If you see a neon sign on the train right back to the inevitable
For the second year in a row, which marks some kind of fandom record for me, I am participating in
threesentenceficathon. So far I have written three fills and am enjoying the diversity of canons from myth to television to nineteenth-century novels. The time I spent this evening with a nosebleed feels gratuitous and the consumption of the afternoon by phone calls definitely was, but last night my godchild showed off both his mermaid sitting and his hair in progress—I have since received documentation of its color-correction—and my god-aunt sent me a link to the Technicolor jazz noir of Sandra Boynton's "C.A.T." (2019). The end of this week will see a conjunction of Venus and Saturn, which sounds as though it should occasion a masque. I remain tired to the point of absurdity, uncharmed by the shape of the year, here.

You got a nosebleed on a massive full moon and I almost texted you to ask your godchild where my Tarot pack has gone. (I'm giving him until tomorrow. Today was the four of cups.)

Thank you! They represent my first fiction in ages and were probably possible because they don't feel like they count. I put two of them—not the Labyrinth one because I haven't heard what the recipient thinks of it—on AO3.
I particularly like the one for Labyrinth because, as the commenter said, there's always a price.
You can't offer up somebody else's liver!

Oh, so it is a full moon. Put that cup back where you found it.

Every bit of fiction counts. *hugs*

That seems both elegant and ominous.

(And "not counting" is the joy of commentfic. Of course, it does really, but it also doesn't, and that's much needed and and lovely and very freeing - and, look, words!)
*hugs for the rest*

(I know. I just want more words and of different kinds and more time to write them!)

And so you should! <3 (I hope you get them.)

I'm enjoying it! The flash length seems to be a remit my brain can reliably cope with.
Your fills are all wonderful, but the one for my prompt is obviously the best--yes, I'm being very objective here!
I trust you!
I'm also uncharmed (and unimpressed) by this year so far, but bits of good fiction make it more bearable. Thank you again!
Thank you for being an occasion for writing!
*hugs*

That's one of the reasons I like it so much. I can participate, even during the worst part of summer.
