bakerstreet | ( the Kingdom Hearts AU meme! )

Thinking of you, wherever you are
We pray for our sorrows to end, and hope that our hearts will blend.
Now, I will step forward to realize this wish.
And who knows? Starting a new journey may not be so hard
Or maybe it has already begun.
There are many worlds, but they all share the same sky:
One sky, one destiny.

THE KINGDOM HEARTS AU MEME

HOW TO PLAY

01: Leave a comment with your character’s name and fandom in the subject line! If you’d like, add a few lines of text in the comment body telling us what role you’d like your character to play. (Potential roles are listed below to give you some ideas!)
02: Look around and tag other people! Use the scenario prompts below as springboards, or go nuts with your own ideas. NOTE: there are some KH3D spoilers in the prompts!
03: ???
04: PROFIT!

ROLES

01: KEYBEARER. Keybearers, or Keyblade wielders, are those people who have been chosen to wield the Keyblade. Although Keybladers are supposedly charged with keeping the balance between Light and Darkness, they can come in many different flavours, fighting for the Light or the Darkness or neither. Although most Keybearers throughout history have learned from a Keyblade Master, it is not unheard of for Keybearers to be self-taught. A Keybearer can take a Mark of Mastery exam in order to be recognized as a Keyblade Master in their own right, after which they can take on students of their own.

02: PRINCESS OF HEART. People with no darkness in their hearts whatsoever, they are essential for preserving the balance, and are also the key to one way of gaining access to Kingdom Hearts. (There’s also only seven of them accounted for in canon, but this is memeland, we can do what we like here.)

03: LOYAL COMPANIONS. A Keybearer needs friends to support them on their adventure! They might be Keybearers themselves, or they might play more of a Donald-and-Goofy role. Either way, friendship is power in this ‘verse, so they’re super-important!

04: CIVILIAN. Not everyone can be a world-hopping adventurer. Some people stick around on just the one world, and have to deal with the problems that come with living in the KH-verse. Like Heartless, or Keybearers landing on your world and bringing chaos with them.

05: NOBODY. Nobodies are what’s left behind when a person loses their heart and becomes a heartless. Someone with a particularly strong heart will leave behind a human-form Nobody, who looks more or less like their original self and has all the memories of their original. Nobodies can travel between worlds using corridors of darkness and have no hearts of their own, although they can grow them through interactions with other people. Upon dying or being killed, Nobodies fade back into darkness, and if their heartless has also been destroyed, they will return to being the person they were before they lost their heart.

06: REPLICA. Replicas are a special kind of Nobody, clones artificially created from the memories of others. Replicas have the ability to absorb the memories and life force of others, and in some cases can be used to replace their originals. However, to date, most replicas seen in the series have been unstable in some way

07: MAKE YOUR OWN. No one said you had to restrict yourselves to these prompts! If you can think of something better for your character to be doing, by all means go ahead and do it.

SCENARIOS

01: A WHOLE NEW WORLD. Somehow or other, you’ve ended up on a new world! Are you here on a mission, or did you get here by accident? Maybe you should explore a little, but watch out for any trouble.

02: TRAVERSE TOWN. A hub world for all those whose worlds have been lost to darkness, Traverse Town sees a lot of traffic

03: MARK OF MASTERY EXAM. This is it – the final test of your prowess as a Keybearer. Whatever form your test takes, whether it’s a fight against your fellow apprentices, or a task on another world, you’ll need every one of your skills in order to pass it.

04: KEYBLADE WAR. Back before the true Kingdom Hearts was lost, the first Keybearers waged a ruthless and bloody war over the light inside it. You’re a player in this war – are you fighting to claim Kingdom Hearts for your own, or to save it? The choice is yours.

05: FIGHTING YOUR FRIEND. Have they turned to Darkness, or are they being controlled by the enemy you’re fighting against? Or maybe you’re just having a disagreement that’s escalated wildly out of proportion. In any case, they’re coming at you fast, so you’d better be prepared to talk them down somehow – or defend yourself.

06: GIVING IN TO THE DARKNESS. Whether the lure of power was too much for you to resist, or whether you were manipulated into it, your heart is rapidly filling with darkness. Can your friends help you out, or are you just too far gone to come back?

07: HEARTLESS! Or Nobodies, or Dream Eaters, or Unversed! Whatever flavour of darkness it is, you’re suddenly surrounded by a swarm of them, and will have to either run or fight them off to avoid getting your heart taken.

08: LOSING YOUR HEART. Whether your heart’s been taken over by an outside force, whether a Heartless has gotten to you, or whether you were just consumed by Darkness – this is it. You’ve lost your heart. Will you come back as a Nobody, or are you fighting the Enemy Within? And if so, what will you do now?

09: THE REALM OF DREAMS. Sometimes, when a world falls to Darkness and then returns to the realm of Light, part of the world remains sleeping, needing to have its Keyhole unlocked in order to return fully to the realm of Light. Enemies encountered in the Realm of Dreams are known as Dream Eaters, and the friendlier ones can also be recruited as allies.

10: THE REALM OF DARKNESS. How did you end up here? However you did, it’s best not to spend too much time here. Darkness erodes even the strongest of hearts, and the Heartless encountered here are far stronger and much more numerous than their counterparts in the Realm of Light.

11: MAKE YOUR OWN! Seriously, the setting allows for a heck of a lot more than I could put down as prompts here. Go nuts!

Ending up here hadn't really been part of the plan, not that there'd been much of a plan to begin with but she'd been here long enough to kind of settle in. The town was a strange one, that much was clear, the people not all that friendly to strangers, but she didn't have much time to worry about that.

She spent her days trying to locate familiar faces, wondering who else might have escaped the school.

SO LATE I'M SORRY

[Because someone from an actual Disney world had to throw in at some point and now we can imagine giant sentient tower Heartless bosses chasing after Sora and company.]

[Somehow, thanks to Kingdom Hearts magic, Flynn ended up in Twilight Town. Blame it on Sora - after those giant sentient tower Heartless bosses, Sora decided that Flynn and 'Punz were probably better off here for the time being, world order be darned.

Rapunzel had gone off with some other group, so Olette decided to take matters into her own hands and drag Flynn for some sea-salt ice cream.] So you're Rapunzel's boyfriend, right? You know what kind of ice cream she likes?

[ Princess of Heart. ]

[OOC: She would either be a Princess of Heart or Civilian. As a Civilian, she's probably been misplaced from her world, but as a Princess, Heartless can take the form of GUILT. Of course, open to other scenarios!]

[Keybearer or companion from a superhero universe]

[princess of heart! any scenario is fine!]

((Because what he needed was fewer emotional to get in his way of messing with people.

Forget the Nobody name. The ones I come up with are dumb sounding.))

[Black coat, plethora of zippers, and the ability to summon repulser guns at will. For being attacked by heartless Tony had to admit this turn of events wasn't half bad.]
"Hey there reindeer games, ready to go raise hell? I hear we got orders for good'ol Agrabah."

(OOC: when I was rereading this all I could picture was Demyx and Axel...and I think we both know who Demyx is...)

[Princess of Heart, Loyal Companion or Civilian.

Or really anything!!!]

[Anyone wanna train with him in the Coliseum?]

[OOC: She will, if you're interested.]

[Princess of Heart and/or Ally or Keybearer, any way I'm flexible.

Also up to having her be manipulated to darkness, for extra canon parallel bonus.]

[Sooo, Sora may have been flying the ship...and got last....and separated from Goofy and the King...]
Excuse me, sir? Do you happen to know where we are? I was traveling with a few friends and seem to have gotten separated....

[A reclusive Nobody without a name or any interest in the Organization. All she's interested in is her research.]

[Just for the shits and giggles let's make him a Princess of Heart shall we?]

[Loyal Companion would be most likely for her, but I could see her being a Princess of Heart as well with a little stretching]

[A nobody. Seriously she is perfect for a nobody. If not a nobody then a civilian or loyal companion would work too. I'm flexible.]
