Hold

Tezuka tries to break through to Echizen. Drama, I-3

Ryouma knelt where he was, staring up at the General. He could feel the deadly thin line of Tezuka-dono's sword against his throat. It didn't move when the General spoke.

*hearts* Thank you! *grins* And, yeah, this was one of the images in my head that started the whole arc rolling. I would love to see it drawn, but I'm totally hamhanded at sketching. *sighs*

*nodnod* The emotions that are gestured toward in canon really work better for me when there are sharp pointy things at stake; it gives more depth to the passion involved, I think. *wry* Of course, if Konomi were any good at writing emotions/motivations that might not be the case, but there it is. We have all these fantastic hints that are never developed.

Well, that's what fans are for. *chuckles*
