DRABBLE: Place

Title: Place
Prompt: #7, Wind
Pairing: Iwaki/Katou
Rating: G
Note: Some info on kites here - it turns out there’s a prominent kitemaker in Kyoto who shares Yoshizumi’s last name. But that’s something for some other drabble some other time.


“This is fantastic, Yoshizumi-san!” Katou exclaimed, holding up the puppy-shaped kite. Iwaki looked equally pleased with the paper swan that had emerged from his own box. Katou continued, “I can’t wait to try mine out! Too bad there’s no wind today!”

Yoshizumi grinned. “These are Kyoto kites. They’re light enough to fly inside without any wind, if you really can’t wait.”

Katou looked at his puppy, his expression suddenly thoughtful. “I know I said couldn’t wait, but I think I want his first time to be in a park.”

Yoshizumi glanced at Iwaki. Iwaki’s smile was faint but unmistakably loving.

This was unbearably cute! The kites fit their personalities so well. And Katou? Bad Katou! *sniggers*

Again spot on characterisation.

This is such a dangerous fandom - every dang drabble I write gives me something new to lust after.

*blames snapelike SO HARD*
*hugs with equal ferocity*

And do I feel guilty?

Not for a sec! I need people to squee with over this tiny fandom! *snuggles happily*

Aw, so adorable! I always think of Katou as a big puppy dog myself! ^_^

That's Suzy the sheepdog, on her way to the Westminster Dog Show a couple years ago (photo from the New York Times).

Close. Almost a goat. :D I couldn't see what it was, so thanks for the explanation!
