Hm, even as a FuuKam fangirl, I have to admit that I have a soft spot for this couple, so your essay offers an interesting perspective.

As for meta, I'm not sure if this really counts, but Kouri and Karasu have written some fics where they do end up together. Including this one YnM crossover. They're very SeiSub-centered for the most part, but um, they're in there? :D And something is better than nothing?

Also, I don't want to be a bitch about thi, but could you lj-cut the whole essay instead of just parts with a bunch of "..."? It's really screwing up the coding on my f-list. o.x
