A Matter of Convenience (Hikaru no Go: Waya/Isumi)

Oct 16, 2009 03:40

( Saeki never believed Waya when he started detailing the calculations they had made the first week in their ridiculously overpriced, ridiculously new apartment, and Waya did not bring it up when sober. )

Quite lovely. Even though I'm always hankering for a get-together fic, this one brings already-established-relationship ones a notch higher in my esteem. And ack--a Gravitation cameo! Were there others that I didn't recognize?

Get-together fic certainly have their charm, but I tend to be more interested in how it works out afterwards. I'm glad you liked it, anyhow (:

Nope, that's the only one. But I have to say that I'm actually surprised that someone took it *g*

Ah, I just recalled that my choice of the name "Inoue" was not entirely accidental, though it wasn't meant as a direct reference *g*

This was very sweet. There were some typos, but they didn't detract from the story. All in all I enjoyed it thoroughly!

Shows me to use an editor without spellchecker *sigh* Thank you for telling me. I'm glad you liked it (:

I remember having read this before. I don't know if I commented then, but I still like this even though it's so painful. I feel so sorry for them! But it's perfectly in character that Waya should be bitterly upset about the unfairness while Isumi takes it in his stride and accepts the circumstances for now. And Hikaru really should learn to think before he speaks...

If you have in icon with a baby penguin, you did - I just didn't see it until weeks later ♥ thank you for taking the time to drop me a line here, too.

Hikaru's lack of tact is one of the things that makes him fun to write.

LOL, yes I have :)

It is - he just blurts out whatever's in his head, regardless

*pets*

And Waya, poor thing, is the one who seems to spend the most time having to put up with it.

oh god, i utterly loved this. ♥ the fic's whole atmosphere was handled so well, melancholy without melodrama, and some of the lines had me alternately grinning like a loon or tearing up.

Shindou liked the view, Ochi liked the location, and Saeki-san liked Mouri-san next door was just perfect, lol. as was isumi's rock-solid, steady kind of character, and waya's temperamental swings of mood. ♥ the bit at the end where he looks like he might cry just broke my heart. very realistic! and so very well done~

There is surprisingly much emotion to be milked out of everyday life, I think. I wish fanfic did it more often. I'm glad you liked it ♥

I like the way this slowly unfolds from a detail to their whole way of life. And to think it might just have started from a prompt like 'Waya writes a shopping list' !

tea_for_you October 18 2009, 02:40:06 UTC

"Waya/Isumi: shopping together", if I remember correctly (:
