Midnight, Lapis Lazuli 15: Cancel All Our Vows
Author: Kat
Title: Cancel All Our Vows
Story: Shine Like It Does
Colors: Midnight 4 (Abolish), lapis lazuli 15 (aloof) with paint-by-numbers (Jack doesn't understand why)
Supplies and Materials: Graffiti (Lilith Faire Main Stage: Loosen the Knot, Lissie), chalk (how to tell if a volcano is active, dormant, or extinct), glitter (As If I Am Someone Else, Douglas Piccinnini), miniature
Word Count: 100
Rating: PG
Summary: Vera leaves Jack.
Warnings: none.
Notes: The poem Jack and Vera briefly quote is Since there's no help, come let us kiss and part by Michael Drayton. The title also comes from there.
He looked shocked, stricken. Only for a moment though; Jack had always been good at hiding his feelings.
Vera managed a smile. "It's time, don't you think?"
"I guess," he said, shrugging a shoulder. "I mean, I thought things were going well."
They were, but... "We weren't going anywhere, honey. You know that."
"I guess," he said again, which meant that he didn't. "Vera..."
She held up a hand, involuntarily. "No, honey. Don't."
Jack nodded, resigned. "Come, let us kiss and part?"
"Since there's no help," she answered, and blew him a kiss.
It was the least she could do.
