I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Five

Iron Lily. One of the first. Before the flashiness of Mistress Miracle, the gleam and shine of Aurum and Argentia, the new world of Divinus in his Overtower, there was Iron Lily.

Strength of a freight train, skin like iron. Glamorous? Certainly not. Beloved? Oh, yes. She could get up to fifty mph, and could hit like a runaway diesel. Impervious to most harm. Most.

In the end, it was cancer that took her. She lived life as hard as she hit, and finally it hit back.

But the fire in her heart, fierce as a boiler, never left her.

"I'll take you, with the crappy 3-colored hat. And you, over there."

The rest mill around for a while, refusing to believe that's it. There is grumbling, talk of preferential treatment for former farmhands.

The complaints break into silence as another Boss approaches the Work Shed. He's been on the road some time. His sides are heaving.

"I'll take you two." He huffs. "Hands off the leather."

Because books.

Yay for Sox joining us!

These are all fabulous. Meanwhile I'm still dithering over which picture to use.

It used to be a weekly thing. A prompt would be posted every Monday and we'd go to town. I think we all got a little burnt out on it. But if Perkins is willing to play moderator for a while, it could become regular again. You up for it, Perkins?

How often do drabble prompts happen? They used to happen every Monday! Teppy was our awesome drabble mistress. When she needed a little break, we sort of ... slacked off. Once in a while someone steps up with prompts, but we've had sort of a dearth of drabbles for a while.

Lee took over for Tep for a while, a while back, and then she decided to link the photos (which we've done in the past, just never from the Library of Congress) for inspiration. Because she rocks like that.
