When I first read this I thought Seto had instigated Hiroshi’s death but now I’m not so sure tbh. This could be just a story of a man who decided to change after a conversation with a child who understood the lessons of accountability better then most adults and have decided that he wasn’t going to let the past dictate his future but to try and make up for everything as best as he could. It’s a pretty great lesson and I kind of flashbacked to the Doma arc of Yu-Gi-Oh a bit because they did explore the whole war retribution angle against KaibaCorp which used to manufacture weapons thing. Hiroshi changing his name to Kaiba again and then deciding to document war crimes and destruction was a great example of Seto’s quote of changing the future. This entire story had a great message to it, and I actually read it with the OC POV this time instead of thinking about what Seto Kaiba was going to do.

Really enjoyed this. You have incredible talent as a writer. Refreshing to read this scenario from a different perspective. Thank you for sharing and inspiring me in my own work!

How did you get the idea? It was very pleasant to read. Awesome story!

Wow I have no words

This was the first time I've read a Kaiba-centric fic and it was absolutely mind blowing.

Really great character study of Seto Kaiba. I really enjoyed reading it. Well done.

Wow...0.0

Wow. Simply wow.
I thought it was brilliantly written.
Well done.

J'adore. Oh, the irony. . . *dies*

The last part of it,Hiroshi's death, probably left a deep surreal sense.

Overall, it was a sort of thriller, to see 2 strong-willed persons exchange opinions; and neither of them was what they'd expected. And through Hiroshi, we get a rather introspective view on Seto,layer after layer.

A nicely done piece. Thanks.

I love these character analysis stories of yours. If I had more than 2 thumbs, I would give it more than 2 thumbs up, but... I love how neatly these stories intermesh with canon, yet how original they are.

Do you write original fiction? If you do, I would love to read it.

Cool! remember reading this fic somewhere else online via a link I found at another site (which has since closed indefinately). I'm so glad I found this again.

I loved this story a lot. It's one of the rare OC-centered stories I enjoyed and Seto was very much in character.

Oh my. Well done. Kaiba Seto has become one of my favorites because he's one of the more complex characters, and I think you've captured that very well. Hiroshi was a very interesting, well-balanced OC; sad what happened to him, but one of my favorite aspects of the fic was that he changed his surname back to Kaiba.

Very well done. Your portrayal of Seto was incredible, and I liked the ending a lot, even if you did kill Hirishi off. Excellent work!

I love it.
