{{Meme}} Celebratory Writing Meme!

[free_for_a_phee]

So, today brought some wonderful news! I've been offered a very nice job, with not too many hours but a good chance of advancement! We'll have to see if it sticks, but until I find otherwise, I'm celebrating! And, since having new responsibility always equals role-playing and writing inspiration, a meme with a chance of both.

Pick one or two

\o/ Congratulations!! That's wonderful news, and I'm glad it's helped with inspiration!

May I have an Upwords drabble about Cornered?

Thank you~! A lucky bonus is I foresee no late night working, either! So my roleplay evenings remain intact!

But, as to the request-

Upwords, Cornered
He didn't understand when he was little.

He only knew the facts, the insanity of pharaohs, battles, would-be heroism. It was only later that the rest sunk in. Only then did he dismiss a ghost's epic warnings in favor of his double's simpler one.

It will be hard, but you'll have the best friends you could ask for right there with you, so enjoy it while you can.

That was his motivation. It was.

But when his fingers hesitated to place the last piece? Was that some magic, or the image of turning an hourglass, that kept his hand still?
