KHR/Hetalia Crossover/Fusion: A Sky to Hold Them – The Right Hand anonymous October 23 2010, 02:57:58 UTC
The basic premise:
KHR meets Hetalia and fuses in an altogether unholy way. Featuring the infamous Vargas family and fairly newly instated Vargas Decimo (baptized as Feliciano Vargas), with his six Guardians. The guardians include:

Arthur Kirkland: Storm Guardian, surly, chainsmoking, possibly alcoholic, hitman and spy

Alfred F. Jones: Lightning Guardian, good-natured, overly excitable Family hacker and gunsmith

Ivan Braginsky: Cloud Guardian, …does whatever he feels like doing while being terrifyingly dedicated

Honda Kiku: Rain Guardian, accountant, personal assistant and in all aspects, very useful and very polite

Francis Bonnefay: Sun Guardian, classified as the “medic” but generally only sought in the most desperate of cases

Wang Yao: Mist Guardian, androgynous illusionist with a peculiar affinity for panda dolls

And newly instated:
Ludwig (officially Ludwig Edelstein), Vargas Decimo’s Second and Outside Advisor, a confused, competent and mostly sane man dragged into the mafia world.

The “practice room” was really an ancient ballroom. Ludwig noted that certain areas were rather newer than others, namely the windows. It wasn’t exactly unpleasant or ancient; he could quite easily see Roderich here, perhaps playing his beloved Chopin on a grand piano or playing a single violin sonatina in a rare moment of whimsy. However, the room had an air of- disturbance, as if more than dancing occurred here ( ... )

Yao scowled and made a clearly peeved retort. At this point, Ludwig wasn’t quite sure whether the Asian was male or female and couldn’t bring himself to ask. The strange serenity hadn’t entirely disappeared though real emotion, unpleasant emotion, was starting to trickle back into his brain ( ... )

Ok. When I saw this, I jumped so happily in joy that my laptop fell off my lap and crashed to the floor. And I had to restart it.

...That's just how much I love this. Your snarky Arthur, your mysteriously Engrish-speaking Yao, your befuddled Ludwig--this was perfect. Oh, I don't have any more words to describe the sheer awesome that is this trio of fics.

Please, PLEASE continue.

I need to take a deep breath.

ZOMG MORE of A Sky to Hold Them!!!

I absolutely LOVED your fill, from the snippets of the guardians (Ivan's in particular, was so heart breakingly beautiful) to Second (Ludwig handling a gun? Actually assembling a gun? That's some kink material for me) I can practically picture Francis' dress suit and high heels... ZOMG my brain. And Erzebet being militant? Priceless. I love how she is at once domesticated (if such word can EVER apply to her) and still is the same fierce soldier.

Wait, I am just reading your new intro to the AU, LOVE them character profile! Kiku as an accountant? Hmmm, so much potential. Ludwig is only sane in a relative sense to the rest of the gang, I mean, SANITY IS OVERRATED when you can spontaneously manifest flames off your body at will, who cares about sanity? Seriously.

And this? This is perfect, I can't wait to read more! Please please please do continue! Sending you a heck of a lot of my love ♥

The slim Japanese man (Kiku, Ludwig reminded himself) smiled very slightly. It was early evening and they were in Kiku’s suite. Somehow, it had been decorated with all the accoutrements of Japan, with wall scrolls, a simple vase filled with painstakingly arranged chrysanthemum blossoms, and bamboo mats covering the hardwood floor. The room was rather comfortable in the Spartan simplicity, though Ludwig had a faint nagging feeling that he might just end up disturbing Zen harmony without realizing it ( ... )

Ludwig opened the bottle, a little irked at having his own trepidation pointed out to him, and rolled out a single pill. He swallowed it and waited for the sledgehammer jolt of pain ( ... )

your kiku. so lovely.
it's hard to find kiku with a personality--it's really hard, that's my opinion, and you really did such a good job. he's so polite, so unobtrusive...really mysterious, i think.
please keep writing!

not OP, but definitely a fan/follower anonymous October 25 2010, 05:38:20 UTC
Yay, an update!

I love the introspection and subdueness (is that a word?) in your narrative in general, and how it is influenced by the characters. For the most part, so controlled and entirely too much fun to read. Can't wait for Ludwig's interaction with the other Guardians (hmmmm, wonder how it would be like between him and Ivan?) Would Ludwig ever find out Feliciano is Feli in his memory?! Oh, the suspense, the suspense!

reCaptcha says "fantess CHAPTER" - is that a sign?!

...you know, when I saw this in the Fills list, I screamed. :D But now allow me to offer you a less embarrassing "thank you very much for continuing this!"

“You’re going to need a weapon, Ludwig,” said Feliciano over a mid-morning break of coffee and biscotti ( ... )

Ludwig looked at his hand. It was surrounded in Flame. Quite a lot of it. The brilliant blue made the shadows eerie and faint, warring and overwhelming the white fluorescent light in the workshop. He took in a deep breath and felt his headache not quite ease but become very manageable. It was there, yes, but he wasn’t bothered particularly by it ( ... )

anon does happy update dance~ anonymous October 28 2010, 21:07:05 UTC
My love for this particular passage is beyond my command of words:

The German, who had gotten slotted into the complex inner workings of the palatial mansion far too easily for comfort, blinked several times. Surprisingly, it was the paperwork that made things- easier. He had gotten swept to suit fittings, shoe fittings. Someone had been around to cut and style his hair and even fit him with a new pair of reading glasses. But the paperwork made things simpler. He could settle on the ancient and probably priceless desk he had been given and reduce the world to comparing documents and line upon line of numbers of innumerable accounts and transactions.

So cinematic! Oh I adore, absolutely adore your writing style.

Lovely, lovely Alfred! Why so cute? I think it's also not-so-strangely fitting that you based him on Wash. That made me dance extra happily for the meta-mention of Firefly! And glasses is so totally a sexy accessory, particularly on Ludwig. *shot*Off topic: Could being far sighted makes Ludwig a good/better marksman than he ( ... )

Thank you. /blush

Alfred strikes me as the Wash-type. Including acting out things using his plastic dinosaur collection when he's bored. "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

Ludwig is a decent marksman, definitely better than average. It might be due to his farsightedness, it might not. :D He's a good shot and to be honest, a shotgun wouldn't be a bad weapon for him; he's certainly strong enough to handle the recoil without any trouble.

I'll go into weaponry later, especially when Ludwig meets everyone else.

Shotgun definitely would work well with Ludwig's physique - the Walther PPK might be on the tiny side in his hand (me = all about the visual and not the practicality, you see) but one thing that concerns me about shotgun is that it is a relatively slower weapon - the recoil is one thing, how about the reload???

Then again, Ludwig handling a shotgun brought up fond memories of Biohazard/Resident Evil. Hmmm~ I can't wait!!! And if you would explain this episode of spontaneous "Fire up" that would be awesome~
