Title: Bittersweet Sweetness Part 12
Fandom: The Legend of Sun Knight
Words: 1,919
Summary: Instead of receiving a brooch that dresses him in an assassin's clothes, Sun receives a trinket that switches his consciousness around with Judgment's. Now, Judgment must find out the mystery behind the Death Knight in Sun's stead. Problem is, imitating Sun's poor swordsmanship is no easy feat, and who knew what Sun was doing with Judgment's body in the meantime? Alternate telling of the end of volume 1 of the novels.
Notes: Ahhh, I missed my self-imposed schedule of finishing a part every two days! I managed it for... 7 parts. Looks like I'll be slowing down now (but I blame the fact that this section ended up long). Have to focus on some other writing, but I'm so afraid I'll let this die off like all my other WIPs.

Part 12 - Sun
Damn Lesus! Stupid Lesus!
Why was I cursing my best friend at such an early hour? It's because he is such a hard-worker that he would never miss a meeting, and he would never be late to a meeting, while I am a lazy ass who almost never attends meetings, and am almost always late when I do attend. Since I was currently Judgment, that meant I had to pull myself up at the break of dawn so that I could get myself to this meeting on time, and it also meant Lesus wouldn't even be there for me to glare at because he was "Sun" at the moment, and Sun never attended meetings.
Sometimes, I really wanted to curse myself too.
I stifled a yawn.
"Did you not get enough sleep yesterday, Judgment?" asked Metal worriedly by my side.
What, not even an attempt at barbed words? He sure acted differently around Judgment. If it weren't because Leaf, who was too nice to comment that Metal wasn't being enough of a bastard, was sitting across from me in my sight, I'd have thought it was Leaf asking after me! He'd sounded so concerned!
"Paperwork," I said, giving a nod to the stack of papers in my hand.
"Is it just me, or does your paperwork smell like lavender?"
"It's just you," I said dryly, thinking it would have been better if Metal had tried for poisonous words instead of stating the obvious, but to my left Moon started sniffing the air after hearing our conversation. That only made him look even haughtier than usual with how he had his chin permanently jutted upwards.
"I think I smell it too..." he said. "Reminds me of my girlfriend's perfume."
Geez, thanks Moon. You don't have to rub it in all the time that you have a girlfriend. Besides, I doubt your girlfriend's perfume smells as nice as my paperwork!
Moon gave me a strange look down his nose -- I really hated it whenever he looked down at me even though that's the only way he can look at anyone in the eye with that stiff neck of his -- and said something that made me want to slap my forehead despite how much his words had enlightened me.
"Where were you last night?" asked Moon. "Ice asked me to tell you that he had your platoon members healed and out patrolling, but you didn't seem to be in your room."
So the curse of the body mask had taken effect once again! Except, I wasn't in "my" room to get disturbed! Hah, don't you dare call me a liar, Lesus! I crowed silently to myself. Out loud, I said, "I must have been asleep already."
"But you just said you were up late because of paperwork..." he said in confusion.
I only said "paperwork". You made your own conclusions!
At that very moment, Blaze arrived just in time with a kick to the already open door, and in followed the rest of the holy knights. Moon promptly forgot he was asking me a question that could have backed me into a corner. If he'd have continued asking though, I'd have told him that paperwork was just that tiring. I'm pretty sure if I hadn't done the paperwork in the presence of my good friend Lesus, I would have fallen asleep from looking at the first page of gibberish. Surely Moon would allow "Judgment" that much after having battled a Death Lord?
When everyone finally arrived and sat down, they all turned to look at me.
Right, I'm supposed to conduct the meeting...
I tried to think back to what Lesus had told me yesterday about the meeting. Damn him for not being here. There were two empty spots among those who were present in the conference room today. One belonged to the Sun Knight -- why would I want to attend a meeting like this when I could be sleeping? -- and the other belonged to the carefree Storm Knight who is free like the wind, which meant if there's a meeting to be skipped, he skips it.
In reality, Storm was probably holed up in his room at this very moment, slaving over endless paperwork. Sucks to be him.
I was about to open my mouth to praise the God of Light for gathering all of my brothers here today when I remembered just in time that I didn't need to and wasn't supposed to do that. I could save my breath and actually get to the point!
"Reports?" I asked, inwardly rejoicing at how little I needed to speak.
Each of them gave a short report about something or another. I listened and nodded, though I didn't pay much attention to what they were blabbering about. I did hear what they were saying, so if Lesus were to ask me to repeat what went on during the meeting, I could rattle off word-by-word what Earth or Leaf or any of the others had said during the meeting. Taxes, salaries, platoon discipline, new paperwork to distribute, blah, blah, blah...
"And then Sun furiously stabbed the Death Knight straight through the chest!" Blaze exclaimed in the middle of informing us about the Death Knight.
I nodded absentmindedly, filing Blaze's report to the back of my mind.
Wait, did Blaze just claim that "Sun" had become a master swordsman with swordsmanship that rivaled even that of the Judgment Knight's on one of his good days? Blaze, what's with this embellished tale!?
Earth and Leaf were both staring at Blaze in fascination as Blaze continued with his exuberant recounting of "Sun's" amazing swordsmanship, complete with hand motions for each strike and parry. I couldn't tell if Cloud was staring or not, because like usual, I couldn't even see his face, but he had his head cocked to the side like a puppy might do in rapt attention.
"I-I wonder if y-you may have m-m-mistaken some other p-person for our d-dear S-Sun Knight?" stammered Earth.
"I'm not making this up!" Blaze exclaimed while pounding the table to make his point. "I could've sworn the hooded figure wasn't Sun with how he practically glided with his sword, but then the hood came off and there he was! I don't know how he did it, but he managed to impale the Death Knight. Now that was impressive! It was definitely Sun! Just ask Ice! He was there too!"
Everyone turned to look at Ice. Ice inclined his head ever so slightly. If it had only been Blaze, everyone might've questioned if Blaze had encountered an impostor or a look-alike, but Ice's contribution tilted Blaze's observation into the realm of the real.
"Judgment was there too!" Blaze continued to say.
Everyone turned to look at me.
"When I fought next to him, he lit up the sky with holy light," I said. Like a light show.
That seemed to convince everyone that the person Blaze encountered was the Sun Knight.
Earth started muttering under his breath. What he said suspiciously sounded like, "Is the end of the world coming? That has to be it. Nothing short of the end of the world can turn Sun into a master swordsman," but of course he was the Earth Knight, Sun's best friend, so how could he be badmouthing the Sun Knight?
Haha, very funny, Earth.
I didn't want to admit, however, that even the end of the world probably would not be enough to spur me into becoming one with my sword, at least not in the normal sense. It was more likely that I'd end up skewering myself!
"So the Sun Knight has improved his remarkable and unique swordsmanship?" questioned Metal in his strange mockery of a poison tongue. Wow, he managed to make my swordsmanship sound pretty good.
"If the Sun Knight actually knows how to wield a sword that well..." Stone trailed off after his oh-so-helpful speculation, but the damage was done.
If the Sun Knight actually knows how to wield a sword that well, and he knows holy magic and elemental magic, then aren't we all doomed?
All of the Twelve Holy Knights who were present, except for me, stared at each other in rising horror. Okay, I didn't know about Cloud since I still couldn't see his face, and Ice's expression never changed, so I couldn't really tell if he was staring in horror or not, but you get the point. Besides, I think his eyes might have widened by a millimeter or something like that.
To my surprise, it was Cloud who spoke up for me.
"The Sun Knight loathes dark creatures," he said very quietly without looking at anyone, reciting what was pretty much a statement right out of our textbooks. For him, that statement was probably the be-all and end-all of the argument. The Sun Knight hates dark creatures. Of course he can display awesome swordsmanship when it came to dealing with dark creatures!
May the benevolence of the God of Light bless Brother Cloud on this beautiful morning!
As soon as that thought crossed my mind, I froze, unable to believe what kind of language had just invaded my thoughts. Was I so deprived of speaking in the most difficult manner possible that I had to mentally speak that way to myself!? Ugh.
Still, I was grateful that Cloud had just given me an out. I was going to take it.
"The Sun Knight is an expert when it comes to dealing with dark creatures," I said calmly to end their gossiping. When they didn't look convinced, I added, "It's just Sun."
A look of sudden realization came across many faces. It was just Sun! Absurd and unpredictable Sun with millions of tricks up his sleeves! Why, thank you all for your confidence in me...
"That is all," I said. "Knight-Captain Blaze, tell us about the Death Knight."
Blaze looked like he was still stuck on the subject of "Sun" and "awesome swordsmanship", not that I could blame him since even I never thought my name and "awesome swordsmanship" would ever go hand-in-hand. I would have loved to enjoy my sudden rise in swordsmanship fame, except I hated how that came along with dragging my horrid sword skills out in the open. I couldn't stand their obvious disbelief either! I know my horrid skill level is the brutal truth, but could we just drop it already...? Just wait, and they'll think I've been hiding my skill, or that I've magically become more than competent with a sword, and then they'll be expecting me to be that good with a sword even when Lesus and I switch back...
I stared at Blaze until he dropped his gaze and glanced at the others who were present instead. "The Death Knight has become a Death Lord! The king has heard about it and has declared the kingdom to be in a high state of emergency. He wants to see Sun," Blaze finally declared.
After that, Blaze informed everyone about the Death Lord's physical appearance and the skills he had displayed during the battle. I organized patrols, making sure we had a sufficient number patrolling at all times. I was pretty sure the king was going to send out his royal knights too.
Roland wasn't going to have an easy time. For his sake, I hoped he was in hiding.
For my sake, I hoped Lesus stopped displaying "awesome swordsmanship". I was never going to be able to live up to that!

to be continued
Too many holy knights!! Stone gets a throwaway line since we don't know any of his characterization yet based off what we know from volumes 1 and 2. Grisia only mentions two empty spots even though the Hell Knight isn't there either since he is normally not there.
(I do believe the Hell Knight Vice-Captain takes his place in meetings, but writing the vice captain would be a spoiler for those who have not read past volume 2, so I've left that out).
I should have just gone with "Blaze thought it highly imperative that he share with everyone "Sun's" amazing swordsmanship during the meeting. It took great control on my part not to protest their responses to Blaze's claim, but in the end, I managed to divert their attention."
There, entire part done in two sentences. XD;

Sad thing is, that sounds more plausible than him becoming a master swordsman. XD
On another note, good job with this chapter! I love this fic, and I hope that you don't drop it! :)

Btw, have you read the 吾命天子 series? They're an LSK au featuring the characters in imperial china, I think. I can't read traditional chinese that well but I enjoyed what I could decipher. You might like it. Just google the characters to find the fic.

I feel Sun shouldn't be happy at all about this since... this means there's a curse! (unless he's just over-imagining things) XD; Wouldn't it be nicer if there were no curse at all? But he's just overjoyed that he proved his point to himself... XD;

He was just that thankful to Cloud. XDDD
I'm so bad at writing more than two characters in a scene. This was a challenge. :3 Half the time, it's still just only two people talking, and it looks like I had Sun mostly thinking to himself instead of actually participating in the conversation. Suddenly writing so many of the holy knights was hard too... I completely blanked out. XD; But whoot, I got this part done in one part just as planned! \o/

"I feel Sun shouldn't be happy at all about this since... this means there's a curse!"
Sun's already been cursed with choosing the wrong profession. :P
"But he's just overjoyed that he proved his point to himself... XD;"
'AHA! See! I'm right, Lesus! I am cursed! ...Wait, why am I saying it like it's a good thing?!'
"I gave up on writing his speech after one line from him. XD"
So much stuttering! XDD Hmm. The Earth I wrote should probably have more. I think he only stutters...once?
"and it looks like I had Sun mostly thinking to himself instead of actually participating in the conversation."
Haha, Sun wouldn't want to join in the conversation anyway! XD And Judgement probably/maybe doesn't speak that much either in the meetings unless it's to bring people to order.
"But whoot, I got this part done in one part just as planned! \o/"
\o/

Date: 2011-10-01 12:18 am (UTC)Haha, yeah, "Judgment" has the best smelling paperwork. XDDD
Sun's already been cursed with choosing the wrong profession. :P
Oh Sun, even though you're terrible with a sword, you could have been even more terrifying than you are now if you chose a different profession. XD
'AHA! See! I'm right, Lesus! I am cursed! ...Wait, why am I saying it like it's a good thing?!'
XDDD!!!
I'm probably overdoing it with making him stutter that much in a single sentence. XD; I'm not sure I'm making him stutter at the right words or beginning sounds. Or maybe Earth doesn't stutter at the right sounds anyway since he's faking it... But yeah, that sentence is a pain to read now. XD;; Oh, oh, you wrote Earth for no_true_pair then? :3
Haha, the more Sun speaks, the more he might give himself away. XD What if he accidentally voiced one of his thoughts out loud? XD;;

Yeeeeep. X3 I don't think it matters where he stutters for that reason.
"Oh, oh, you wrote Earth for no_true_pair then? :3"
Yep! Once. With Storm. XDDD (Of course. *snerk*)

Date: 2011-09-30 06:25 pm (UTC)i also think it's impressive that you portray the characters so realistically. mind you, i'm not too familiar with them, but when i read your fics, i sometimes find myself wondering if it really is 'just' fictional, because their (inter-)actions seem to be what they would in the novels.
keep up the good work!
p.s. my respects for actually being capable of writing sun's eloquent speech

Date: 2011-10-01 01:11 am (UTC)I try my best to keep the characters in character! Though for characters like Metal and Moon, I feel I'm possibly just stretching what little we know of them too much. Next time, I won't have much for Sun to comment on them about!
Hehe, Sun's eloquent speech is a killer, though I've mostly weaseled my way out of that. Lesus as Sun hasn't had to use much eloquent speech yet.

Date: 2011-10-01 08:14 am (UTC)it's not surprising that those characters are harder to do, since they haven't had played any major part in the novels (yet?)
well, it IS a killer, but tbh, if you examine it closely, there seems to be some pattern to his speeches
