In an attempt to get back into writing, and to take a break from trying to organize all my ideas for Understanding I had some friends come up with a list of 20 words for me to use as prompts to write on. Here is the first list given to me by Ditzychick.
Part One: For Ditzychick004
1.) Snow
Snow blanketed the ground hiding the remains of what once was and when he stared at the blankness he knew the answer to her question.
2.) Pink
His first impression of her wasn't the best (she did resemble the woman he loved to hate) but the first time he saw her room, undeniably pink he realized how different the two really were.
3.) Dress
Compared to his fine robes of white silk her common dress of cream and orange was as different as the merging of their races.
4.) Cow
She ran through the field collecting flowers as her pet grazed on the green grass.
5.) Telephone
Kagome whispered into Shippou's ear who told Sango who told Miroku who told Kaede who finally told Inuyasha ("I smell like a what!").
6.) Dirt
Her face was smudged with dirt, her kimono torn and faded but her smile was still radiant.
7.) Happy
Her laughter filled his ears, carefree and innocent and he felt surprised at how such a simple thing such as a butterfly could bring so much joy.
8.) Hyperactive
Their newest companion talked incessantly, never seemed to grow bored and annoyed him endlessly (why did Sesshoumaru-sama resurrect such a miserable human) and he felt himself grow exhausted in her presence.
9.) Ding
His argument with Kagome was interrupted by he strangest sound he'd ever heard before he saw Kagome take the cookies out of the oven.
10.) Fire
He didn't need the fire, but she did and as he watched her sleeping figure he noted how the flames gave her a golden glow - ethereal and warm.
11.) Clock
He drummed his fingers on the counter, annoyed before yelling at his companion "Wench is that ramen done yet!"
12.) Firefly
Nighttime suited him best, dark and calm (even Jaken chose to be silent) but the firefly that she held in her cupped hands proved how easily she blended in with night and day.
13.) Confusion
The day started out easily enough but soon Sesshoumaru found himself dealing with a tearful Rin (I'm dying!),the scent of blood and Jaken's squawks filling the air (stupid girl quit screaming!).
14.) Pan
Inuyasha and Kagome watched in shock as an angry Sango grabbed the closest item to her and hit Miroku on the head, before promptly dragging his comatose form away from his latest pursuit.
15.) Frizzy
He couldn't understand what was keeping her, banging on the door he yelled at her to hurry up before growing irritated and opening the door and was stopped by the sight of her hair - and then all he saw was the ground.
16.) Sparkle
She was having trouble catching fish (Jaken being even worse at fishing) before spying a sparkle in the water moving quickly he skewered the fish on a claw before handing it to her.
17.) Swirl
He watched the leaves float thru the air, the myriad of colors swirling and blending like his feelings of the past and his feelings of the present.
18.) Dance
Her silly song, along with her scent alerted him to her presence, he moved into the open watching her twirl amongst the flowers - carefree and oblivious, what he never had the chance to be.
19.) Spring
Spring was the time of rebirth, but for her there would be no spring, not anymore.
20.) Command/Concede
He always commanded and she always conceded.
