AkuRoku is one of my favorite pairings.
._.
Alright, well... Some people like yaoi/shonen ai, but they don't appreciate when people diss their work. Here, look at what kitten-chan says on her webcomic, Memory Lane: IF YOU HATE YAOI DON'T COMMENT/LOOK AT/SLATE MY WORK...JUST STAY AWAY FROM IT LIKE ANY NORMAL SENSIBLE PERSON WOULD. Of course, she's aiming this at the people who look up yaoi/shonen ai just to purposely bash it, not if you accidentally look at it.
Now, I understand your predicament. I get weirded out by things I accidentally see, too, but you just have to shrug it off and move along. Yaoi and shonen ai is what those people enjoy drawing, and you have to respect that, just like how they have to respect others for drawing things that they don't enjoy seeing.
Also, in defense, most of the yaoi I come across has a mature filter. I've yet to see anything really bad that didn't have one. Of course, that's because I specifically look up 'akuroku' and not 'kingdom hearts'. Well, I'd never actually say anything bad about any particular drawing/story/etc. >>; And I'd leave it alone entirely if I could stay away. I just think it's a little too much to expect people not to voice general disapproval for the fact that they keep running into mindscarring pictures that they can't avoid, suggesting that they're disrespectful of the artist if they do. Though maybe, this has to do with the fact that I don't think all art deserves respect. I have no respect at all for anything pornographic, and think the world would be a much better place without it. (Which, I think, is part of my problem with yaoi - it seems to be geared more heavily towards that sort of thing. Granted, this just might be because I try to ignore romance in general and the yaoi things are just the most likely to forget the mature filter) As for not seeing anything bad without a mature filter... my guess is, it is a search kind of thing. Because I've seen several things I didn't want to when just looking up Axel.  As for AkuRoku... I don't have a problem with it, just the people who forget their filters and the disappointing lack of friendshipping. |

Um, I have a question . . . you see, I was uberspoilered on what happened to Marluxia and Larxene in KH: CoM (I <3 Wikipedia! XD), and now I'm getting confused. According to Wikipedia, our friends XI and XII went kaput in CoM (it ain't pretty, folks). But our KH sources tell us that ALL Org. XIII members are going to be in 385/2 Days. Now, I'm just wondering . . . how can Marluxia and Larxene be in 385/2 Days if the game is set AFTER CoM when Sora was asleep? 0_o Someone please clear me on this . . .

Well, 358/2 Days doesn't take place strictly after CoM. CoM occurs during the time period in which 358/2 Days is happening - there might have been a week or so between Roxas' creation (and his subsequent entrance into the Organization) and the events of CoM, and 358/2 Days starts immediately at the first day of Roxas' existence. So Marluxia, Larxene, and the other members who died at Castle Oblivion would show up in the main story early on.
As for the multiplayer, it's completely non-canon, so everyone's alive and able to group up in which ever ways the game allows. ^_^ |

I'm pretty sure that 358/2 Days will be set there, not at Castle Oblivion. |

A drabble is... well, it was originally intended to be a 100-word story, but ended up being used to describe any short one-shot story under 600 words. ^_^ |
