Improbable Instance

By: Aviantei

When it comes down to it, these wings
are incomplete. It doesn't matter
how powerful you are. If one wing
is full of life and feathers and wind
and the other is nothing more than
a stub that even baby birds could
laugh at, what is it even worth?

How would I evaluate
this instance? For the first
time, there is something there.
I'm sure that once I wake
up, there will be
a definite sense of
something missing in the place
where that wing rests now.

But until then, I'll live in this dream
and have complete wings with which
I can use to truly fly.

Um, I guess this one requires a tiny bit of headcanon explanation... (which involves mentions of Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance. I really don't think there are spoilers but... meh. Watch your backs if you're paranoid)

In the game, there's a image that shows a silhouette of the Composer. In this shot, you can see that he has wings, except that it looks like there's a full wing and the stub of a wing. It may have been an art error or just the image of the angle, but I took this into a headcanon that this is how Yoshiya's wings are as the Composer, especially since it's implied that the Composer isn't quite an angel.

However, in Dream Drop Distance, Yoshiya shows off his wings and suddenly they're there. I took this as the fact that the world they're in is a dream, and since Yoshiya's responsible for this dream, it represents his want to have proper wings... Which lead to this poem.

There are actually a lot of Yoshiya feels in Dream Drop... but that's a different chunk of feels altogether.

So, with that being said, thanks to Amulet Misty for your review! I hope you like this installment as well.

I just officially finished one of five classes for the semester, so that's one less thing for me to worry about. Once my giant paper's done, I can get some more writing done...

Is anyone hoping for a poem from a particular character's point of view? I'll take requests if I haven't already planned one out yet~.

The next chapter will be about Shiki. Please look forward to it!
