Disclaimer: I am not CLAMP
I wrote this to reflect my confusion of ch.162
Warning: … I warn because it is a response, but it is very vague. But I did warn. Up to and for the events of 162.
Break
In that moment, it broke. He shattered it, shattered into a million fragments. It was broken; like the broken lies and broken smiles, broken dreams and wishes. It was broken yet it got him no closer to the truth, no further from the deceit.
He had yet to shatter the deceit with the truth, yet to shatter the pretense with reality, as his sword had shattered the memories. False memories. And everything in this world, in his world was false false false, the truth being buried so deep that one could never hope to reach it.
Did he want to break free of it?
The other did not know, as this world was his, and his world was left with only lies to give. So very much like himself.
But he hoped to change that. He hoped to uncover the truth lying beneath the corpses as he hoped to uncover the truth behind the mask.
And he would break through the lies constraining the other to a web of guilt and self hatred and the promises that he made. And he could scream and he could cry and he could hate him infinitely more, but he would break through it.
Because it meant that much to him.
He proved just how much, and the other screamed the ironically familiar name and he dove deeper, wondering if anyone really knew the truth anymore.
He was shouting and the other was silent, and the man stood, still smiling, with cruelty and sadness etched onto his face. And the boy, with the creature, were still lying on the ground and the girl still wasn't there. And it was madness.
Fin.
a/n: Okay, I am very confused with this chapter, and I do hope this reflects it well. No pronoun or noun designated for the focus characters, and thus you have to have read the chapter to understand this.
Can anyone answer exactly witch PART of fay's memories are fake? That's what's got me baffled right now. (oh, but yay for Kurogane still not caring about the past.)
Well. What did you think?
Comments? Concerns? Hates? Review and tell me :D!
I will love you forever and send you Christmas presents at Easter.
