Oh god, this is so tragic. Haunting and breathtaking. The way you gradually revealed everything, leaked in bits that hinted at their abilities while allowing the emotions to shine through, is just stunning. Uruha's desperation, Aoi's desire--you can almost taste their despair.

And you know I've always admired your way with words, but in this piece they're especially amazing. How they set the mood and add a vaguely ominous tone to the whole scenario, like voice like crushed glass beneath their feet and lost to the vapors in the frosted air and Ashes were falling from his cigarette, pleading their last rites into the stained slush at the stranger’s feet - black specks that almost glistened with the burning sins of fallen stars. Brilliant.

Uruha knowingly smiled back while quietly imagining her teeth coated with dripping scarlet. It would’ve been beautiful, he mused while running a thumb down the picture’s edge, to have the red stark against white, her incisors snapping open his veins - to have something tear him wide open. Oh man ( ... )

Thank you so, so much. I was so nervous while writing this since it’s not a genre I usually dabble in, but to hear that you enjoyed it means so much ( ... )

There's something inherently tragic and romantic about all this ( ... )

Thank you so much for reading and for this lovely comment.

Those are the exact feelings I wanted to convey and I'm so glad you saw that :) There's something beautiful in writing desperation - maybe it's the sadist in me, haha.

And yes! You're correct in your assumption about the woman. I think you and one other person picked up on the fact that she was quite.. carnal :3

Thank you so much again and I hope you continue to enjoy it! ♥
