Hello everyone! I'd love to thank you for clicking on this story. Most people would prefer a MikaYuu ship, but I have my reasons why I ship this couple. It is important why you read this chapter because I think it may help you to understand this ship.

I mean, everyone has their own opinions of different ships. I just particularly like this ship because of their contrasting, yet similar personalities.

Hiiragi Shinoa usually never lets people know about her true emotions because she thinks nobody cared about her due to her childhood. She comes from the Hiiragi Family, and because her sister Mahiru Hiiragi was supposed to be the successor of the family, Shinoa was cast aside. Despite this, Mahiru Hiiragi was the person she was closest too. Shortly afterwards, her sister was killed in the process to complete Cursed Gear due to her blind love for Ichinose Guren. Because of this, she was hurt because she could not protect her sister. Shinoa thought that the easiest way to live life was to care for and protect herself only. This is why her heart is of stone.

However, when she crossed paths with Hyakuya Yuuichiro, he had witnessed things and had a dark past after having his family killed. He had a strong will to protect not just his family, but everyone. He was outgoing, did his own thing and only cared for others' wellbeing, never putting himself first. This is what Shinoa did not understand. She simply could not fathom why he chose to make life harder for himself. But soon after forming the Shinoa Squad, she realised why it was important to protect people that she was close to. However, after discovering how close-minded Yuu was, she had to teach him the hard way. You can't always protect everyone, even if you have the strength to.

It's like Shinoa's heart is of stone and Yuu's heart is of fire. Maybe this ship will allow them to forge an unbreakable glass that protects everybody from harm's way.

Also, it's rare to see this ship because there are a lot of MikaYuu ships. Which I understand because they seemed pretty close in the anime, to begin with, it's the anime's fault for making the ship canon. However, they seemed more like in a brotherly love rather than romantic love to me. So I honestly did not prefer that ship.

Moving on, I'm not sure how I will start this story or what the plot should be yet, however, it should take place after they hideout on the beach after betraying their team. My idea is that they try to make their way back into the city to save Krul Tepes in Mika's interest and try to reverse what happened to the Seraph. Or maybe make negotiations with the Vampires. I'm not sure, because not every story has a happy ending.

Or I could make this a simple lighthearted story. Where it has the same concept of what I just talked about, but it takes place just after Yuu is revealed to have the Seraph gene. I would love to take requests and ideas for this story.

About lemons...I'm a very shy writer and if anything I will practice myself on writing limes in the story, other than that it makes me cringe when I'm writing them. Seriously, try writing one yourself and see how you start to cringe.

I'm not sure about what this story's name will be, so I will name it Strengthened with Love.

The reason why I will name it this is because if you love someone, there is a stronger urge to protect them right?

I do not own anything, the characters, the Anime. It doesn't belong to me.
