I hope this isn't too vague; a little commentary on your favorite (or a part you're very proud of) bit of Nothing and Moonlight, plz? ^^

mmm... let's see. ♥ from the third part of nothing and moonlight (beware of talking!ceci) -
She lost track of time, sitting in the twilight with dog and shadow and moon up above - days of her own voice and imaginings, and hooded figures outside which maybe she had dreamed, and sometimes just his eyes, his silence, watching - so when the tendrils twined throughout the room she could only wonder if it was real, really happening, before he spoke-
the story-sections all begin in long, image-heavy thoughts without sentence-breaks - there's a certain element of it usually in my natural style, but i tried to run with it more purposefully in n&m - kairi's almost dreaming awake throughout the story, and i wanted it to have that shudderquick feeling of everything tumbling or flowing like in fevers or dreams. ♥
i wanted to leave the possibility open that other organization members might have been there, though it seems more that saïx was keeping her for himself a secret -- xemnas denies knowledge of her, and in final mix, when ( ... )

but - she can't. and she finds that at the end, when she realizes that saïx will hurt her just to hurt sora. but she still wants to keep trying, even then - it's only her promise to sora and riku that stops her from staying.

omg yes - boys are much harder for me to write. i think their dialogue comes out all right (i love saïx in nothing and moonlight thank you yo_yo_san) but it seems much harder to just drop into their heads and feel as they do? there's some preference and lack of practice i know, but still there's always a little bit of disconnect when i write a boy. i think... i think i don't so much identify with boys, and i like more to write characters i feel a connection to. (kairi & naminami. ♥)
um um um... but i sekritly love to rp silly sora. ♥ & i think i might enjoy writing roxas, especially in twilight town - memories with his friends, maybe. ♥
outside of kh i wrote many terrible snippets from the pov of fei, the heroish of xenogears. ♥ i don't know so much i felt a connection with him -- but lots of situations i wanted to explore through his eyes. ♥
maybe i should try to write more boys...?
