PoT: Mirror Writing: Fence

Fic post from my archive.

Fence

A typical day in the life of Ryouma and Momo, with a few extra revelations on Momo's part. Karupin gets in on the action. Drama With Getting-There Romance, I-4

That furball was the only living creature he had ever seen Ryouma look at with open tenderness, and Momo had a good idea of who would lose if it came to a choice between the cat and himself.

Karupin is GAWD. Furry cuteness and evil right hook. LOVE!

You know all I can think about is how normal Momo's family life is in comparison to Ryouma's family. And realising that yeah I pretty much would act like Momo too if I found out my crush friend have been brought up the way Ryouma has been.

But the other thing, the other thing being that yes, Tezuka is the substitute father-figure, but you know, in many ways he is -doing- what Nanjiroh had been doing up till Ryouma entered Seigaku. He's teaching Ryouma to deal, to evolve, to have a higher target than Nanjiroh. Except more straight-forward.

And then I remember your last piece, and how Ryouma have figured out that the old man had sent to him to Seigaku for the sole purpose of bettering Ryouma. And, and.... and I don't know what I'm trying to say except that, that.... I don't know.

Love this piece. *wanders off trying to think straight*

*giggles* One of my cats actually did that to one of my friends. I'm afraid I laughed rather hard.

*nods* I'm trying to give this enough viewpoints to show that it's not a simple black and white issue. Sounds like it's working. All good. ^_^
