Seriously, please feel free to skip this entry. I'm tying up loose ends of matters during my absence; this is just to put a challenge fic on my personal LJ for archival purposes.

Pretty story :) Yzuriha and Fuuma were easy to figure out, but Keiichi was not XD; At first I thought it was Seiichirou XD

oh, thanks for reading! ♥ XD You really didn't have to, you know. I'm just anal about keeping all my ficcage in one place, with the same format, where I can easily access it through tags.

Oh, I guess it could've been Seiichirou. ^^; I added in the "mother, father, wish you were here" to indicate Keiichi, but in hindsight Seiichirou could've thought that as well. hrm.

Very hastily written, because I was like "oh shoot I signed up for the challenge and the deadline is--tomorrow gahhhhhh" and about the only thing I'm satisfied with here is the last sentence, but oh well.

♥!

But I wanted to :P

That daughter was misleading XDD And his concern about family. Seiichirou always thinks about them. And truth be told, i completely forgot about Keiichi's existence -.-;;

:)

I didn't mean it to be. ^^; aww that's fine, Keiichi didn't appear throughout the series all the time anyway.

Gosh, if this is not particularly well-written - what do you consider well-written? It's pretty much 4.o1 am here and I should not be commenting on this, but then this is so well-done. The imagery, the language and your characterisation. It's all poignant and yet subtle (how they are broken and yet still go on living because it's the only thing they can do). I wish I had something deeper, more interpretative to say but it's really late. I really love the X fandom. I would write for it, if my mind weren't blocked for more serious pieces at the moment.

I just want to comment on the word choice, honestly. It is mind-blowing. I haven't seen such intricate wording for ages and ... it made me remember that I missed your writing lots. You're so talented.

I'm sorry I've been MIA. I sort of am only a ghost (hermit) at the moment ... and well, I don't think I ever had anything productive to say.

^^; I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's just that as I reread this, I kept thinking that I could make the writing tighter--especially Yuzuriha's scene, I thought it was a bit aimless compared to the other two. Maybe my reference to Kusanagi (with the still-green tree) was too vague. I dunno.

But thank you very much. X was just such a... powerful series. :)

I hope that you're doing all right--and all your comments have always been productive. Don't ever think that they're anything else than that. I wish you good luck with your other writing pieces. ♥!
