In today’s microfic1 of The Looking Glass Saga, a quick look at Rayne after catching Alice looking in the mirror back in Paint the Roses Red.
Rayne saw what was in the mirror. Alice talked about Wonderland as a child. After that afternoon, Rayne thought she was seeing things. She thought they were all in her head.
But they were in the mirror too. The mirror…
It was in her head. It had to be.
In today’s microfic1 of The Looking Glass Saga, a quick look at Alice’s father living with a child like Alice.
Whenever she read there were flowers. When she dreamed, the flowers talked. From the walls, through the floors, growing from nothing. It wasn’t normal.
There would be no madness in this house. No more dreams. No more stories. He would make her normal.
I’ve started writing little bits of microfiction1 that are 250 characters or less. Because I like a challenge. Here is one from during Jabberwocky’s Book, when Sarah is taken by the Bandersnatch.
“Please don’t eat me!” Rob yelled as he ran away.
Those words doomed Sarah to a lifetime of being frozen. Not eaten, but forever still with only her thoughts. She would never be free again.
But the words that trapped her…
She would have done the same.
