Catharsis     When you're dying, life comes in waves.
     Finneas MacLinna is always dying. Every second of her life is just another wave, with no dreams to enjoy, no future to work toward, only a vague present that somehow bleeds into past tense along the way. To Finneas MacLinna, everything bathes in regret.

     At some point crying became a luxury. It was a pleasure, a stress release, like letting off steam from a pressure valve, not that childish impulse it once was. With every salty overflow of emotion, a milligram is chipped off of her dying heart, the rainclouds sigh
Bleeding HookAfter I got out of juvenile detention I had it tattooed across my face, right where my cheekbone ends half a centimeter below my left eye. Make it black and oozing as my blood, I told the tattoo artist, and he looked at me like I was a rabid cat off the street. He still did it, though.
It was Saturday afternoon; the streets were jammed with cars and yelling people, and if I walked too far off the sidewalk grimy smog came up into my eyes and made me choke. City lights glared in the face of the clouded sun. The last time I'd walked the streets like this the moon was just a shadow, and I was puffing gray haze with Hannah laughing next to me. W

Desert Flower     On the long yellow road a speck of dust appears against the tinted blue horizon. The boys grip their rifles, watching. Such images flicker across the eyes of many hopeful youths only to turn out to be illusions, and the boys know this. The dust shimmers idly in the distance; then grows into a sandstorm at a frightening pace, and a dry desert gust whips ground stone into their eyes and sends ripples through their shirts and faded jeans. Their hands tense against the triggers as they shout something in Arabic; but when they see who holds the flag rippling at the fore, smiles break out, and the rifles are hoisted in
HammyOpposing Viewpoint Murder Contest (Normal font=told from the viewpoint of the victim, Italics=viewpoint of the murderer)

"I'll tell you right now, this won't be pretty."

"That's good. Hammy's getting awful thrilled for this."

"Well, it was a bright, sunny day, right? A bit of rain still glimmering on the ground. I could see the reflection of the clear blue sky in the rain puddles, and it matched just gorgeously with the red and gold leaves falling everywhere."

"It must be the picture of perfection and of beauty. Then all it will need is a few crows."

heheh, did they now? (smirks mysteriously) ...well personally, I like to think that they didn't make it in time, but were glad just to make it out of that ocean alive. Ultimately, though, you decide what fate they meet.

They've gotta have a story like that somewhere! XD Man, it'd be so epic. And they find a secret cave and battle wyverns and fly a dragon back home 0 - 0 a couple decades too late for the race, but who cares? :iconlawooplz:
