(A/N): Absolutely every character in the Legend of Korra is amazing.
Every minor character gets his fair share of fanfiction as well... Now, there are two characters that are so minor that they don't even have names, as we barely see them. They're Tahno's fangirls. More precisely, two of them, the ones that we see clutching at him in the restaurant when he came to provoke Bolin and Korra, and we see them again during a pro-bending match. They're the type of disposable characters not even important or relevant to the plot. And yet... Something about them was so appealing to me. Maybe it was the lack of knowledge about their background or... lack of knowledge about them in general. All that we know is that they're pro-bending fans and that they adore Tahno. And everything else is left to us to imagine.
So I'm offering you this multiple-chapter story written in verse.
I'd like to imagine what was happening inside of their heads, what were their dreams and what were their aims in life. And the free verse form is very handy to express emotions. However, it will have its share of actual action and story development in later chapters :)
I hope you like it :)
Chapter 1:
Their names were Bobby and Pam
They look excited to be there
Clutching at their star, bathing in glee
Their life appears simple, nice and trouble-free
Until you take a look at their tragedy :
As Tahno's fangirls, they have fun,
They give it, but get some too.
They're pretty toys, they're just mere dolls
For him, just mere distraction,
Just something nice to do
And they live like that,
Day after day,
Being toys with which he likes to play
Being trophies with which he walks around
To add even more glamour
To his crowd
They're decoration, or whatever he asks for ;
Be my princess!
Be my whore!
Be my ray of light in a sleepless night!
Be my good fun for tonight...
Only until sunlight...
And when the dawn chases the darkness away,
They would leave and won't be needed for the rest of the day
Because during the day, it's harder to hide the truth
And the pain that comes with it would be impossible to soothe.
Under the blunt sun, their face can be seen
And everybody would know just where they've been
And whispers would say, what are they hoping for?
Do they really think that one day, they may have something more?
Ridiculous!
Grotesque!
Who do they think they are?
They're nothing but some glitter to entertain the star.
And like glitter, they will vanish.
They shine only when they're here.
And once they disappear...
Nobody will miss them.
And nobody will mind.
And nobody will care.
Not even him...
They're disposable anyway.
And who would blame him?
They're the ones who made this out of themselves!
They wanted a piece of him
So they became his mistresses
(Or so they wish.
Cause what they became was so much less.)
They both came from good families
Having everything one would need.
And then they fell in love with a star.
They had a good life
Without worries
No need to strife
Or run after the glories
Who could ever guess that it would go so far?
Personal maids?
Personal whores?
Personal trophies.
Personal escort.
Dolls.
Nothing less.
Nothing more.
At times a princess,
At times a whore,
Always just a decoration
Something to play with,
Just a toy,
A doll.
A doll.
A doll.
And to his eyes, nothing more.
Did he even know who they were?
Why would he, he didn't care?
Why should he care?
What would that serve for?
Their lives besides him were of little value anyway.
They were nothing
To him
But what they made themselves to be
To him
And just to him
They were dolls without a name.
And even though their names don't matter
To me, to him, or to you,
We'll be nice to them
And we won't hide their names.
After all...
They deserve more than being called just "fans";
Their names were Bobby and Pam.
(A/N): I gave them names so their words could be heard more easily. So they would "exist" and not only as "fangirls" or "dolls"
When we're at it, it was very hard to decide whether I should name this fanfic "fangirls" or "dolls"... I went with "dolls" because it's a bit spookier and goes better with the mood of the story... Even though the story itself is still called "Fangirls" on my computer x)))
Well... Till my next chapter then :)
Feedback is much appreciated of course, it's always wonderful to know that somebody took some of their time to share their opinion of what you created with you :)
