''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3583327/1/The_Violet_Room The Violet Room]]'' is a completed ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' AlternateUniverseFic by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/382111/Sarehptar Sarehptar]].

The story centers on Ienzo Amaryllis, a patient in the psychiatric ward of Rufus Memorial Hospital, and Myde Cistern, a new intern to the the ward. Ienzo spends his days writing on the walls of his hospital room, but the longer Myde spends around him, the more familiar Ienzo's story of "Demyx", "Zexion", and "Organization XIII" seems to be. As Myde and Ienzo remember who they were, they struggle to find their place in a world that no longer remembers them.

Notable for excellent characterization and masterful writing, the story ranges from very dark to comedic depending on the scene. The story contains many characters from the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series, as well as characters from ''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967'', ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}}'', and many more.

!!This fanfic contains examples of:
* TheBackwardsR: Shows up with many other non-English characters in the titles.
* BatmanGambit[=/=]ZanyScheme: Ienzo's plan to steal the Akashic Record from Yen Sid, involving 47 steps which range from sticking chewing gum in a door to instigating a riot. [[spoiler:It works.]]
* BloodierAndGorier: Chapter 10 features [[spoiler:DeathOfAThousandCuts, HighPressureBlood, {{Eldritch Abomination}}s, and a character being EatenAlive then DrivenToSuicide.]] Turns out, they're mostly [[spoiler: {{Hallucinations}}]], but that doesn't stop [[spoiler:the characters from thinking they're real]].
* CheshireCatGrin: Fittingly, Chester Carrol.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Myde. [[spoiler:Or, more specifically, Demyx.]]
* DarkAndTroubledPast:
** Ienzo [[spoiler:killed his own father during a massive FreakOut after losing his emotions, leading to him pleading insanity to avoid prison time and being locked in the mental hospital for the next ten years]].
** Cloud [[spoiler:was subject to illegal human experimentation at the hands of none other than Sephiroth]]. And that's just scratching the tip of the iceberg - not that he gives much more detail than that.
* DeadpanSnarker: Ienzo, especially to Myde.
* DoomedByCanon: Considering he's an orphan in ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsBirthBySleep'', [[spoiler:it's obvious Ienzo's parents won't survive the TroubledBackstoryFlashback]].
* DreamingOfTimesGoneBy: Ienzo's [[spoiler:attempt at using the Darkness knocks him in a coma-like dream that flashes back to his original life]]. Overlaps with FlashbackNightmare.
* FakingTheDead: Overlapping with NoOneCouldSurviveThat - [[spoiler:Rufus Shinra is still alive despite being burned alive in an undisclosed incident. The general public believes he's dead, but there's a rumour he's still alive, wrapped up like a mummy due to how disfigured he is - which turns out to be true]].
%%* FascinatingEyebrow: Ienzo.
* FloatingWater: In chapter 7, [[spoiler:Myde causes this to happen by using his powers until he's caught.]]
* FreakOut: [[spoiler:Ienzo had one as a child, after remembering he was a Nobody.]]
* FrivolousSummoning: Myde comes across a stand where some kids sell handmade bracelets and stuff in exchange for doing something scary. After thinking about it, he decides to summon one of his [[TranshumanAbomination Dancer Nobodies]] and has it fetch a bracelet. After they get over their initial shock, the kids LOVE it. Later on he orders them to carry some books.
* GenkiGirl: Yuffie, who is also Myde's best friend.
* TheGhost: An example that's acknowledged InUniverse as the [[spoiler:Sora phenomenon]]. According to Aerith, literally ''everyone'' in the yard feels some kind of connection to [[spoiler:Sora]], even though there's no proof [[spoiler:he's]] real - as far as anyone can tell. Somehow everyone just feels and is impacted by [[spoiler:his]] presence (or lack of thereof).
* GratuitousItalian: The chapter titles are in Italian, even though none of the characters speak it.
%%* HeroicBastard: [[spoiler:Myde is one.]]
* HeroicBSOD: Referenced in chapter 9.
-->It was a good thing Myde's brain was still organic matter and not fractals or data conversion or whatever the hell it was the Akashic Record had been talking about, because this was certainly a ''Does Not Compute'' moment. Mainframes crashing.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: When Myde's angsting, this is the general reason for it.
* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Ienzo, especially when he shows jealousy over [[spoiler:Myde having control over his powers when Ienzo's only (possibly) opened a portal]].
* ImportantHaircut: Myde gets one in chapter 9 [[spoiler:to illustrate the fact that he is changing back into Demyx.]] No one really notices [[spoiler:until he gets home and his mom freaks out]].
* InsanityDefense: Used by Ienzo when [[spoiler:he's tried for attempted manslaughter against his father.]] It's the reason he's currently institutionalized.
* TheIntern: Myde at Rufus Memorial Hospital.
* LaughingMad: Ienzo, after he [[spoiler:opens a dark portal.]]
* LiteraryAllusionTitle: From Creator/EdgarAllanPoe's "Literature/TheMasqueOfTheRedDeath."
* MakingASplash: Demyx when he was originally alive. [[spoiler:And Myde as well, following chapter 7.]]
* MeaningfulName: The main characters' last names. Amaryllis is a flower symbolizing beauty, pride, and determination, and a cistern is a tank for catching and holding rainwater.
* NaiveNewcomer: As TheIntern, Myde is this to the hospital, but he (mostly) learns how things are a few chapters in.
* NoodleIncident: Cloud once drove Fenrir (his motorcycle) over a ''skyscraper''. In THIS life, where there's supposedly nothing magical or sci-fi going on.
* ReferenceOverdosed: On top of literary references in every chapter and the usual Disney shout outs, things like {{Website/Neopets}}, ''Film/FightClub'', and ''Franchise/SilentHill'' are also mentioned.
* RoomFullOfCrazy: The titular violet room. Ienzo has written his life story and theories on the walls.
* TheSchizophreniaConspiracy: Averted, Kairi is stated to have Catatonic Schizophrenia. [[spoiler:Possibly irrelevant, as Kairi is hinted to not have schizophrenia in the first place, but is instead in telepathetic contact with Sora.]]
* TheSlacker: Hilariously, Ienzo, despite having a doctorate and at least two college degrees.
* TalkativeLoon: Chester Carroll.
* ThoroughlyMistakenIdentity: What Aerith believes Ienzo's belief of Myde being Demyx is. Subverted, as Ienzo's totally correct in his assumption.
* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: Multiple characters in chapter 10.
* TomatoInTheMirror: A twist on the usual trope: the readers are aware of said "tomato" from the start. Instead, it is Ienzo's and Myde's struggles to deal with the fact that [[spoiler:they're still Nobodies]] that fuels much of the plot.
* TroubledFetalPosition: Ienzo at one point in chapter 7.
* UnspokenPlanGuarantee: The plan Ienzo thinks up to get the Akashic Record.
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Played straight and lampshaded with Ienzo in chapter 10.
