Fog Grey: A Poetry Collection

[finch]

Name: Jack
Story: Empty Sky
Colors: Fog Grey
Supplies and Styles: Saturation, Graffiti,
Word Count: 900ish total
Rating:
Warnings: aside from warning for awkward rhyme schemes, I think we're okay
Notes: Oh it's NaPoWriMo, I said. I should write a bunch of poems for that April Showers challenge for Rainbow Fic, I said. Why am I trying to find rhymes for meteorite at four in the morning, I said.

This grew into an exercise in conveying different speakers through poetry. About half are free verse. Of the rest, roughly speaking, Koushou's is a tanaga, Akane's is a haiku, Keiji's is a shadorma, Wenlong's is a sijo, Chenek's is a ghazal, Vien's is loosely based on a lục bát and Jian's is trying for a classical aesthetic but not a specific form or meter. All errors in syllable counting are my own.

Cloudy Gray

[rootsofthestories]

Name: Sebastian
Story: Despite The Abundance (Magical conmen AU)
Colors: Cloudy Gray
Supplies and Styles: Saturation
Word Count: ~320
Warnings: None
Summary: A saturation of one sentence ficlets for the AU that is basically the one in which Timothy is a god magnet and a supernatural dealmaker, Nathan is still...Nathan, and a fae conman and his half fae son come along and disrupt both their lives but it's really for the better.
Notes I'm struggling to make words happen right now but I did this and that's...something? I guess. It doesn't feel like enough but it's better than nothing, so fuck it, I'm calling it a win. Also, thank you, finch for putting the idea of doing a one sentence saturation in my head because I kinda wanna do this more often.
