So, hey I'm ISON, or you know Ison, not to be all shouty at you, because I'm not a shouty Comet. Not like some. I also go by C/2012 S1, but I like totally prefer Ison.

Much Ado About Nothing - Shakespeare
Brittle
by fresne
Brittle. That was the word she was looking for, brittle. Perhaps it was because she was hollowed out. She'd cared so much and for so long that she simply could not stand to do it another moment longer. Full of acid and longing to spill.

Parades Beginning Middle
by fresne
This is the story of how the Bifrost, also known as the Rainbow Bridge, and the biannual Bifrost Trans Pride parade came to be. Although, admittedly, it may not seem like it at first. What with all the extraneous details and the random digressions about irrelevancies. Well, okay, it's actually only a little bit about the Rainbow Bridge or the biannual Bifrost Trans Pride parade. But seriously, it does get there eventually. Really. Eventually.

Until We Meet Again
by fresne
It shouldn't have worked. It wasn't proper. Uranus knew that a planet should form relationships with moons and not other planets, and ze had moons. Dull proper conversations that provided no enlightenment. They sparked no enrichment in hirs existence. But when Uranus aligned with Neptune, Neptune would form these bright spots in hirs upper atmosphere. Ze would say, "Oh, hey, Uranus. You look. Wonderful. Oh, I've missed you so." Uranus would spin quietly, trembling with their relative proximity across the vastness of space.

Greek and Roman Mythology
Anticipation
by fresne
Anticipation is a lovely word. Say it. Anticipation. In the right mouth, the word hangs on the lips. Rolls around the tongue. Caresses the lips that says the word. Suspension, expectation, desire. Orpheus had anticipation for his wedding and for his bride Euridice. Now there is a word. Euridice. She of the black ringlet hair and flashing eyes. In Orpheus' mouth, her name was a paean, an ode, an epiphany of joy. But then Orpheus was a singer, a poet, a tenor with a very broad range.

Dreams she shares with four people scattered across Europe: a psychic lost in the present, an undead Crusader, an Aztec priestess and a teenage vampire.
