So I really wanted to do a Bad Day story, since Fly and Ru also had that box on their boards and they both released stories with that theme this week. Unlike them though, I decided to go with a game I haven't written fic for yet - Perfect World. This takes place 3 years pre-game, so it is during the Fushigi Yugi 'canon'. But since our characters have differences from the canon ones, this is sort of not fanfiction. Kind of. Not really sure?
So, I play Tamahome in PW. So I decided to go with the worst day that the guy ever had. CONGRATS TAMAHOME, YOUR FAMILY IS DEAD. LOVE, SUBOSHI.
Who: Miaka, Tamahome, sort of Nuriko
What: Dead family angst, bad priestess angst
Where: The graves outside of the farming village
When: Right before the gang goes north to Hokkan
Why: Schmoop = angst with hugs, apparently. Also, I thought the canon's treatment of Tamahome dealing with his family's death was kinda ass. So I fixed it to my taste.
There was no reason to think my family would be exempt

It also makes me happy that YAY FAMILY IS BACK in PW!
