Title: Love Reigns Rating: R Pairing: Kara/Halef Seif Event: 100 Word Dash Word Count: 100 Summary: Things move when she’s mad, and sometimes it rains when she cries. (thank you, Rosie, for the title! <3)
“Do you cry because I’ve hurt you?” Halef asked, wiping tears from Kara’s cheeks with the back of his thumb. She had seemed joyous as they’d consummated their marriage, but now he wasn’t as sure.
“Yes. No. I think it’s more that I’m weeping because now I can show you how much I love you.”
She rolled over with her back toward his chest; he positioned himself against her, stroking her dark hair and listening to the raindrops that fell against the tent ceiling above them; she had lost control of her magic in her moments of pain and love.

This is a very tender, intimate moment, and I love how you've touched on this sacredness of "the first time." It's not just pretty, but moving.

Aw, I didn't want the blame for that pun I think it's gorgeous, and I love the effect of the pathetic fallacy, and how she loses control in the openness of that moment.
