So, I wanted to do this! The theme-words would be italicized and bold...and my AN's shall be centered from now on! 8D
Beginning...
...is set in Land of Departure, after Ven woke up.
Dream...
...is set in Land of Departure.
This was just a random, AU scene that isn't so AU.
Wave...
...is set in Destiny Islands.
This technically did happen, but the scene was removed in favor of the one in Keyblade Graveyard, I guess.
Reflection...
...is set in Land of Departure and is like Dream, didn't really happen but not AU,
and...
Pure...
...is set in Radiant Garden.
Obviously after Ven met Aeleus and Dilan...then ran away.

Beginning
"Terra," Ven pouted. "Just one more, please?"
Terra, seeing the look on his face, sighed and propped the book on his knee, which was brought to his chest as Ven clung to his arm like a child. He had just woken up and he was acting like a 5 year old. A second childhood. It was to think about it.
Shaking all thoughts aside (Ven was distracting him so), he took in a deep breath and began reading from the story book like a father would to his child.
"In the beginning..."
Ven had the happiest expression.
Dream
Ven had a peculiar dream.
He dreamt Terra had walked into his room, kiss his forehead, his nose, and took exceptionally long on the lips. Then he whispered the words "I love you" and left.
He was really, really disturbed by this. He disregarded it and pushed it aside, but it was quite hard. It scarred him a bit.
Eventually, Ven told Terra about this (a month later), and Terra sighed, patted his shoulder, and gave his winning smile that never really won anybody.
"I don't love you, Ven."
Ven wasn't convinced, because Terra seemed to be lying.
Wave
The beach in Destiny Islands was so pretty. Especially at sunset. It warmed Ven and his heart. It eased his thoughts and wiped all his troubles away.
But today...wasn't such a good day to be warm. The warmth was cold.
"We're 'friends'..." Ven emphasized the word, "therefore, I wanted to ask something."
Aqua looked at him, pained. She wanted to hug him, but she already tried that—he just shook her off.
"Erase me." And he had the most painful look.
She didn't need to say anything. The waves were already begging Ven to not think such things.
Reflection
Ven was anything but conceited. If you made an addition equation with the name "Ven" and the word "conceited" as addends, the sum would be a syntax error.
He couldn't stare at his reflection because whenever he looks, he remembers how he wishes he saw Terra instead, not him.
As if on cue, he heard his two friends' voices.
"Cut it out, Terra!"
"No way, Aqua."
And Aqua started laughing. She was being tickled, no doubt. Ven nearly let a lone tear fall.
Love. In a group of three, it hurt the one not feeling it.
Pure
Even watched Ven run away, chasing the Unversed. A Keyblade Master...or Wielder, in the least. Even knew such things but never shared them, well, other than Ienzo.
Peculiar. He normally had a sixth sense for darkness, but he sensed no amount of darkness—and he could sense any darkness, no matter how small.
His heart was stripped clean of darkness.
Even then took pleasure into the mere feeling he would cross paths with him again, perhaps in another lifetime, perhaps later.
Would he still have the same pure heart, though? Even decided to leave things be and returned to the castle.
