Together Forever - Kingdom Hearts Trios

Description




"The three of us can never be torn apart, alright? I will always find a way." - Terra


Been wanting to make this for ages - the friendship of all the amazing trios in Kingdom Hearts.

I didn't include Kairi x Sora x Riku BECAUSE: in my opinion they just don't have the same chemistry that Sora x Donald x Goofy do. Maybe its because of the fact that the majority of the game was about them being APART rather than TOGETHER so I didn't feel it as much as Donald and Goofy. (The same probably applies to Roxas - most of the emphasis of the game was on Roxas and Namine separated than together, hence why I ship Roxas x Xion more).

Also I feel bad for Donald and Goofy because no one really gives them recognition, all the attention goes towards Sora x Kairi x Riku even though they've clearly gone through a hell of a lot more together so I decided I'd give them a little love.

Originally I had all this wonderful meaningful text all over it but it just didn't work... So I scrapped it all. :P

You know, you could always analyze Sora, Riku and Kairi's dynamics based on two of the keyblades based after Riku and Kairi, including Oblivion and Oathkeeper, respectively.

Oblivion represents Riku because it's a darker, more sinister looking keyblade that puts a stronger emphasis on physical attacks.  Oathkeeper, meanwhile, represents Kairi because it's more light and benevolent, and puts more emphasis on magic as a result.  Hell, the teeth for those two keyblades resembled kanji for "darkness" and "light", respectively!  In other words, even though Riku and Kairi were not Sora's AI-controlled companions like Donald and Goofy throughout the first and second Kingdom Hearts, at the very least Sora kept keyblades that symbolized his dynamics with Riku and Kairi.

Also, notice how Riku and Terra would both represent earth, yet Axel -- Roxas and Xion's own version of Riku and Terra -- is based on fire rather than earth.  I have no idea why Tetsuya Nomura would put a fire-themed character in the same role as the two earth-themed characters.  All I know is based on what I got from the first two Golden Sun games, that earth and fire share some sort of symbiotic relationship due to them being warmer than the much cooler wind and water, which are what Roxas and Xion represents, respectively.
