kingdomheartsThe idea of this post if to create an easy way to share meta and other fannish things without the pressure to create a separate post. You can write your thoughts on a specific character or pairing - detail why X is more awesome than Y or just what makes you think so-and-so are best friends/enemies/lovers. You can share the music you listen to while writing/drawing KH fic and art. You can share what you think about a specific game, from 'not as good as XYZ', to critiques of art and costuming. The key part, though, is to just go ahead and comment.
If there is a topic you think needs to be added to the comment tree, then simply comment in the appropriate place, and let other people tell you what they think.
How it works:
(Top Level Comment:) Characters
Meta or discussion about characters goes here.
|---------------(Reply:) Riku
All musings about Riku start as a reply to this comment. Anything goes,
from motivations and changes in his character over the course of the games
to a critique of his hairstyle. Have fun.
|---------------(Reply:) Hero vs. Anti-hero
Part of Riku's appeal is the contrast he provides to Sora. Sora is cheerful, open, unselfish and
he makes friends with everyone he meets. In contrast, Riku is moody, more inclined to hide his
real feelings, possessive about his friends and suspicious of the motivations of strangers. While
Sora is a genuinely nice person, it's easier to relate to Riku because of these 'flaws'.
|---------------(Reply:) The blindfold is cool.
Very existentialist, but mostly just cool. Goes well with all the black.
Current categories for discussion are:
Characters:
Pairings, friendships and other ships:
Fan Soundtrack:
Games:
Links, recs, and other fannish things:
If you can think of another category you think needs to be added as a top-level comment, then please suggest it by commenting below.
Rules are simple:
1. Use the subject header in your comment, please. This lets people know what they are looking at, and, for the games section, provides spolier warnings.
2. Be civil. You may not agree with somebody's statement about a character or pairing, but no bashing. Just reply to the comment and tell us why. Discussion is the whole point of this post.

Date: 2011-04-25 09:31 pm (UTC)Like Like by Tammaiya - In which Kairi is the smart one, Sora is a little slow on the uptake, and Riku is just dumb. (Sora/Riku, PG)
Island by Punk - The water feels like wind, like flying. (Riku/Sora, G)
A Complete 180 by Uzumaki-sama - Sora's childhood sweetheart suddenly moves back to the island, and 'she' isn't quite what he remembers...in more ways than one. During a crazy summer of odd friendships and high fashion, Sora struggles to find his identity in a conformist world. (Riku/Sora, NC-17)
