I kinda felt like really bringing out that evil side of his that lies beneath the surface and he holds back so hard, as well as reversing their roles somewhat to make Hakkai the saviour and Gojyo the savee. I wanted to push a few horror buttons as well, but in a more psychological than gory way. Did it work?

But I value your opinion! So long as someone see it I'm happy ^__^

Creepy, but in a good way. I really like the style you used for this.

purpleicicles October 1 2007, 22:27:16 UTC

Yet another experiment! Youkai!Hakkai's inner evil voice had a definite twang in my mind that was lyrical in a victorian vampire novel kinda way... I should draw that...

vegeta_no_oujo October 1 2007, 22:28:03 UTC

(nodnod) You should.

I found this quite chilling. Yokai!Hakkai is one scary dude! I enjoyed the role reveral, too. And the fact that it was yokai!Hakkai that did the saving, rather than sweet, human Hakkai. An excellent horror piece.

Wow! Thank you! I thought that youkai!Hakkai could be quite sinister and cruel, but not without emotion, and above all else he'd need a motive. I guess even in this state Gojyo has a significant pull on him emotionally. Role reversal is so fun X)

They share a history, and not just in this life. I think they'd be drawn together anyway. You showed that particularly well, though.

\o/ YAY! Thank you!

Would it be strange of me to say the end was actually pretty sweet? There is something about youkai!Hakkai carrying Gojyo home that just makes me go "awww" regardless of the bloodshed that came before hand. Yeah, I'm weird, I realize this ;) A very nice fic, you did a wonderful job with Hakkai's "other half".

purpleicicles October 3 2007, 19:37:48 UTC

I wanted it to be sweet, funnily enough! I'm relieved that came across, because I still wanted there to be emotion and thinking there, not just mindless violence. Hakkai's too much of a rational guy to go totally AWOL, methinks. Plus, it makes a nice contrast to all the violence, like you said!

lillypuff October 4 2007, 17:33:32 UTC

I agree completely, even when Hakkai is out of control, he still has some measure of control (if that makes any sense lol).

bloody_soul58 October 2 2007, 10:44:43 UTC

uh. yeah. Huuuum. well done. It's all I have to say. u_u

purpleicicles October 3 2007, 19:38:20 UTC

Haha, not sure, huh?

bloody_soul58 October 4 2007, 10:31:48 UTC

no, i'm sure.
but it was very dark and....hm. don't remerber the word in english for "poignant" in french. -_-...tka the heart in the fist, see? (Ok, I'm saiying weird things -_-)

purpleicicles October 5 2007, 00:00:58 UTC

We stole that word. It's still 'poignant' in english :) I wanted to go for a juxtaposition of the creepy and he emotionally deep. I guess the scary bit came out alright... I thought some people might find it a bit dark. And I agree that the gore may be a little offputting, but it makes the later bits more poignant, as you said.
