Considering the treatment Tezuka's family sometimes gets in fanfiction, this is very much needed. =)

[aiwritingfic]

Do I want to know about the treatment? O_o
*snuggles* Thank you. ♥

[dropsofgleam]

No, you don't. *shields you*

*snugs back* You're so welcome. Tezuka's family is FTW and they need so much love.

Cute, I loved the interaction between the two.

[aiwritingfic]

Thank you! There isn't enough fic out there about Tezuka and his family. I'm glad you enjoyed it. ♥

I was doodling last night, and I couldn't get this fic out of my head, so I sketched a quick fanart.

[aiwritingfic]

O_o Oh my. O_o THANK YOU. ♥

I love this for being simple and philosophic and powerful all at once, just like the song by the same title. And this Tezuka...I want to ruffle his hair, too. ♥

[aiwritingfic]

The title is admittedly cheesy, but everything else I could think of at 2am was far worse (readerofasaph nixed the incredibly headdesk-worthy "Why Men Climb Mountains", for one thing). So The Sound Of Music won in the end. And thank you! ♥ I love child!Tezuka more than I should.

Aww. This is cute. And I love the "He doesn't like high places?" bit- Tezuka sounds so innocent there. *hugs him*

[aiwritingfic]

I enjoy writing child!Tezuka more than I should. *sheepish* and hearts* Thank you for reading and for commenting, sweetheart. ♥ *snuggles

I really, really like your Kuniharu. It's unusual to see him written with this much thought. It makes me wonder a little how differently Kunimitsu's grandfather would have handled a similar situation. I think you capture the feeling of Kunimitsu as a child in this one.

You can't run. You can only fight him. I think this possibly says something about Kunimitsu's approach to life. I love how you slotted the philosophy in there while making me look for things.

It was based on the 40.5 profile of Tezuka, where his motto is "The enemy is within you." That poked me into the whole him-and-his-dad thing, because my headcanon says that Tezuka's father taught him to climb mountains. ♥ I'm so very glad you liked it. ♥
