Writing challange

[narcasse]

Since I’ve reached 100 Trinity Blood fics at Sunsets, it’s Nuit Blanche, I’m meant to be writing pr0n and we’re into the countdown to International Narsus Month: drabble/ficlet/maybe even something longer requests are open. Prompts such as fandom, character, prop or location are welcome or name a genre, a point in the canonical storyline etc. Crossovers are fine too: I’ll see what I can do with them.

Fandoms I can probably write in at the current time being: Meine Liebe, Trinity Blood, The Matrix, Sherlock Holmes, Yugioh AU, Sunshine, Batman, The Hellbound Heart, Stargate, XXXholic, Greek myth, Saiyuki. There may be more that I’m missing from that list too so try me.

Not limited to one request per player since I’m in the mood to be writing.

Re: Trinity Blood. Suleyman, Seth: hieroglyphics

There's nothing to apologize for... instead, I really thank you for thinking so long about this and actually writing it down.

It's so difficult to put into words how much I appreciated this piece. Let me say that it stands up amongst my absolute favourites of what I've read from you, and that I cannot define in any other word but perfect the way you used the prompt. So thank you. I hope I'm not sounding overdramatic or anything, I mean it wholeheartedly.

The ending particularly stroke on me beacause just recently, with a drabble, I had considered that Suleyman's rebellion could have moved a gear, changed something in Seth's destiny, forcing her to reveal herself... well, so I'm glad it wasn't an irrelevant idea. You expressed it perfectly with that sentence.


I'd like to translate also this and the Clow/Yuuko piece in the "Narsus Translation Project" if that's okay with you... in this case, would you also like to add a title?

I’m glad you liked this. I still don’t feel as if I’ve quite done the idea justice and eventually I’ll hopefully be able to rectify that with a longer piece in keeping with the same continuity as Pathway.

I’ve had a look at your drabble and if I’ve understood it correctly the imagery of Süleyman pulling away Seth’s veil really works wonderfully. She’s uncovered her face already but the idea of the veil tearing is easily loaded with symbolism and certainly makes me think of the Biblical veil of the temple tearing (where it may even have been the Temple of Solomon IIRC).

Feel free to translate this and the other piece. Title-wise I’m tending towards something a little pretentious like “Hieros gamos” for this piece though the title could have worked for the Clow/Yuuko piece too. In which case, in keeping with that theme “Chymical Wedding” would work for the other.
