Two gifts tonight!

And freshly written!  Which means FIRST DRAFT OMG.

First I'd like to post this tiny angsty Integra/Alucard ficlet.  Featuring angst.  And also an awkward sketchy school!theory I threw in just because.

Thanks so much for the feedback. ♥

I'm glad the first came out so well! Thanks for pointing out the comma splice. I would probably fix it to a semicolon...but I have a bad habit of thinking the desired flow at which you read it is more important than correct punctuation. *facepalm* I want that slightest pause the comma gives (making it almost poetic, in my mind) rather than the full stop a semicolon would. Plus it's already a weird parenthetical line with the italics and odd construction ("was she").

Yeah, the Ouran drabbles are just supposed to 1) remind me about what's so cool about each of the characters and Integra, and 2) hopefully make others who are familiar with both series go, "ooh, that's awesome and has so much potential!" Ha.

But thanks again for the feedback, much appreciated.

Thanks! Yeah, that line is probably the one line in all the drabbles that looks like it might belong in a proper story, ha. And I'm already thinking of how to revise it so it flows better....

(Also, we meditate like that in karate. :P And it's part of my personal canon that meditation is SRS BIZNESS to Integra, because it became really vital to her sanity and ability to cope with the workload, all the pressure/responsibility in her teenage years.)
