The Poetry Fishbowl is now CLOSED.  Thank you for your enthusiasm.

Well, there are all sorts of your worlds and characters which lend themselves to that prompt. The first to leap out at me when I saw it the other day were Damask and Danso and his family from Polychrome heroics, since healing and growth is pretty much where they are "at the moment" last I read. They could use some among themselves, and might well help provide it to someone else as well.

Healing and growth also seems to be Cat's general goal, so perhaps more of his adventures? Or maybe the little dragon from Conflagration could manage to make some friends and help one or more of the various peoples rebuild from the damage of his larger cousins. They certainly could use some healing there.

Both Monster House and Frankenstein's Family (which I've started reading most recently) could easily lend themselves to something on this line, but I don't have any particular ideas within them.

The prompt also speaks pretty directly to what "Love is for Children" is all about, but I suspect as a fanfic series that might not apply to this forum.

At any rate, those are what I've been thinking about. Hopefully one or more of them spark a little something (or a larger something as the case may be) for you!

Your Frankenstein prompt combined with a Dreamwidth one to inspire the free-verse poem "The Soothing Sound." Excited by the new use of his legs, Adam promptly overdoes it and winds up sore and cranky. Csilla helps unwind the tight muscles.
