I think I managed to sleep a single hour, and maybe even counting it as a whole hour is an exaggeration. I swear I tried.

Nothing like sweet old Sleep Deprivation. I'll probably be watching the pretty colors in the ceiling tonight if I'm unable to sleep again, though. Fucking insomnia.

In other news, I was thoroughly topped by allira_dream to watch Blood+.

"What am I doing here?"

Alfred's feet were unsteady and cold as he stood in what looked like an altar, but his voice was firm with the same old commanding tone that once brought other nations to their knees. He looked around. The place was unfamiliar.

"Welcome". A boy stepped forward, tattoos glowing on his skin. "From now on, I'm your master. You may call me Shura."

"I don't belong to anyone!" He replied, shocked, "and you should not be able summon me like this. I'm a sentient concept, separate and way bigger than you or--"

"There has been people who has worshiped you as a god." Shura interrupted softly. "A false god, as every avatar you'll find roaming this place. That's enough for the Cathedral of Shadows to acknowledge you, and I can call you forth, or fuse you away if you decide to be uncooperative."

Alfred inhaled, exhaled, and made the question he didn't want to ask.

"... And the rest of them? Where is the people?"

"Gone. This is the Vortex World."

He knew it was true. He couldn't reach into the consciousness of the humans that once were his nation, and so the Demi-Fiend's words stung all the worse. Damn. He knew he had to bear it like a man, act like the hero he was...

For the very first time, Alfred felt absolutely alone.

ILU SO HARD

Seriously, this was...OMG, EPIC. The characterizations, the reactions, Alfred's reaction to Shura, and Shura's just not backing down--Oh mah lawd, you have reduced me to goo woman. Pure, fangirl goo. Though, I want to crawl in there and just hug the ever LIFE out of poor Alfred...if only we could summon countries--woe.

Yaaaaaay, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :DDDDDDDD I wasn't expecting that kind of prompt, but sure it was fun to write! It's good to hear you liked the way I worked it. *Hugs the goo-you*

I'll try to get your second prompt ready soon, 'kay? :D

[legit]

Oh no worries, take your time! I'm just ecstatic you're doing it also--I felt really selfish asking for two...:/
