because donald duck telling sora to keep smiling and not show any sadness probably did fuck him up idk how hard is it to understand when soras issues come from the fact hes not honest about his emotions
Also it’s insane to me that people blame DONALD FUCKING DUCK for Sora’s self confidence issues and not idk RIKU AND THE OTHER ISLAND KIDS???? The competitions, the lines of the other kids glazing Riku and comparing Sora to him? Tidus, you little snot. Sora’s dismay when he loses?
