My First ever Matantei Loki Ragnorak fic...type thing. I may have brought my obsession back once more so perhaps there will be more...after Christmas.
The following are actually 50 sentences written for the LJ Community 1sentence. However, upon finishing the 50 sentences I came to realize that if put in order, it kind of equals a ficlet. So I'm posting them here: a series of interconnected drabble.
Spoiler Warning: goes through end of Ep. 26 and then goes AU from manga (I think . ).
Disclaimer: Ha! Like I would be brilliant enough to create Loki...if only.
34. Lightening/ThunderA storm was raging on that fateful day and with a the flash of lightening he had known someone important would walk into his life, but only when the rolling thunder came over him did he begin to realize just whom she would become
11.
Name
He
had many titles and more surnames, but he had always been Loki (a
name that never changed), and while she was only Daidouji Mayura, he
wondered if that was her name at all.
40.
Innocence
To
the world, she was so much older than he, but behind the deep green
eyes, she could see he lacked the innocence of youth and so,
unconsciously, never thought of him as young.
12.
Sensual
Mayura
was a sensual being: when she looked she saw; when she listened she
heard; when she ate, she tasted; when she sniffed she smelled; when
she touched she felt and through all she enjoyed life and it was
through her that Loki remembered what it was like to experience life
rather than live it.
--------------------------------
18.
Speed
Mayura
was not the fastest thinker nor was she the fastest runner, but more
than any mortal Loki had ever come across, she was the quickest to
find a true mystery and quicker to stumble into the hands of someone
who would hurt her.
37.
Technology
"Loki-kun,
a cell phone is not a demon device of a new age nor are computers,"
she admonished, shaking her cute new phone at him, "You should
really try to act your age and not like some hundred year old man who
can't take change."
38.
Gift
He
had done small (but frequently annoying) favors for Mayura without
thought or question, but when Narukami-kun asked him why one day, all
he replied with was, "She gave me a great gift and now it is my
turn to start paying her back."
36.
Market
It
was a chance meeting in the marketplace, bumping into the handsome
man like that, but as he left her behind, she couldn't help but feel
that she knew him despite never having seen him before.
1.
Comfort
It
was raining again, the sort of weather Loki loathed, and as another
sigh escaped past his lips he heard a familiar voice call out,
"Yamino-san, thank you for the towel!" which brought a
smile to his lips unbidden.
43.
Sky
Loki
always had his eyes turned to the sky, longing shining through his
eyes, and Mayura sometimes caught herself from rushing to grab hold
of him, irrationally afraid he might disappear into the distance.
30.
Star
Sometimes
she seemed as a star, beautiful in its dim radiance, sitting for the
world to admire and wish for but somehow always out of reach.
7.
Chocolate
Mayura
had never given chocolate to a boy before, yet she couldn't help but
hope that the handsome man that had called himself a god came around
in time for her to give him some, positive that it had nothing to do
with the fact that he reminded her of Loki-kun.
27.
Blood
They
had kidnapped her, forced her into sleep, possessed her and tried to
kill her all to get to him, but nothing had enraged him as much as
when he first saw them spill her blood.
22.
Jealousy
Very
little caused the seemingly young boy to react in any passionate way,
but when Loki saw Mayura talking and flirting with Kou-kun an
uncontrollable rage washed over him making him want to kill the boy
he otherwise respected...and wonder just what it was that he felt
towards Mayura anyway.
5.
Potatoes
She
came to him, smiling in that pure way of hers, carrying a plate of
potatoes and sat down beside him saying, "Loki-kun, can I join
you or do you want to just sit all alone?"
41.
Completion
Loki
was not whole, his true power and strength ripped from him, but in
their absence, he looked to her to make him complete.
10.
Ears
There
were things she desperately wanted to ask, to shout, to say, to
exchange some form of knowledge and there were things he wanted to
tell her, to assure her, to let her know all of what was behind those
lies, but nothing ever reached the other's ears
-----------------------------
16.
Weakness
Loki
was weak to water, a sad fact but true, yet he could never find a
weakness in Mayura, whose indomitable spirit seemed to flourish under
any pressure, until at long last he saw the look in her eyes when she
opened the door and found someone other than him standing before her.
20.
Freedom
Loki
was free at last to be himself, a true god once more, to return to
the heavens where he belonged, but as he looked at the beautiful
innocent girl before him he knew he wasn't free at all.
17.
Tears
He
watched her cry, those solemn tears flowing silently down her pale
cheeks, and knew that it would only take a small movement to make her
stop, to forget it all, but instead, confronted with the knowledge
that he was the cause and that he would rather see her cry than laugh
in joy as if he never existed, he gave up everything to stop them in
a different way.
6.
Rain
Loki
hated the rain, hated all water in fact, but he found himself
standing tall and letting it drip down him, staring at Mayura as she
frantically searched everywhere for a little boy who no longer
existed.
25.
Devotion
She
had searched tirelessly for him, proving her affection and need, but
could she come to love him as he realized he did when he chose to
stay?
35.
Bonds
Loki
could not leave her behind, could not let her live without him in joy
while he suffered her memory, could not take his place among the gods
if it meant leaving her behind, so by all that made him the Trickster
god, he swore he would bind her as inescapably as she had unknowingly
bound him.
4.
Pain
Because
of him she had been put through so much pain - not only physical but
the mental anguish of unanswered questions and time mysteriously lost
- but he promised himself and all the gods that for every moment of
pain, he would return it hundredfold with happiness.
------------------------------
45.
Hell (Alternate Ending)
A
light flared up in Mayura's eyes before quickly dying away and being
replaced with a shy flirtation as she noticed how handsome he was;
then her eyes left him forever as she turned around, the sun gleaming
off a pretty hair ornament she wouldn't remember owning that caused
her to forget the pair of emerald eyes that stared at her retreating
figure.
----------------------------
46.
Sun
Loki
had never particularly liked the sun, for all its fiery depths,
perhaps because it cast light on his lies and tricks, but somehow he
loved it when it was setting and cast such a light on Mayura as to
make her glow.
8.
Happiness
It
was a long time before Loki realized that Mayura seemed to make every
excuse to come and stay at his mansion and at first he thought it was
because she was afraid he would disappear again, but finally he
realized it was because when she was there, she was happy.
3.
Soft
Mayura
was asleep, again, and, not for the first time, Loki took advantage
of an inopportune moment to brush her satiny cheek with his knuckles.
47.
Moon
Under
the watchful eyes of the moon, Loki pulled her into his arms and
relished the feelings of her knowing she would not remember and ask
questions and longed for a day when he could embrace her for all the
world to see and not just the solemn moon.
23.
Hands
He
hated his small hands which didn't hold the strength they should,
couldn't pull her up from falling, couldn't hold her still, and
looked small in hers: a child's hand to keep her view of him a child.
24.
Taste
Loki
loved sweets: the way good chocolate melted on his tongue, but at
times, when he nibbled sweet things while staring at Mayura, even he
knew he would prefer to taste something all together different but
surely just as sweet.
26.
Forever
One
day he watched her from his chair and realized that as he may love
her forever, one day she would stop seeking him out, stop clinging to
his company and find forever for herself; and as he realized this, he
came to the decision that he would have her define forever as he did.
13.
Death
It
was a hard thing for an immortal, death, even knowing they would one
day be reborn in some new way, but with Mayura, Loki would not
comprehend a life where she could not remember him as she would never
be forgotten.
21.
Life
"One
day, Loki-kun, I will graduate high school and will take up my duties
in training to be the priestess of my family's temple - to get on
with my life - but, when I do, I hope you can come and visit me
instead, because I cannot see living my life without you."
9.
Telephone
He
stared at the phone, mentally debating for perhaps the third
consecutive hour of that day, but still could not bring himself to
make a phone call that lacked any purpose other than hearing the
sound of her silly voice.
28.
Sickness
He
had never seen her sick before and grew scared when he learned of it,
for what could bring the indomitable Mayura down might take her from
him completely.
39.
Smile
"I
wish I could smile like you, Mayura, but I think I lack your purity
and innocence; so perhaps you should share it with me."
31.
Home
"I
know you don't belong here, Loki-kun, and I'm not quite sure where
you do belong, but I do know that where you call home, I want to,
too, so when you leave take me home with you."
48.
Waves
She
stood so easily in the water, the waves washing over her knees at
times, and Loki suddenly felt scared that they would wash her away to
a place he could not go.
------------------------------------
19.
Wind
They
stared at each other, the wind blowing harsh, tossing the tendrils of
her hair, and rushing like a wall between them as a dawning sense of
understanding and underlying fear settled into one pair of eyes and
dread and loss grew in the other.
33.
Fear
Loki
knew she had seen what she should not have, knew that things would
now come to a head and questions would have to be answered, but all
that slipped by in anguish as he looked into her eyes and saw that
she was afraid...of him.
32.
Confusion
In
front of her was the man whom had called himself a god and had been
little Loki-kun only seconds before; Mayura was not sure what to
think but had the feeling that at long last all of her unasked
questions would be answered.
29.
Melody
She
was shocked to see the boy she knew standing tall and grown above
her, but somewhere underneath the awe, music was breaking free in her
heart as she realized she could finally love both the man and the boy
of whom he reminded her.
15.
Touch
She
ran her fingers hesitantly down his face, through his hair and over
the length of his arms and chest, before looking up at him and
whispering, "Loki-kun, is it really you?"
50.
Supernova
There
was an explosion inside of Loki when she looked up at him, asking for
no explanation yet, but simply stared at him shyly and whispered,
"You know, I love you, Loki-kun."
2.
Kiss
It
was something he had wanted to do since he had seen Heimdall defile
her so long ago and so finally he took his chance as she stared at
him, awed at him all grown up, and purified her lips with his own.
14.
Sex
Loki
never thought he would be able to touch Mayura, to really touch her,
but for the first time, as he drew her down beneath him, he was glad
to be wrong.
--------------------------------
44.
Heaven
As
he looked into her ruby eyes and twined her pink hair around his
fingers whilst her head lay comfortably in his lap, Loki knew he
hadn't given up anything at all: heaven was right here
42.
Clouds
"No,
I don't think that looks like a rabbit, Mayura, but I do think it
looks lovely when reflected in your eyes."
.49.
Hair
"I
would ask why your hair goes from dark to light but then you would
just ask me why my hair is pink so perhaps I better not."
