PoT: Standalone: Three Plus One

Fic post from my archive.

Three Plus One

A scene that might come just after issue 339. Kirihara angsts a bit until his team makes him see reason. Drama, I-3, manga continuity

Yukimura-buchou didn't look away from the game. "Did you hear what they were calling you?"

I loved the characterizations here, especially Yukimura. And I like that you've shown the humanity of Kirihara. I think that's forgotten in the crack of PoT sometimes. I enjoyed this.

*purrs* :)

Mmm, Kirihara. :) And Yukimura!

*absolutely gleeful* Yes yes yes yes. *glee* Oh, he is so adorable and sharp and going places and damn I love Rikkai.

[branchandroot]

*pleased* Thank you!

PoT crack is fun, to be sure, but Akaya is one of my favorite characters, and I think you're right; the whole Oni thing got rather skewed by the anime into demonic possession and that was just weird. I'm really kind of glad that his red-eye mode was revived as a viable technique.

*grins* Thank you! *pets the shiny, sharp Yukimura*

*heart heart* Rikkai is love. Oh yes.

love it...who knew akaya is vulnerable...with all his sempai-tachi knowing him oh-so-well :)

[branchandroot]

Thank you! *grins* I've thought for a while now that Akaya may be pretty insecure about his own strength (who wouldn't be, facing those three!), and that was what drove his old play style. I like where the manga is taking him.

[love]

musivitch and giving_ground wrote on chaptaer 339 too. Wow. I really need to get caught up.

338 and 339 have made me a happy fangirl. *cuddles the Rikkai goodness*

Oh, I'm dying from the flood of Rikkai goodness this week. *is a very, very happy fangirl indeed*

Love the characterization in this piece. Every last one of them is so perfectly himself. ♥

Go, go, Rikkaidai!

[branchandroot]

*grins* This is a /very/ good week to be a Rikkai fangirl. Glad you liked it!

[garowyn.livejournal.com]

That was rather enjoyable to read. =)

[branchandroot]

Glad to hear it. ^_^

yay~ I really hope that Rikkai does win. :]

Akaya is cute in this one. x3 *huggles*

[chineseathena.livejournal.com]

Nyah! I like it! Go Yukimura, Kirihara, Sanada, Niou...ah, screw it, go Rikkaidai!

[branchandroot]

^_^ Thanks! *grins* I think Akaya always gets extra cute points when he's around his senpai.

[branchandroot]

Thank you! *laughing* Yeah, all of them are pretty great.
