Romance: Ryou x Edo
Notes: It took me a long time to work out how I wanted to do these, and I finally decided that drabbles would be the best way. For the most part, these drabbles are not related to each other in any way beyond all concerning Ryou and Edo. There are a few exceptions. For example, all of the ones that involve Ryou as a vampire are generally meant to be in the same continuity. I'm posting all of these drabbles as a chaptered piece so I don't have a hundred one-shot drabbles on my profile. Also, it amused me to write them all at one hundred words apiece. Comments and criticism gratefully accepted.
LJ Challenge: This was written for the 50_darkfics challenge, using prompt #18, conquer.
Collection Summary: Ryou and Edo's relationship, described in a hundred pieces, a hundred ways, a hundred words each.
Drabble Summary: Edo won their duel. That wasn't all he won.
Edo was younger than his brother. He had brought the audience's scorn and laughter down upon him. He was arrogant and self-centered. He was snobbish and cruel. He was focused to the point of being a fanatic.
In short, he was everything that Ryou had never wanted to like. Yet, as he climbed his way back to the heights, that gray hair, those blue eyes, still reflected unwillingly in the deepest depths of his mind.
Edo Phoenix had won two battles when they had faced one another that night: one of winning the duel and one of winning Ryou's heart.
