where the light bends at the cracks

Yeah, I posted that Never-Will-I-Ever meme, and then without prompting I went and did the main thing that I swore Never-Would-I-Ever write for Pros fandom. I'm going to blame squeeful for it, even though it's not really her fault. How someone can have the cracked-out simulcast we did, and then write this...I don't even know.

Because mine is a melancholy that is contagious. And you beat me to it, damn you! ;-P All this time and I haven't done my once-a-fandom deaths.

Yep, I planted the seed through AIM telepathy.

And Stephen King formatting or not (it's not his alone) I like it.

[tears_of_nienna]

N'awww, thanks. I kind of fell in love with the sort of lyrical way he writes parts of the Dark Tower books, and the spacing

(like this)

is definitely pilfered from the books.

Eh, I've seen poets do if before him, so do the Wikipedia bibliography and pretend that you are citing the original!

This is gorgeous! I love it very much! Beautiful and melancholy but the kind with bright shining optimism under it all, because our lads are together! *g*

Although I cried a bit because I was spoiled without a choice about it...

[tears_of_nienna]

Thank you so much. It didn't fit into the 100 words, but you know they never even considered leaving one of them to stay with the criminals. They had to do it together.

(Er, oh yeah, the warning. *wince* Every other fandom I've been in has preferred the warnings above the fold and outside the cut, and I sort of forgot that Pros tends to be a bit different. I'll just stick it under its own cut at the end, shall I? *g*)

Oh, it's not my comm, so I can't ask you to do that unfortunately! We do it over at discoveredinalj and ci5hq but they don't do it here at Safehouse... though I wish they would... Thanks for offering, though! *g*

[tears_of_nienna]

Psst: This isn't actually the Safehouse, 'tis my LJ. ;)

But I do like to stick with the conventions of the fandom I'm writing for, so I'm glad you mentioned it. Especially before I went and posted it to a comm.

Lovely lyricism, drabbles can go wrong in a variety of ways, but when they work, they are wonderful. Like this one.

[tears_of_nienna]

Eee, thank you! I love writing drabbles, even when they don't work, but I'm so glad this one did. :D

[darth_angelus]

That's a nice cheerful start to the day :p

But well written, so that's good and you are forgiven :)
