Length: 250 words
Rating: T (that's PG-13, right?) for some mean thoughts (non-sexual, sorry folks). And no humor this time 'round.
Notes: Nothing profound – see length – and yep, another introspection piece. And yes, I'm playing with a fanfic cliché: I've already heard1) it's not who readers first thought (deliberate on my part, no apologies) and 2) they had to watch the episode again to figure out who this was (but I for that I am sorry and apologize (grins) ).
Summary: A moment of introspection from Kapitel's episode 13, stolen between breaths. One-shot in 250 words.
Title: Love Song
As he watched that unyielding arc and heard the meaty sound at its terminus, to his chagrin he had only the one thought.
MINE!
It was one of the rare surprises of his life. No calculations. No calm analysis. No cool logic. Only an overwhelming
MINE!
It was nearly a relief to realize when it (finally) had an accompaniment. Nearly, but not quite. While the thought
Bastard must die! Kill!
echoing it was familiar, it too was odd, due to the passion which entwined it. Entwined? More like overran. Flooded. Invaded. It was all very odd, very foreign to his normal thoughts. Now, if he wasn't alone in this inner dialogue, why, it would hardly be strange at all. But that thought
alone (no!)
nearly made him weep. Since when was he home to such blinding, overwhelming emotions? That wasn't him. It was that other, the one now laid out before him, who felt such irrational, unreasonable... things. Surely he (calm, always rational he) couldn't be the one saying it, could he?
MINE!
Apparently he could. And was. And did.
Of course, later he marked that moment as a key turning point in his life. Why else would he throw out all his
theirs!
carefully laid plans on a moment's whim and have a series of justifications flood his mind in their place? He was faintly shocked as he heard the words that would change it all leave his mouth...
"Mr. Takatori, you are mistaken in who you should hate."
