I am ashamed to not have even thought about having Yui as a real human character before… But I'm working on that request too, I'm really excited for the finished product for that one!

I'm really excited that you've loved the collection so far, and I will do Yui as a human, that concept is fascinating to me!

I agree with you. After SAO Asuna was everything to Kirito, those two (or three with my AU) years really gave something for Kirito to live for. Especially if you follow the progressive series, he cares about Asuna so much even on just the 3rd floor of Aincrad. They constantly insist neither of them are a couple and yet Kirito is super hesitant to let Asuna leave, worried about what would happen to the beginner player. If Asuna really died Kirito would've been just a shell of himself when he returned, haunted by her last words and the fact that she was still waiting for him to come back to her.

I'm working on both of them still. The Sinon one is over halfway done, Kyouji has a gun in that one, and the Leafa one needs a few touch-ups here and there.

I like your Silica story, the one you showed me over Deviantart notes, the best actually, I really enjoy the concept.

Mwahahahaha! Yeah, I couldn't really kill of Asuna without killing off Kiriti as well and I can't do that to both of them.

Hmmm… alright, I'll try that one too!

~rada-rada~

I don't think Kirito would commit suicide if Asuna does die, purely out of his love for Asuna. I think that Kirito knows Asuna would be crushed if he gave up his entire life ahead of him just to kill himself to be with her. Kirito would be miserable, but I think he wouldn't go that far to preserve Asuna's opinion about his strength and personality.

I have deemed life as being super annoying! Sorry about the long delay with this chapter, I've been wrapping up another collection for a different fandom and I got really busy with my new job. However, I'm back now and I should have another chapter out this week if I have time (Other chapter became a separate One-Shot, listed at the bottom). This is pretty short even for the short length of the other chapters, but I didn't want to stretch it out and potentially ruin it, so it's short.

Falling Through the Sky

ALHeim (ALO)

Falling through the sky was something Asuna used to have nightmares about. So never in a million years had she pictured herself actually enjoying a VR experience of literally falling through the soft blue skies. Yet here she was in ALO, currently falling through the sky. Of course, she had her eyes currently squeezed shut and was hugging Kirito beneath the shoulders with her head pressed to his chest purely out of fear. Doing this took all of her courage, and she was currently waiting for what Kirito had told her about. A point where the game's system executed a special command and slowed their falling speed to easily half of what it was now. "Kirito!" She yelled, barely audible from the rushing wind and where she was hiding her face from the rest of the world. "When's that thing gonna activate? My ears are gonna fall off!" Her long blue hair was billowing far above her head near her waist, periodically whipping against the fabric of her cloak and stinging her skin. She was pointed down head first, with Kirito mirroring her. Except he was holding her around the waist in a relaxed fashion while she was tensely gripping his cloak with both hands between his shoulder blades.

"Should be a few more seconds!" Kirito yelled back loud enough that she could hear him. Then he gently covered her pointy ears to shield them from the howling wind, that with her high listening skill was undoubtedly messing with her hearing big time. He felt Asuna relax a little as the howling wind in her ears faded and she moved her head into a more comfortable spot against his chest.

Then the thing he had promised Asuna to happen happened. They broke the main cloud cover and suddenly slowed down making Asuna's blue hair be softly lifted away from her body instead of it whipping at either of them. The wind that had been howling in their ears lessened to more of a soft breeze, and they could see almost all of ALheim from where they were high up in the sky.

Kirito removed his hands from Asuna's ears and loosely rested his clasped hands around her waist. Their clothes were barely rippling now, the collar of Kirito's black jacket stopped flapping, Asuna's skirt evened out, and the skirt like end of her cloak stilled for the most part as well, moving lightly but not flapping and creating any noise. "You can see all of ALheim from up here," Kirito said with a smile and looked softly at the blue haired Undine in his arms, "go on, open your eyes."

Asuna did as he suggested and rather cautiously lifted her head before she looked over Kirito's shoulder and her eyes widened. ALheim's sprawling landscapes were presented for her to see, the many islands and the rather large Aincrad floating in the sky a little ways away. "It… It's beautiful," she spoke in a whisper, blue eyes roaming over the many lands which almost sparkled like stars from high up here.

Kirito couldn't help it, "not as beautiful as you," he said in a cheesy way, but his onyx colored eyes were purely sincere. Asuna was beautiful normally, but with her currently blue tinted hair in the wind's grasp that made it flutter and move in a gentle pattern from the wind, and the faint stars behind her, she was perfect. Of course, she was perfect in the real world too, but when he got to see the inner swordsman spark she carried in a VR world her beauty doubled, always without fail. Even the blue hair and eyes in the game. Sure he was originally used to her caramel colored locks and amber eyes, but the blue gave the already beautiful girl a hint toward being a special jewel. A blue jewel that when the light hit it could light an entire room.

Asuna's cheeks tinted faintly red and for a moment simply looked at him, her blue eyes going over his Spriggan Avatar's face. But then she smiled a rather shy smile and moved a little closer to him. Adjusting her position so her face was even with his own. "That's cliche Kirito," she giggled, "terrible."

"But true," Kirito pointed out and gently pulled Asuna closer, his hands clasped together and arms curled around her waist in a close embrace. He could almost forget that they were falling through the air, it felt more like they were suspended on a cloud of air. A cloud that for the moment was there just for them. It was quiet and peaceful up in the VR world sky, giving them a well-needed break from the real world, and letting them be who they really were there on the inside.

Asuna's cheeks were pinker with Kirito's gentle gaze fixed on her and the currently blue-haired girl buried her face into Kirito's neck. "I love you," she muttered half inaudibly, her face getting redder with shyness from her rather shy nature behind the tsundere part of her.
