DREAMS OF SUNSHINE
Theme 1 - Kan, ya ma kan (Translation: Once there was, and once there was not.)

Disclaimer: Tsukihime and its characters belong to their respective owners. I do not own the story/animanga/game nor am I affiliated with the official staff.

Author's Notes: After deleting and uploading almost every fanfic I had on my computer, I've decided to start fresh and write some new stuff. These one-shots will incorporate themes from 52flavours. If things go well, I'll eventually have 52 one-shots of Shiki x Kohaku goodness.

This drabble's spotlight is more on Kohaku than the pairing, but I suppose it works in the end. Besides that, beware (?) of some light spoilers.


Once, a girl lived through a fairytale.

Unfortunately, this fairytale was twisted, making her guts feel like tightly-knotted ribbons. Her life was a hellhole. "Tranquility" simply did not exist in her dictionary. She wished to oppose the situation, but she essentially was a caged bird with an inaudible voice.

Once, a girl died, leaving only her carcass and a functioning brain. The organism had only one aim – revenge. Regardless, it was imperfect and left a remnant of its girlish self with the boy it detested.

Alas, the being was neither a simple girl nor puppet. She was simply in love.
