I wrote a fic! I wrote a fic, I wrote a fic, I wrote a fic!
Okay, so it's more like a ficlet, but I'm still ridiculously happy, since it means my fanfic muse is back- hopefully to stay. Lately, I've been researching Kairi from Kingdom Hearts for fandub purpouses, and this means I've been channeling her voice in more ways than one. I even picked up a Kairi-muse, who's currently hanging around dear_mun while I try to find an asylum or survival-horror RP with crewmates.
Anyway, now that you know why I'm writing for Kingdom Hearts instead, have a one-sided Riku x Kairi drabblefic set during KHI!
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts: if I did, there would be a SoKai kiss scene at some point during the games.
She is heartless, lifeless, pale as seafoam; and yet she is still unimaginably, incredibly beautiful. He hates seeing her like this, unfeeling and unresponsive. It is a sharp contrast to the Kairi he knows, the one with wonderful ideas and an even better laugh.
Yes, sharp; he thinks, that is the perfect word. Sharp, like the blade of a knife sliding between his ribs, sliding into the place where a voice whispers Kairi, Kairi loud enough to drown out the world.
But he stays by her side for as long as he can, holding her cold hand and talking to fill the silence, and he knows in spite of himself that this will not bring her back.
For Kairi is with him, but her heart is with Sora. And that is the sharpest, most painful, realization of all.
