The Heart Thief, a Kingdom Hearts fanfic


  • Sometime before this forum opened, I wrote some 3000 words for a KH fanfic before being distracted/sidetracked by something else. Vanitas-centric premises interest me the most among KH fics. There is a lot of stuff you can do or extrapolate with this guy in terms of character development, considering his background and abilities (which includes channeling emotions into eldritch creatures and being a sort of a Ventus empath). I'll probably go back to writing more for this fic at some point in the future, but FOR NOW:

    Extracting the darkness from the boy's heart should have given birth to the two pure hearts of light and darkness needed to forge the key to the Next World. As half expected, the former began to drift toward eternal sleep, the remnants of the once whole heart slipping away like sand in an hourglass.

    The latter, however, retained a smudge of light.
