Exploding Poohsticks

SQUEE! FAKE fic for me! "you, me and none of the others." I have reread it several times already and will continue to revisit it, because it is so good - it's seven vignettes from Ryo's point of view, and I especially love #4, because the interactions amongst the guys at the 27th as well as Ryo's internal thoughts - pitch-perfect. *glee*

And someone else was kind enough to give me an extra treat in the form of "Shrapnel," a FAKE ficlet. Lyrical, vivid, jaggedly sad, and yet ultimately hopeful.

As the white beagle with black ears strutted, spun, and sashayed around with his supper dish, the three Japanese actors looked on in silence. After he finished his performance with a spectacular somersault off the roof of his doghouse, they politely applauded.

"At last we can pay attention to our meals," Yoshizumi said.

Katou mused, "I've heard that song before. One of my classmates at the Academy performed to it."

Iwaki smiled at Katou. "His energy reminds me of you--"

Yoshizumi dropped his fork with a clatter. "STOP THAT! Can't you wait until I’m done eating to nauseate me?"
