ix. meteor shower

Jun 07, 2009 22:16

My mother used to tell me a story about meteor showers. It went something like, "There once was a boy with a very kind heart, but he was lonely. So at night he would befriend the stars outside his window, talking to them, sharing his stories of the day. When he had to go to bed, there would be countless friends watching over him. But once the sun ( Read more... )

But it seemed like such a lovely story.

...I don't remember the rest.

The ending is kinda sad anyway.

wait4mesenpai June 8 2009, 03:38:35 UTC

The ending doesn't make the story good or bad, though. If you ever do remember it, I'd love to hear the rest.

A sad story wouldn't help enforce a positive attitude around this place, would it?

Go ahead, finish it.

bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 03:33:42 UTC

I'm not that great at telling stories.

2ndunitcaptain June 8 2009, 03:34:17 UTC

You give up too easy.

bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 03:42:10 UTC

It's not that--! My memory on the rest of the story is a little hazy.

Fire Nation legend?

voice bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 03:36:18 UTC

Might have been. Or just one of those bedtimes stories.

Mothers know a lot about those, don't they?

voice ismakingwaves June 8 2009, 03:42:42 UTC

Well, I haven't heard of this one. Why don't you finish it? It sounds nice.

... Yeah, they do.

I used to know it by heart, but after my mother disappeared, the story started to fade. [sighs] I don't want to ruin it by making things up.

...That's a lovely story.

bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 04:02:14 UTC

You really think so? It gets better, but I'm having trouble remembering the rest.

flower_of_hell June 8 2009, 04:08:58 UTC

Yeah! If you ever remember the rest, you should tell Rena! I would love to hear the ending!

bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 04:12:46 UTC

Even if the ending is a little sad?
I'm Zuko by the way. Hello Rena.

I hope you remember the rest of the story, sometime.

bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 04:13:44 UTC

I hope so too. I can't believe I forgot--it was such an important story...

eidolon_soul June 8 2009, 05:46:05 UTC

Perhaps another night of this -if we're so lucky- will trigger the rest. Even without a happy end, I'm sure it's worth hearing.

bodybreakdown June 8 2009, 05:58:05 UTC

I've never known meteor showers to last more than a night, but I won't complain. I'll be sure to write a neater version of the story, once I can remember it.
