My favorite Kingdom Hearts fact is that one of the biggest plot-holes that Nomura has never been able to meaningfully retcon or write his way out, a plot-hole so big that it fundamentally breaks the very rules the series is written on...
Is the existence of Steamboat Willie
Tumblr media
Let me explain for the uninitiated:
In Kingdom Hearts 2, there’s a small detour in the story involving Maleficent trying to invade Disney Castle, the home of King Mickey. She can’t step foot in the castle due to an artefact of pure light that wards off darkness locked in the basement.
Pete, who is working for Maleficent, opens a door into the past (Before Disney Castle, this land was known as Timeless River) and decides to remove the artifact from it’s place in time so it won’t be there to stop them from getting in.
Sora, Donald, and Goofy chase Pete into the past thanks to another magic door provided by Merlin, and through some shenanigans involving old cartoons and teaming up with Pete’s past-self, they lock the door the villains are using, and return the artefact to it’s proper place so it can exist in the present.
You with me so far? Pretty straightforward-ish time-travel plot right?
Here’s where it goes off the rails.
Time travel would go on to become a staple of Kingdom Hearts going forward and would come with a very strict set of rules over how it operates:
1. You can only travel to a point in time where a version of yourself exists
2. You basically give up your body to do so, and travel as a disembodied soul unless you have a vessel to inhabit
3. You can’t alter the past in a meaningful way, what’s going to happen will happen
4. You lose your memories of said trip once you return, but your actions could leave a lingering instinct on your other self that could influence their decisions
“Wait” you may be thinking “Why should anyone go through all those hoops? Wasn’t time travel super simple that first time?”
And you’d be totally right, because the existence of Timeless River completely renders all of these rules and restrictions meaningless. 
There is no version of Sora that existed in Timeless River before he step foot there, everyone kept their bodies, the trio and Pete were able to mess with the timeline as freely as they pleased, and they all very much remember their trip. 
Nomura has never been able to meaningfully explain this super simple, easy way of time travel and the more convoluted method co-existing other than a cheap-throwaway line from one of the villains saying that Merlin “broke the rules” 
Tumblr media
The hilarious part about this line is that it implies that PETE of all characters is actually more powerful than the actual villain of the series, because Pete opened a door into Timeless River through sheer willpower and nostalgia for “the good old days”
But the all-knowing chess-master of a villain who had an evil plan several decades in the making with countless moving parts and contingencies to account for had to use the roundabout, more complicated method of time travel where a lot could go wrong.
Pete though? Dude just casually broke all the rules of time travel because he felt like it. He's just built different.
Tumblr media
TL;DR: Steamboat Willie breaks Kingdom Hearts lore in half, Pete is more powerful than Master Xehanort, and I fucking love this beautiful trainwreck of a series you guys it means so much to me
I love Kingdom hearts so much.

So, I think there's a missable text bubble quote of Donald's in Kingdom Hearts II. I remember the old Tumblr user PaopuMilkShake talking about it (I think another user has that name now and it's not the same old PaopuMilkShake, if anyone was thinking about trying to go and ask about it). And after they mentioned it, years ago, I also vaguely remembered getting Donald to say it in game.
Does anyone else remember this? Or better yet, have a screenshot of it or anything like that?
I think it's after Riku joins the party. But I think you have to go to one of the previous rooms where you've been in--where Donald's walking around and you can talk to him--to trigger it. I think it's something along the lines of, "First Kairi, and now Riku's joined us! We're unbeatable!"
He might also mention King Mickey--as "The King," of course--here (and if he does, he may mention him first?) in this quote.
Edit: I've tried to Google tonight, but have had no luck finding anything about it. But it very well could be that I'm not remembering the quote well at all, and that's why it's not coming up. I've also watched two playthroughs to see if these LPers encountered the quote, but it wasn't in those, either, but they didn't go back to where I think it was to encounter it. So that could be the explanation for that, too.

So I learned this from Twitter and DidYouKnowGaming, but apparently there were plans for an Epic Donald game that would have similar gameplay as Epic Mickey, but would have been based on the Carl Bark's Disney duck comics and the Ducktales show with each level being a different adventure.
Tumblr media
Apparently Magica, Gyro Gearloose, the Beagle Boys, Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Scrooge would have been major characters.
Tumblr media
But after Disney Interactive got scrapped and Disney started licensing games instead of making them... the idea got scrapped too.
... Why...

You know, it's not that easy to admit when a AU is dead, so I just won't?? I'm still not sure
Instead I thought it'd be fun to show some of the things and ideas I planned out, so have these few no context drawings!

These are just some concept ideas that crossed my mind, guess I just never knew how to tell this story? Something along those lines and hey maybe someday! Anyways, I appreciate everyone that took some interest in it!

alright, question for the esteemed jury (though I imagine this will be a uniquely american, if not perhaps also canadian, experience):
are you familiar with the children's game that involves slapping hands around a circle while singing a song that begins "down by the banks of the hanky panky"
and if you are, how did the rest of the song go for you

So I look out at the stars just like me
And throw caution to every warning sign
What we do in this moment is defining
And we can take it on if we align
———————-
This was done before seeing Wish, but I was already in love with the reprise of This Wish. Seeing the scenario play out in the movie was very emotional.
At the time, I visualize the keyblade master’s wish or prayer in his hour of need miraculously answered across the realities. Unfortunately I forgot Riku was supposed be in Unreality as well.

Donald actually not being so good at his job, but at least he makes up for it by looking cute in his uniform.

So I have been checking the Disney Dreamlight Valley dialogue and it is actually really helpful for getting characterization for characters like Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Minnie, and even Scrooge (Not sure if Ducktales or Duck Comics Scrooge). You can literally just ask them questions and it seems very in character.
Honestly I've been finding the Mickey dialogue useful (and honestly reaffirming).
I appreciate that they specifically acknowledge that Mickey isn't always happy and does make mistakes.
Tumblr media
Also remember that post I made about how I don't think Mickey would let fame get to his head and many people agreed... Turns out we were right.
Tumblr media
It is even cool to see more about how Mickey feels about his friends like in the favorite friend question above or even in this where he talks about Donald.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It seems like Dreamlight treats the characters as if they were actors and their shorts as performances. Similar to Roger Rabbit and other appearances. (Though it seems like their personalities are generally the same)
Tumblr media
Also Three Musketeers reference:
Tumblr media
I dunno. I just wanted to share because I think it is cool to have the characters themselves tell us who they are. (At least in the interpretation of the writers, but I am sure Disney made sure they at least got the main crew accurate)
