Another snippet from my current main WIP, it's only me, what have you got to lose?
After receiving word from Garden about a plot to kidnap Anya, Yor races home to gather what she needs to protect Anya.
Instead, home feels distinctly strange, with suspicious sounds coming from behind Loid's closed door. Opening the door on silent hinges, Yor finds Loid with his back to her: the suspicious sounds coming from whatever he’s doing with what sounds like a gun — ?!
This was one of the first scenes I imagined for the fic: I wanted to know why Yor would ever knowingly draw a weapon on Loid/Twilight, and it turns out it's because he pulls out one on her first! (To be fair to Twilight, his initial reaction was also entirely reflexive) I'm pretty pleased with how the action reads here and throughout the opening scenes of this fic overall. I’m looking forward to writing more ☺️
