Gintama fic: Resuscitation 1/3

[xparrot]

So I've written GinZura - but not happy OTP-compliant GinZura. Er, sorry? It's the same character continuum as "Everyone's got to write their own happy ending," but with far more sex and angst. Joui war angst, so about as un-Gintama in mood as it gets. Yeah, I dunno. Warnings for that and sadness and misleading fluff and not-very-graphic consensual sex between young men. Also potential OOC - since there's so little canon backstory to work with, the characterizations are mostly my own invention, though they may betray influence from various Joui-4 doujinshi I've read.

Gintama: Resuscitation, 1/3 {3,362 words}
R; Gintoki/Katsura, Joui war-era
"For a while Katsura tells himself that it's no more than the camaraderie of the battleground."

"The first time Katsura encounters an Amanto stun-shield, he literally doesn't know what hit him."

Yeah, this is definitely not standard Gintama - but I can't help but crave some drama now and again. ^^; And the few fleeting references to the war always sound hellish, not a fun or funny time at all (which is probably why there's never been any extended flashback to it...) We know from what Otose's said that Gintoki was fairly broken from it for a long time after, anyway...

...oh, Gin-san, I'm sorry I love you (and your pain...)
