Wow, this was great. I admit, I stopped watching Weiss Kreuz after the first season ended and never bothered with Gluhen, but from what I see here there's so much action and more ambiguities that intrigues me into watching it again. I feel sorry for Sakura, but there's also a bit of me that thinks that it's a particularly hard direction she chose, especially after all she's gone through. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you so much! Weiss Kreuz is my absolute favourite anime series (I can't really explain why! :-) and I'm very fond of Sakura, who is resourceful, clever and brave, despite the bashing of her I've seen in some fics. I'm also very fond of Schwarz in all their unpleasant glory. I wrote a series of drabbles and stories for this AU, covering the time from the end of the first series to about eight weeks later, when Schwarz are in Europe (which is where they are for one of the canonical drama cds), if you'd like to take a look ( La Femme Sakura). This particular story, while it's set post-Gluhen, has few Gluhen-details; it's not clear if all/any of Schwarz really do work for Mamoru/Omi (his identity was of course, something revealed in season one).

Thanks again for your lovely comment, I really appreciated it!

I just say 'wow'. I'm not sure if I've said that before. Anyway. Sakura took and grew up somewhere during that little incident, did she? She's a lethal young woman now and, damn, I like it.

The way you twisted around the quote was quite clever. ^_^ Always happy to read your fics and drabbles.

Thank you :-)

Sakura's very dangerous- trained by one of the best, morals and inhibitions surgically stripped away, excellent at what she does.

I'm glad you liked the turned quote :-)
