I love both these characters endlessly and this was so good. I love how while the writing itself seems more Gaiman, you've managed to catch and atmosphere and a sense of violence in the same way Baccano does. Somehow these canons mesh beautifully and everything here was so thorough and dreamy and beautiful. I love all your descriptions of what the Corinthian is and isn't, I love your subtle grounding of facts for people familiar with only one or the other, and I love love love the idea of the pairing.
