Hello?
Oh, hi there Muse! How's Tahiti?
Really? The waitstaff are shirtless when they bring you your drinks?
Yes, I'm aware Polynesian men are on the muscular side.
Well I don't frequently refer to other men in those terms, but I have no doubt they are attractive.
No I really don't want to know what you're doing in lieu of tips.
Really, that level of detail is unnecessary.
How have I been? Great... things are great...
Yes, I've written.
A few drabbles.
No, no fic just yet.
How long did it take me? Oh, no longer than usual. Just a day... or... twenty.
No no no... take your time. No need to rush back.
Yes, I'm aware you've earned a vacation.
Yes, it's been a good year and a half.
No, I'm not at all scoffing at 75K words. Or the performance under pressure with deadlines and all.
Yes, I'm fine with missing ficathon this year.
Please, I don't need that level of detail about the cabana boy.
I will, you take care yourself.
Bye.
Oh. Hello there everyone. I can still write! I have Friday Drabbles...
...from two weeks ago.
For
mrcrybrilliance Fandom: SM/Narnia Crossover
Characters: Rei, Susan
Prompt: Archery Contest
Susan considered the arrow for a moment, bringing all her focus to the slim missile.
Archery was a delicate art that required total focus.
And to bring magic into the equation, well, that was a challenge.
Still, she had enough righteous fury in her to summon the Phoenix and send it to punish the wicked.
“Your majesty! Please! Have mercy!”
“Why should she, Jadeite? Were you NOT staring at her ass?”
“Sweetie, I thought it was you! The hair, and the legs, I mean…”
Rei pulled back her own fiery arrow.
“So you were?”
Talk about fire and frying pan.

Characters: Lucy, Uther
His Majesty, Uther Pendragon, Lord of Camelot, was used to the unusual.
To be sovereign of a realm like Camelot, one had to be aware of certain things, certain… peculiarities.
And yet, for all his experience, Uther was unsure what to make of the lady before him.
She looked young, and yet, her eyes seemed to hold ages of wisdom. He wasn’t sure if he was too old, or too young for her.
“I bring gifts, your majesty.”
Whatever they were, they were warm, soft, and delicious.
“We call them ginger biccies. They’re practically magic. You shouldn’t be so mistrustful.”

Characters: Nephrite, Kunzite
Prompt: Light bulb
“Nephrite.”
No answer.
“There are better ways of reading than by the light of an energy attack hovering on your hand.”
Clearly the newest booster rocket NASA was developing was far more interesting.
“You also realize this whole thing could be avoided if you got out of bed and changed the light bulb.”
At this, Kunzite held out the shopping bag from the hardware store.
A moment later, the new light bulb hovered from out of the bag and screwed itself into the fixture.
“Stop showing off your newly recovered powers or I’ll have you do a double shift tomorrow.”
If anyone else wants a drabble, you may prompt me in the comments below. Happy Friday.
