OH MAN I'm so glad you got inspired by my sleepy KH doodles, I absolutely don't mind anyone doing that. A tooth gap for Sora is so in-character, I'm glad you combined it with the crooked smile-- he definitely would have got a tooth banged out at some point playing island games with Riku and Kairi
I def consider Xion and Vanitas to be "Sortas"! (never heard that term for the Sora look-alikes but I love it haha)--- I actually drew them also! and Xion had a little tooth gap! :0 I was kinda nervous to post them on their own, especially cause they didnt quite turn out how I wanted-- but just for you I will ^-^
reblogging yours as its own post! bc everyone who followed mine should see it also. although idk how to just show yours at the top of the reblog, ive been trying for like the last 30 minutes to figure out how to make only the newest reblogs appear first. I'm only slightly better with technology than Sora lmao...
I was still awake and drawing Kingdom Hearts in the middle of a torrential thunderstorm/tornado warning at 6 am
I wanted to try tackling the differences between the Sora lookalikes. Riku is also there as his emotional support boyfriend.
Sora has a crooked smile because I say so
Roxas is Sora’s edgy doppelgänger but also looks exactly like Ventus, a completely different person who is like. Bluetooth connected to Sora’s heart /j
I headcanon that Roxas has frosted tips while Ventus is pure blond, and Roxas inherited Sora's imperfect teeth but has a shyer smile. He is not happy here unfortunately
After making a 10 minute ethnographic documentary on the “cropped mgs meme” for an anthropology course I kinda fell in love with them and wanted to make Kingdom Hearts versions
Credit to @gummi-ships for many of the background screencaps, and to Cropped mgs memes on Twitter for the memes which inspired these
@thatmaxcontent who made their own really cool version of the Sora lookalikes post emboldened me to share these designs of Vanitas and Xion that I left out ^-^
Vanitas' hair has a tiny bit of jagged swirl in it, partly to match Ventus (coming from his heart and all) but also because the heartless and unversed have those antennae things. He lowkey looks like an extra who escaped from a MCR music video tho
And Xion! I wrote their name pronunciation for non-KH mutuals. Truthfully the tooth gap for them was a happy accident that I kept because I liked it. it's an imaginary tooth
When I was designing these dresses, I found both options interesting. So I kept them as alternatives.

Valentine's day quick sketch
got sick with the flu last week so I designed AGS as side characters for Rhaco: Geckos of New Caledonia.
Genos (Satanic Leaf-tailed gecko) is the club's self-declared leader, as he is also its founder. He's a theater kid and came up with the idea of carrying around bird wings strung up like costumes to perform roles from his favorite plays (mostly Leafless).
Seflop (Giant Leaf-tailed gecko) is the club's de facto leader on account of his actual bird-killing track record. At first this was accidental, but now he has a problem and they can’t make him stop... what's his deal with property damage all of a sudden? The hair is a cape of egret feathers. They're not natural... we think.
Anjil (Frilled Leaf-tailed gecko) was roped into his best friends' club and now acts as damage control, carrying the overflow wings from their bird-killing sprees. He is on good terms with Zekk and routinely apologizes for the club's antics. He also doesn't just leave.
I only had time for AGS right now, but as for Cloud and Zack-- they run a joint tailoring shop in the gecko village (feathers, leaves, & fur fashion). Clao does mainly feathers, so he's a constant victim of his wares being raided by the AGS club.
I don't know what, but there's something about how it was specifically Penny's blades that separated Ruby from Crescent Rose here
Am I the only one who as a child erroneously assumed Axel from Kingdom Hearts was a werewolf and was supposed to turn into Red XIII/Nanaki from Final Fantasy or is that just me
