Your KH headcanon

[Absent]

This is a macabre one but I think about it a lot.

I always like the idea of worlds having “residual hauntings” that activate to certain people and their memories.

For example like Riku in CoM, if he went to Radiant Garden and walked the hallways alone he would see phantoms of his past happening like an event.

It’s similar like the Snarl of Memories that Roxas had in Destiny islands but less physical and a tiny bit less traumatic.

Not sure if a headcanon, or just a connection I'm making up.

I see the three masters of the era (Mickey, Aqua, Riku) as inheritors and better versions of the masters of the ancient era (Yen Sid, Eraqus, Xehanort).

Yen Sid retired from participating in the conflict, and allowed a lot of shit with Xehanort to happen. He trained Mickey, who also started the series as being far removed from the action and watching secretly from a distance, but gets progressively more directly involved (and more importantly, honest) as the games go on.

Eraqus, while a kind man, was your typical lawful stupid character, willing to kill Ven in front of Terra, causing his own death. Aqua, his student, also began as a rules following good apprentice, but slowly began to question the paradigm she was raised with, and ended putting more value in her friends and their connection compared to her master.

And then, Xehanort. Riku is only indirectly a successor. Ansem SoD "trains" him in CoM, being a combination of Xehanort and Terra (who was kinda Xehanort's pseudo pupil for BBS). Xehanort was trying to balance darkness and light, but completely sinks into darkness and tries to kill everyone. Riku, partly because of Ansem SoD, is *actually* able to succeed where Xehanort cannot. He becomes a Master, and is using darkness attacks all the way to KH3. He then directly is told by Ansem SoD to continue to seek.

So now there's three active masters again, and they're better people than the three ancient ones they've thematically succeeded.

Destiny Islands is at the same level of tech as Twilight Town, Sora and Riku just live closer to the coast so we don’t see the entire main island.

I see no other reason why they wouldn’t, since KH2 established they have high school on the islands

Naminé plays guitar. I don’t know why, but I just see her playing guitar at like a park or something.

Goofy and Max, at some point before the games, went on a vacation and had The Goofy Movie happen. Which is why he never worries about Max, since he's all grown up when KH1 starts.

The "warrior's journey" that Seifer went off on with Fuu and Rai that's mentioned in KH3 eventually leads him to bump into Leon

 

[KairiTheMang0]

Isa really really likes turtlenecks and even he doesn't know why he does.
