drabbles week two: rewrite

GHM DRABBLE CHALLENGE

HOW TO PLAY?
  • Every Monday, I will post a prompt. You have until the following Monday to write and reply with a 100-200 word fic, i.e. a 'drabble', inspired by the prompt. (For an extra challenge, try to hit exactly 100 words!)
  • You can reply with the full text of the drabble, or link out to another site like Ao3, Tumblr, etc.
  • Any rating is permitted; please warn for NSFW and content where appropriate.

  • WHAT ELSE?
  • Don't worry if you missed last week: you can go back and write a late response anytime.
  • You may post more than one response to a single week's prompt.
  • If you're inspired to continue your drabbles, you're welcome to connect multiple challenge responses to each other, or expand on your fics outside of the challenge.

  • week two:

    Notes: another sort of future to consider
    Word count: 100

    It’s another humid day where time feels at a standstill, stagnant air hanging in place. Sumio peers out the office window, and finds himself slipping into a familiar habit.

    He visualises a rural town, a florist. She’s there, now a lovely grown woman, tending to potting mix with a smile. What about a cafe? Wearing a small apron, she serves coffee with a kind hand. A library, now. Pushing a book cart between tables, a sparkle in her eye.

    A hard hand clapping over his shoulder brings him back to the Wards. Tetsu says something, and Sumio doesn’t hear him.
