WRITER'S CHOICE ~ "A Small World Indeed."

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

This story deals with Illya befriending an older Russian gentleman who helps him revisit his past.

Why I like this story: I've always enjoyed writing backstories about Illya. I've created a tumultuous and often unhappy past for our favorite blond, and yet somehow he manages to rise above it to be good man and not some sort of crazed killer. It's a past he's reluctant to share with others; being a somewhat prideful and self suffiencient man, he doesn't want others to pity him becuse of his unhappy life.

I hope you enjoy this story again, if not for the first time. If you read my fics, you'll know that I do a lot of cross-referencing between stories...giving the characters a consistent and sometimes complicated background.

Please feel free to comment, if you like. They're always appreciated very much.
