Title: Scarves Rating: PG-13 Couple/Character: Lark Event: Love Long Jump Words: 226 Summary: Lark crushes on a young singer. Warning: Alludes to potential sexual acts.
It was the height of summer, and I had a break between sets. I stepped away from the group a little to fix my yellow scarf. It always amazed me the number of ways that everyone found to wear their required garment. I tended to wear it triple wrapped around my neck, so the ends could flutter when danced and tumbled without getting in the way. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see the reason I really had stepped away from everyone I knew and loved. A hundred yards more or less down on the other side of the street there stood a young singer with the voice of a lark. I knew from careful observation that she wore her scarf woven through her long black hair. I could never have pulled off a look like that, but on her, the bright yellow contrasted like a sun beam in a darkened room. The sight of her lightened my day in a way that few things ever had., and the things I wished she could do to the her seemed to range from sweet to completely obscene.
Just as I knew she should be getting back to work, the singer smiled a little and lifted her hand in a wave. Blushing I smiled and waved a little before turning to return to the troupe.

Lovely fic, especially with the allusion to where Lark might have gotten her name from.
I did find one flaw:
"I tended to wear it triple wrapped around her neck"
Should be:
"I tended to wear it triple wrapped around my neck"

I adore this and love the little bits about both characters. You have Lark's voice down very nicely!
