Projection-kun! (FGO Fanfiction)

Interlude 2- Farewell

You may be wondering, why am I posting a chapter so late? Well it's simple really. I'm going to go on another hiatus. Familiar face 5 was supposed to release today, as prior before this when the Sakura SS was being made, familiar faces 5 was also being made. 

But because of certain circumstances, which is quite gruesome for me, I had to postpone familiar faces 5. The Sakura SS was actually rushed, I wished that I could have actually said this on the Sakura SS, but the problem only intensified now.  

So I will be going hiatus for about two weeks, don't expect this to be legit. It may be a month depending on my recovery. 

Basically the context is, as you may have not known, I have been ice skating for 2 years, specifically in speed skating, now unfortunately my ankles broke. Since I pressed on the brakes too hard when trying to avoid a child right in front of me. 

If I ever have energy to write while I'm recovering, yeah I think I'll do that

Artoria knew that miracles don't last forever. She knew that when staring at the redhead sleeping at the floor, seemingly exhausted from school. But she does know one thing, she can cherish that miracle for as long as it last.

Approaching the sleeping redhead, she nudged his body gently while softly calling out his name. A gracious smile adorned her face while her gentle stare was heartwarming.

Shirou could only groan after waking up before his eyes shot open and he saw Artoria's smile. He stared at her smile for a few moments, starstrucked by such a smile.

Shirou, without much thought, smiled softly as how Artoria too smiled. Artoria snapping out of her own thoughts dropped the smile and looked away. 

...

Artoria knew that miracles don't last forever, a part of her too was also convinced that she deserved none of these. But if she was branded as a sinner by spending her time with a miracle, then she would gladly plunge herself in hell.

At the top of a hill with a soft smile while staring at the dawn of the sun. Her face was contemplative, it didn't have an expression, her facial muscles were extremely relaxed.

Only then a small tear ran through her cheeks, dropping at the ground. Turning her body around she stared at Shirou who was also standing there.

She smiled, albeit quite a painful one. A few tears were running through her cheeks. And... only then Shirou smiled.

The both of them knew this was farewell, and even still. 

Farewells... are beautiful...

Artoria's body disappeared in a flash of light. A painful smile left on Shirou's face staring at the motes of light that used to be her body.
