Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories

 * "Don't sound so happy to see me, Sora. Let me know if I'm getting in the way of something more important." — upon meeting Sora.
 * "But not anymore, right? Now it's Naminé this, Naminé that. You don't care about me any more than you care about how Naminé feels." — talking to Sora.
 * "Since when have you cared about me? Naminé's not the only one who's sick of you." — before fighting Sora.
 * "You're the one forgetting. I told YOU to take care of her. At Kingdom Hearts — when we closed the door to darkness. Give it up, Sora. I'm not going back to the islands, and you're not changing my mind." — talking about to Sora about Naminé.
 * "Go ahead and try." — before fighting Sora for the second time.
 * "Hmph, you probably forgot. It never mattered to you how I felt!" — before running off.
 * "Free? I'm protecting Naminé from you because it's what MY heart tells me to do. I promised her... I promised Naminé I'd keep her safe." — talking to Sora about his motives.
 * "There was a meteor shower one night when she and I were little...Naminé got scared and said, "What if a shooting star hits the islands?" So I told her, "If a shooting star comes this way, I'll protect you" And then —" — talking to Sora about his promise to Naminé.
 * "That's a fake. I've got the real one right here!" — before revealing his charm to Sora.
 * "I'll teach YOU to make stuff up!" — upon battling Sora for the third time.
 * "Let ME explain this. Plain and simple. Your memory is a train wreck. You're not the one who's meant to protect Naminé — I AM. But you and your messed up memories always get in the way!" — before battling Sora for the last time.
 * "You're through, you fake!" — before Naminé stops him.
 * "What did I ever have? My body and heart are fake. But there's one thing you can't take from me anyway... even if it is a lie! I will protect Naminé. Phantom promise or not, it's MY promise!" — before Sora battles Marluxia.
 * " I'm not Riku. I'm fake. I can't remember when I was created, or why... All I've got left is you and Naminé. But those memories aren't real..." — explaining how he is not the real Riku to Sora..
 * "Sora, you're a good person. I don't have to be real to see how real your feelings are. That's good enough for me." — before vanishing.

Reverse/Rebirth

 * "I bet it's not every day you meet your twin. Too shocked to speak? This should come as a relief, then: I'm a replica of you that Vexen made." — upon meeting Riku.
 * "You ARE a coward. You're afraid of the dark! The darkness inside you scares you witless." — talking to Riku.
 * "But I'M different. I embrace the darkness. I can make it do whatever I want. In other words... I can wipe the floor with you!" — before battling Riku.
 * "So now the coward is playing tough guy. That's cute. See you next time, Real Thing. Try not to miss me." — before running off.
 * "You mean that Sora kid. He's here in the castle, I hear. Want me to take care of him?" — talking to Vexen about Sora.
 * "I'll show YOU hurt!" — before Larxene attacks him.
 * ""I'm me", he says. It must be nice, being real. A fake like me could never get away with saying that. That's right, I'm a phony! The way I look, the way I feel, everything!" — talking to Riku.
 * "I thought by finding some new strength I could be someone, someone who's not you! But nothing changes... I'm still just empty! Everything about me is borrowed. As long as you're around, I'll never be anything better than a shadow!" — before battling Riku for the last time.
 * "Heh... How original. Oh, well." — before vanishing.

Sora's Story

 * "Not happy to see me? Lemme know if I'm getting in the way---ya know, of something that's more important."
 * "Spare the excuses. I bet that you had all but forgotten about me."
 * "But you're not anymore, right? Now it's only Naminé that you're looking for. You don't care about me. Just like you never cared... ...at all about her feelings."
 * "I knew it. Never even gave it a thought, did you? Just cuz you want to see Naminé---sorry---doesn't go both ways. Tell ya the truth, Naminé doesn't even want to look at your face."
 * "You should ask your memories...why Naminé disappeared from the islands. Remember that, and you'd know."
 * "Go home, Sora. I'll care for Naminé. Anyone who goes near her... goes through me!!!"
 * "Please, Sora. Since when have you ever cared about me? Naminé's not the only one who's sick of looking at you. So am I!"
 * "Take the hint... I told you to go home."
 * "I don't remember ever asking you to rescue me."
 * "YOU'RE the one who forgot. I told you at Kingdom Hearts when we closed the door... 'Take care of Kairi.'"
 * "Give it up. I'm not going back to the islands---for anything."
 * "You can have those losers. Already forgot 'em. What about you, Sora? Do you actually remember what they all look like?"
 * "Don't feel bad. That's what this castle does to you---after a while. It's good. You forget all the useless stuff and remember for the first time what really matters. I remembered it, Sora. I now know the one thing that is most important to me. Protecting Naminé. Nothing else matters---not a thing."
 * "Hmph. Too bad, Sora. You can fight me all you want, but I still won't remember a thing."
 * "Together---right. So like you... ...Sora---you're always trying to worm your way into my heart!"
 * "You forgot that, too? You never cared. It never mattered to you!"
 * "You'll hurt Naminé if you go further."
 * "It doesn't matter what happens to him. I'm protecting Naminé from you. That's what's in my heart. Sora, I made a promise to Naminé. I promised to... keep her safe."
 * "There was a meteor shower...this one night when she and I were little... Naminé got scared and said, 'What if a shooting star hits the islands?' So I told her: 'If a shooting star comes this way, I will protect you!'"
 * "Don't lie! You weren't the one there that night!"
 * "Tell me... Where did you get that?"
 * "Sora...good try. That must be a fake. I've got the real one right here!"
 * "Fakes should be DESTROYED!!!"
 * "Let ME explain this. Plain and simple. Your memory is a train wreck. You're not the one who's meant to protect Naminé. It's supposed to be me! But you and your messed-up memories are always in the way, Sora!"
 * "Want some more?"
 * "Looks like I win. You are through!!!"

Reverse/Rebirth

 * "Surprised? I guess you should be. After all, I look just like you."
 * "I'll tell you what I am. I'm an exact replica of you that Vexen made from your data."
 * "Not a fake! I don't care if you're "real", you're not better! We share the same body and the same talents, but there is one easy way to tell us apart though. Unlike you, I fear nothing."
 * "It's nice having darkness on my side. You are SO missing out. How can you be scared of something that can be so thrilling?"
 * "I thought by finding some new strength, I could finally be someone...Someone who is not at all you! But... nothing changes... I'm still just empty! Everything about me is borrowed. As long as you're around, I'll never be more than a shadow!"
 * "A faithful replica until the very end. That's... okay."

 * "I knew it. It's a replica. A soon-to-be-empty vessel. I've been waiting for a chance like this." — defeating Dark Riku.
 * "No. The world already has you. There's someone else who needs the replica more. You know who I mean." — explaining that Naminé needs the replica.

Dark Riku

 * "I'd say that was our finest hour." — confronting Riku.
