I love this pairing, and you do them justice - Ray's casual cruelty, Florian's nobility (and amazing capacity for uke-ness). Well done~

*L* I was just on your website reading your wonderful KKM stories. My favorite is "Fifteen" because I'm such a sucker for Yuuri and Wolfram stories in which Yuuri is quite confused but everything turns out well anyway.

I'm so glad you like this story. I couldn't resist writing it when I read the NYR request. This is my 34th GC story and there are still so many stories to tell with this pairing. Now that there's a new manga being published there will be even more inspiration. If only there were more time...

Speaking of stories... any chance you might gift us with another GC story? I'll donate bunnies : )

You are definitely the most prolific GC writer out there! As for me, I have a 50,000+ words story in another fandom I'm trying to finish...who knows what I'll write next? But thanks for your kind encouragement.

I read your fics on the Moonshadow Tribe site and love them! I have never seen the manga you get these from so it is even more remarkable how you make these characters so real to me with so few words - true talent!! This was lovely seeing how they were in the beginning!! Off to read more! (BTW it was our lovely Arwen that put me onto these!! :)

Thank you : ) I love this manga as much for what it gives us as for what it only hints at. It can be a humor-edged historical romp or a study of power and obsession. The art is lovely, the characters are interesting, and the story potential is nearly unlimited.

Thanks to Arwen for sending you in this direction, I hope you enjoy more of my Gorgeous Carat stories. You've probably read Arwen's excellent tales about Ray and Florian, (if not, they're a must read delight).

There is a nice selection of GC stories on fanfiction.net, and a few recs on crack_van as well as a Gorgeous Carat fandom overview.

Welcome to the fandom - it's small but friendly.
