"Tell me," he says, and so she does, filling all the nights that never were with the only stories she can – her feelings (and she glows so bright he can almost feel the moon trembling below him, a thousand thousand hearts beneath his hands) her memories (like precious pages in a child's sketchbook, but changed and blurred as a thousand thousand days might do) her body, opening under his touch – and those thousand thousand moments unshatter into just one night, one hollow knight that she can never fill – and still she isn't sure if she has truly saved her life.

Wow. ♥

Points for weird pairings, points for beautiful imagrey, and WORSHIP for that last line. You're amazing, to pack that much awesome into 100 words.

Heh, Nami/Saix...OTP? XD

"One night, hollow knight". That is my favourite line. Love!

*melts* I absolutely adore the 'thousand thousand' over and over, in such a small word count it's blaringly affective. And 'one night, one hollow knight'. And the very last bit. Gaaah. I love every word here and you picked the best title ever for them. Huge love for you!

What a fitting title. I wouldn't have imagined the story you conjured along with it in a thousand thousand nights.

A weird couple but I sorta like it. Kai/Sai=OTP.
