Here are three more paragraphs, hope it does the job.
For a long time, Mickey’s views on good and evil were fairly black and white, except when it came to people he personally knew, such as Pete. As a result, he was under the impression that anyone who used light was good, and anyone who used darkness was evil. But with his time spent alongside Riku, those views began to change, as he saw someone who was clearly a good kid use the darkness without becoming corrupted any further. This didn’t come as a gigantic or unwelcome shock – as a loving person, he welcomed the idea of change, and encouraged Riku to follow his own path to dawn. Thanks to this, he became a firm believer in second changes for those he knows little about. He’s even come to worry about those who have deeply wronged him, such as Maleficent (Who threatened his home and wife at least twice!). Ultimately, he would rather that all bad guys turned good instead of having to fight and defeat them. As much as he enjoys a fun fight and adventure, he knows peace would be the best gift of all.
Once Mickey became king, he became fiercely independent, thinking he could do things all by himself. As a result, he wound up getting into a lot of trouble, especially during his apprenticeship under Master Yensid. It wasn’t that he was selfish, but he didn’t want anyone else to get hurt – and he happened to be very headstrong in his beliefs. So time and time again he’d leave his kingdom when he thought he could handle it by himself, and left vague, small details for those he actually trusted. Over the course of the story, Mickey saw that his keeping secrets (such as not telling Sora what happened to Riku in 2) and continuing to act on his own was actually hurting as many people as he was saving. He had to remember the importance of teamwork, and by Dream Drop Distance, going to Yensid and staying around the Mark of Mastery Exam, he was shown it was okay to still ask others for help and to work alongside his friends.
Mickey also has a deep, instant love for those he first meets – a sort of “a person’s a person no matter how small” mentality, as shown in Coded. Though Data-Sora and the others were just made out of code, he was very concerned when he learned they would lose their memories. He also tends to trust people automatically, and even though people have abused this trust (Such as Xehanort) he still is willing to trust people he has only just met. He knows not all people are good, but he’s happier to believe that most people are, and it’s been near impossible to kill his faith in humanity. Good will ultimately triumph, even if it means using unusual means to do it, such as Darkness or becoming allies with enemies, like Axel. But he’s eager to use these new ways, and enjoys learning how to use these new ways to his advantage.
