Summary: Five things that never happened to Yuzuriha
Comments: One of my favorite memes moving around fandom is the “Five things that never happened to *insert character here*”. It seems to almost always be done well. (Actually, I have a half-written “Five things that never happened to Conrad” fic scatted around a couple of notebooks that I should finish). But back to the comments on this fic.

It’s good. It’s very good. Yuzuriha is one of those characters who I overlooked for the more obvious fangirl targets like Kamui and Fuuma at first, but the more I become familiar with X, the more I like her. She’s nice and sweet and cheerful and caring without being stupid, and that is a rare, rare trait in anime girls. This series of fics develops her nicely, and Tiamatschild definitely has a flair for phrase. “Yuzuriha’s smile is sweet, but there is sharpness in it, like glass razorblades delicately folded into whipped cream.” That’s a phrase that has stuck in my mind ever since I first read the damn thing over a year ago, because it’s just…I like the contrast between sweetness and light and the grimness that all X characters seem to have.
One-shot, complete.
