rating: PG-13
summary: Why have reverence for the dead and the gone, for the condemned and the hopeless, when nothing can help them by that point?
notes: Somewhat-based on that myth of how cherry blossoms originally had white petals, which were stained pink by the blood of corpses buried at their roots. Interpret this

I'm glad you think so. This has got to be one of my favourite pieces thus far, hehe. I know, a bit bigheaded of me, but idk, for once I managed to get to the point without dithering too much.
Poor Luxord! In my fics, he always seems to be the one who has to be confronted with all the twisted darkness of his cohorts. What with Xigbar nattering on about burying one's past (in Burial, teehee), and now Marluxia yammering on about how human bones make brilliant plant fertiliser, it's amazing how he hasn't decided to call it quits with the Organisation ahaha. I guess it works because he's probably one of the more grounded members, as opposed to, well, pretty much all of the others.
Oh, pshaw, don't say that! You write brilliantly as well! I love your drabbles honestly. ♥♥
Yess! Marluxia is alluring like a...err, rose, but several times more dangerous - all barbed thorns and poison petals. Er, yes, something like that!
♥ Thank you again~~!

LOL! So true! Now that you mention it, Luxord must be thinking his fellow Nobodies are all insane. XDDD But he's far too awesome to be swayed by something like that. So he ain't quitting. No sir. XD
Aw, thanks. :'D I try me best with them. And I'm working on improving! You are now one of the writers I put up there in my head, along with Mr Rabbitprint and uh, Ms/Mrs Sister_Coyote.
Heehee. A rose. Nice. XD
No problem! :D

; n ; I'll have to make it up to him sometime, just write something where he's not taken on this mindtrip by the others. But it's quite a hilarious contrast, haha. Maybe that's why he's not depicted that often in fanon. He's too grounded, along with Lexaeus. No quitting indeed! He's got more steel in his spine than that, for sure.
You're definitely going along very well, then! And, omgsh, that's the best thing anyone can say to me ;A; I'm a huge fan of Rabbitprint's work, though I haven't read anything by Sister_Coyote yet. You're too kind! ; u ;
Haha, yes. Am currently at a bit of a loss as to what else I can better compare him to.

Ooh, if you write something for Luxord, I'd be so excited to read it. Hmm, maybe maybe. But there's still that bit of him that feels like it can go a little, er, off. Unlike Lexaeus. Which is probably why he's so awesome, I guess. XD
Thank you! Must keep at it. Haha, me too! His work was my introduction to the fandom. Unfortunately, this meant that most other KH fics on ff.net were a slightly paler in comparison. Her works quite good too! Among other people. (And I'm not, really.)

Hehe, after watching some cutscenes, I got this idea about his Other wedged firmly in my head *u* So hopefully that'll give you something to chew on hehe x) And yes good grief. Maybe it's his assortment of piercings. He seems totally as chill as Xigbar is, only in a somewhat more...polished way.
LOL I'd agree; Magpies was the first real KH fic I read, and oh gods it blew my mind. Never actually tried reading anything on FF.net because of, um, the aforementioned highschool AUs and the calender challenges and yeeeaaah. The titles some people use is a bit of a turn-off too, ahaha. I've been doing some reading and I'd have to agree! Which makes me all the more weak-kneed at being compared to the likes of them ; u ;

Same here! That fic is awesome!I love his writing to bits. Hmm, wish he'd write more KH fics...ah, that's okay then. You deserve it! :D (The compliment, not the being weak-knee thing)

I knowwww! I've read it about three times now, and it never fails to amaze me. HOW I DID NOT DISCOVER IT EARLIER I DON'T KNOW. What have I been missing?! Seriously asdfghjkl;;sdkjj. It's just so beautiful and I could go on for ever and everr. I do wish so, too. Perhaps now that BbS is out...? Well, as long as we get to enjoy his writing, I'm happy C:
; U ; It means a lot to me! It's so humbling to find people think that highly of my writing ahaha ;; But I should stop wittering away like this oh dear.
Reply
Yeah. I'm really counting on that perhaps inspiring more fics (although there probably won't be much Organization involved...) Heehee. True true. :D
Haha. I suppose I should stop saying that then. Must save the compliments for next time. :D

Ikr! They're all so much more deep and meaningful than the average fare you get on FF.net. He inspires me, oh-sooooo-much *uuuu*

Exactly! *sigh* That guy is just amazing. If I could write like him...well. I'd be a lot happier with my writing. XD

We all would be, and that's the simple truth! C'8

Well said. :D

Hear, hear!
But, hey, we made good progress: in BbS alone, we got to meet seven of them! Awesome. Now another five more to go! 8D

That's true. And Braig seems to be quite awesome. That is a completely unbiased opinion, I swear! And it'll be interesting to meet the others too. Man, I can't wait. XDDD

Decisions, decisions indeed :C
Nothing wrong with being a bit biased, I always say! Ohohoho! Ikrrr. This has me squirming with anticipation. Aaaand of course this tells me I should get a PS-something first before I go off on a happy little mindtrip, ahahah x)
