Just finished the last three episodes of Arcane. It was a good finale, but I think I'll need to sleep on it to really figure out how I feel about it

The cliffhanger in that last episode of Arcane was dirty. How can the writers sleep at night, making me wait another week?

I'm being abused by my sister's dog because she thinks it's dinnertime. It, in fact, is not dinnertime

On the note of fleshing out worlds, I Was going to say that a long while back... or maybe I did? I have memory issues. But basically what I wanted to say is...

For me personally it's important that it feels like the worlds matter. It's not just a place to show up and do 'Kingdom Hearts' stuff. But it's also not just a place to show up and do 'Stuff from that world'. The best way I can explain it is...

In KH3 I really liked the Toy Story world, because you set off on a completely unique adventure separate from the movies, the characters all interacted with Sora, Donald, and Goofy, and cared that they were there, and their presence had a legitimate effect on the story, and in fact the way Buzz was so suspicious of them, the fact they didn't belong in that world pretty much drove the plot.

In KH3 I really disliked the Frozen world, because it literally did not matter if you were there or not. It was just, the events of the movie happen, and meanwhile Sora, Donald, and Goofy also happen to be there and kinda sorta help Anna out with something but beyond that, the events of the movie transpire completely separate from your own story, it just happens to be in the same world while Sora chases Larxene around.

There is no point in going to a world just so that the events of the movie or other media from that world can take place while our characters do their own separate thing in the meantime.


That's why I also loved San Fransokyo. It really felt like everything that happened in that world could be used to set up a sequel.

Also, I don't get why people were suddenly concerned with interfering in the happenings of the world. Why didn't anyone call out Sora for meddling in Tarzan's story as much as he did or Alice's if it was such a big deal?
Accurate lol
Side note: interesting fact that I learned is that in a recent interview, Tetsuya Nomura, himself, admitted that the story is so hard to follow that he occasionally has to refamiliarize himself with it through YouTube videos lol
Zac was reclining in his seat, his eyes closed as he allowed the hum of the ship's engine lull him to sleep. In truth, despite how exhausted he was, having had to deal with a dogfight followed by a crash landing, followed by a collapsing world, then followed by fielding several questions from his passengers, he found sleep difficult to come by. Eventually, he gave up altogether and sat back up in his seat. He glanced at the various screens on his console, at least the ones that still worked, saw that they each displayed an error or a warning of some kind, but none of them told him they were about to crash or end up stranded between worlds, so he ignored them and turned his gaze out into the Ocean Between. He took in the countless stars, the swirling colors, and let out a sigh. "This was always your favorite view," he muttered. "I promise, I'll find you. And we'll spend as long as you want drifting, watching the stars together. Just you and me."

A moment later, one of the instruments that weren't broken on the console began to beep. He hit a button and another screen came to life, displaying the name of the world they were approaching: "Traverse Town." He sat up and took a breath, recentering himself as he began to prepare for landing. "This is your captain speaking. I know you're all enjoying your time in dreamland," he said, putting on his usual happy-go-lucky voice, "but I'm afraid I'll have to cut your naps short. We're approaching our destination, so please place your trays in the upright position, fasten your seatbelts, and prepare for landing."

The ship began to rattle as it entered the atmosphere of the world, but held together long enough to break through. Above, a dark, night sky sparkled with a blanket of stars and below lay a town bathed in the warm glow of streetlamps. He guided the ship over the rooftops until he found what he was looking for: a large, open lot, his usual landing spot not too far from the First District. Right as the ship touched down with a thud, the cockpit suddenly went dark as the Stardust Core suddenly shut down, followed by a loud *boom* as smoke began to spill out from the engine. Zac patted the console and said, "You did well, girl. I'll get you fixed up and you'll be flying again in no time, as good as new! That said..."

He turned in his seat to address his passengers while the canopy lifted open. "We're not gonna be flying anywhere until then, so you're all free to explore. Just stay out of the Second and Third Districts if you can't call a Keyblade or use magic, since those aren't exactly safe, for the moment. I'm gonna get in touch with a fellow mechanic and see if he can't give me a hand with Sigrid. Before you go, though, let me know if you'll be flying with me again so I can get enough provisions for the trip."
Zac's first stop is gonna be Cid's so he can get his ship taken care of, but after that, he take Lucian (and Taivas, if he wants) to Merlin, unless you decide to have Lucian find him on his own @Crimson Flame

I'm not sure, as far as my group is concerned. I'll have to talk about that with Bacon and Eviledd

Hey, so I heard there's a new collab for the Gummi ship crew? Any chance the pilot can get the link to that, because I feel like you guys might need him
