Fic post from my archive.

Earth Over Heaven

Yukimura is finally convinced that he is fully recovered, and is beyond pleased over it. Drama With Romance and Porn, I-4

Seiichi stepped away, and then spun to face them. "It's all here," he said, and Genichirou's throat closed at the wonder in his voice, "I'm all here, still. Again."

Wow! That left me with a feeling that can probably be best described as euphoric. The connection between the three of them shines through every line. And other people have probably already said as much, but I absolutely love your Yukimura; the way he is both soft and gentle, and (I'm looking for the right word here, and this probably isn't it) blazing. Somehow, you manage to take contradictory terms, and put them together so that they don't contradict any longer.

[branchandroot]

*snugs* I think it's that Yukimura takes joy in both sides; that aspect of the character can reconcile a lot of contradictions. *pets Sei-chan*

Gah. [reduced to incoherency] So--gah!

[half an hour later--no, really]

Gah!

Bob: Aren't you *done* yet?

One more for good measure. GAH!

Now. ^______________^ The mental image I have of the Rikkai boys as towels is so delightful. ^_____^ And the hang-gliding comment? Priceless. ^________________________________________^

[branchandroot]

*beams* Gah is good.

The trio pairing fics have always given me an interest. I want to see how writers portray their interactions with each other, and most people do things differently.

I love how you have made them interact. There is a support that you know exists and it's expressed in so many different ways.

Anyway, straying from the point I was going to make... ^^

It was a wonderful story and nicely joins the other parts in this series you have going. I can't wait to see more!

[branchandroot]

Thank you! Trios are always hard to write; it's good to hear this is working out.

Sememuraaa *______*

the descriptions really set the mood. haha XD though I kinda got lost when Genichirou put his legs on Renji's hips. @_@ I tried picturing it but couldn't tell who was where and...yah --;

Seiichi across the court from him, flashing under the sun, brilliant and sharp as a killing sword

one of my favorite lines. I think it's very true. a sword is elegant, beautiful and yet very, very deadly. perfect analogy for Yukimura.

[branchandroot]

Yeah, I wondered if that needed a bit more explanation. I'll see what I can do in final revisions. Thanks! ^_^V

I still love your Yukimura. You make me see how he can maintain Rikkai, and why they miss him so.

He shines. He really does, but I wonder you've decided if this is part of the Mirrorverse or not? Because if its not, to me the only true match for this Yukimura would be Tezuka, who has that same quality of perfection... which I think you're set up for.

I never see trios as stable things. They break down eventually.

The trio is interesting, though the Kirihara fangirl in me wonders how that will work in...

Oh, and I didn't see any spell demon typos!

[branchandroot]

*blinks* Do you know, I hadn't considered that pair. I mean, they're definitely parallels, but I hadn't thought of them that way. That could be... interesting. *grins* This arc's Fuji agrees with you.

I'm fairly sure this is a different universe than Mirror Writing. Fairly.

All right, Emily: 1, Gremlins: 0!

*reads*

*reads agains for good measure* *twice*

*leans back in cushy computer chair*

*cures* Troika smex...I love you...all my dreams have finally come true. *worships*

*rocking back and forth keening*



100 hearts for you! ^_^

[branchandroot]

*squeaks* Hearts! *snugs*

Squee~~!

[thrance-86.livejournal.com]

You wrote another! So happy! *gushes*

*reads and reads again* O.o

Lurvvleyy!!!! I LIKE~~~!!!!

Still, no kiri-kitten. A weeddle bit disappointed.

No matter, it was still superb work, as always.

Re: Squee~~!

[branchandroot]

Thank you!

*grins* There is at least one more SanaKiri I need to write, and who knows what bunnies will breed in addition? ^_-

[lady-readwolf.livejournal.com]

{would love to jump up and down praising the glories that wrote this... but considering the looks her coworkers are already giving here for her crack-faced GRIN and the fact that her two team teachers just walked in she'll have to settle for:


Damn... this was *goooooood*... wanna read it again...

[branchandroot]

^_^V

Reading at work is a pain, isn't it?

[lady-readwolf.livejournal.com]

yeah, but since there was no way in hell I was going to wait any longer than necessary to read....

^.^ yeah... who cares if everyone thinks I'm a little strange, right?

right?

[mica-chan.livejournal.com]

I really don't know what to say. I'm totally speachless.
I confess it's hard to me to imagine a sex scene with three people, but...you made it so well. You know since the beginning I fell in love with those three and this story was just perfect. I'm still worried with Kirihara, but I trust in you that you won't destroy Yanagi/Yukimura/Sanada relationship in order to deep Sanada/Kirihara.
Of course SanaKiri is interesting when we think about the sex, I've already told you about that, and I still think the same way after had read the second sex scene with them, but...for some twisted reason I can imagine Kirihara in bed with Yukimura too. A lot of sex, a lot of respect, some tension, but no deep feelings. (because to me, even imagine the trio cracked give me so much pain)

Well, well, well...let's see how you'll work all this. And...really, this is the first time I've felt totally into a Rikkai Dai story. You are amazing! (and your Yukimura is perfect and...can I say that I would like to see some Sanada/Renji story inside this arc? I don't know why, but they are tormenting my mind).

[branchandroot]

*takes a bow* Thank you! Threesomes are hard to write; you really have to let them take it slow, and that can get frustrating. But these three work out really well.

No worries, SanaKiri will not break up the Great Three. Aishuu is tempting me to try TezuYuki, but if I do that I think it will be an alternate future to one where the three keep together. *grins* And I'm really tempted to do some YukiKiri, because Kirihara is so cute when he's crushing on his captain.

Sanada/Yanagi, hm? Yeah, some quality time for them could be nice. I'll see if something suggests itself.

[mica-chan.livejournal.com]

No worries, SanaKiri will not break up the Great Three.

You made my day ^_^ (oh, not today, because I read this comment when you wrote, but just today I could write to you...and I'm happy all over again because what you said).

Aishuu is tempting me to try TezuYuki, but if I do that I think it will be an alternate future to one where the three keep together.

Hum..that's a pair I had never thought. I don't know...there are so much interesting options to them with other people. I really don't have a great interest in TezuYuki (specially because I love Tezuka with Oishi).

*grins* And I'm really tempted to do some YukiKiri, because Kirihara is so cute when he's crushing on his captain.

Oh, yeah! I totally agree with you! (specially if you do it inside the current arc you are writing)

Sanada/Yanagi, hm? Yeah, some quality time for them could be nice. I'll see if something suggests itself.

I'll be eagering waiting for your ideas.....and your story...I mean, if we could see Sanada/Kirihara inside this arc, we can see some Sanada/Yanagi inside the same arc, ne?

*cries in joy*

I have only been waiting for the Power3 fic since you began writing PoT fanfiction. I love you, your talent, and your amazing skills at pulling off a GOOD (hot) threesome. *huggles*

I could feel the feeling of euphoria, of relief through this fic. Yukimura's relief, Sanada's relief, the whole team's happiness at having their captain back. And Kirihara's reaction at getting a full blazing congratulation from Yukimura. I love.

The image of Yukimura moving his legs back and forth when *coughs* involved in certain situations make me giggle. Sanada's comment implying it being his first time made me laugh, as his following comment on Yanagi's habit of being right all the time. I love.

Darling, I adore you to death.

[branchandroot]

*glows*

*hugsback*

*grins* Yukimura can be a wicked creature, when he wants to be. I'm really starting to sympathize with Sanada, poor, stoic dear, having to deal with such a mischevious captain, and Yanagi's teasing on top of that.

*hearts*

Wow

[red-planet31.livejournal.com]

Beyond happy that you write the Rikkais so lovely. I love how you write Yukimura.

Re: Wow

[branchandroot]

*pleased* Yukimura is hard to pin down, since he's appeared so rarely to date; good to hear people think he works.

[solaas.livejournal.com]

Dang, you're good! Now I'm beginning to actually notice Renji, too.

It's hot, but you also keep it actually intimate between the three of them. Your writing completely suspends my disbelief, making it no effort at all to ride along and just enjoy the read. No need to consciously switch on the 'this is FANTASY, dammit' filter. ^_^V

[branchandroot]

*blushing* Thank you. That suspension is one of the things I work hardest at, especially for a situation like these three; it's wonderful to hear that it works out!

*grins* I started paying more and more attention to Renji, too, as the arc went on. He's a subtle character, and it took him a while, but I wound up thoroughly in love with him before I was done. ^_^
