Strength, to Protect What Matters

Title is taken straight from Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance (see screenshot). Riku also says something very similar to this when we see him as a child in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep. Something about wanting to be strong in order to protect the things he cares about, like his friends.

...You know, I feel like Sora spends quite a lot of of time asleep in the games, and Riku often ends up being tasked with looking after him (or, more accurately, taking it upon himself to do so). lol

Despite my lack of fan art for these two, Riku and Sora are my all-time OTP, y'all, as a couple or even only as friends... in which case I guess the correct term would be brOTP? Either way, they are my favorite.
