Why this must be read:

This story strives to reflect the ending credits of Noir. It is pretty, and has the same sense of quiet intensity of the anime, though with a decidedly more peaceful mood. It’s a bit more poetic than I imagine either of these women, but nonetheless, I’d like to think that this is a possibility for Kirika and Mireille, after all they’ve been through.

Daylight pries at the corners of her eyelids, and she opens them slowly to golden softness. For just a moment, she is disoriented; her surroundings are not immediately familiar. Then she remembers where she is, and the realization brings a dizzying, pleasant feeling to replace her split-second panic.

Everything is as it should be.
