other people around and trying to manipulate them so Sora can get through the crowd plus latch on to Aqua when there’s a) distance and b) a lot of people??

nooooope
