Teaser: a love story told in blips

Notes: none, especially. But w00t we're almost done these and I go on to drabbles. Of course, when I say drabbles I mean drabbles. 100 words maximum… usually.


o031. Poison
he feels like his entire life is poisoned and he feels guilty that she swallows it without complaint

o032. Pretty
"she's pretty, innit she?" the drunk slurs as he eyes Ilyana's short skirt, but he can't get the lewd suggestion out as he feels the cold metal of Zihark's sword against his throat

o033. Rain
in the rain her lavender hair darkens to a violet hue, but he's pleased to learn it still smells like cherries

o034. Regret
his life is full of regret and fear, but it's nothing compared to the regret that stems through him when he sees the Warrior fall on top of her and he can't get to them in time to stop it

o035. Roses
when he first sees the female mage he thinks of delicate flows, lilies and daisies, but when the electricity sparks from her fingertips he remembers thorns and thinks of roses

o036. Secret
"I gave you an apple, now tell me a secret," Zihark challenges, pulling her lips away from the fruit, but his confidence is quickly lost when Ilyana leans in and says she loves him

o037. Snakes
"not all snakes slither," she says softly and moves quickly away, leaving him to wonder who the hell hurt her

o038. Snow
"if I never see this shit again it'll be too soon," Zihark says as he kicks the offending white and he can only manage a growl when Ilyana throws the snowball into his face

o039. Solid
in a world where everything is gossamer and fleeting, Ilyana finds something wonderful in the way her head bunches against his chest

o040. Spring
the chill of winter never leaves Daein, but Zihark is certainly seeing bright, springy colors as Ilyana's hands slide down, down, down


reviews

TFRiD Queen: yeah, I'm definitely making 'Light' a drabble and probably one of my longer drabbles too… that is just so fun!

Story Weaver1: I prefer the term 'innuendo' and I don't really read smut. Well… I read tasteful smut. Like Nora Roberts or Tara Janzen. Very rarely fanfiction smut because none of it is usually good

Riyu21: if you ask me (and, of course, no one does) Ilyana/Zihark are pretty close cannon. I mean he's obsessed with laguz, and yet he chooses to go with the merchant to Daein… suspicious
