Prompts

[ceitfianna]

I have plans for my internship, lots of good ones. Next week will start with meetings and I will accomplish stuff. Also the weather has cleared here which makes me so happy. Now its pretty, but not insanely hot. My birthday is next week and life is feeling good. I've made my sleep schedule better so I don't walk up and groan though my ankle has been bothering me, so my normal walk is rather painful.

Lately I've been feeling creative but without direction. I have all these little ideas floating around, but they need anchors so as inspired by ashen_key, have some lyric prompts.

Pick a prompt, give me a character, pairing, situation (all my RP!verses are open game. Or anything you else you think I might be able to write) and I'll do my best to write at least one prompt per person.

All lyrics are from the Dixie Chicks who make me want to sing along.

1-If the exception proves the rule I guess that's true
2-The landslide will bring you down
3-If you ever want to find me I can still be found
4-When the boy gets that look in his eye
5-It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
6-It's too late to make it right
7-A place in the clouds, a foundation of stone
8-I wanna grow something wild and unruly
9-So why is fighting all that we're good at anymore
10-Of love and gravity it pulls you so strong
11-I caught wind and hit the road runnin'
12-Couldn't keep me on my knees
13-But our children are watching us
14-Somebody tell my head to try to tell my heart
15-Whoa this bird can't sing when you've tied its wings

I wanna grow something wild and unruly

[ceitfianna]

The bricks were crumbling like pastry as the vines wound up to pull them down and Kore laughed and leaned on her mother,

"Maybe some hibiscus for color?"

Her mother joined in the laughter as red flowers bloomed atop the barely standing factory, "Let it grow."

Kore hugged her mother with laughter full of wild, true life, tomorrow someone will wonder what happened to that old weapons factory, for now a mother and daughter are letting life be free.

Ooooh, I do love it when they are happy and making things grow. I love this, Fi.

If you ever want to find me I can still be found

Tiwa had wondered and worried when she hadn't seen Arthur for a few months. Logically, she knew that it was simply Milliways being odd, but he was part of a big, dangerous story and a hard and tragic destiny was ahead of him.

So she found a copy of Once and Future King, her favorite version and read it, but that didn't help. She wasn't a seer or anything like that yet still she paced and hid in the rafters.

Then the door opened and he entered, worn and tired, and a king, a king of a world that was and wasn't for him but still a king.

There was blood mixed in with the stripes of his suit and she could feel the iron of a gun and even a knife on him.

His eyes were hurting and wild when she approached him, as skittish as any bird daring to near a great dog. He found a smile for her somewhere as she led him to a seat, feeling for injuries and winces at the iron of his gun, "I told you that I'd come back."

"Course you did and you're good at keeping your word." Something was broken in his eyes when she said that, and Tiwa opened her mouth and birdsong escaped before she found words, "Just keep finding your way back."

Never to her, no, but always back, the great tales keep finding ways to live, ever and ever unfolding somewhere.

...Hi this is amazingly, wonderfully good and I don't have the words yet. I love, love, LOVE the way you've twisted in the mythos and the magic along with the There was blood mixed in with the stripes of his suit and Tiwa finding birdsong first, words second.

And I can SEE this, and them.

I'm so glad you like it. This one just sort of wrote itself, so at the moment I have no idea what part of the story its from just that it is.

My utter lack of sleep last night isn't aiding with coherency but its good for my fic writing.

Ahahah, yeeeeeeeeeeeeeah - no lie, most of my ginormous Trudy/Carl/Jack thing is being written between 10pm and 12am, because then I'm loopy enough to just WRITE.

Ah, muses, such odd things. But, seriously, I just...I LOVE this, Fi. I really, really, really do.
