Cursed RL work almost done (for a while...)
More nervous about whether my island_rp application will get accepted or not than these Actually Important schoolthingies -_-'''yes, really. (maybe it's because schoolbusiness is too scary to worry about, most of the time. yes)
Will certainly take a while before I'll know...GAAh! I keep wanting to go back and ad things (did that once), but that would just be un classy, probably useless too if I really screwed up. *sigh*
Title:
Author/Artist: me
Website: http://keraaminenkettu.deviantart.com/ (where my art lurks)
Warnings: weeeird
Pairing(s): No...for me, putting two characters in the same room feels too racy sometimes...-_-'*cough* but that has nothing to do with this one, oh no.
Notes: Edit like whoa: The long version:
So, I decide I'd like to RP, so of course I'll choose Koumyou, a character with as little screen time (or page time, as the case may be) as possible. Jumping into the deep end of the pool is a great way to learn to swim, eh?
And then I realized that almost everything we see of him, is what either Genjyo or Nii remembers, and while they are both intelligent people, they aren't probably very objective in this particular case...(and aren't maybe the most mentally balanced human beings ever either, yes? Well, Nii certainly isn't and Genjyo was a child.)
What this has to do with the story? Well, it meant I had to think about these characters (too much). Thought I fear my characterization of Ukoku/Nii needs a lot more sharpening...but let's say it's an unsetling situation even for him? (as if)
Oh, and Momiji, I'm sorry...I forgot just because I have thought these things throughin my head too many times, other people haven't. Does this clear things up?
He dreamed of walking along the silent corridors of the palace, sharp moonlight cutting through the windows.
It was a dream, right? Because such bright light would have woken him up otherwise, it always did, without fail.
It shone on the abandoned chessboard as well. No, not abandoned, a man sat at the table, leaning on one hand and watching the unfinished game. Perhaps he was considering his next move, or just lost in thought, it was hard to tell from the look on his face.
The other one stood at the shadows of the doorway for a while, and then moved skittishly across the floor to the high windows. The sky was empty, except for the stars that peppered the blackness. So it was a dream after all...he sighed, relieved, no doubt.
There were quiet footsteps behind him, but he didn't turn to look. "Stepped down, did you?" He said instead.
"Why not?" said the other voice, soft and faintly amused. "Sometimes one tires of only looking, do you think?" said slightly teasingly.
He frowned but said nothing. It was silent for a while, and then he asked, quickly. "So why haunt me? Why not the other one?"
"Naah. He got over it, eventually. I was worried for a while, true enough, but...it all ended well enough as anyone can hope, in those circumstances."
"Well, I'm not the person you knew either. Too bad."
He could feel the other one looking at him, with those far too perceptive eyes, but still refused to look.
"Perhaps not...neither of us is very human anymore, are we?" There was no sharpness in the voice, non at all. "Not the way you see it, that's certain."
He wondered what that was supposed to mean. "It's amazing how stupid intelligent people can sometimes be." Said the other one, voice brimming with gentle amusement.
When he looked up again, the moon was back in the sky, full and pale. Shining brightly enough to drive someone weaker mad.
Not him, he had seen far worse.
