Wahhhhh! *clings to Shura*
I cant decide which one I like better!

Shura knew there was more to that offer but he didn't need to be told. He had been born just for this chance, this moment. Only through that truth he had been able to survive.

It started off so grim, and then it turned out so differently than i expected! I liked the idea that Shura "knew" this was it for him all along.
Loved the matter-of-fact approach to it, also.

His world is the world of Athena.
I don't know whether to be sad or happy for him. It's really fitting for him, though. Matches very nicely with his sense of responsability and duty.

*still cant decide which one she likes better*

Heeee, very very happy to read that. I have a slight preference for the first one but that's because I love small!Shura. On the other side the second one was the first I wrote for the 30 Themes so it has a special spot too.

... Yeah I guess I can't decide either.

It started off so grim, and then it turned out so differently than i expected!

Oh, really? Out of curiosity, what were you expecting to happen?

I don't know whether to be sad or happy for him.

The Shura in my mind tends to waver between those extremes. I'm never quite sure how he feels. Waaay too driven by his sense of duty.

As always, thank you for commenting! :)

The beginning sounded a bit predatory, with the alley and the kids huddled at the end so I didn't expect the saint to come along ask for family, give food or offer the incentive of bed and shelter. Maybe because the day you posted that was just a day after I had written something similar (though way more generic) for the 100 prompts and my drabble was a bit harsher.

The more i read it the more i like it, by the way ;)

I really love the way you write Shura. Both pieces were lovely a little melancholic but so perfectly Shura.

Oh, wow, thank you so, so much for these words! I love writing about him and to know others enjoy what I write is always one of the best motivations to go on. Again, thank you and I hope you like the upcoming fics.
