TZC: Toushirou and Hyourinmaru set, part 1

Dec 27, 2007 19:45

I do not need a nap.

Hyourinmaru took in his shinigami’s rigid stance, his flushed face and the icy tone of his voice and concluded that this argument was probably not going to have a happy ending. They never did when the dragon tried to save Toushirou from his own occasionally self-destructive work ethic.

Oh, thank god. I was worried I'd gone a bit overboard on the ending. Thank you for reading and commenting.

YOU ARE A GENIUS AND HILARIOUSLY FUNNY!

I LOVE these little side stories!

*giggles* Wow, I don't think I've reduced anyone to a puddle before. Thank you!

*is secretly thrilled to be randomly found* Thank you! Hyourinmaru is awesome. Toushirou--at least my Toushirou--would be completely lost without him. (The best part is he feels so guilty about being pwned by paperwork that he has to do more paperwork, until Matsumoto has to drug his tea to get him to sleep.)

I've begun to think of this, "Breaking Point", and "On His Knees" as the my shinigami trilogy. *adds to memories*

It is probably ironic that an ice zanpakutou can make a reader melt like this. ;) And your Toshiro opened my eyes to that driven side of him that I somehow didn't get from reading the manga. Well done.

Oooooooooh...I didn't even realize I was doing that. It's not surprising that the phrase crops up so much, since there's a kind of possessive element to the shinigami/zanpakutou relationship. Also, I despise referring to any character in a fic as "the other," so I had to have something to refer to them by when I didn't want to use names. It sort of grew from that, I guess ( ... )

It always resonates so strongly when you do, or when it's implied by the zanpakutou's actions, as in 'Breaking Point'. And your Kira story, which I have to get back to. As you said above, it so perfectly captures that complicated relationship.

LOL, he does! And he did. *smiles*

It does make sense -- he can be self-conscious, as I recall, and that might well manifest in the ways you describe. I admittedly skimmed through most of his chapters to see if Zangetsu was going to show up again, but will have to reread them now with that in mind. ^__^

Ah, good. If I had one thing that tied these fics together--albeit unintentionally--it would be that. Nice to know it works.

*grin* Have fun.
