Author's Note: Since I've written quite a few fanfictions, I've gotten numerous reviews that range from "That's not how it goes." to "It could be better" to "This better not be a one-shot.". Needless to say, I'm grateful for any review (as long as it's not a hateful flame) that happens to grace my mailbox. Well, I got this one review where the first words were "I didn't read this story...". For some reason, this amused me to no end. Later on, she actually read the story and I'm forever grateful that she commented on it. But, anyway, she told me that Kotarou/Tatsuki are not canon and Kotarou/Mio is.
She was very nice about and I messaged her back saying "Yes, I know." The only thing canon with Kotarou and Tatsuki in the series is friendship/caring type thing. Anyway, she put in the het/canon pairings in the review and inspiration struck for Drabbles.
Let it be said that these drabbles will not be limited to just het/canon pairingsand general themes. There will (most likely) be strange pairings that I think are funny to explore. Here's a peak of some I have planned: Mio/Chiba, Sono/Kotarou, Udou/Yuuto, Tatsuki/Yuuto,Yuuto/Karen, Tatsuki/Karen,and other such ones. Not every Drabble will be about a pairing, though.The themes for this chapter are: Good-looking, S.O.S, Brave, and Blame. I'd love to see anyone else's takes on these themes for Drabbles.
Hope you enjoy!
Drabble # 1
Kotarou/Mio
Words: 99
Timeline: Whenever.
Good-lookingKotarou had always been attractive. Boys compared him to that of a girl. Some of them even questioned their sexuality around him. Mio didn't mind this because the boys never did anything. The only one brave enough to make a move on Kotarou was Yuuto and he did so jokingly.
No, it was the girls Mio had to worry about.
Girls had always been jealous of Kotarou's looks. And what better way to quell jealousy then to obtain what you are jealous of?
"Wow, Kotarou, another love letter?"
When her boyfriend wasn't looking, Mio tore the letter to shreds.
Drabble # 2
Yuuto/Kyoko
Words: 101
Timeline: Chapter 13
S.O.SKyoko watched as the girls beat a hasty retreat, her screaming leaving with them. All her momentum and courage drained away as she sunk to the cold stairs. Her insides felt twisted and the world around her seemed shaky.
How could this have happened? She had tried to help, there was no regretting that. But, just this once, she wanted help herself.
Yuuto. She wanted Yuuto's help.
Even if those girls were gone and she didn't need it.
"Kyoko! Are you alright?"
If Yuuto didn't know any better, her aura never looked so bright as when she laid her eyes on him.
Drabble # 3
Kotarou
Words: 100
Timeline: During Chapter 5
BraveIf someone were to ask me, right now, what my most scary experience was, I'd have to say right now. At this time, with a cord around my throat cutting off my breath, it's easy to say now. This is still the scariest moment, even if I've dealt with deranged men who dressed me up as their sisters, creepy jealous stalkers, or hell, even when I was tied up in some warehouse with some guy ready to beat me to death.
Right now, none of them even compare.
But I'm proud.
Because, not once did I scream.
Everything turns black…
Drabble # 4
Kotarou, Tatsuki
Words: 99
Timeline: Whenever
BlameKotarou couldn't look at his cousin as he sunk to his knees. No wonder Tatsuki hated him. Hell, Kotarou was already starting to hate himself. And all those times he had called Tatsuki a jerk…
He had no idea…
"It's because he can see the past when he touches you. You make him see the worst of people."
Tatsuki didn't deny it. He hadn't said anything at all.
It explained so much and ripped him apart at the same time.
Everything that Tatsuki had seen and been through…
It was all his fault…
Everything…
His fault.
Tatsuki said nothing.
Please, review.
