Dragon

He was beautiful.

Celestine stood there, watching, and could barely remember to breathe.

His ruby red scales glinted in the sun as he flew, his wide wings almost blocking out the sun that made him glitter. He turned towards them, and those shadows loomed over them. They straightened up as he drew closer and closer to the cliff.

And then-

He landed.

Dust rose up and, despite themself, they coughed. When they were done, they looked up, right into a pair of beautiful eyes.

Eyes that glinted like embers stared at them.

The dragon was here to claim his princess.

Baker

The baking had begun.

The smell of baking bread mixed with the smell of chocolate as she mixed the next batch to go into the oven. Outside, the lowering moon hung full and bright.

Her back ached already. She knew, by the end of the day, that the ache would be worse. Her hands were sticky with dough. She fought back a yawn.

She needed to finish the cookies and start on the muffins. Today, she needed to fulfill an order for croissants. She needed to work hard, just like every day.

It was worth it, to feed her village.

Doctor

They trusted her with their lives.

How silly. How stupid. How could they think to do that to her? She was a stranger to them. They thought because of a fancy title that they could trust her.

She stood over the sleeping patient, studying her face. She was so stupid. She could do anything to her, and-

"Doctor?"

She blinked and glanced back. A nurse smiled at her. "Yes? Is everything alright?"

"The patient in 205 is waking up. You wanted to talk to them?"

"Ah, yes. I'll be there."

The nurse walked out, leaving her there.

Trust. How strange.

Exile

They had exiled him.

She stood in the window, watching the procession. In the center, the exiled heir to the throne struggled, fighting against the guards. His voice called out to the people, letting them know he wouldn't stay gone.

"I'll be back! I promise! I shall claim my throne again from these usurpers!"

She looked away. She waited until his yelling went distant and then silent.

"The queen's a fool," her brother said next to her. "They should've just killed him. He'll be a headache for everyone else."

For his crimes? She agreed.

Exile was too good for him.

Day 4 - Cup + Day 21 — Love Potion

The cup was full of a bubbling pink liquid.

Honestly, it looked a tad ridiculous. The potion looked as though it was meant for crystal vials or a round bottle, not a coffee mug that had worn lipstick stains.

"Are you really sure you want to try that? You could explode."

"It's your first potion! I want to try it. And, if I explode, you'll know it was out of love."

Before he could respond, she picked up the coffee mug and threw back the potion.

There was a undertone of coffee to the primrose and sugar.

She savored it.

Day 26: Pirate — Drabble Challenge May 26

✦ farmer!levi x milkmaid!reader

It happened during one of those late evenings. You’d stepped away briefly and came back to find Levi in your spot – the good one, closest to the fire – completely settled.

“Levi.”

“It was empty,” he said simply.

“That doesn’t mean–” you gave up. “You’re a pirate.”

That, somehow, made him laugh. A rare sound that you felt in your chest.

“Pirates take what they want.”

“Really? And what’s your plan?”

He reached for you until you were sideways across his lap—legs over the armrest, back against his shoulder, his arm around your waist.

“This,” he whispered into your hair.
