Re: xxxHolic, Doumeki/Watanuki, ineptitude
Something from Doumeki's POV! Huzzah! Now I'm pretty pleased that I couldn't sleep and got back up again, because there is DORRIE FIC. I haven't found that much fic from Doumeki's POV, maybe because Watanuki's flailing is so fun to write and Doumeki's quiet intensity can be harder to grasp? But you've managed it perfectly.
Things look bad, so Doumeki puts his fingers in his ears, ready for the onslaught. OH THEM.
This is grand, and their interactions are so spot-on. I like how you avoided the easy way out - the sex doesn't 'solve' anything about their relationship, but it doesn't ruin anything, either, and oh. Oh. You should be proud of yourself.
