Insight

Tezuka introspective. Drama, I-3

When they faced each other the fronts ripped away, Atobe's affectations and his own reserve both burned to glittering ash in the heat of their contest.

Love this. Tezuka, as a character in the manga/anime, usually bores me because he's so typical, imo :D

But i like how you had used the ball and racquet as a form of language, how Tezuka sees it as such.

Hope to read more of this ^_^

Thank you! Definitely more coming.

Wow. That was just amazing. What great insight (no pun intended, really ^^;;) into both of their characters, as well as that match. You pretty much just wrote everything that I love but didn't know how to explain about Tezuka/Atobe. I hope there will be more!

*blushing* Thank you. More is in the works (though Atobe is being his difficult self about his pov sections). Fishing and maybe some UST is next up...

It was to hear a desperation and hope and frustrated rage that matched his own.

Oh, shit. -_- Well, that about does it. *shivers* You are going to make me read this pairing, aren't you? ^^;;; Wow. I'll have you know I was very skeptical about this whole idea, but, yeah....Tezuka. Wow. -_- That definitely does it, right there. I'd *squee!* except I'm still in shock. just like, oh. my. god. She did it. I am so dead. ^^;

I lurve Tezuka, most days he's my favorite character (he splits time with Fuji and Echizen tho...^_~) and you. just. nailed him. *awe* ♥ So. Well. I'll be reading more of this, yessss--you are amazing. Feel proud...you're one of a handful of people, in any fandom, who can make me read a pairing I don't really like, and make me first of all believe it, and secondly, enjoy the experience. ^_~

Actually liking the pairing, well, I'm still reserving judgement about that. I doubts it, I highly doubts it. >< But if anyone can do it, it would be you. ^_^

*glows* Thank you, dear! I feel immensely proud. *nodnod*

*wicked grin* And I love converting people.

Hopefully, even if the pairing doesn't grab you, there will be enough Tezu-love to make you happy anyway!
