Fic Update: The Trains Never Stop in Shin-Yokohama
The Trains Never Stop in Shin-Yokohama: Chapter 2
Rating: T
Pairing: Kantarou Kei/Tsujigiri Nagiri
Words: 3400 (or so)
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/48195826/chapters/125635465
The continuation of a strange, apocalyptic fic. Two thoughts on it that I find compelling:
I did a lot of thinking about Kantarou's personality in main timeline vs Uso. This Uso Kantarou might be softer than expected (trending towards Main, but with more self-awareness), but his worldview was flipped recently. But it you want the pragmatic, vengeful Uso Kantarou, stay tuned for Chapter 3.
"If in the first act you have hung a pistol on the wall, then in the following one it should be fired. Otherwise don't put it there." There's a very funny (to me) Chekhov's Gun in this story. Keen readers might be able to guess what it actually is. I hope readers are surprised and/or horrified with the conclusion.

netflix really translated y-dan oji-san into Dirty Talking Dude and made him introduce himself that way in the eng subs, instead of keeping it as ydan 💀

Fic Update/Conclusion
The Trains Never Stop in Shin-Yokohama: Chapters 3 and 4
Rating: T
Pairing: Kantarou Kei/Tsujigiri Nagiri
Words: 4000 (or so, total length 9732)
Links: https://archiveofourown.org/works/48195826/chapters/133033468 (chapter 3) and https://archiveofourown.org/works/48195826/chapters/133324243 (chapter 4)
The conclusion of this apocalyptic adventure fic. I’m proud of this story for a couple of reasons.
First, it was a fun to write for a character who isn’t necessarily very smart, but also has a very lively and layered inner world. Kantarou definitely fits this bill. I gave him more self awareness because of the Uso timeline, but I hope I conveyed he has a very specific outlook.
In a longer story I could have dug more into my thoughts on it. I think there’s a lot to be said about Kantarou’s complicated and flawed senses of social responsibility, compassion, and justice, no matter which timeline is being presented. I get the impression most fans sympathize more with Nagiri, at least from a fanfic POV perspective, but I gravitated hard to the would-be-paladin who wields heavy machinery. Thus, we are here.
Second, this was challenge for how I approached dialogue. I’ve written a lot for the Fate franchise over the past few years, where many characters are quite eloquent. There are some characters who fit this bill in VampDies (given the number of professional authors and editors), but our heroes in this piece are not that. I repeatedly had to rewrite dialogue while thinking to myself “Simpler! No, even more simple! With more yelling!”
That’s basically my closing thoughts on the piece. I hope people enjoy it, even if it’s kinda weird and for an alternate timeline.
