Fandom: xxxHOLiC
Length: 2024 words
Prompt: n/a
Pairing: Clow/Yuuko; slight Yue/Clow implied (#2)

Fandom: xxxHOLiC
Length: 1352 words

Pairing: Clow/Yuuko
Other: This is rather... cracky. And obviously AU given the prompt.

Excerpt: Yuuko pulled free from the man's grasp, and Watanuki could have swore she elbowed him in the nose, but when he turned back to Watanuki, he seemed just fine, and not phased in the slightest. "I'm sorry for not introducing myself," he said. "Clow Reed. It's a pleasure to meet you. But you can call me Papa if you'd like."
