Sympathy, as in "stranger than your"; review plx Options

[Dr Strum]

Sympathy

Hoo boy. You know that Feral is feeling particularly bored and random when she decides to write a story about AYMIA, of all people. Yes, Aymia. The girl we see on the Gravity Chaos card. No, I don't know either. It came from Mars, like all the random things in the world.

Anyway, this one is spoilerific (for Nessiah) and semicoherent to Clover-esque* levels. If you can correctly interpret what in the world is going on, you get a cybercookie. And if you also guess where Maduin's name came from, you get extra brownie points.




[[*Clover = famous manga by CLAMP. Very, very hard to understand. But very cool once you can get past the crappy translation and the stand-alone bits and pieces of the highly fragmented story.]]

You. Made. Me. Cry.

I cannot believe it. I have read countless books by 'professionals' and this has never happened. But that oneshot... wow. Geez. Nothing but praise here.

And I think I know what's going on.

Nessiah released Aymia, or was otherwise present when she was fully discarded from Asgard for her 'sins', having already suffered extensively, and when he figured out she was beyond help made a tactics card in her image.

I'm flattered~. Didn't expect something as simple as this to have an emotional impact like that on people. |D

And you've got half of it. Now you just need the story behind it (as in why, exactly, Aymia got kicked out) and you'll win that cybercookie~.

I thought that was the easy bit... anyway...

From what I can gather, the sin of debasement. She had a loving, probably physical relationship with Maduin, a mortal, and clearly the gods/magi didn't like this one bit. Being the cruel, sadistic bastards they are, she was condemned, and the rest of the angel population shared the sentiment.
