Happy DANGER DAYS :D
To continue with my trend of "rl, what rl?", let's skip all the house moving drama, the movie seeing experience (omg ç___ç) and the work related stuff and focus on other, way more exciting things like the fact that TODAY IS DANGER DAYS DAY! :D
Now, what I planned to do today to celebrate this most joyous event was to listen to DD on repeat all day long. Of course![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
angelgazing had other ideas and said "I think maybe Danger Days should be celebrated with killjoy art. NAME YOUR PRICE? :D?" I was very tempted to ask her to finish one of her WIPs, but it has been established that angelgazing and I work best when we start from the same source material, and so my price was "Write me a killjoy drabble from the kid's pov!" I SUPPOSE THIS DRABBLE WILL BE COMING VERY SOON TO A COMPUTER SCREEN NEAR YOU THE DRABBLE IS HERE! "The Same Old Story"! GO READ IT NOW OMG!. In the meantime, here is my part of this fabulous bargain
There is also a bigger version available :)

Kobra tells it he's repeating the weather report. No, like other people are reading the weather report. Like those in Battery City say it, bored and lacking. She sits with her hands on her knees and her feet tucked under her. He slouches, and she was taught to never do that, but she was taught a lot of things, and none of them were the truth until now.
Fun tells it with long drawn out pauses and voices as spooky as he can make them. He gets quiet--barely even whispering--then suddenly shouts. He pokes her in the side randomly. He makes her jump and laugh and be too loud, and later, when she can't sleep and it's his turn to keep watch, he pins a button on her coat for luck. He teaches her how to shoot a gun, and sometimes, when dawn is crawling up and the dust is covering their boots, his mouth twists down and she holds onto his hand so he won't be afraid.
Jet teaches her to hack the machines. He teaches her to read maps, and tell directions, and how to know she's still got too far too go to stop. The last one is a trick, because the answer is always, and she can never stop. When he's telling the story, he's telling her why. Jet tells it like an explanation, and a reason--like something that will give her purpose. He pretends that the letters she sends to her mom will get there someday, and they both know it's the biggest lie he's ever told.
Party--Gerard, he says, like real names aren't secrets and passwords and ways to tell the truth--he always starts it with once upon a time. He tells the story like a fairytale, like something far, far away and long, long ago. She wears his mask and he spins tales into something grand and wonderful, like daydreams of princes and happily ever after, and things she can barely remember now. He kisses her forehead, like her mother used to, and the way it echos inside her makes her think she's probably empty. "Girl," he says, when she starts to cry behind the mask, "Girl, one day, you're gonna fall in love."
It doesn't matter how it's told, not really, it's always the same story. It's always hers. It's always the truth.

Re: I give uuuup. /o\
Honestly, at first I was going to TELL the story, but then I realized that was not actually the prompt. /o\ But IDK if I'll write more. It was surprisingly hard, and I suspect I will get Jossed quickly. Though, OMG still needs a title. WHY ARE TITLES SO HARD? >:(
*HUGS*
Re: I give uuuup. /o\
Also, ahah, you could have totally wrote that instead! You know what? Write The Story and I'll make art for you (...and now I owe you *counts* oh! Only eight drawings! That is the shortest to do list I've ever had :D)
Re: I give uuuup. /o\
I fail at all the writing!
