Told in third-person limited through Kevin, which has some... [[UnreliableNarrator interesting results]].



* UnreliableNarrator: Holy, Kevin! Even in third person. He's got the best of intentions, really, but his perceptions of the way Ben is acting towards him are much harsher than Ben means them to. This is just one of a few examples...

Focuses on Kevin, a fairly unpopular character in the fandom because canonically, Kevin doesn't necessarily take the side of the good guys-- he's on the side that benefits him the most. In this case, he's on the good side, but he gets upset when he doesn't get what he wants.

A FusionFall fanfic by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/699942/ razzamatazz73]].

The war is messing with [[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce Kevin]]'s life-- he's stuck doing behind the scenes work when he'd rather be fighting, he doesn't have time to spend with his girlfriend ([[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce Gwen]], as established in canon), and worst of all, he's growing jealous of [[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce Ben's]] friendship with [[WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory Dexter]].

He finds kindred spirits in post-amnesia [[WesternAnimation/PowerpuffGirls Buttercup]], whose relationship with Ace has taken a mature turn. While things are happy for a while, the fact of the matter is, they're children fighting a war. And every war has casualties...
