WELCOME, MY DEAR FRIENDS!
Welcome to the sequel to "Requiem for the Restless Souls"!
Vogel Im Käfig.
To those of you who guessed the title correctly, take a virtual cookie! *points to cookie jar*
And of course, here are our pairings!
NaruxMai (DUH.)
LinxMadoka
AyakoxTakigawa (Oh say, can you see~? Mrs. Takigawa coming to be~?!)
And the rest? Well, they're a mystery for now. I know, but you don't, and that makes me very happy! XD
Anyway, what I wrote as the epilogue in Requiem was what I was going to post here, but... *clears throat* I figured I should say a few words first and explain my train of thought for those of you who have asked.
I controlled Requiem for the Restless Souls. I shifted the characters so that they were a bit OOC to lay the foundation for the true story coming up here in Vogel Im Käfig. I showed Mai who I wanted her to be and told Naru to act oblivious. I forced the SPR characters to become flat while the spotlight rested on Gene, Naru, and Mai. I instructed Gene in his methods for guidance for Mai.
Now here's the best part:
I showed everyone what to do, I laid the foundations, I instructed them on how to think. But now... now I can step back. I've held their hands long enough and they know what they're doing without my instructions.
So I told Mai, Naru, Gene, Lin, the rest of SPR, and any of my OCs,
"Go," I said as I sat down at my computer, my fingers posed over the keys. "Go and live your life. I'll follow you later."
So what is Vogel Im Käfig now?
It's Mai and Naru's story.
And all I'm doing is running after them and documenting it.
Lots of love,
