Reflections in the Deepest Light
By H-Man
Hi! My name's H-Man, and that's a short name for a great person such as me!
Anyway, I made this small fic to see if I could write a nice shipping. The chosen one was one I call Alchemistshipping out of affection… You'll understand why in the end.
It is also angsty, and, considering I'm not an angsty fan, you can say it's a development.
Please read, review, and criticize me on what's wrong! I won't be able to develop until you do!
P.S.: I wrote this at 8:20 PM. So I'm kinda tired. Oh well.
"Are you okay?"
I shuddered as those words reached my ears, startled. In front of me, one of the nurse apprentices was staring at me, her face showing her concern. I simply nodded, still stunned from the shock I felt.
"Good. I was worried something serious had happened to you. It would be very bad for us all if it did."
I relaxed a bit more, paying more attention to her words. I had to show that I was interested, I suppose. It would do very badly for my own reputation if I did not. It would not do at all.
My own reputation… where did that come from?
'You must pay full attention to what other people tell you. You must not let them notice that you are slipping in your tasks. It would not do at all if you did so. Your reputation would be damaged greatly from such events.'
The school I studied in… could it be I was subconsciously accepting their line of thinking so bad? Am I losing my own self-control? Am I…
Was I becoming them?
"Ma'am? Is there something wrong?"
Her face betrayed her own voice; while she said it as she was taught, I could see the small wrinkles in her face and the small curls in her mouth that showed true concern. 'So she hasn't been totally subverted… but I wonder for how long.'
I couldn't face her for much longer. Her face was so pure… so gentle… so… tamed.
Was it taking over my heart as it is taking hers?
I moved my gaze away from hers as I started to walk away. I had no real idea as to where I would go. I only knew I had to go away.
Heh. A bumpy start, just so you know. It will be growing up soon, but the chapters will be slightly shorter. Oh well, it was supposed to be a one-shot... you can get it, I suppose.
