Title: Roger & Alanna Rating: G Prompt: Villain Category: 100 words Word Count: 100 Summary: Because villains always learnt the lesson too late.
They had it all wrong. Alexander of Tirragen did not willingly fall to the darkness. It was chance’s fault that he had been burnt, for chance had favoured Roger of Conte and Alan of Trebond. And both had refused to give him a second chance. It wasn’t he who had turned his back on friendship.
Because villains always learnt the lesson too late. For Alex, his was that there were two kinds of villain in the world. The one who gave you everything that you did not want. And the one who took away everything that you did.

'It was chance’s fault that he had been burnt'
I love this line. So wonderful, with a hint of bitterness.

I really like the last line. He seems to accept that he made the wrong choice and that he wanted what he couldn't have (I don't really know how to phrase...arg)

WOW. <3
This is some excellent Alex. I love that Alanna and Roger are equal but opposite in his eyes.

Wow. I really love how you made me second guess everything I thought I knew about these particular relationships.
