Request #8 - No Other Way, 'When I Heard Your Voice'

[terrayndian]

So I finally got another request done, even though it felt like pulling teeth for some reason... but if I wanted to be truthful, that's what always happens when I write non-SxS pairs. =P Ah well, another one down and still a bunch to go. Right now I'm planning to finish at least four more off the list before churning out an other chapter of GR:NP

I really enjoyed this one! :D It has been a long time since I read When I Heard Your Voice, but it didn't seem as if I really needed to remember all the details to enjoy this piece. I especially loved the interaction between Adryan and Laek. :3

But the best part? Seifer blaming their relationship all on Laek. xD! I laughed at his reaction.

Great job! Can't wait for whatever is to come next. :3

That's one nice thing with this ficlet happening eighteen years later - things change, thus it's almost a new story given that chunk of time. Of course, I'm forced to recap those years, which was the painful part, but I'm glad it came out as something easy to read.

Heh, Seifer is a wise man - Laek is an apple who didn't fall far from the tree and Seifer damn well knows it. Meanwhile, Adryan will always be Seifer's little boy because of the years they spent together as just father and son.

*laugh* Would you be surprised if I didn't have a clue what was next either? Well, I know the next request, but after that... I have things to figure out. =P

I really adored this story and would love it if you decided to continue it at some point. No pressure, but I think you've got a really good beginning for something moving and doing the heart-string dance for us readers. Thank you very much for writing this.

*laugh* We'll see if I do more about these brothers in the future, but it was fairly painful writing this one little ficlet, so I'm not too motivated. Granted, the hardest part should be done with, but Laek is a hard character to figure out. He seems simple enough, but he has this other piece that is very dominate in that he got his prey and nothing is going to take that from him. Even Adryan would have a hard time getting free if he ever decided it was too much to love his brother, but Laek is determined to never let Adryan think that. Bleh, a big mess, and with Esthar involved, I know the Shumi are just around the corner, which has been my sign thus far that the story would be a longer one.

Though saying that, I may get the urge to write more about these brothers. Truthfully, I don't have many new ideas on my plate, which may lead to a time when I can write more about them... but first, GR:NP and then a new idea I've been waiting a good year or so to write.

... I really need to write faster. =P

I LOVE it! Oh man, it made me all giddy the whole way through. I really like the way you wrote it out (including the lack of sex!), because it all makes sense. :D Seifer's reaction killed me. XD I felt a little bad for Laek though, since he gets all of the anger for it, even if it is deserved. XD I like how Adryan looks more like Seifer, but seems more Squall-like? And Laek looks more like Squall but definitely takes after Seifer. XDDDD

I'm only sad that it had to end. XD; Thank you for writing it! :D

[terrayndian]

I'm so glad that you liked it! Especially that you didn't mind the lack of sex since, as you say, it just wouldn't have made sense to drive right into a smex scene. And really, you know those boys aren't going to be allowed much alone time until Seifer gets his head around the entire mess. *laugh*

While Laek definitely takes after Seifer, Adryan is more of his own mess who has quite a bit of Fuujin in him, granted that it's a Fuujin who can talk. ;) But yes, Squall certainly had an influence over Adryan, not to mention Selphie's coaxing Dray to be more like Squall and not his stupid father. *grin*

Thank you for the request! Despite my frustrations, it was fun revisiting those boys. ;)

That was too adorable for words. But I'm kicking myself, because I had almost the same reaction Seifer did at first. A mixture of "BWAH!?" And, "Hey! You get your hands offa your brother!"

But then i remembered something crucial. I ship Wincest. Who the fuck am I balk at these two? So I read it, and I squee'd and now, I ship.

You've corrupted my soul even more. I hope your pleased! (I know I am ;P) <3

[terrayndian]

*laugh* That's my goal in my life - to corrupt as many souls as possible so that I don't look so bad in the end. ;) I still laugh, though, that I didn't initially intend for these brothers to end up together, but something happened during the epilogue of the main story and I just sat back and thought, 'Damn, Laek is going to grow up wanting his brother... well, that sucks for Seifer.' ;)

[abbynormalitis]

Ahh, Laek is one of those crafty little babies who likes to get what he wants. :P ...In other words, he's more like his father then he lets on. XD Go Adryan! ^^

Why am I thinking that once Seifer gets used to the idea, they'll wish be never gave permission? *snort*

[shattereternity]

I believe my favorite part was seifer's reaction lol

and i agree that this has a lot of potential of becoming a very long story if you decided to continue :D (which would be great *_*)

[terrayndian]

*snicker* I'm finding it highly amusing how many people liked that part. Poor Laek, he'll forever be the one to defile Adryan, but Seifer can't stop loving his boys... Granted, Squall will have to remind him of that. ;)
