Birth by Sleep - Ventus - King Of Flashbacks

This was probably the hardest recap to name as there is such DRAMA and LOTS OF FUN in this recap. Also, a lot of the jokes are callbacks now. Mr. Wookeys makes a triumphant return as does Snuggle Time. There's also a lot of jokes related to other media-type things. Just glancing I caught Pokemon, Batman, Avatar: The Last Airbender... Thunderdome? At least two song references... But yes, one of my favorite moments from all of the recaps is in this one.

  • Guys I’m so excited you don’t even know!
  • I’m like… going to puke all over my laptop/PSP outta excitement… YOU DON’T EVEN UNDERSTAND!
  • We’re back in Radiant Garden!
  • Ven’s standing alone and… spots Scrooge. AND MICKEY!
  • Seriously what is up with Scrooge? Did the developers just put him in there for shits and giggles?
  • Anyhoo: AFTER THAT MOUSE!
  • So we finally catch up with… wait no.
  • OH HI GUYS!
  • It’s a Dilan (Xaldin) and an Aeleus (Lexaeus). HI THERE!
  • The castle is closed?
  • B-But Mickey totally came this way. NOT FAIR GUUUYS!
  • God Dilan’s voice. Te he he he, WHAT IS THAT ACCENT?!
  • So they’re not going to let us in. Poop!
  • They’re all like “Go home before a monster uses you as a toothpick, twerp.”
  • But then… MECHA!UNVERSED’S head appears!
  • Mecha!Unversed I’ve missed you!
  • Oooh tough guys are gonna fight Mecha!Unversed’s head. This should be interesting.
  • Lols, Ven’s like “I CAN DO THIS! THIS I CAN DO! NO SERIOUSLY!” and takes off. Dilan and Aeleus make faces at each other and go after Ven. Bless.
  • Then… EVEN (Vexen) comes out and yells at them all like “GUYS WHO WILL PROTECT MY SKINNY ASS IF YOU GO RUNNING AFTER YOUNG BOYS IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS!”
  • Errr Even I so didn’t need to see you. I’m gonna have to go take a shower now after your super creepy smile.
  • …Even how do you know that Ven is “a special case.” OH GOD! GUYS! EVEN CAN READ YOUR BRAIN, NOBODY IS SAFE!
  • Aeleus still wants to go after Ven, aww you could always tell Lexaeus was a bit of a softie when he wasn’t trying to bash our heads in with a tomahawk.
  • Dilan’s a total jerk though and is like “THE CASTLE COMES FIRST, GOD GUYS HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS?”
  • Then Even sends them off to see “the Lord” aka Ansem. Then he gets to be all mysterious like “A heart devoid of any darkness? Stripped clean of it, at that… Very questionable.” NOBODY LIKES YOU EVEN, OR YOUR THINLY DISGUISED HINTS!
  • Oh jeez Mecha!Unversed is bugging Scrooge. He’s all like “YOU’RE NOT GETTING MAH MONEY YOU GIANT FLOATING HEAD MONSTER!”
  • Ven scares it off by throwing his keyblade at it.
  • Scrooge wants to repay Ven and takes forever doing so. Also: he totally knows Ven isn’t from around these parts. And neither is Scrooge, he came here with some help from Merlin.
  • Oh hey passes to Disney Town! Enough for us and “two grown-ups”. Te he he he he he.
  • Off we go again to chase down Mecha!Unversed! Awaaaaaaaaaaay!
  • Mecha!Unversed’s head floats past Merlin’s house and AGAIN we are interrupted.
  • Seriously? Seriously.
  • Ven’s like “GET INSIDE MISTER!” Well at least he has more common sense than Terra… “Your Elderness” >.>
  • Merlin’s all like “BUT YOU WANT SOMETHING, YES?!” And Ven makes a “D:” face. Magic guuuys! It’s spooky!
  • Oh we’re going to get the stupid Pooh thing again. So Terra must’ve beaten us here to Radiant Garden.
  • Off we go again!
  • Ven runs into the THUNDERDOME and sees Terra and then Aqua.
  • Mecha!Unverse combine!
  • And we’re fighting!
  • So third time around Mecha!Unversed is a breeze.
  • Again Terra, Aqua and Ven do a three hit combo and finish Mecha!Unversed off together.
  • We make a good team, yada yada: He said to… He said to take two grown-ups. :C
    Again Aqua is all like “Snuggle timez?” And Ven is all like “I SMACKED THE MASKED BOY AROUND!” And Terra is like “OH NO YOU DIDN’T! GO HOME!” Ven’s like “B-b-b-b-b-but.” And Terra is like “GO NOW! It are dangerous!” And Aqua’s like “EXPLAAAAAAAAAAIN!” And Terra’s like “>:T” And Aqua’s like “Seriously, you’re gonna get yourself in trouble.” And Ven’s like “NO, MY PRECIOUS TERRA WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING BAD. EVER.” Terra’s like “YOU’RE A SPY!” And Aqua’s like “Errr, awkward.” And Ven’s like “EVERYTHING IS BROKEN!” And Terra’s like “I am the night!” And Aqua’s like “HE’S JUST WORRIED, I’M WORRIED.” And Ven’s like “YOU’RE AWFUL! And I hate you for all time!” And Aqua’s like “Dude, seriously? You know we care about Terra and you saw him get all darkness armed.” But Ven’s like “WHO CARES ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS! WERE YOU SUPPOSED TO TAKE ME HOME?” And Aqua’s like “Seriously guys, this isn’t a big deal. Yeesh.” And Ven’s like “YOU’VE CHANGED! WE CAN NEVER HAVE SNUGGLE TIME! NOW… NOW I’M GONNA HAVE SNUGGLE TIME WITH JUST TERRA AND YOU CAN’T COME!”

  • That… is probably my favorite thing I’ve ever written.
  • Also I do firmly believe that Aqua and Ven have snuggle time. They make hot coco and read books together and Ven gets to look at all the pretty pictures. Terra doesn’t snuggle during snuggle time, for he is too manly. He does, however, listen.
  • So Ven’s running and… THERE’S A KID! Hey kiddo what’cha… oh. Being attacked by Unversed it seems.
  • Pfft it’s a baby Ienzo (Zexion). Well… he’s not really a baby. Probably a teeny-bopper.
  • Oh here’s Even to pick Ienzo out. He’s all like “This kids is a total orphan.”
  • And Ven’s like “THAT’S NICE, SEEN TERRA?” And Even’s like “Ummm, look over there? And thanks for not letting the kid snuff it. I know we’ll meet again ;D”
  • Could you be any more creepy Even? No really try.
  • Oh hey learned Reversal! Which… oddly enough is a reaction command you use on Nobodies. Hur hur hur.
  • So here’s Terra! This will have been right after his fight with Braig.
  • Ven’s all like “TAKE ME WITH YOU!” And Terra’s all like “I CAN NOT!” And Ven’s like “Whut, why?” And Terra’s like “You’ll be there when I need you.” And Ven’s like “Ur, dur.” And Terra’s like “Thanks Ven.”
  • AND OFF HE PUNTS!
  • Lols. With Terra gone Ven’s like “I NEED TO TELL AQUA!”
  • Oh hi Aqua!
  • Aqua’s like “Did you find Terra?” And Ven’s like “Yeappers! But he took off.” And Aqua’s like “Then I should go too.” Ven’s like “I CAN COME TOO, YES? We… We can have snuggle time again.” And Aqua’s like “DO AS I SAY!” And Ven’s like “WHY DOES NOBODY WANT ME ANYMORE!” And Aqua’s like “I have to keep you safe, dur.”
  • So off goes Aqua. BYE GIRL! I’ll miss you! :’C
  • FLASHBACK! Ven’s the king of flashbacks, seriously.
  • Umm… He’s play fighting with somebody. Oh it’s with Terra and Aqua’s watching.
  • Afterwords they chill out together, but Ven looks depressed. So Terra’s all like “You see all those bruises I gave to you?” And Aqua, being the more subtle care-taker type is like “They’re proof that you’re learning.” Terra gives Ven some stupid sounding advice, but hey I’m not a keyblade wielder so what do I know.
  • Terra starts to make a speech with his wooden keyblade: “In your hand, take this blade. And so long as you have the makings, then through this simply act of taking, its wielder you shall one day be made.”
  • HEY I REMEMBER THAT! That’s the speech he did with Riku!
  • Aqua’s all like “You are a dork.” And Terra’s all like “I WILL BECOME A KEYBLADE MASTER! FOR IT IS MY DREAM!” Again Aqua’s like “Ur… you’re not the only one with that dream.” And Terra’s like “WE ALL HAVE THE SAME DREAM! W-Why am I in capslock mode?” And then he gives Mr. Wookeys to Ven.
  • Pffft, Ven brought Mr. Wookeys with him?
  • OH MY GOD GUYS!
  • Finally the moment I have been waiting for!
  • Ven drops Mr. Wookeys and SOMEBODY stops and picks it up.
  • LEA! Ge he he he.
  • Isa (Saix) is all serious business and wants to get on with their day but Lea has a new playmate to torture, so why the hell would he want to leave now?
  • Lea’s all like “You still play with a toy sword… BABY! Now look at these!” Um… Lea those would be evil Frisbees. They are not becoming of you.
  • And Ven’s like “Urrr… no I don’t like them. Mr. Wookeys is 100000xs better. He’s like, in the top percentage of wooden keyblades.” And Lea’s like “FFFFSSFSFS! You’re jealous! And I’m Lea. Nice to meet you, JEALOUS. Got it memorized?”
  • TE HE HE HUR HUR! Though… Mister Flynn I still feel as if you’re fucking with us. STOP FUCKING WITH US!
  • Oh now we’re going to fight!
  • Aww Lea cheers Ven up enough that he’s smiling again.
  • Oh lord, Ven’s using Mr. Wookeys.
  • AND HE BEATS LEA! Whooo! WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS, WE AR THE CHAMPIONS! NOOO TIME FOR LOSING BECAUSE WEEEE ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF… Radiant Garden?
  • Pfft Lea’s pooped and wants to call it a draw. And Ven’s like “Suuuure.”
  • But Isa comes back to crash our party saying: “The only thing you drew was a big L on your forehead for “Loser”, “Lame”, “Laughable”…” Those… are actually pretty good words to sum up Lea/Axel.
  • Ven’s got a case of the giggles.
  • But Lea’s all offended now. Attempts with witty banter are… not so witty.
  • Oh ha ha ha, everybody laugh now.
  • Isa’s like “Gotta go, now! Lea get into the van!” And Lea’s like “I’ll see you again. Seeing as how we’re friends and everything now.” And then he says “Get it memorized.” And… I die a little bit on the inside.
  • Pffft then Isa makes it all better by saying “What is it with you and picking up stray puppies?” VEN AS A PUPPY IS CANNON!
  • >.> Lea’s like “I SHALL LIVE ON FOREVER IN PEOPLE’S MEMORIES!” And Isa’s like “I try to forget you every day… you may just accomplish your wish.”
  • Urrr? Isa and Lea stare up at the castle… what are they gonna do? Storm the castle?
  • Uh Ven? He has a weird liNe about how it must be nice knowing who your friends are. VEN YOU KNOW WHO YOUR FRIENDS ARE! They are named Terra and Aqua and they want what is best for you. WHICH IS NOT DEAD! And you’re gonna die if you keep acting like a shit head. Well… okay I now that’s not true but still: NOBODY LIKES A SHIT HEAD, VEN!
  • New keyblade! From Lea!
  • Excuse me while I hum “Secret Lovers” under my breath.
  • Well… that was a bit of a bust.
  • Three more worlds unlocked (one of which I always skip) and WE’RE OFF ON OUR NEXT GREAT GRAND ADVENTURE!

Chronological World Order:
Terra, Ven/Aqua
