Fangirl meme

Comment with the name/title of a fandom I'm aware of, no matter how obvious you think the answers will be, and I'll reply you with the relationships - canon or not - from it I ship. I'll give favorite romantic relationships as well as favorite platonic ones. Also, you're free to reply in subthreads and ask me why I ship or don't ship something.

Have at. :D

Ahh yes, those were seriously my favorite parts during CoM. Just the way Mickey was subtly saying SFTU YOU ADORABLE TARD to Riku, and Riku being all OH OOPS SORRY AHAHA. ...*has an odd way with words*

I do know what you mean though. The problem with having close friends over a long period of time is that thought in the back of your head that makes you wonder, "Are they being honest, or are they just being my friend?" It's odd how sometimes I find myself taking the word of someone I've known for a month over someone I've known for a year. Though that's likely due to not having a chance to develop an unconscious bias/saying what the person wants to hear.

I always hated that deal with friendship - the closer you are, the harder it is to be honest (generally speaking).

But YES, I completely saw why Mickey affected Riku the way he did. It wasn't a life-long friend talking to him and "possibly" saying what needed/wanted to be heard, it was this person of awesome ~~Yodaness~~ higher up than Riku could ever reach saying LOOK YOU'RE A GOOD PERSON OKAY NOW *KICK OF LOVE* UP AND AT 'EM.

I like woob.

*countered your tl;dr MWAHAHAHA*

Oh, do share Riku/Kairiness :D~ It might make me want to draw more of them ♥

Yes, exactly. :D It's exactly the same "yes, you idiot, we LOVE YOU" treatment he would've gotten from Sora or from Kairi, but the fact that it was coming from somebody totally new to him made it somehow more credible. Mickey has nothing he's trying to preserve with Riku - he just really does think Riku is worth it.

Which was pretty much exactly what Riku needed, not just to get over his mundane insecurities, but also to surmount his MASSIVE GUILT COMPLEX and get shit done. Mickey's friendship and loving kicks in the ass were probably a large part of why he was willing to go home in the end. :D

Woob is good.

Ah, and the Riku/Kairi... I think it's because there's such an overarching theme of reconciliation and forgiveness there. For one thing, they're thematic opposites - she's Light, the Princess, the Damsel, while he's Dark, the Rival, the Foil. He called the darkness to Destiny Islands, she tried to fight it back. And, of course, my whole theory about her fear of him and his insecurity about her. They were completely at odds at that point in the story, and their relationship could easily have been the weakest link between the three friends.

... And yet, Riku tries to help her when she loses her heart, even if he fucks things up worse by trying. Even after he's possessed by Ansem, his will to protect her is so strong that he can stop Ansem dead in his tracks before he has a chance to hurt Kairi. And Kairi, in KH2, reaches out to him, and believes in him even when he's resigned himself to possibly never being with her and Sora again.

It's just so... They take everything that could come between them, weaken their relationship, tear them apart, and they make it another bond. It's beautiful, is what it is. To top it all off, they even have a pleasing visual contrast. I lurve them. :DD

;_;

Yeah. Yeah that's kind of exactly it, yeah. ♥

(and, of course, i feel the need to balance it out with a sora/riku icon. i'm a dork, :])
