I don't know if it was purely the associations with the anime or if I'm just feeling a bit hormonal or what, but... holy shit. You actually made me shed tears. Over fanfic. I don't think that's ever happened before. o_o
You should totally fix the broken italics tag (:-P) and make this public! I think you should even publish it on FFN, really. It's brilliant. :D While I love all of the little cross-references, I don't think it's necessary at all to know Madoka to enjoy the fic. The concept really works with Radiant Dawn quite beautifully.
I'd tell you all the stuff I liked, but 1. it's late, and 2. I think I'd be here forever. I think the aspects I liked most were using Yune in place of Kyubey - it's just so perfect, in a way I never would have really considered before - and the beginning of the final year, when it's too painful for Soren to go through the entire process of letting himself grow close to Ike yet again. ;_____; (Perhaps predictably though, the penultimate scene is what got me, if you're curious. :-P The headband. Just... </3 I knew it was coming, and it still killed me.)
So yes, in conclusion, this is awesome, and you should show it off. :D
