1. Comfort

He wanted to tell her everything, from the way his mother had walked to what he had eaten for breakfast.

2. Kiss

Those lips, that sweet caress, they were beyond his reach.

3. Soft

Red hair brushed against his cheek.

4. Pain

To Nicolai, each rejection was a pain unto death.

5. Potatoes

Listening to his honeyed words made her mouth taste bitter.

6. Rain

Dripping wet and feeling sorry for himself he wandered Petrograd's streets.

7. Chocolate

He was not able to see her on Valentine's Day.

8. Happiness

Karin prayed in Takamagahara for herself, her companions, and for Nicolai as well.

9. Telephone

She spoke to Lenny on the phone about a man they both knew well.

10. Ears

"Will you listen to what I am trying to tell you?" she asked in frustration.

11. Name

Whenever she saw him, she could not help but call out, "Nicolai!"

12. Sensual

Her full lips and wide curves were magnets drawing in his active imagination.

13. Death

His death was real, and it hit her hard.

14. Sex

His urges were tempered by his altar boy sort of upbringing.

15. Touch

He gingerly reached his hand out towards hers and as their fingers brushed he drew it back again.

16. Weakness

He had hid his loneliness for so long.

17. Tears

Whether they came from sorrow or frustration he could not tell.

18. Speed

Time moved fast around her and he wished it would slow down.

19. Wind

"Can you hear the wind blowing through the forest?" he asked in Domremy.

20. Freedom

If he could live his life with no restraints he'd leave his master and go with her.

21. Life

She knew that was not how she must live her life.

22. Jealousy

Yuri was to prove an insurmountable obstacle.

23. Hands

He grabbed her wrist and she pushed him away.

24. Taste

A deep breath left the bitter flavor of his cologne in her mouth.

25. Devotion

She felt guilty about his attachment.

26. Forever

He wanted to be hers for all eternity.

27. Blood

His weapon was stained with Astaroth's blood, but she still kept it.

28. Sickness

Love and memory and evil intentions all gnawed at his heart.

29. Melody

"Your voice is so sweet," he practiced telling her as he sat alone at night.

30. Star

Karin had shared the light streaking across the horizon with him alone.

31. Home

They had that in common at least, both had lost their homes.

32. Confusion

He just could not understand why she would refuse.

33. Fear

"Do I love him?" she asked herself, uncertain of the answer.

34. Lightning/Thunder

The words rumbled and struck him down.

35. Bonds

They had no real connection, she scoffed, he was entirely mistaken.

36. Market

His talents were not the type you could just discover anywhere.

37. Technology

He marveled at the wonders that would let him call her up from far away- if only he really knew who he was asking the operator for.

38. Gift

The temptations he offered were quickly turned down.

39. Smile

Karin could not help but like his smile.

40. Innocence

She was sure it was an act.

41. Completion

The soul pact was his trump card, it failed and he was done.

42. Clouds

In years to come she would see his face in the purple gray fog.

43. Sky

If she could not love him, better that he surrender himself to that sky.

44. Heaven

If he had only seen her shed those tears for him.

45. Hell

For his actions, he knew what he deserved, but he still had regrets.

46. Sun

Waking nightmares filtered through her days.

47. Moon

They saw each other only in the dark of night.

48. Waves

"The sea laps against the shore in longing, like I look for you," he wrote dreamily.

49. Hair

The way he flipped his hair struck her as vain, but funny.

50. Supernova

Everything came down to that final moment and he blew it all to bits.

Author's note: As usual, I'm all over the place. But I had fun doing it!
