tomakeanofferMore 3 sentence fics:
Anthropomorfic, Lady Justice, women raged as old men fumbled and cried/we're sorry, we thought you didn't care:
She takes many forms, puts on many faces, but for now, she faces you as a wolf.
You shudder, feel your heart race, your palms sweat and you wonder if this creature, this big, hungry-looking beast, is going to be the last thing you see.
Then she lunges, not at you, but at the man who's been keeping you, the man who made you his, the one who said you belonged to him, and you realize who she's really there for.
Greek Mythology, Hades/Persephone, and everything i ever did/was just another way to scream your name
She will not kneel before him, will not bow. She holds her head up high and tells him, if anyone's going to bow, it's going to be him.
At that moment, Hades knows he's going to give her everything that's within his power to give.
Modern mythology, sirens and smartphones:
Old myths never die, they just adapt. They march ever onward, changing shape but no, they do not die.
The Sirens slipped into the modern world unnoticed, singing sweet songs into cell phones and calling forth the men, the women and everyone else who they wanted with the push of a button.
So be careful, sweet one, be careful when you pick up the phone for you never know who might be on the other end.
Original verses, forgotten things:
She is the Lady Of Those Lost, the Queen of the things you forget about, the souls lost in the memory of the world. She loves them all, her vanished subjects. She knows each of their names, remembers their voices, and in this way she gives them new life.
Original verses, home is where the heart is:
In order to fit everyone, they have to steal a bigger car. Timothy wonders for half a minute if they should feel bad if the fact that they're stealing something from someone else means he should try and offer something back to them.
Jack reminds him that, to the person they're taking it from, it's just a car, but to the five of them it's going to be a home.
Original verses, Staring into the abyss:
Poppy blinks, staring into the darkness, feeling it stare back. She knows she should be afraid, should run or cry, or get help. The thing is, she's stopped being afraid of what lays int he abyss and, rather than run, she reaches a hand out to say hello.
Original verses, strange and distant music:
Dorothy is lured by the music, strange and haunting, pretty and easy to dance to. Her father doesn't notice until it's too late but he races after her all the same.
Dorian and Timothy stand by the car, confused and uncertain, neither of them sure what's going on or charmed by the pretty noises coming from the darkened woods.
Original verses, vagabonds:
Timothy never saw his life going this way, roving around with Jack and his family. There was so much darkness when he saw his future, hunger, exhaustion, and wanting, but things turned out so, so differently.
They sing loudly in the car, and Jack drives faster than he should and he realizes that maybe it's not home he thought he would have but it's so, so much better.
