Description I remember when I was here for the first time, soaked by the rain, eaten by the night, drained by the emptyness of my heart. Standing on the brink of despair in a world without you. In my heart, I tried to make you whole. You were the one who completed me in the end.
Under a bright blue sky, I know now - we've never been apart, it was just too dark for me to see you in my arms.

me as Riku
Kingdom Hearts II

This scenery reminds me so much of The Brink Of Despair in The World That Never Was. Maybe Riku came back after it all and saw the eternal night to be gone. Everything has changed, including him, in a moment of sheer wonder.

You saved me in so many ways as there were steps on my journey back to you.

I love the scenario's you write out, and the quotes you submit with these pictures. They always fit so well. Written so much better than my attempted fanfictions. Is there anything you can't do? Lol great work as always, keep it up!

man, i love your dub (artist's comment, am i using the right word?). this photo might looked normal (if comparing to other awesome ones of yours) but your expression (dub) makes it great. it's so you and so riku.

I agree, the scenery is just about perfect in that sense. And it's such a wonderful thought; that land of darkness being lightened finally. I think your pose even communicates exactly what Riku's reaction would be here- a bit of surprise, wonderment, and a great deal of nostalgia and self-reflection. ^^

Riku still stands of the threshold of darkness, but with Sora there are so many options; a vast blue sky full of opportunity and light. Lovely, thank you for sharing.

*__* That description is just so poetic and thought-provoking; what a lovely read, thank you so much. This does look like The Brink of Despair, Riku looking out at the now bright sky while thinking that... Sora's light was always there within him. ^^ Gah, this is just so beautiful.

I think that he didn't change just by himself ~ I'm sure there it was someone else who helped him (^^)

I love the shadows and the angle, the sky really shows it potential . Lovely

I love the little quotes you associate with each picture. Each of them leaves a nice memory and also fit with the picture. And GAH I gotta finish playing KH2...college years are going to wreak havoc on my gaming life...

It seems a little odd to see you in normal Riku clothes after seeing you in so many variations. ^^
