Sweet Possibilities
Author's Disclaimer: I don't own Labyrinth. All rights go to their respective owners. Labyfic started up its 100 word drabbles, so I decided to try it out and included it in this series. The theme is Masquerade Ball (in honor of the Labyrinth of Jareth Masquerade), so I ran with the idea of a masquerade for both of the drabbles here. The first one is inspired by Phantom's Masquerade, sung from Jareth and Sarah's perspective in excitement for another masquerade, and the second idea came to me while listening to Lady Gaga's Bad Romance. I hope you enjoy!

Chapter 10: 100 Word Drabbles-Masquerade
Drabble 1:
Masquerade!
See the creeping shadows fade.
Masquerade!
Let's away to our rooms to begin the dance.
Masquerade!
Now our games shall all be played.
Masquerade!
We can play since the guests have all come at last.
A wig here,
Change of voice,
New mask there,
Clothes of choice.
We will try,
But each time,
We know by
The first chimeā¦.
Soulmates!
With a glance, we both know
That our mate is around,
Not really tempting fate.
Soulmates!
We avoid like the Bog
Going straight
To those arms
That elate.
And so the games await
Another masquerade!
Drabble 2:
"Jareth, what am I wearing?"
"I thought it fairly obvious, Precious. I got the costume idea from Aboveground."
"A Playboy bunny?"
Sarah emphasized her point by pinching the fluffy pink tail.
"It's the Spring Festival Masquerade Ball. We're lucky rabbits weren't claimed. Rabbits are fertile creatures," said Jareth.
"Is that why you're matching as a pink nightmare of Easter rabbits, in bright pink, very tight leather?"
Jareth gave a wolfish grin as he hopped over to Sarah.
"All the better to tempt you with. The world must be peopled."
"Who am I to stop that?" she said, patting his head.

Author's Notes: Still not sure how that second idea came from Bad Romance, but go figure. Anyways for the second drabble, I imagine after Sarah and Jareth get married, Sarah lets Jareth pick out outfits since he knows the customs and all, at least at first. Of course he abuses his power to choose, in times like the one I mentioned here. Sorry not sorry for the silliness. I hope you enjoyed!
Also, is anyone thinking about going to or has gone to the Labyrinth of Jareth Masquerade? Because I'm totally planning to, and would love to have some idea of what to expect. Thanks for reading!
