Yami no Matsuei: Rewritten on the Body

Title: Rewritten on the Body
Fandom: Yami no Matsuei
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: So pretty I think about stealing them all the time. But no, not mine.
Summary: No challenge, and yet a drabble.



He keeps trying to copy it to paper: the curse written on his body, the red ribbons that bind pain to skin and soul to soul. Lines twist away from him; pens blot, brushes smear, pencil points break. It would be sensible to let someone else try, but facing the mirror is hard enough.

In the dark, Tsuzuki's gentle fingers trace new ideograms on his skin, rewriting curses into blessings. Fuda for protection, fuda for transformation, fuda for bringing the weary peace and the lost home. Hisoka never knew, never knew before, how much the paper must love the pen.

No, no, Kamui from X is Connor. Tsuzuki and Hisoka are Mulder and Scully. [livejournal.com profile] boniblithe and I worked it all out in great detail.

Tatsumi has his Anya moments, but they're not really cognates.

..but which one wears the sensible pumps?

Yeah. Tatsumi and Anya are alike in many respects, but worlds apart in others. It's a pity Caritas blew up though, I'd love to see the Yami crew breeze in there one night..."Okay, first? You're all complete wrecks."

I suspect Hisoka doesn't sing.

Hisoka is Scully. No pumps, but his version of neat office attire. Also reserved; passionate; distrustful; prone to being underestimated because of height, youth, and prettiness; with a history of sexual abuse; and devoted beyond reason to a partner whose reckless pursuit of a mission can be more self-destructive than helpful at times.

Tsuzuki's resemblance to Mulder is less pronounced, but there's height, guilt, and trenchcoats.

Boni thinks I put way too much thought into this.

I think Boni's right, but it's awfully cute.

I suspect Hisoka doesn't sing.
Not in front of people, anyway. But it's canon the rest of them do...
