Kingdom Hearts Meme

[dreamymemey]

Welcome to the Kingdom Hearts world.

Where light and dark collide, and young heroes bearing weapons of legend stand in the face of the destruction of all worlds.

(...And where the plot gets kind of ridiculous, but eh, let's overlook that for now.)

What are you doing here? What might happen in this universe?

Usual meme rules apply. Comment with any preferences or ideas you have, and have fun!

Role:

1. Apprentice: You have been chosen as one who will wield the weapon of legend, the Keyblade. You’ve been trained for the day when you’ll stand up to what endangers the worlds. Is today the day?
2. Master: You have proven yourself truly worthy of the Keyblade. You have been entrusted with the secrets behind the worlds themselves. Do you fight to keep them safe? Do you use your powers to travel the worlds, or do you stay on your own? Have you chosen another to take your place one day?
3. Wielder by chance: You were never formally chosen by another to become a Keyblade wielder. Yet, somehow, it’s been passed to you all the same. Maybe you inherited the blade by accident, maybe its destined wielder couldn’t play their role, maybe something even stranger occurred. Still. It’s yours now. Can you rise to the challenge?
4. Prince(ss) of Heart: You are a child of light itself. One of precious few in all the worlds who can truly say that they are naturally devoid of all darkness in their hearts. But this might be a mixed blessing: who out there might think your heart is …useful?
5. Villain: You’re one of the bad guys. ‘Nuff said. Are your ambitions more local, or do you seek to bring darkness to the worlds as a whole? Did someone talk to you to make you a promise, or did the darkness itself do it?
6. Nobody/Organization XIII: Your heart has been taken. Your true self, your emotions. You live on memory and instinct alone, searching for a way out of your predicament… but perhaps one’s closer than you imagine? Still, you get a sweet weapon and powers out of the deal. Maybe a spiffy coat, too. Just watch for what comes with that last part.
7. Guest star: You’re not part of this whole keyslinging circle. But it doesn’t mean you haven’t been pulled into this mess. Your world’s been touched by what’s going on - are there Heartless or Unversed running around here? Or something else?
8. Other: You’re … okay, a wildcard. Have at it.

World: Due to the nature of Kingdom Hearts, and the sheer number of worlds, it’s impractical to list the lot in this meme… instead, the canon worlds can be found here!
However, for those more adventurous, there’s also those in the wider Disney canon, such as here...
Or just feel free to let your imagination roam! Is there anywhere that it’d be fun to take things?

Scenarios:

1. First summoning: So you’ve just gotten your hands on your shiny new Keyblade for the first time. What’s going on? How did you get it?
2. In training: This hero business isn't as glamorous as it might be made out to be. You've got to practice sometime, haven't you? No use throwing someone inexperienced in at the deep end ... wait.
3. Heartless fighting: Doesn’t have to be Heartless. You might be fighting Unversed, Nobodies or Dream Eaters… what’s important is that there’s some critter of the darkness that needs taking down, and quickly.
4. Mark of Mastery: Now’s the time to prove yourself. You’ve been offered the chance to finally become a Keyblade Master. What’s going on? Is this a formal test? Have you been sent off on a quest? Do you have what it takes?
5. Just chilling: Sometimes, even with all this going on, there are times to relax. Goof off. Play some games, eat some ice cream…
6. Power of ~Friendship~: We stand together! Time for dramatic speeches and having the bonds between hearts show their worth. You couldn’t get this far on your own.
7. Falling to the darkness: The light’s not enough. Whatever the darkness has promised you - power, knowledge, the chance to expand your boundaries - you’ve jumped on that chance. Or was something more subtle at work here?
8. On a mission: Whatever group or Organization you’re part of, they want you somewhere and they want you there now. It could be anything.
9. Other: Anything missing?

Comments

Kanji Tatsumi | Persona 4

[realmenknitplushies]

[Possibles:
* Organization XIII: Xinjak, the Imperious Storm?
* Keyblader: Either an apprentice with a key named Take-Mikazuchi or somehow got it after shenanigans in his own world.

Or open to suggestions!]

eventually 3? with Kanji as a keyblader and Natalia as some kind of tagalong

[healthepot]

[Ah, Agrabah. Good ol' Agrabah. Land of sand, interesting bazaars, sandstorms, heat, more sand, the Cave of Wonders, and--you guessed it--more sand. Now, Natalia's been to a desert city before but...]

The weather in this world is atrocious! I do hope we won't need to stay here long--where are we going, anyway?

Works for me~

[realmenknitplushies]

[More sand indeed. Kanji's starting to wonder just how it's getting into some of the places it's getting into. Still, they need to press on, before the Heartless get to the Sultan and his family...]

There's a back way into the castle grounds around here somewhere.

[And like hell is he going to try and deal with the guards.]

[healthepot]

[Natalia's fairly decent at the whole diplomacy thing, but dealing with the guards would probably take too long. After a moment more of lingering on her weather-related woes, Natalia moves on. Two sets of eyes are better than one, and they need to find a way into the castle.]

What are we looking for then? A hidden door, or a secret passage, or what? [She's starting to look for anything out of place already--castles and their grounds always do have a secret way in, after all. She should know, she grew up in one!]

[realmenknitplushies]

[Kanji shrugs slightly, squinting against the sun. He trails his fingers along the wall as he speaks.]

Heck if I know. Just somethin' suspicious. Didn't exactly get a map of the place...

[Not that he's sure if it would have helped much here. The place has been so full of twisty little alleyways that he thinks he's losing his mind.]

But this has to be the right way, right?

Marie | Persona 4

[caliginosa]

[~Princess of Heart~ Open to anything, really! Could be a good guy or dragged into darkness...]

Xehanort [Mirror Universe] | Kingdom Hearts

[another_chance]

[Teen protag keyblader.]

Scenario 9 okay?

[damselled]

[She doesn't know how she got here, exactly. One minute, the darkness is swallowing everything. Everything, and her loved ones are nowhere to be found. And she's falling, and she's not sure she can take it.

But she does, and she lands somewhere - she knows not where. But she's so dizzy, it's hard to make out very much, and she blinks blearily up at a boy who appears to be around her age.]

Where am I...?

Let's give this a go~

[another_chance]

You're awake?

[Just another day...

Xeha's used to the way this world works, of course; used to the way that it gathers those lost to itself, as he and his friends had once been. But it's never exactly good to see someone new, given what he knows it means.

He extends a hand to her.]

This place is called Traverse Town.

/o/

[damselled]

[She accepts the boy's hand, standing up and shaking her head to clear it.]

Thank you. But... however did I get here? [And where is everyone else?]

Re: /o/

[another_chance]

Come with me. We'll talk.

[He could give her every little detail. But now isn't the time.]

What's the last thing you remember before you arrived here?

Natalia L.K. Lanvaldear | Tales of the Abyss

[healthepot]

[Probably not a Princess of Heart, but she's likely to be a tagalong--either because you're in her world or because she latched on to the idea that she should do something about this whole Heartless mess and you're the first Keyblader who happened to pass through her world.]

Marie | Rhythm Thief & the Emperor's Treasure

[markedviolin]

[Princess of Heart! Or a really stubborn tagalong.

Could also toy with her being a Keyblade wielder of some sort!]

Maribelle | Fire Emblem: Awakening

[damselled]

[ooc: She can be a Weilder by chance, a Princess of Heart, or a Guest Star!]

Pitch Black // RotG

[boogerman]

[letxequalnull]

((So how would you feel about these two running into each other to... idk, talk shop, or something?))

[boogerman]

((please! I love kingdom hearts.))

[letxequalnull]

((Sorry about taking so long to get back to this! I had a couple of days where I was in a sort of weird brainspace and then the weekend hit, which is always super busy for me.))

[It's sometimes true, what people say about like drawing to like. True, Xemnas hasn't precisely gone looking for Pitch. In fact, he rarely seeks out anyone. But his recent excursions into the Realm of Dreams have brought him a little closer to Pitch's chosen domain. Enough that he's recognized the presence of another how might be like him.

More interesting, perhaps, is that he shows little fear, in stepping into Pitch's domain. For all that it might well be a realm of nightmare and shadow, he carries himself with an unconscious surety hat he will be able to defend himself from whatever might come his way.

(He might be right, too. Though he does dream, his nightmares are all someone else's, and he can only remember the dimmest echoes of fear, if that.)]

oh my god I am the worst

[boogerman]

[Someone entering his territory and not being afraid? Not even of the surroundings, but lacking fear at all? No fear?]

[That's just wrong. Everyone has to be afraid of something. He springs up behind Xemnas, quietly. He's not properly solid, there aren't any footsteps.]

What do we have here?

Dexter Grif | Red vs Blue

[grifshot]

Emizel | Disgaea 4 (stupid late)

[trademark_skull]

((Shamefully liking the idea of becoming a Role 3 Keyblader, but open to other ideas. Already got a Nobody AU to play with as well))

[theheartofdarkness]

((So about those Heartless... boss fight, y/n/m?))

[trademark_skull]

((I'm down for a boss fight))

Sorry for being so late, here

[theheartofdarkness]

[Keybearers are nothing new to Ansem. They are hardly common, true, but he knows very well what the weapons of light are capable of, just as he knows that in the end they will always come to him. This one is truly no different, for all that Ansem has little idea of what has driven this particular bearer so deep into the darkness.

But he too is drawn to that light, like the others of his kind. Enough to see what this bearer is made of, and his voice speak from out of the darkness.]

Chasing after shadows, I see.

It's fine, I have no idea what I'm doing anyway

[trademark_skull]

[...Perhaps he did go in a little too far. And maybe a tiny bit lost now. It may have only been a little bit of curiosity that brought him here in the first place, that and the key was somehow reacting to it, but even by demon standards this void was awfully...well, dark. Good thing Emizel could always turn around can come back where he came from...or was it that way. Crap, everything looked about the same now.]

[The voice got a good startle from him, seeing how he couldn't see where it was coming from. Until he can get a better idea what was going on he wasn't going to do a thing, besides find that exit again.]
