Kingdom Hearts Meta-Tree
The 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.

Re: Riku
...I can pull out my giant file, too, if you like. I have LOTS OF SONGS, though it might take a while to - YouTube, you said? Yeah. Mostly other people, but there's some Riku.

Re: Riku
Don't save me
Don't save me,
'Cause I don't care
Killswitch Engage - Still Beats Your Name
Who knows how long I've been lost in the dark?
Followed closely by the footsteps of my failures
What can I do to alter my perception
Of the way and truth?
Mudvayne - Forget to Remember
Feeling undone
What have I become?
When I turned my back on you I turned my back on myself and became this machine
Paramore - When It Rains (kind of shippy - Sora/Riku/Kairi, though that might depend on your personal taste)
You made yourself a bed
At the bottom of the blackest hole
And convinced yourself that
It's not the reason you don't see the sun anymore
Peter Gabriel - Darkness
When I allow it to be
there's no control over me
I have my fears
but they do not have me
Peter Gabriel - Sky Blue (Riku/Sora)
Warm wind blowing over the earth
Sky blue
I sing through the land, the land sings through me
Sky blue
Reaching into the deepest shade of
Sky blue
Peter Gabriel - More Than This
I walked until I couldn't walk anymore
To a place I'd never been
There was something stirring in the air
In front of me, I could see
Sting - Mad About You
A stone's throw from Jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
The Verve Pipe - Hero
I'm just a jerk
But a hero's what I wanna be
VNV Nation - Genesis
Breathing in an air
Permeated, soaked in darkness
Emanating from within
Resonating like a scream no one can hear
I wear this chaos well
Though none should save me
Desperation keeps me here
My need for innocence, the place where I began
The abyss becomes me
I wear this chaos well
