Drabble: Dreams (The Broke Legacy)

[simgaroop]

Prompt: "Anything and everything involving Helena" (by strange_tomato)
Universe: The Broke Legacy
Pics: 17







She dreams of a yellow house, right in the middle of the desert,




complete with a thriving flower garden, both earned after so many years of hard work and learning.




She dreams of the seven presents that destiny has unexpectedly left for her.




She dreams of their games,




their music,




and their dancing.




She dreams of their hopes, their curiosity




and their laughter.




She dreams of a family,




so similar, yet so different to any other one you have ever met.




She dreams of cool desert evenings, wondering about those who are now living among the stars,




She dreams of wicked grins and dirty jokes,




of those long afternoons dedicated to artistic creation,




that slowly transform into nights of passion.




She dreams of love,




so similar, yet so different to any other one you have ever experienced.




But then, she wakes up.

- This drabble was actually part of the Gen 5.7. update, but it also worked as a stand alone short story. This was mostly an "update" on what has happened to Helena and her family during the last five years.

- Now, you may wonder what made Helena "wake" from her idyllic life, right? Well, that's a secret for now ;).

- All right, two prompts down, three more to go:
1. Bunker's story, prompt by xel_squirgle_ox (Twin Town)
2. Super Duper Hugs, prompt by showercapfrog (Broke Legacy, but this takes place waaaay in the past).
3. Failing an exam, prompt by blackrosesredxo (Twin Town)

And of course, I have to finish Gen 5.7. and I sort of want to continue with Twin Town now that I've recovered Pumpkin's character file. So it seems there's still stuff to do for my sort-of-Nano project ^^.

It's beautiful. ^_^

I'm interested in hearing about what wakes her up from this. Things are never simple, are they? It's not surprising that something eventually happens to break the calm, especially given the situation here.

(On a different note, the shot of Ripp posing nude with the insane, dirty grin is priceless. XD)

Beautifully written :) And of course, I now really want to know what makes her wake up ^^;

Nonononnononononononono! You can NOT take Helena's happiness away! Not after she went through so much and worked so hard for her family! :(

That makes me sad...but I can't wait to see what will happen to Helena and her family^^

Ahhhh! I want to know what happened! :< I hope nothing too bad...I loved it anyway, actually I would have myself requested something about Helena if strange_tomato hadn't been first. Helena is definitely one of my favourite characters, and I also love her huge family.

I loved it. Helena's life has always been fascinating, so I cannot wait to see what's causing her to wake up from her dreams.

Have they helped your writer's block?
