Summary
Tears dripped onto Naminé’s sketchbook and blurred the picture she’d drawn of her and Vanitas and the Riku Replica swimming together on Destiny Islands. Her tears smudged it and ruined it because it was nothing more than a borrowed memory, no, a stolen memory of Kairi’s. She’d just inserted herself and the only two other lonely shadows she could find into something that none of them could have.
She sniffed and wiped her eyes. “You don’t understand,” she said to a Riku who wasn’t here right now. “I don’t have any happy memories of my own. No moments that aren’t tainted with sadness. And I’ve lost the only friends I did make. They chose their old memories over me. They wanted their real friends back.”
And who wouldn’t? Who wouldn’t choose real memories over fake ones? Real friends over fake friends? Real hearts over a few lonely shadows?
Or: Naminé tries to cope with her loneliness by imagining she and the Riku Replica and Vanitas are all friends. To her surprise, they reach out to her. Written for the Garden of Shadows zine in 2020.

Beautiful story about Kairi embracing all of Sora, including his darkness, and helping him accept himself, too. 11/10 use of One Heart. Touching tribute to Hayden Panettiere.

Summary
Sora returns to her, impossible as that seems. It was a long and grueling road, but somehow she managed. And now, Kairi and Sora need to navigate another road, one pitted with anger and sorrow and self doubt, and hopefully find what they've been looking for by the time they reach the end.

Perfect post-canon SoKai fic with fantastic character interactions, heartwarming fluff, and Riku as the biggest, best SoKai wingman. Everything I could ask for in a SoKai fic.

Summary
On a day like any other, The Seelie King finds a mysterious maiden washed ashore.
“You haven’t asked me to dance yet, Your Majesty,” she said, her voice nearly a whisper but filled with a playfulness only a fey could possess.
With a flourish, the Seelie King leaped from his perch atop the mushroom and pulled her into a spin. “May I have this dance?”
Kairi beamed.
