List of Kingdom Hearts headcanons that no one asked for, but I want to talk about.
Demyx-
He’s from Atlantica
(Honestly, where else would he be from?)
His name is Myde because I think it fits him better than Dyme
Though him being a mythical creature does make Emyd or Edym a possibility
But I like Myde better
I find the somewhat semi-canon fact that Hercules and Ariel are distant cousins amusing, so Triton and Ariel’s line is descended from Poseidon.
On that note, and using Myde’s status as basically a Final Fantasy character in comparison to Ariel’s Disney status, Myde is a descendent of Leviathan
He’s somewhere between a mermaid, a siren, and a sea serpent. He looks almost like a normal mermaid… but there’s something slightly different. It’s pretty much impossible to tell what.
But he holds himself differently, and in certain lighting his eyes become slitted, and, if you look just right, you can see that his scales aren’t limited to just his tail.
He’s an adventurer
Every world with an ocean is connected to all other worlds with an ocean.
The ocean is pretty much exactly the same as the sky.
The worlds share one sky, one ocean, one destiny
He loves exploring them all and seeing new sights.
He just wasn’t always cautious enough
He was on the wrong world at the wrong time, and couldn’t fight the darkness eating the world
So that’s how Demyx came into being
He’s also really super powerful.
The Sitar is just for show to make everyone underestimate him. He doesn’t need it at all to do any of his magic. And his magic is a lot more powerful than he ever showed.
Just
Not more powerful than the whole Organization combined.
He joined because Xemnas and Xigbar stumbled over him wandering around the Realm of Darkness and told him that he could either join them, or be considered their enemy.
He could definitely feel how strong Mr. Destroyer-of-the-Universe was, and decided that caution was the better part of valor, and agreed to join up.
(Sometimes he wondered if maybe he should have risked it. Too late now, the rest of the Org. knew him.)
He wasn’t sure how to feel about the other members.
Yes feel.
He wasn’t dumb enough to fall for Xemnas’ BS
The heart was a very large and vital part of certain types of magic.
Magic was his specialty.
But caution was the better part of valor, so he kept his mouth shut.
When Saix sent him on that suicide mission
Because that’s exactly what it was and they all knew it
He decided that being killed by the keykid would probably hurt less than being killed by Saix or Xemnas and accepted the mission with as much grace as his act would let him
He was tempted, a couple of times, to actually put some effort into beating Sora just to see their reactions when he succeeded the mission.
But he decided that it really wouldn’t be worth the trouble it would cause.
So he held himself back and decided to see where his magic would take him.
It was sure to be interesting, at least.
