A/N: Written forwhite_ashes07. Ash, I remember getting notification for your approaching birthday but then I totally forgot about it, so please accept my apology and this little belated b’day drabble for you. I hope you'd like it ^^
Snagged the title from the song "Melody in the Sky" by Mai Kuraki coz I couldn't come up with any title at all, but this isn't a song fic. and all I can think about when seeing the prompt 'harp' is 'angel', so yeah...
~Melody in the Sky~
In a vast, beautiful landscape, a melodious sound of a harp floated throughout the open field, carried by the soft, warm breeze that gently blew the honey tresses of its player. The harpist sat on top of a small hill overlooking a field of colorful flowers, seemingly absorbed in the beauty of his surroundings, and the music created by those slender fingers of his own. A pair of white wings elegantly folded behind his back.
The melody slowly stopped as the angel sensed another presence near him, and he glanced up to see another angel descended from the blue sky. He smiled as his friend graciously landed on one foot, then he greeted, “Hello, Tezuka.”
“Fuji,” the other greeted back as he folded his wings and dropped himself next to the harpist.
“How was your visit to the mortal world?” Fuji attempted a conversation. A sigh escaped his companion’s lips, and he chuckled at that. “Must be tough being a god candidate,” Fuji lightly remarked.
“You were supposed to be one too,” Tezuka reminded him, his tone of voice told Fuji that the taller angel still hadn’t accepted his declining for the offer.
“Oh, come on,” Fuji let out a small laugh, “I won’t fit to be a god anyway, why even bother being a candidate?”
“You have the capacity of being one,” Tezuka persisted. Fuji could understand that Tezuka had always seen him as his greatest rival and thought that if he could do it, surely Fuji would also be able to do so.
Smiling, Fuji went, “I don’t particularly find humans adorable, you know. I don’t want to grow bald thinking about those selfish creatures’ well-beings. I’m fine with my current job. I enjoy scaring demons away.”
“That’s an understatement of your position, General of the Special Anti-Riot Force.”
Fuji thought he heard a smile on the tone Tezuka was using, and when he turned his head to confirm this, there was indeed the slightest of a smile on Tezuka’s face, contrasting the tired lines he had all over his face.
“I wonder if the other candidates are as tired as you are,” Fuji commented as he took off his friend’s glasses and pressed his thumb gently between Tezuka’s brows. The dark-haired angel grunted softly as he closed his eyes, feeling his potential migraine starting to ease away.
“I heard Atobe was going to have a massage in his mansion before attending the meeting later on, and Yukimura said he’s going to do some meditation with Sanada,” Tezuka replied.
“When is the meeting going to start?” Fuji asked again while gently kneading his thumbs on either side of Tezuka’s temple.
“In about an hour and a half,” Tezuka answered. Feeling his head getting a lot better, Tezuka then murmured, “That’s enough, Fuji, thank you.”
Fuji pulled his hands from Tezuka’s head and picked up his harp once more. “You have enough time before the meeting. Go lie down a bit; I’ll play the harp for you. That’s why you came here, right?”
“Ah,” Tezuka admitted dropping himself on his back, resting his head on his folded arms.
Fuji smiled and began playing the instrument in his hands again, nimble fingers skillfully strumming the strings with every intention of lulling his tired companion to sleep. Serene and relaxing melody began to fill the air and resonate through the sky, giving the sense of tranquility.
Tezuka finally let himself drifted into slumber.
~NeverEnding~
A/N: No, it's not a part of a series or something, so don't expect any sequel or prequel or whatever. I suck at AU's XD;;
The idea of "Candidate for god" came from a manga called "Sensei no Susume" by Saenagi Ryou. Anyone has read that manga? :D
So... um yeah, I'm not so sure about this, but I hope it's at least enjoyable. Reviews would be loved, thank you!

Date: 2009-03-12 04:03 pm (UTC)But in Indonesia, we have 2 concepts of God, and they also have different terms. The 'God' as in 'Allah' or 'Jesus', is 'Tuhan' in Indonesian, while 'God' as in the Gods in Greek or Roman mythology, or the Gods in Japanese belief (you know Japanese have lots of Gods ne? XD) are called 'Dewa'. The concept of Dewa is much more like mythical and fictional being than the real God (Tuhan). While writing this, the God that I mention here was this 'Dewa' so it doesn't bother me. But since English only has one term for them which is 'God', I can understand that you don't like it. Since in my head Tezuka is a candidate for 'Dewa', I'm okay with it. But I would've been bothered too, to hear that there are candidates for 'Tuhan' ^^
Anyway thanks! I also thought that position suits Fuji very much, ne? XD
no subject
Date: 2009-03-12 04:14 pm (UTC)I knew you also believe in one God, so I was a bit surprised when I read that Tezuka was a candidate for god, but now I understand. Thanks for explaining ^_^
Yes, it suits him perfectly! XD

And Fuji is just Fuji, angel or not, ne? :p

Date: 2009-03-12 04:31 pm (UTC)I liked the setting of the story, 'cause I've always had a fascination (sort of) with heaven's hierarchy (well, something like that, at least). And it's so like Fuji to refuse a high status just because he doesn't want it, LOL. And I guess their level of companionship is pretty high, ne, since they seem so comfortable with each other. It's like Fuji is the one who could soothe all of Tezuka's problems away. So cute!
Oh, and about the conflict on having only one God (I just read it in one of the comments, and I'm so sorry for butting in). I don't really have any problems with it when it comes to fiction, but I usually see the term "God" when referring to the one supreme being, and "god" (not capitalized) when it's a demi-god (pardon the lack of an appropriate term), like those in myths.

Date: 2009-03-12 05:05 pm (UTC)And don't we all know how 'high' their level of companionship is? *grins*
About the God and god, i've edited it and de-capitalized the 'G's. I didn't know bout it since I'm used to having 2 different terms, so I thought they're the same. Sorry bout that, and thanks for telling! :3
