Oh. Wow.

I've been wondering where Himawari has been, well, ever since we got the first spoilers for 186, and this, this is a beautiful answer. It's sad and pretty and it fits all too well into the direction of the story.

The whole thing is gorgeous, her point-of-view is clear and in-character and it's fascinating to see from Himawari's eyes.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much. ♥ I'm very fond of Himawari, so I'm glad to see when others give her love.

Thanks for reading!

This is very nice. I think you captured Himawari perfectly. It has so many nice touches -- the way she touches her scars, Doumeki watching from the shadows as they eat the cake, Doumeki touching the egg after he shoots, and especially the last scene. Lovely and sad.

Thank you very much! ♥

I LOVE IT <33333333

Adhsjfgd;a this is exactly what I wanted. :D I've never seen it really elaborated on of what the price meant for her to take his scars, and when I was rereading xxxHolic and saw that she changed her hair directly after Watanuki recovered from his fall it suddenly clicked. Sneaky CLAMP <3 Giving a view into the last arc at the ending was a wonderful surprise~ <333 Thank you so much! ;)

OMG I'M SO GLAD! ♥ I wasn't sure if this was what you wanted at all, so I figured I'd try it anyway and hope you liked it. ♥
