365 Challenge: Time, Love, and Scars

This entry is part 17 of 52 in the series 365 Challenge

365 pieces of poetry and fiction to prompts. Poetry, songs, colors, favorite lines, etc. I want to write original work, but knowing me, the occasional bit of fandomness will sneak in. This is more exciting to me than I can say for some reason, and I’m hoping you will all help me as I reach out to create an average of one piece a day.

Two drabbles, a double-drabble, and a poem. Thanks for the prompts, y'all! Keep 'em coming.

Scarred

Canon: Alliance
Characters: Kade Broussard and Hayley Lamar
Pairings: Hayley/Kade
Prompt: not in love
Rating: T
Notes:

So I hadn’t meant for this to be so depressing and horrible, but um… There it is in black and white—the reason Hayley is the way she is.

She's not in love. Really.

Hayley isn’t the kind of woman to be in denial, but she’s never liked a problem she doesn’t know how to untangle.

Warning: Mentions abuse.

Poetry is Fire

Canon: Alliance
Characters: Shelley Huntington and Gideon Thompson
Pairings: Gideon/Shelley
Prompt: books
Rating:
Notes:

A double-drabble.

Arsonists aren't supposed to be into literature.

Shelley wants a book; so does the local troublemaker.

Ever in Love

Canon: Mirror
Characters: Ever and Jaydn
Pairings:
Prompt: what about love
Rating:
Notes:

I wanted a plethora of quick drabbles. This is one of the few pieces that didn’t look liked I crammed a short into a flash. It’s also the first finished prose snippet of the world. Yay.

Why did she have to look like she belonged there?

Ever’s friend comes down to his shop, perches on his desk, examines the space station parts he sells. He just wishes she came for him.
