I hope you will get a chance to write more about Kuro and Fai's backstory eventually.
Very true in retrospect, though it's funny how that didn't strike me until I'd already written the first draft of that scene between her and Watanuki.
I think when you're writing, if it's going at all well, you're too wrapped up in the story coming out to think about meta-story issues like that. At least I am. It's only when something isn't working that I step back far enough to see things like that. Or when I'm in the revision phase and realize that I've accidentally created a beautiful set-up for X, or made a parallel structure that I might want to re-use.
Always happy to amuse! And I'm sure Kuro-papa would make sure Syaoran knew a few things. And for all that Fye would be his usually playful self when giving The Talk, I don't think he'd actually skip any critical information. He'd just... encourage a certain, shall we say, style?
