[fic] "Everything Changes"

[thenakedcat]

Well, since Admin kiyala wanted me to be a moderator on this community, and since she's practically begging people for IsshiKen submissions, and since I wanted to do a perspective on this pairing that I don't think has really been explored yet

Awwwwww, thank youuuuuu!

They're both such complicated, fascinating guys, in addition to being sexy dorks, and I'm glad the fic did some justice to that!

Hey, did you add something extra to this? Maybe some nutmeg, or some paprika? Because I swear it's even better than the last time I had it!

SUCH a good job with this. I'm so glad you're writing again, even if it takes while between your other obligations. I'm drawing like the wind to keep up, but there's still that white box to contend with.... XD

[thenakedcat]

You make me feel all warm and fuzzy when you say that <3<3<3

I did make a few tweaks here and there while writing-that must be what you taste. ^^

And I will wait as long as you need to fill in that white box!

This wasn't “fucking”, or “having sex”, or “making love”...it was silent screaming. It was sobbing without tears. It was trying to remember what it was like to be anything besides alone and scared.

Wah! So sweet and poignant. This was my favorite line in this story. I love the idea of the two of them finding comfort in each other. Very nicely done.

[thenakedcat]

Thank you for the R&R! (I didn't even know you were interested in this pairing!)

I'm glad you liked that line because it was hard to find the words to say that it wasn't love or sex bringing them together, it was needing to be needed again.

[laurabryannan]

Oh, I definately buy this pairing. I like to think of them possibly together while they were students.

Needed to be needed is a wonderful way to put it. It seems very IC for them to turn to each other--they have so much in common.

[thenakedcat]

I have hard time buying them together as students, since Isshin seems to have taken up human life in the first place to be with Masaki. (And because I suspect Ryuuken's upbringing would not have been particularly friendly to homosexual relationships.)

But...as tired, lonely widowers, I can see them together. Guess I'm just anti-romantic that way ^^;

It's so rare and wonderful to read fics about this pair that aren't cracky. You did the Angst!Sex really well.

[thenakedcat]

Thank you! Crack has its place in this pairing for sure, but it's certainly not the only way to write them.

Will you believe me if I say that I read everything and absolutely loved it even though the idea of this pairing makes me cringe...?

Seriously, though, I'm pretty sure *you* could make me read anything.

*remembers how to breathe*

[thenakedcat]

*Blushes and hides under a blanket.* YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO SEE THIS ONE--I DIDN'T WANT TO OFFEND YOUR SENSIBILITIES.

B-but if you DID see it, and it DIDN'T, that's even better and I'm eternally grateful!

[hidden_gems]

My sensibilities weren't too offended, it's OK. I read kiyala's fic first and (Lotus is my witness) there was some guilty squeeing going on *he he*

But this was just... I'm shocked by how much I enjoyed it.

[thenakedcat]

You are a brave woman, to step out of your comfort zone, and I glomp you for it!

*gloooomp*
