and you're sure

A Hiro-centric Gravitation fanfic, written in October of last year.
It can be seen as a companion fic to Where It All Led, but it's not a direct sequel.

( Really, what he does and does not remember can be counted in years. )

(A bit of backstory: Anais Mitchell has a song called Orion (which the lyrics in this fic are from), which is about a drummer who commits suicide. Somehow, my brain consistently managed to relate this to Hiro. And, well, this was the result.
Luckily, this story is a lot happier than the song.)

Title is from "Blue Light of the Flame" by Dar Williams; lyrics are from "Bright Lights" by Carbon Leaf.

( When their final concert ends, the afterwards is heralded by the same silence that fills the halls of NG after they finish an album; it’s the same quiet mourning that eclipses the space left between the footsteps in the practice rooms and the slow whir and thump of the janitors and their machines. )

This fic doesn't feel right to me, so much so that it hasn't been added to my masterlist yet, but I can't quite put my finger on the problem. Comments/critiques?
