Summary: A little snippet of Wendy's mother, who has quite a different memory of things than Jaymie does. This was going to be much longer but I still feel like I've been hit by a truck so I went with deliberately-constraining small instead.

Dirt Brown #9

[greenling]

Name: Greenling
Story: All Great Things
Colors: Dirt Brown #9 (Landslide)
Supplies and Styles: Paint-by-numbers (stood and watched the walls come down)
Word Count: 185
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Summary: A dream, from Dmitry's point of view. Somewhat abstract and metaphorical. Probably somewhat incoherent, since I haven't gotten to the point of the story where it's obvious what kind of apocalypse they're actually dealing with or why he's dreaming of himself as a ball of vaguely-magenta light.

Comments, criticism, and questions are all appreciated.

( Floating, suspended; one of a million motes of light moving around a central glow, tiny in comparison, feeling himself as immense as a sun. )
