Saiunkoku: The Age of Silver: Finding Home

Fic post from my archive.

Finding Home

Seien is re-introduced to the court. Familes are reintroduced to each other. Drama with Fluff, I-4

Seien's jaw tightened, but he did stand and turn to face the Court. The roar that greeted Shou-taishi's gesture of acclaim was distant in his ears; it reminded him of the sound of the riots, a year and a half ago.

aaaaah so much happiness it defies words.

Wow. Senka is quite intriguing, too bad he doesn't last longer. Really, the early years of Saiunkoku, when Senka was establishing his reign, when the Big Three advisors were young, are practically begging for fanfic writers to take liberties. So much excellent history that never gets addressed. Nevertheless, your Senka pleases me greatly; a very complex man established in very few lines.

Ryuuki is indeed made of adorable, I am very much pleased. Adorable reunion scenes for the win! And Ryuuki gets his beloved brother back and gains a friend . . . all in one day, an embarassment of rich gifts! Poor lonely kid, he deserves all of that and more.

And as for Seien, he gets to keep both of the chibis. Ah, the lucky guy, surrounded by such cute his happiness is assured. He gets to have his manju bun and eat it, too . . . surely returning is worth it, wouldn't you say, Seien? :-)

Aaaah, I feel like I just had a good meal.

*hearts* Thank you!

I had a good time writing this one, especially after the angst I'd just put poor Seien through. Not that All Is Well quite yet, of course, but he does have a much better outlook now. ^_^

Senka really has turned out to be a complex character, despite his rare appearances. I am very tempted to see if any young!Senka bunnies come calling. Especially if I could get him before and after his light-of-love died.
