FK Fanfic: "How He Loves"

[brightknightie]

"How He Loves" was my return to writing fanfiction after a too-long break.  I posted it to fkfic-l on the tenth anniversary of the first airing of "Last Knight," not because it has anything to do with LK, but because, ten years on, we were still there.  Memorial and celebration.  Now it's twelve years on.  And here we still are.  And the airwaves bloom with new shows not entirely unlike our beloved Forever Knight.  Though of course none will ever again be FK, flashbacks and fantasy, mystery and metaphysics, dear friends and days gone by.

(In passing, while this is not a song-challenge story, it was very much inspired by the Air Supply hit "Making Love out of Nothing at All."  There's this game in which every song is an FK filk.  If FK were a pop-rock musical, "Making Love Out of Nothing at All" -- taken down an octave or more, natch -- would be to Lacroix what "Stars" is to Javert.)
