Series: Mirror, Darkly: One Title: Red Ribbons Rating: PG Event: 100 word dash Words: 100 Summary: In a world where Roger stayed in Carthak, King Roald dies.
-
Jon ran his fingers over the smooth finish of his father’s desk, finding an odd justice in the raw corners. He imagined his father sitting in the practical, yet plush chair, chipping the varnish each time he scoot forward.
The top draw pulled smoothly open, filled with letters tied in ribbons. Violet for Carthak. Green for Galla. Yellow for Scanra. Red for Roger.
The red sat on top.
Jon weighed the pile in his hands, realizing Roger had shared more words with his father since his mother’s death than he. Clutching at his black velvet sleeve, Jon let himself hurt.

Ouch! This is wonderfully written, very vivid - and so raw! I love the emotion you've captured in so few words!
