#LesFicFri: regret

If only life was as easy to fix as a painting!

“Just do it, then. If it’s going to bug you, you might as well get it right now, when you still can change it, rather than leave it and regret it when it’s finished.”

She was right. Not everything in life could be as easily redone as a painting, but I knew from experience that paint was easy to change. Just paint over the top of it and start over.

I have a great one for this! And it directly precedes my answer for #lesficfri 's "Regret" prompt!

But as we waited at the station, I found a place to sit alone and calm myself. From the bench, I had a beautiful view of the northern lights. The setting sun often set the sky ablaze with a shimmering rainbow of colors reflecting off the World’s Edge.

The northern boundary of our world was pure crystal, extending all the way up to the heavens, and all the way across the land and oceans. Back home, we always had the worst view of the Edge, Sothara being southern half of the western continent. Rarely did we get a chance to see its natural beauty as well as the other kingdoms could.

But as I sat and stared, my mind wandered, thinking about Arthur’s story, about Elissa. Were you inspired by a view like this? Did you imagine the crystals of the wall casting the lights across the sky like magic?

There's a lot of regret going around in my stories.

I wished she was there beside me, so I could ask her. And yet, the thought of doing so caused my chest to tighten, stifling my breath. It was those kinds of questions that had led me astray.

My pursuit of knowledge had blinded me from the pain I was causing. I put others in danger, and even went so far as to hurt them myself. The fear of failure drove me to make so many mistakes that I could never take back.

Yet one mistake among them haunted me far more than the rest. I clasped my hands in prayer and sought a forgiveness that I knew I didn’t deserve.

From Solstice 2015: Pride in WinterTide

“Huh, guess Amanda made good on her promise.” Zaya’s voice was equal parts wonder and bitterness. “Long story short, CG? It used to be Zaya-and-Denise, and now it’s just Zaya and Denise, if you catch my meaning. I fucked up in the most colossal, public way possible. Humiliated someone who didn’t deserve it. And the worst part? I fucking knew better. I knew better and I did it anyway.” The older elf shrugged, mouth pursed in a regretful line. “So I’m gonna be the last person to judge you, ‘kay? Now why don’t you tell me what happened last weekend at Scout’s.”

“I.. didn’t know that that woman was Merz’ ex. She was just some hot Drow who seemed to have good taste in band tees.”

Zaya flashed her a lewd grin. “Aisha likes to wear ‘em low cut.”

From One Bad Tuesday: Ch. 10 - We All Fall Down

archiveofourown.org/series/3436765

Why wait for the inevitable, just do it now, just cut her loose now so you don’t have to watch her fall for someone else and have it break your heart – but, goddess help her, she couldn’t do it now, if she tried she knew she’d cry. Instead, she just shrugged again. “Nah, we can do it later. Go enjoy your evening with your new friends.” Gods, she hadn’t meant to say it like that, but it was too late to take it back. The word was thick with the humidity of the building rain.

🌈📚Happy #lesficfri ! Choosing a line for this week's #SapphicLineShare was actually hard. Apparently, when writing about vampires one will find themself using "dusk", "night", and "evening" quite often. Who knew? This one is from my WIP novel of Estelle waking up after time with her crush Avery.

This *regretting* is pretty much a right of passage for many teens.

#LesFicFri "regret"

from A Prayer for the Pirate Queen 🏴‍☠️ 💜 ⚓️ currently in third draft revisions

Geni latched onto the small amount of interest nonetheless, regretting it even as she did, her ramble carrying her to places she hadn't intended. "I suppose it helped of course that I'd been through it myself, twice. I knew how it gave me mood swings. Sometimes I felt like the most beautiful creature on Ao Rakona, burgeoning with life. Other times I felt so tired and glum, and bloated, and ugly ..."

"You could never be—" Kallista began, then stopped. After a breath, she met Geni's eyes. Geni felt she could almost read the thought behind her eyes: too late to leave it unsaid. "You could never be ugly, Doctor Philistos."
