Drabbling (Part 1) -- VG Drabble: Of Falling Stars
So...I'm new to the art of drabbles. And I am rather...unsure of my attempts. This one is the "better one" in my opinion, but that's 'cos it's really a character sketch. ^_~
Title: Of Falling Stars
Author: Curt Kenobi
Summary: Curt Wild, short and simple.
Fandom: Velvet Goldmine
Rating: PG (‘cos I don’t do G-ratings)
Genre: Drabble, angst. Character sketch
Disclaimer: Ah, to own Curt Wild. I don’t think anyone can except maybe Arthur, let alone little ol’ me.
-----t-h-e---b-o-y-s---a-r-e---n-o-t---i-m-p-r-e-s-s-e-d-----
Curt’s a flawed creature. He’s aware of this fact, as are those around him. Some have embraced the fact as endearing, some have used him - taken advantage of him… A few have done both. But Curt’s ever the same. A lost boy, with no innocence, but a willing heart. Just as he’d been as a child.
That willing heart’s his biggest flaw - but he’s finally realised that. Now…it’s cold. But his want - need - to love…stays. A lost boy, with an indelibly hurting heart. With no relief, for he pushes it away to stay safe, all the while badly needing it.
(The lyric in the page break is from: "Hot One" by Shudder to Think.)
