Title: Paper Thin
Prompt: #8 First meeting
Pairing: None, Iwaki Masahiko (Iwaki's brother ;0)
Rating: G
Summary: Dreams are easily crushed...

Sometimes paper feels so heavy. Paper walls. Paper doors. The documents of his father's business. Thin slices of tradition and commitment.

Paper. So light, but heavy enough to feel like iron shackles, tying up his dreams.

Somewhere, in another room in the house, his daughter is crying. Masahiko loves his family, or so he thinks. Only love should not be a burden.

He remembers how Kyousuke-kun looked the first time he saw him with that golden-haired lover of his. How in love. How light.

Masahiko pushes the thought of handsome Katou Youji away, and goes back to doing his duty.

Beautiful language, and a most interesting twist.

I has plotbunny. One is only that homophobic if... I adore the type Masahiko is. They are fun picking apart. *smirks* I consider setting Asano or someone similarly ruthless on him.

Thanks, hon. ♥

I want to comment on the cleverness & the poetic-ness and the use of the paper imagery.

But I'm feeling too stupid.
Again.
*kiss*

Poor man. It's hard being the "good one."

Lovely, hon.

Thanks. It is hard. And I want to know what he would have done, had Iwaki not ran away. I want to find out if that homophobia of his is so serious as it seems. I want to see him fall apart because of love and desire... all the things he is so bloody afraid of. *rubs hands* Poor Masahiko, when I'm done with him.

I remember you saying so, but I can't recall who. The young man who tried to take Iwaki away from Katou? I look forward to seeing what you do. :D
