Storm (Leonardo/Usagi | G | 1,844 words): Leonardo becomes ill while visiting Usagi. This is a lovely introspective piece as Usagi contemplates his relationship with Leonardo and their history in between worrying over Leonardo.
Excerpt:
Leonardo had agreed to visit Usagi so that they could enjoy the last moments of autumn together, for the season was the turtle's favourite. At first their time together had been enjoyable, enjoying the conversations that naturally flowed between them and the comfortable silences they shared. The early snow, and subsequent blizzard, had turned their gratifying excursion into a frantic race to reach the Geshu province.
To make matters worse, along the way Leonardo's cold-blood had betrayed the turtle, causing him to quickly develop a chill, which soon developed to a cough. The turtle's voice, which in normal circumstances was already quiet, had become a whisper. They both knew, though neither of them said it aloud, that if Leonardo did not receive some medical attention soon, things would turn even direr for the turtle.
