I'd never cried before... )
It's always a little disconcerting for me to write something I would rarely read. It seems to be a disturbing trend, though. It's almost as if the less I want to write something, the more demanding it is to be written. Geez, I am so screwed up. XD
I am very happy you enjoyed this on the level it was meant. As screwed up as they both are, it's the obvious love between them that digs at my heart. Just don't ask me why I had to kill off Yachiru instead of the more obvious way around. I think I'm just more twisted than I realized. :P
No I haven't posted anything to communities outside b_c in months. I guess I'm feeling a little fragile? Or maybe lazy? Yeah definitely must be laziness. LOL!
Thanks for the fantastic beta on this. You really helped me tighten up my prose and some of your changes made me realize other mistakes I had as well. So, for all you do for me big *hugs*!
Cause you know you totally spoil me when you come back and leave such lovely comments.

... TOTALLY WORTH THE WRIST STRAIN :P

I did get it written. I want you to know though it's absolutely horrible and not the least bit funny.
Oh it's full of wank and crack, but completely devoid of humor. Now, how stupid is that? Any normal person would surely be able to write Kon with humor.
Not me apparently. *sigh* See, I really do suck at character prompts. Give me week to try and at least make it readable, before I post it for you.
*hugs*

... and I'm totally lookin' forward to it.
No worries if it's crack or wank or whatever, Kon has depths, it's just not that obvious, like when we first meet him and he talks about his 'companions' i.e. other artificial souls being killed etc... though I actually found that part amusing :P
Besides, it may not be amusing to you, but it may be to others. Humour has a lot of range after all.

After re-reading it this morning there are a couple of things I want to change as well. It won't make it any less cracky, but it might take away some of the pain. *laughs*
