I don't get it, it's Kuno and who else?
Well, umm... that was sorta the point to the story.
When I first wrote it, for the hour challenge in the chat room, the woman
was supposed to be Nabiki, and that this was part of my "Kuno's Game"
series. But as I revised and got to posting it, I realized that I didn't
have to name the woman. In one of the earlier paragraphs, I made a slight
(very slight) reference to "Scars", and that was about it. Just after I
hit the send button, though, I saw that I forgot to name the woman, and
considered posting a notice about it. Then I thought, 'Why not leave it
like that? Leave it up to the reader's imagination?'
So, for a final answer to "Who was the woman?" the answer is "Anyone you
want her to be." If you want her to be Nabiki, and this fic to fit into
KG, then it does rather nicely. If you don't, and you can come up with
another idea that you like, it's just as fine from my point of view.
I've been wondering myself. The setup reminds one of most of the
fics out there that portray Tatewaki and Kodachi in a secret love affair.
The relationship seems to be a long-standing one, and incest between two
outwardly-different siblings would fit nicely with the general theme. There
was one line near the start, though, stating that the girl always wore
modest clothes. , and the only major character to really fit that
description is Ukyou.
See above rant :)
The story did have a nice style, I thought, not that I really go for
those "Masks We Must Wear" kind of stories that show the characters with
secret personalities.
Unfortunatly, you'd hate my Kuno series then, eh? :P
Oh, and by the way: thanks for responding. That makes three (count 'em:
3!) comments I've gotten for this fic.
