[Soul Eater/Yami no Matsuei] "Godfather Death Beneath a Blood-Red Moon" (PG-13)

[mtxref_fic]

Author's Note: This is a rewrite of another fic which I found in a journal full of unfinished fragments. I've speculated that Stein and Muraki might be brothers by the same mother, and it tickled me that they might even be... Well, I'll let the story speak for itself. Set well before either anime. Rated for supernatural weirdness.

Ah, spooky! Death showing up like that and all.

I thought it was really good - how this story seemed to represent so many classic fairytales elements without making them seem overdone. The foreshadowing of the births with the weather, the unexpected second child who is rather doomed, the anthropomorphism of Death... good job!
