Good twist? Bad twist? I was so excited to have been doing foreshadowing for the first time and I was so focused on that I can't really tell if the actual plot twist is interesting/cool or not.
Haha, I noticed the "hint dropping," but I assumed it was continuity issues (I'm sorry, it's practically second nature to assume after reading so much fanfiction). Your writing reminds me of Mononoke. And I don't just mean the story. Sometimes I really do see the vibrant colors of the anime when I read. It's surreal but I never feel lost. Well done.
No worries, I don't blame you! I would have thought so, too - it's fanfiction, after all, not Lord of the Rings, or something.
Thank you for the compliment! I was inspired by Spirited Away, and my original plan for the story had a lot more of Arthur interacting with random spirits and weird creatures around Yoshiwara, like Chihiro in the bath house. But I just didn't get the opportunity to add that all in, sadly.
OH MY GOD THIS FIC, MA'AM!!! Now I understand why you didn't explain context when the chapters begun! Aaahhh... a very sad and cute story. Say, are you going to put it in ff.net??? Because you're one of my favourites authors *blushes*
I know, I was wondering if anyone was thinking "Why does every chapter always start with Arthur just seeing Alfred and there's no mention of what he does outside Yoshiwara?" X)
I will probably put it on FFnet later, but I need to edit it a bit first. However, I won't edit it too much. I wrote a 40,000 word fanfic last year for Sweethearts Week and I really want to put it on FFnet, but because I keep saying "I have to edit it first!" I never get rounding to uploading it anywhere. So for this fic, I'll definitely just fix spelling and grammar mistakes and chuck it up on FFnet, otherwise it'll never get there...
