Been wanting to do ficlets inspired by my playlist for awhile now so I decided why not start now. The first song on the list happens to be "Run Into Flowers" by m83. Wanting to try something a bit different, I went with Male Robin x Zelda for this particular piece.
As for the title, it's pretty much me describing my own iPod classic on its shuffle setting.
Total Words: 427
And of course, warning for unintentional OOC.

He was one who never put much heed into his own thoughts let alone meandered off into the vast fantasies of his own mind. Instead, he preferred to keep things realistic let alone get his head out of the clouds. Robin was never the type for daydreaming especially since it only led to wasting precious time which could be fixated on another important task.
Today however, completely took the man by surprised and let him devour his own words.
It wasn't until her that he finally learned to loosen up a bit. Her porcelain skin glimmered from the sun's basking rays, complimenting her rosy cheeks as her umber hair danced alongside the wind. Zelda's right hand reached out for the high deliverer as if ushering him to conform.
The snow haired tactician wasn't too sure where exactly the Hylian princess was going with this or what she schemed howbeit he decided to test fate and leap over it.
The grassy meadow pranced along in waves with each gust of wind, only to hastily spring up as fresh as a bunch of flowers right after. They traversed halfway through the bushy plains as Zelda halted in her tracks as she stared in awe.
"Robin, look," she simply exclaimed to him.
Wondering what managed to captivate her excitement, the tactician tiptoed for just a slight moment as his eyes widened. Not from afar, he saw a vast lush flower field in full view as the gust skipped along its tips. It was immersed with deep hues of salmon and violet atop vibrant green stems which beckoned for the pair to reach right in and pick them.
Before he could grasp back into reality's grip, Zelda grabbed both of his hands and pulled Robin through the field of flowers as they skipped along. The princess giggled throughout her journey while Robin was quite astonished at first yet managed to process her excitement as a small smile managed to escape his lips. As she continued tugging the tactician around, the two eventually fell into the flower field before cracking up once more. Afterwards, they laid against one another and gazed at the wisps of white cloud above them.
After a few minutes of silence, the tome wielder tried to grab Zelda's attention yet in spite of it all, failed. It appeared that she floated off into her own ideations which somehow perked the Plegian's sudden interests. Robin concluded, perhaps drifting off into fantasy wasn't so bad after all.
As long as she was around, things will certainly change for the better.
Done with the first ficlet. I'm just doing these because I feel that it's not only leisurely yet gives me a excuse to write something based off of songs on my mp3 player. Just note that I listen to literally anything so expect anything from cheesy pop music to indie.
I tried to make this somewhat vague since the song itself has that really mysterious feel to it.
Anyways, that's it. Feel free to suggest pairings (I accept M/F, M/M and F/F) as well, either Smasher x Smasher or Smasher x Non-Smasher even. For Non-Smasher, try to keep them related to the Nintendo franchises please (sorry Sony).
Feel free to specify if you want it AU or not as well or even give a theme too!
Until next time,
-Ash
