(no subject)
You guys I have an irritating case of writer's block and so I am doing iambickilometer's version of the six-word drabble meme. There's two original fiction things, one RPF, one fanfiction straight, and one fanfic one that references an AU.
In the city, hardly anyone cares.
Everything goes up in slow smoke
and they are alone in alleys
curled together, newborn-bloody, unafraid, smiling
Fingers intertwined as cardboard towns burn.
He held Spring in his hands
a lesser man might have tried
to bottle and sell that beauty
but Winter is a greedy thing
and selfish men have good morals.
Way back in the Garden times
things were far less complex because
when one of them got angry
the other just reincarnated; but now
Crowley is forever buying fresh flowers.
You put me in checkmate again.
Petulant, I say it doesn't matter
as if I do not care
that I am slowly losing ground.
"Let me tell you a story,"
she says it with that smile
that looks like the world beginning
and aren't you scared she'll lie
again? Because you hate it when
she makes the truth look prettier
than it should be. But she's
too charming and too disarmingly different
and the stories are so pretty
(just like her you don't think)
so you sit down and listen.
Oh I guess you can request them too.
