In the institute #passage, the mad Vark #rose to meet his eye "The Vark came to be free," said Reg. "The #giant Golar could never allow it. We are their pets." "But how?" "They influence how your feds #behave." "Why?" "Would you let your dog serve another master?" 7/7 #vss365 #2wordprompt #scififri

"Sit still! You're exhausting me." "Sorry, mom. It's hard not to react to such a good story." "Okay, now we become the book." Together they focused and transported inside the novel's story to frolic in the imagined hydrangea field. #thingstowriteabout #WildWalkPrompt #vss365 #FoxProse #2WordPrompt

Have you ever Asked yourself How many #roses It would take To fill a graveyard In the end I'd say It's inconsequential There's no amount Of petals & thorns That can fill the void You left behind Among the stars You'll lead & I'll follow Until I'm ready To stop chasing Flowers #vss365

I watch the mountain stream water frolics and plays around and over wood and stone I'm mesmerized by the movement and the music it plays it is a thing that acts according to its nature colored by my interpretation now I see no matter my nature I am at the mercy of interpretation #vss365

Park with a revolving gate #roses and marigolds, braiding the shed, kitchen garden, green and red, lemon and chilies in a thread. Slow music, barbecue and beer, acquaintances posing as friends, gin and tonic in a blend, fake laughter egos scattered around jealousy is the trend. ~rev #vss365

In live nests the tall, slim Varks are very #still. Like blinking statues. They barely #react to Reg. "No #frolicking?" he said to Pam, an expert on the species. "Only the eccentric ones can engage with humans," she said and Reg knew where he must go in the #finale 6/7 #vss365 #2wordprompt #vssmagic

Please don’t #frolic In the meadow Nor make out On Lover’s Lane There’s a Broken-hearted killer Who’s heart-break Made him insane Seeing happy lovers Pains him Like a stake Drove thru his brain This is just A friendly warning From the ghosts This madman’s slain… #vss365 #horror

Dylan knew the crew enjoyed a little #frolic every now and then. They were a mixed crew of mostly young people, millions of kilometres from anywhere. Of course they would. But he couldn’t. The captain couldn’t. No matter how often he made an excuse to visit engineering and talk to Marin. #vss365

Reg continued to #search. Here were the #remains of another empty nest. He met #some feds, Global Cops, already on the way out. He halted one. "My scene," he said in #defiance. "It is now." As they went, Reg swore he saw dried Vark blood encrusted on the man's coat 5/7 #vss365 #2wordprompt #vssmagic

It didn’t matter that Marin was proven right in the end, she had refused an order in #defiance of the chain of command and now Dylan had to discipline her. Something needed to change. She was a better engineer, but the Chief had seniority. Which left Dylan in a very awkward position. #vss365

worn smooth by all our words drawn close to the darkest longings & thinned amid passing bodies has Love relinquished its innocence and its delight? even so it returns stirred by desire's nearness & clothed in the colors of life as our oldest #defiance against all that disappears #vss365 #art Vika

They taunted her in the hallways. Called her a freak and shoved her against the wall. The bullying fed the growing #defiance of playing nice. She was anything but weak and with Carrie playing in theaters, when she showed up with a bucket of blood and a lighter, they knew they’d gone too far. #vss365

The lunch crowd in the District 37 Cafeteria voted on the touchscreen. “Pizza won again?” Paula moaned. “I’m lactose intolerant!” Hank shrugged. “Most folks aren’t. That’s democracy.” “But…” “Keep it down. You might get caught for dietary #defiance again.” “Ugh, no more beet pudding!” #vss365

Qelaj's ship was now #visible to Earth. A Golar high priest, he had no #truck with the human authorities. They had promised that any investigation would be a white #wash. Interacting with Earth's diplomats had been #revealing: what else would they do for resources? 4/7 #vss365 #2wordpromot #vssmagic

#vss365 #poetry 1/2 There’s a susurrus #revealing desires, through a midnight breeze, in a magical way, I can’t believe From distant memories to tomorrows horizons, in a playful peek a boo game,

They worked together on Magpie, acting so much in sync they may as well have worked together forever. Marin showed him things about Magpie that even Dylan had never known, #revealing hidden secrets that would have been very useful in his smuggling days. Revealing how alone Dylan had been. #vss365

The pod opened #revealing a round little purple creature with large eyes. The girl fell in love with it and took it home. Soon more pods appeared and children and adults fell in love with these creatures. Then the creatures grew into giants but they had already become part of the family. #vss365

Another empty nest, another dead Vark. This time holding an infant #tenderly. How could this #occur? To make things worse the Golar, the dominant species of the Vark homeworld, were sending an emissary.

Dylan didn’t like others touching Magpie. He did most repairs himself, but he allowed Marin to give his ship a look over. She moved around Magpie, touching the bird almost #tenderly, and Dylan knew she would take good care of his ship. He couldn’t take his eyes off either of them at all. #vss365

If only I’d known the gravity of time. That as I quietly took your hand my gesture would silently give you permission to leave. And that in the leaving I’d be forever left with your empty space. One that had been #tenderly shaped by a love that specifically belonged to you and only you. #vss365

"Welcome to the afterlife," the woman said #tenderly. "You are finally free of your mortal burdens." Greg examined the room. No clouds, no harps, no halos, just gray walls. "But where am I? Is this heaven or hell?" "Let me explain with a brief PowerPoint presentation..." "Oh shit." #vss365

It wasn't family Gathered round The bed, But a stranger In the August sunlight That touched me #Tenderly, As life moved Around me - Each person rushing by, Carrying backpacks Filled with worry... As time Ran out, I felt stillness Settle on me, Like whispers Of metamorphosis. #VSS365 #Writing
