Title: all the seeds in our garden fight
Fandom: LOST
Characters: Mother/Jack
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 108
Summary: Even in death he is like her. (prompt - path, written for lost_in_108)


The island needs its constants, its Adams and Eves. Jack never strays far from her expectations, tripping down down the rabbit trail of inevitability.

Even in death he is like her, stubborn and alone. The jungle breathes around them, sighs a song to drown out the others, unimportant (they'll find their way long before she and Jack).

His body is slick with rain and sweat, the worries of a made-up world she could never see. "Never thought I'd see past die alone," he confesses, nervous laugh, hands tight through soggy curls.

"The island cares for its own, Jack."

(even now she feels its eye on her, curious, jealous)
