A Short History of Nearly Nothing
Runaways
Drabble



She didn't have long. Which blows.

There were things to do; fighting the good fight, Chase, trying not to die.

Okay, in the grand scheme of things making time with her sorta boyfriend (they never talked about what they were, exactly) shouldn't be making any top three lists.

She completely blew the last one. She died twice, how fucked up is that?

For an atheist, she's sure doing a lot of posthumous musing. For an atheist, she's doing a lot of posthumous anything.

If only she had had a little more time, Gertrude might have done something with her life.

She never even got a tattoo.

I've done something terrible....I've written OT3 Runaways smut, between Victor, a toaster and a coffee maker, at least, this is as smutty as I ever get.

The 4 things that never happened to Klara Prast in 2008, and one that might
written for the fifth fest at smallfandomfest
Prompt was Klara, new world
Author's note: This is my first and so far only five things that is not Stargate related. I love expanding my horizons! ALSO, this references events in Young Avengers/Runaways Secret Invasion. If you haven't read that mini series (or even heard of it), basically an alien race called the Skrull invades. Klara and Molly were dropped off at Mt. Rushmore to keep them out of the worst of the fighting. The Skrull get their asses handed to them and then leave.

Flame

He'd burn for her.

Has.

Both in the poetic sense, of love and passion, a raw need to be with an angel.

And in a very literal sense, as in having his wings and skin charred off by an explosion.

All for her of course.

He'd do anything for his Lillie.

He'd let madmen screw metal wings to the place his own majestic ones had once been. Now that they're stumps. His face a map of scars, his hair gone.

He's lived a hundred years for her, done her every request, for a smile. He's more machine than man, all for the woman who never saw him.

propmt from Drabble, on dreamwidth :the hellen keller quote : Life is either daring adventure or nothing.
Security does not exist in nature,
nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.
The fearful are caught as often as the brave

Old Lace knows that there are ways around any order or law, if you're creative (if you have to pee).
Alex knows some rules were meant to be broken.
Gert knows almost everything, except how to survive.

Teenagers think they are immortal.

Chase had been ready to die since he was 13.

Not that anything special had happened that year. It had just started making sense to him then. Everyone dies, some earlier than others.

It was like walking around with a doomsday clock hanging over his head, one only he could see.

Chase never thought someone elses clock would run out before his. He's always assumed he'd be the first to die of anyone he knew.

First his parents.

Then Gert.

Why do the people Chase loves, the people who are better than him always die. Why is he always left. Counting seconds.

Molly loves her Mom,
Runaways comics,
prompt: Mother/Forgiveness
foc drabble at dreamwidth.org

Molly loves her mother because she's her mom, and that's an automatic point in her favour.

Molly hates her Mom, because she hurt kids, and that's bad, no matter why she did it.

Molly loves her Mom, because she bought her Chocolate Frosted CocoaBombs if she promised not to tell Dad.

Molly hates her Mom, because she only bought her her favourite cereal after Molly talked about what she wanted to be when she grew up, or how many kids she was going to have.

She must have felt guilty.

Molly decides that her Mom is too evil to love, but she does anyway.

"Did you change your hat again?"

"Nope, same hat I always wear" Molly said, "Now shhh! I'm finding out if Harry Potter lives."

"I'm pretty sure that's new, Molly. Where exactly are you getting them from anyway? That's the 50th hat I've seen you wear." Chase flopped down beside her on the couch. "Do stores even sell hats like that?"

Molly sighed. "You know Chase, just 'cause I'm not in school doesn't mean I don't want to learn and be smart" She fixes him with her best Gert impersonation and jiggles the book.

She raises the book over her face and smiles.

Geoffery Wilder did it for his son.

True, when this started he was years away from even thinking about kids, but at the time not joining wasn't going to save the world.

Tall, six-toed and freaky had said it themselves; easily replaceable.

But after Alex was born it was all about him.

He's destroyed the souls of children, plotted the apocalypse, but he's done it all for love.

Geoffery Wilder knows he is a good man, deep down, where it counts.

He just has to ignore the road to hell and what it's paved with.
