PoT: Mirror Writing: In the Forest of the Night

Fic post from my archive.

In the Forest of the Night

Takes place in Current Tenipuri Year. Ohtori reflects on the pair he's found himself a part of. Drama With Romance, I-3

Choutarou had been raised to show courtesy; Otou-sama always said it was one of the best ways to disarm an opponent. So he was polite to his peers and his seniors, both, and lent a hand wherever one seemed needed, and devoted every bit of his strength to working his way up the ranks.

Apologies for not writing back sooner. RL and my site kept me a bit busy the past few days.

You were looking for Hiyo-centric stories? If I could recommend one author to you, it would be ruebert, both for his Hiyoshi stories and his one ShishiTori story. Rue is both my favorite author in the fandom, and my very good friend. Like you, I think he works very hard to keep his characters as canon-based as possible. He's the reason why I added Hiyoshi to the site in the first place, and why I love ToriHiyo as much as ToriShishi. ^__^

You don't need to send me anything to get your stories into my archive. I've picked them up right from your LJ posts. You can find your listing on the ToriShishi fic page (http://torishishi.com/tsficindexA-K.html#Emily%20Ravenwood), if you'd like to check that I've got everything right. Archiving part of a longer arc was a bit of a challenge. Hopefully, you'll agree with the way I did it. If you see anything you want changed, don't hesitate to tell me, even if it's something minor. I want you to be happy with it.

I did add Confluence, but I did it more as a link rather than a separate entry. The story isn't really centered around Ohtori and Shishido, therefore, it doesn't really match the criteria for being listed at BND. I would have just linked to it in your LJ, but I worry about LJs getting deleted and such. Since you said I could archive it, I hoped that would be okay.

The only question I have for you is if you want me to list an email addy for you, in case anyone reads and wants to send you feedback. If so, just let me know and I'll add it. I really hope you do write these guys again. I loved these stories so much that I recommended them in my LJ to my friends.

Thanks again!

Looks great! For email, ravenwood@alltrees.org is my main addy.

I expect I will write more ShishiTori sooner or later; they're great fun. Feel free to grab any others I post, for the archive.

*enthusiastic* Rue's work is great! He's the one who first interested me in writing from Hiyoshi's pov (poor, neglected boy).

Thank you! I added your email addy last night. Everything should be finished now.

Thank you, too, for giving me blanket permission to archive more. I really appreciate that. I'll be looking forward to it.

I'm glad you like Rue's writing. I don't think he'd mind me saying that he'll probably be posting some more Hiyo works in the near future. I'm spoiled because I usually get to see them before they get posted. It's funny how he's made me love a character I really didn't even notice in the series.
