A drabble for lslaw

“I don’t know if you know him? Janos Caligari?”

An odd shiver runs through me. I don’t know why.

I have no idea who this man is.

No. That’s a lie. I met him once. We met in Cambridge, and he played the piano while I danced. He smelled of woodsmoke, I think, although god knows how.

His card is The Magician and that's an ambivalent card as well. Someone once told me that there's a lot of blood in the human heart. I think he holds more of it than he should.

But I don’t know who he is.

A drabble for annwfyn.

In this world, I met a girl on a patch of waste ground. We sang and we danced, we drank and we kissed. I taught her to fight and she taught me to laugh.

I spoke her doom and I broke her heart.

Years later, she cut me from her mind.

In a world that is not your world, I met a girl on a patch of waste ground. We sang and we danced, we drank and we kissed. I taught her to hate and she taught me to regret.

I spoke her doom and I brought it to pass.
