ancient history

by alderations

“Would it help to talk about them?” Jonny suggests, pressing his cheek to the top of Brian’s head.“About who?” Brian sniffles.“The people,” Jonny replies, as if it’s obvious. “I assume there were people you cared about, and I assume they all died horrific and utterly preventable deaths? It helps to sing about them. Or just talk. Work it through, y’know?”

puppet lines drag you forward (along a trail a million times tread)

by Garecc, Gunpowderdtim (Garecc)

The narrative has it's stringsPuppet lines running through all that lives and all the breathes, tugging them into Stories, pulling them into Roles. The universe collects stories, collects people, collects concepts and tropes. Collects tales and people and names and lives.The Mechanisms are made to watch, made to observe these tales. Made to tell them too, to sing and write and scream these stories to the stars and all that would ever want to listen.

a godmother in white

by miralines

She doesn’t recognize the woman at the bars– a tall, thin woman wearing a white lab coat and an eye patch, dark hair chopped short, looking at her with an unnerving intensity. “I can bring you to her. If you’re married before the king can intervene, the law will protect you, and you can be with her.”“I– who are you?”The woman’s face twists into a slight ironic smile. “At the moment, your godmother.” Dr. Carmilla steps into the role of the fairy godmother for Cinders. That's it that's the fic.Written for Dr. Carmilla Appreciation Week!
