I made it about 3 paragraphs in, realized this was a story about SPACE PIRATES, and promptly lost my shit. This hit every note for me, no joke. I love the fusion of sci-fi and fantasy more than I can say, and I love stories about pirates, especially SPACE PIRATES. (I'm sorry, there is no way for me to write that without capslock.) I loved Sakura and Fai so much in this story, and I thought the development of the relationship between Kurogane and Fai was really well-paced and natural. That bit where Fai just leans back on him and opens up the possibility felt so effortless and yet so important.

For a short story, this was absolutely fantastic. But I feel no qualms about encouraging you to make it into a longer story with more world-building, more futuristic magic, and the epic space adventures of SPACE PIRATES.
