Old Lace 7: Protection
Author: Kat
Title: Protection
Story: In the Heart
Colors: Old lace 7 (I hope you dear young people will never realize how very wicked the world is.) with Sara's paint-by-numbers (Gail knows she can't always protect her kids from the world.)
Supplies and Materials: Miniature, brush (peccant), feathers (The girl who disappears from the pool/will never return. A woman will return,/looking for the girl she was.).
Word Count: 100
Rating: PG
Summary: If Gail could change her children, she might.
Warnings: none
Notes: Yeah, this... yeah.
If Gail could change her children—and she isn't proud of this answer, but it's true—she might.
It's not that there's anything wrong with them. On the contrary, her children are perfect, or as close to it as possible while being, respectively, overly acquiescent, impossibly stubborn, and painfully shy. But she knows what the world will do to them.
It will take advantage of Aaron. It will attack and harass Ivy. And Summer, her poor Summer, it will brutalize Summer if it can. She can't protect them forever.
She might change her children.
She'd rather change the world.
