A/N: Originally posted on my dA. Stay tuned for A/N at the end. I have been working on a draft of the next installment of Sarah's Journal, Ch 11. It is rough, incomplete, and almost certainly has some GAPING plot holes. However, to encourage myself to keep writing at it, here I post three short excerpts.
Do I REALLY need the disclaimer? *sigh* - DISCLAIMER: If it's anything remotely belonging to or directly inspired by the movie "Labyrinth," it's (c) Henson, Lucas, Froud, Bowie, Connelly, etc, and NOT MINE. Any OCs are mine. Interpretation of centuries of lore, legends, mysteries, and partly remembered stories belongs to the world.
NOTE: Excerpts are out of context, and in the order that I chose them for sharing, not necessarily any other order.
- Meanwhile, Underground -
The invitation sent shock-waves of building intensity. The King's very own Chosen Lady had issued an invitation to her Chosen Lad and to his own uncle! Not just any invitation, but to a family gathering within the bounds of her family's home.
Jareth's Presence, influence, role, and rule allowed his subjects to keep their true natures but brought into some kind of order, but that level of freedom meant a constant level of chaotic-seeming activity. Some only saw the mess. The rest marveled at the smooth running of it all below the surface.
So, naturally, Hoggle was worried. Realizing that this was more than his dwarven brother-in-arm's standard pessimism, Sir Didymus lost a degree of his typical certainty, but none of his chivalry. Oddly enough, Ludo seemed more optimistic.
A/N: Now - you know what to do. Re-read "Sarah's Journal", ask questions, speculate wildly, help me find typos, provide encouragement, humor, distraction (and installments of your own stories). I ask for so little.
