Drabble Request Post
Jan. 2nd, 2006 01:35 pmAnd since I figured more people might want to make requests... ;)
Leave me the name or one or two characters (it doesn't have to be only game characters, though if I don't know the one requested well enough I'll ask for an alternative), along with a writing promt such as those listed in the previous drabbles post and I'll write you something. It may go from a one liner to a drabble ~ I'll just go with whatever inspirations strikes me with. :)
You can ask for more than one drabble per request and ask for more after your requests are fulfilled, too.
Cheers and happy new year, everyone!

Rachel paused in her bid for baby freedom, entranced by the sight before her. Snow drifted and floated about, each snowflake floating anew after its first fall to the ground as Kylun whirled in a sometimes slow, sometimes lightning fast pattern, dancing with winter. The blades flickered through the sunlight and the snow lived once more as it joined in the weave of life, a powdering of light and life wrapping itself about a core of heat and humanity.
When Moira finally caught up, Rachel had joined the dance in her own way, kicking up small tufts of snow in the air for Kylun's blades to pick up and add to the swirling mass around him, both of them laughing with the freedom of innocents.

Dani and Rahne stood in the doorway to the kitchen, one eyeing the sparkling clean counters and ovens warily while the other leaned forward, scenting the air with casual carefulness.
Lorna was gone but the kitchen was still, somehow, inescapably her domain, merely lent out to the rest of the mansion in her absence. Both girls had to learn its current condition by heart before stepping in, they knew, so that when Lorna returned, the kitchen would be awaiting her, exactly in the condition she'd left it.

When he was young, Jamie had firmly believed that there was someone out there, someone magical and special who placed new shoes just inside his bedroom by the door, every time he outgrew the old ones. He'd tried to catch this mysterious person for many years, until finally, one day, the shoes had stopped showing up even though he hadn't finished growing yet.
Since then, every time Jamie wears out a pair of shoes (which happens faster than you'd think, from the accumulated wear of many a dupe), he sends them back home. His mother knows what to do with them, even though they've never spoken on the matter, and every now and then a pair of shoes replaced the worn one set there beforehand, forever marking the grave of Jamie's grandfather.
See grandpa? I figured out. And I still miss you, is the unspoken and unwritten message.

It was the third TV to suffer the same fate, smoke curling out from its sides in a forlorn question mark. Sighing, Jay shook his head and gently retrieved the game pad from Jean's grasp, lips twitching at the half-embarassed, half-defiant look she sent his way.
"Miss Grey... Ah just don't think you ought to be playing them games no more. Not until ya'll stop tryin' to move them blocks about with that telekinesis instead of the game pad 'n all."
