FIC: "A Taste of Sunshine" (Kyou Kara Maou)

Well.

After a very long hiatus, I am posting a new fic. (wow, eh? Will wonders never cease.)

Apologies to those waiting for something more in the DC Comics vein, (that will come!) or in the Gatch vein, (that'll come too!) but here's a short story written for the inestimable

*happy sigh*. First I'd like you to know that I loved that story from the first moment I finished reading the first part of it when I discovered it. It's all the more true now that it is finished and I hope you will get other ideas to write more ConradxYuuri ^^.
Second, well... When I saw you had posted something in the ConradxYuuri community I thought : oh, this could be really good (from the way you elaborate on your comments, I figured that if you had the same writing style it would be awesome). Then I saw the picture (sorry, I know I've already seen it while browsing Conyuu fanart sites from this page : http://ayu-00.livejournal.com/17534.html#cutid1, but I did not find it again yet.) and then a certainty found its way into my heart and whey I saw the theme : hurt/comfort, my mind followed with the thought : 'so it WAS her'. (^^ Sorry if you are a man instead, but I think in this community I have a 90% chance of being right). Then as I read the first lines and knew I was right I just could think of the situation enfolding. Thank you for finishing it ! Thank you for posting here ! Thank you for writing !

Great! Thanks again for going to the effort of finding the image! It really is a nice and dramatic piece of art, isn't it? (wish I knew how to thank - and credit - the artist.) I love art best that tells a story, and this one does do that, all right! :-)

Maybe you can credit the artist by linking to the site : http://kimamani.k-server.org/maruma/maruxtop.htm ... Saddly I don't understand written Japanese well enough to deciffer the name of the author anywhere...

I'm glad to hear you have other ideas ^^. I agree with you as well : finding time to write them is the difficult part ^^.

I have to thank you again! I zipped over to the site you linked, and realized that this wasn't at all the page from which I'd drawn the piece of art that helped inspire me. (not sure where I first saw it, but it wasn't here.) Which means that you pointed me to a whole new whack of gorgeous Japanese fanart of which I'd previously been unaware. A couple really struck me, especially the ones of Conrad and Yuuri that show a bit of their history, and the one of Julia hugging Yuuri is so sweet. So, thanks very much! :-)

:) For the one with Julia hugging Yuuri I see... but which ones about history do you speak about ?

Oh, hmm, I'll have to go take a closer look to pick out which ones made me think there was a backstory within the art, but there were a couple that definitely oozed their rich relationship right off the page. (er, screen.)

Oddly enough, I cannot see the actual piece of art that had originally inspired me, and that I put in my icon with the fic, yet there's one that looks like a companion piece. Hmmm.

I love seeing these. THanks so much for sharing the link! Art is just so motivational, isn't it? :-)

Hi there, Lilyhaydee! :-) So it WAS you who was the commentator and encourager over at that old Kink Meme! And yes, it was me who was the anon author of the h/c drabble. Identities revealed!

I had suspected such was the case from one of the remarks you made, and I was very grateful to you then for what you said, and even more grateful to you now for your wonderful feedback, which I highly, highly appreciate. :-) I've enjoyed your Conyuu KKM stories very much, as you know, and so I'm delighted you liked this! (I was rather nervous about my first story in this fandom, actually.)

As for other ideas for Conrad and Yuri, um, yes, actually, I have a small whack of them. KKM really hit my Muse, I must happily confess. It's just finding time to write them out that is the daunting task, as my RL is often crazy-busy, I'm afraid.

Thank you so much for finding the link to that actual piece of fanart! (I couldn't remember for the life of me where I'd found it, I'd just saved it months ago because it struck me.) Now if anyone's curious they can check it out for themselves with a bigger picture! Yay, you!!! ^_^

Oh, yes, good, logical deduction. I don't mind being mistaken for male, (and with a username like mine it often happens) but I'm in fact a she-wolf.

I don't know whoever requested that original h/c request, but when I wanted to write a birthday fic for Jen, the request struck me, and I really ought to thank him or her. There's something about Conrad injured and Yuri's expression when he's watching him that melted me, and inspired me to try this.

Thank you for thanking me! I'm really glad I finally posted something here, to be honest. And thank YOU for feedbacking!!! You made me do a bit of a 4-step. ;-)

Looking forward to more of your own fics! Cheers!

Pax, Dancing Wolf :-)
