Warnings: Yay, happy! Um, the horrors of commercials, and reincarnation. Ignore all grammar errors.
Let's assume that we all know what the Organization members look like, too.

Dragonfly?
In which Axel thinks he was a dragon, and can't decide if Riku was a fairy, or pixie.

"I think I used to be a dragon."
Riku looked up from his post on the sofa, dutifully ignoring the ads passing by on the large television screen. The "OUR potion fountain delivers streams of freshly brewed elixir!" was hard to ignore – as most commercials are.
"…Okay – sorry, what were you saying?"
Axel grinned from his spot on the armrest. "You know, blows fire, flies around and terrifies people all day? A dragon!"
"You're HUMAN, Axel. At least…" Riku traced his eyes on Axel from head to toe; he made sure to be obvious. "I always thought so."
His lover rolled his eyes, and jumped off his perch to land in front of the infomercial advertising Wonderland-imported toothpaste. He spread his arms wide, dramatic. "Not right now, I mean I'm a reincarnation. You know, some people believe in that-"
Axel was apparently not in the mood. Drat. "I know what reincarnation means, you twit. What brought this up?"
"Vexen brought it up the other day. He says that Marluxia was a flower." Axel snickered. "Poor guy – no wonder he smells like lilacs wherever he goes…" He frowned. "Or maybe that's on purpose."
Riku let out a snort, picturing the pink-haired member of their odd circle. "Remind me to ask him next time. Then again, the pink's natural…"
"Yeah, but not all flowers are pink. Anyway," Axel stretched, plopping down next to Riku, making the seat bounce. "I figured that besides, what, dinosaurs? Nothing makes fire as well as dragons."
"Those aren't real –"
"And they could have been real in the past. I mean, they have those newly discovered Mush's or whatever, and –"
"They aren't called Mush –"
"I mean, there are no bears that breathe fire –"
Riku cut in. "Maybe you were a firefly," he grinned.
Axel groaned, hitting his boyfriend's arm good-naturedly. "That was lame, even for you." Although he did like fireflies…
"Haha, I was with Selphie the other day. She mentioned going down to the river and watching them this week. Tidus seemed pretty happy about it."
"Tidus was probably a lion. Or a lion cub, I think."
"He seems more of a
"Does he?" Axel took a moment to ponder that. "Maybe. What about Selphie?"
"She seems very…flamingo, to me." A pause. "Or maybe a unicorn.
The redhead snickered. "That's perfect. Who said we had to stick with real animals?" Hint. Hint. "So I could have been a dragon."
Riku laughed. "Great, so I'm going out with a dragon?"
"In this life anyway. You don't seem dragon enough to have been one before," Axel teased.
"Dragon enough?"
"Yeah, you're more sparkly. …Like a pixie or something. What was that movie called? Peter Pan?"
"I was not a pix –"
"Or maybe a fairy. One of those who flutter around and grant people wishes. Or maybe cast spells on evil no-gooders and collect pretty things."
Riku's eye twitched. "You think I used be a fairy?!"
"Yeah," Axel continued, unfazed. "So you were the fairy, and I was a dragon, and we met 'cause you couldn't carry a shiny key to your nest, so I did it for you."
"We met 'cause of a key?" Riku asked, disbelief in his voice.
Axel nodded, looking pleased.

Mush: Yes, sad reference to Mushu, that fire dragon in Mulan. Did he have a species…or was he just a ancestor/protect dragon…dude?
Chaos if bears breathed fire, seriously.
