Author's Notes: So, I do this thing when I have writer's block and sometimes it helps and sometimes it makes me want to flip a table in frustration. You see, I ask people to give me super vague prompts and then I stick them in a document I keep on my desktop, number them, roll a couple die and write a 100 word story using the prompt. These little ficlets would be the aftermath of such adventures and I'll be posting them here as I finish editing them. Some of them are scary, some are silly and some are serious but they were all written by an incredibly devoted author!

I don't own xxxHOLiC, or its characters.


His feet slide against the rough floor, off balance and blind with panic-

(The difference between a ghost, spirit and demon means very little in this kind of situation…)

And he's pulling desperately at the rolling black mass, refusing to flinch away from the flashes of teeth and claws hidden in the darkness-

(He's never seen a spirit dare to touch Doumeki, but the way this one wrapped around him…)

And there's blood coating his hands when he finally drags Doumeki away-

(Is it his or mine?)

He doesn't take a breath until he sees the flash of Doumeki's arrow.


So, can I prompt you? Yes, if you'd like to! Just remember what I said about the dice rolling - that means I write prompts randomly and may not get to yours right away. If you're still interested, you can either leave your prompt in a review or PM me. The only rule I have is that the prompt must be three words or less.

Yes: Flames burn bright.

No: Doumeki wearing a dress while riding a unicorn!
