The Vagaries of Fortune
Fandom: The Hunger Games Trilogy
Characters: Primrose Everdeen
Word Count: 100 words
Summary: The day after.


Prim cries herself to sleep that first night, only to wake with the dawn. In the gray light of morning, she steals from Mother's side, tucks the blankets back in around her, and slips outside.

She drifts through the Seam, from building to building, a ghost, until she reaches the fence. Standing in it's shadow, she stares out past the border and into the trees, into the dark stillness that is the forest. That stillness has always frightened her.

She wishes for her sister's bravery.

Prim never considers that it was terror that had forced Katniss to speech, not courage.

Happy birthday, sistabro! *hugs much* Have a fabulous day!

I keep thinking about posting... then I either get too busy or forget because I've gotten too busy. My life is crazy... though not as bad as it was before and leading up to the holidays.

Thanks deirdre_c, drvsilla, and locknkey for the blue dragons and glass hearts. They're very pretty. :)

I'm still teaching at the barn I ride at on the weekends. I've gotten some regular students, so I'm making a little extra money, as well as taking on the groupon people as they come in. Those I get paid for in free riding time. :) I've been having fun riding both an off-track thoroughbred (he's 9 years old and a handful), as well as helping work on the jumping skills of a belgian draft horse (she's the one in my icon).

I've picked up a few new TV shows lately; I'm loving Smash and Once Upon a Time, even in OUaT isn't always written the best, it still seems to appeal. I might even be writing a little bit for that one! Slowly, as I'm still really busy.

Anyway, I may not post a whole lot, but I'm still reading my flist regularly and trying to keep up with everyone. :)

Happy (slightly belated) birthday to gryphonrhi! Hope you had a fabulous day, hon! :)

Happy birthday, skewedview! Have a wonderful day!

Happy birthday, halfshellvenus! Hope you have a fabulous day! :) *hugs*

Happy slightly belated birthday to grayscaled and harmonyfb! Hope you both had a wonderful day!

I just wasted an entire hour of my life in a useless meeting here at work. The important information took approximately 60 seconds. The rest of the meeting was 2 people misunderstanding each other and arguing back and forth over 2 entirely separate points at the same time. *headdesk*

So... who's going to Wincon this year?

Also, yes, I'm alive. This summer has been crazy. Crazy heat, ants that refuse to leave my kitchen and a child with chickenpox (which have finally gone away).

I need a nap.

The temperatures are supposed to be ridiculous today. 101 degrees with a heat index making it feel like 105-110. Ugh. I think I'm going to hide indoors except for when I have to run for the bus to get home.

The Devil with his Finger on the Scale
Fandom: Fringe
Characters: September (the Observer)
Word Count: 104 words
Notes: End of season 3
Summary: Ruminations on morality.



He stands beneath the Statue; feels the newly made world settling around him and thinks.

Peter was always meant to cease to exist when he fulfilled his purpose, and fulfilled it had been, beyond what any of them had believed Peter capable of. Even now he can feel the totality of both worlds stabilizing beneath him.

It was to be the humans' reward that they could not remember what had been, December had assured him; that they could not remember Peter himself, whose fate had never been to survive in any universe.

September feels certain this is how things are meant to be.

Right?

THE YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL MEME

My thread is here.

So very, very tired.

Last week was the craziness of exams here at work. Lots of stressed out students, which leads to no-shows at the library for work and insane amounts of returned books.

I then spent the weekend like so:

Saturday
10am-3pm - Furniture shopping all up and down what we jokingly call Furniture Alley. It's a 3 or 4 mile stretch of about 2 dozen furniture stores.

Why? My MIL offered to buy us a new set of living room furniture. Considering ours is old and the cats have shredded the couch half to death, this is awesome.

3-9pm - Out at the barn riding and feeding all the critters, as the barn owner was out of town for the weekend. This includes the 3pm feeding for the Thoroughbreds, who need tons of food, and the 8pm feeding for everyone, plus some stall cleaning and I did manage a ride in there.

9:30-11:30pm - Online RPG gaming with friends. Lots of fun, though by that point I was a little too tired to concentrate, so it's good the GM was focusing on someone else's character for most of that.


Sunday

AM - Mother's day breakfast with my mom, dad and grandmother, plus the hubby and Roo. Lots of coffee involved here. :D

PM - More furniture shopping. We finally found a couch. This one, but in slate gray where it's red in the picture. We also decided on a black, microfiber storage ottoman from a different store, instead of the one in the picture, and we found neat Japanese paper lantern style lamps and gray/black accented tile end tables that are narrow and rectangular, to bracket the couch. It'll look awesome. It's going to take up to 12 weeks to get the couch, though, since it's a special order with the color change.


Today

I spent all morning with little help at the circulation desk, standing and pulling expired holds (books patrons requested but never picked up), and checking in what feels like 80,000 books that the graduating seniors have been returning.

My poor feet are killing me now. *grumbles*


In fandom news, though, I finally watched the finale of Fringe. Fringe!!! I love this show. I might also have 2 more drabble ideas now. :D Yay fic!! \o/

A Shadow Cast by That We Do Not See
Fandom: Fringe
Characters: Oliva Dunham
Word Count: 127 words
Notes: Through 3.20.
Summary: It takes her weeks to be able to sleep through the night again.


It takes her weeks to be able to sleep through the night again.

In the dark, the familiar shadows cast by her furniture turn sinister and she has to force herself to close her eyes. She buys blackout curtains and throws away all her nightlights in an attempt to drown the shadows, but her own breath sounds wrong in the darkness of her room and she still cannot sleep.

Days on the job feel unfamiliar, too. She finds herself reaching for the communicator no longer in her ear or for the phone to call a Charlie who never belonged to her.

It isn't until she crawls back into bed with Peter on the morning Walter walks naked through the house that she realizes the nightmares have stopped.
