"When you first get to see your shinki's history, you obviously aren't going to remember every single image. Sure, that was still the case when I first named Yukiné, but I do remember his more vividly than that of any other servant I've ever branded. But what should I expect? Watching the memories of life and death from someone you yourself killed is... not exactly what I'd call forgettable." A headcanon/au of Yukiné's life before death narrated by Yato. (The manga canon is currently 82 chapters in as of the writing of this. Future chapters may contradict this fan theory.) (includes a foreword for the sake of anime-only fans to be able to understand the context of the fanfic) WARNING: mature content such as child abuse and alcoholism
