THE FICLETS
It’s prompting time. Give me a character, pairing, fandom, or storyworld and a favorite poem or quote. Ficlets will be linked here after completion.
The World Turns ‘Round
Fandom: X-Men Movieverse
Prompt: arliddian, Revolving Days by David Malouf. Also whipsy, dancing.
He pretends he hasn’t been exiled from his wife for the last ten years. She pretends her husband hasn’t been in a coma for the last seven. They pretend they aren’t two of the loneliest people in the world.
The Cloths of Heaven
Storyworld: Vardin
Prompt: in_the_blue, Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven by Yeats
He hesitated at that, the way she said it so simply, like it meant everything and nothing to her all at once. “Color blind?” he asked, but even as he said it, he realized he already knew the answer.
The Veil Between You and Me
Fandom: Awake
Prompt: lithiumlaughter, the meaning of apocalypse
“You’re crazy.” Bird stepped away abruptly, didn’t look back. How many times had they come to this point before? Talk to me, don’t act like everything’s the same, you’re my partner.
Yeah, well, reality’s sometimes hard to take.

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

"very few people know that the original Greek translation of 'apocalypse' means 'lifting of the veil' or 'revelation'...a disclosure of something hidden."
"Awake".
Take your pick of character(s).
