Post KH3 SoRiku romance. Hurt/Comfort, angst, fluff, lore, and action. Destiny trio centric.
- Complete version on AO3 -
After waking up in a strange city, Sora has wandered its streets alone for months searching for a way out, whilst tormented by Heartless and stalked by a stranger in a black coat. When he is attacked and gravely wounded, Kairi and Riku arrive just in time to save him and get him to safety.
However, he has returned with more than just physical wounds. With his body, heart, and spirit all severely damaged, and torturous memories of Rage still haunting him, the road to recovery will be a long and painful one.
His many friends want to be there to help him through it though, even in the times he doesn't want them to be, and when he doesn't think he deserves it. Above all else, Riku and Kairi will always be at his side, even while one must desperately try to hold back his feelings.
Most main characters feature, all the trios, Twilight town gang, everyone in Radiant Garden etc.
