An Unseen Kindness chapter two!

Wow. I am so behind. I take six weeks to update and six weeks to blog. *sigh* I'm sorry.

So, Chapter two, which still has no title.

I.. I don't have as much to say about this chapter. It was kinda filler, really. Ken beating himself up a bit, hanging out with Wormmon and talking to his mom, and seeing what went down with Matt.

"You didn't know." the green digimon whispered, leaping up onto the boy's lap.
"I should have, though. I should have." Ken said bitterly, ducking his head"

I feel like they have this conversation every few days. Ken really has been beating himself up for this- which I think it pretty canon, because when they're all facing MaloMyotismon, he sent them into visions where they- I dunno, got their heart's desire, or something- and Ken's was really heartbreaking. He didn't get sam back, or see a world where he'd never been evil, his dream- they were in the dream world place- his dream was to be punished for what he'd done. This kid is 11 and that was what he wanted more than anything. It's so sad. I tried to capture that. Ken honestly doesn't think he can make up for what he did, honestly thinks he will never belong in the Digital world.

moving on- Ken witnesses the events of chapter 2 of A Fading Hope. That was fun, to write it from an outside point of view, an over view rather than the very limited this-is-what-TK-knows-is-happening point of view. That was nice. there will be several other instances of this, of Ken seeing things happen.

And then my AN promising postings. I AM working on the song fic, by the way.
I'll post later tonight about chapter three, which i just posted

  1. You think not a lot happened, but you needed this chapter to create a character to work off of. With your previous two stories in this mini-series History Repeats, all of the main characters have appeared in two epic fics--except Ken, who only appeared as the bad guy in the first fic. We needed this to actually see him as a person.

    I love your comments about Ken's desire. Having yet to actually finish watching 02 (maybe next summer/Christmas?), I have seen that noteworthy episode, and I didn't realize that. That is so incredibly depressing...but it's also a show of his character, that he really does feel remorse...

    Nice to see you active again!
