Drabble: Ephemera 4

[przed]

Author: P.R. Zed
Fandom: LotRiPS, SB/VM
Notes: Part of the Ephemera series.

The touch of winter haunted the garden. An autumnal chill crept into Sean's bones as he cut down the last, dying remnants of summer's growth. When he’d been with Viggo, the garden had been verdant, lush, alive. But Viggo had moved on and the garden was now a place of brittle, brown stalks and barren trees.

In spring, new growth would thrive again. But what of his bond with Viggo?

Would their connection be a tender shoot, pushing its way up through black earth, or one of this year’s blooms, rotting and forgotten in a dank corner of the garden?

Your language, as usual, is gorgeous (and you managed to work in all the seasons in such a beautiful way! *loves*)

And in mine, reading this drabble. But, you know--in a very, very good way. *hugs every single word* *hugs you* ^_^

Hmm, wierdly, I hadn't noticed I managed to work in all of the seasons. (The mind works in mysterious ways.)

Glad you liked. *hugs you back*

I'm voting for the tender shoot! And wonderful how you worked in the whole cycle of seasons. And could expand it to the whole wheel of creation where things have their time and then pass.

I'm voting for the tender shoot, too. (My SB/VM is usually less angsty than this.)

As for the wheel of creation comment, you've given me an idea. Hmmm...

This is so lovely, and achy. Such vivid language and Sean in his garden reflects the state of his relationship with Viggo so beautifully.

I'm betting on the tender shoot, and that it grows back stronger than ever, ;D

So glad you enjoyed this. And after seleneheart's comment, I have a cunning plan to how I can turn this into a longer piece. *schemes*

Ah! Cunning plans + scheming =P.R. Zed VigBean! I can almost hear the wheels turning from here and am anticipating very good things, *cuddles you* ;)

I'm hopeless, my first draft of this reply read, ::cumming plans:: Heh!
