  I just recently watched Seven Samurai, and then went immediatly after watching to find fanfiction based on Katsushiro and Kyuuzo. Yours was the first I found.
  
  I absolutely loved it!! The characters fit the universe you put them in so well while staying true to how they were originally. I loved the interaction between all the characters. And the idea for this seems truly original in my mind.
  
  Thank you so much for writing this!! ^_^

  Isn't this a ~great~ movie? When Septicemic wanted fanfic for it, my brain shorted out over the problem of slashing a spoilered character. So I went haring off into the sunny fields of AU. (The "Samurai 7" anime adaptation does likewise in the SF line, so there's precedent. ^_^;;;)
  
  I wonder if I can put a url in one of these? Let's give it a shot. Here's another KxK variant, if you'd like. It's by one of the people who suffered through beta-ing mine, and it's along traditional lines:

  Just came across this story quite by accident, and thought it was both very funny and, to an old Kurosawa/Mifune fan like me, heartwarming. Good job!

  Wow. Thanks!

  Very in character. I read this for the second time and it's still entrancing. Thank you for the link as well. That's a thoughtful story. Mindful of the culture, the characters, the story. Nicely rounded, if a bit sad (but that's part of the setting, isn't it?).
