I like that I haven't posted here since foreverago, lmao.
I'll do a normal post in the future, I swear, I'm not dead.
Title: Fortress
Rated: NR, no need.
Characters: Madison and Edison, and their cat.
Summary: A memory from their childhood.
We built ourselves a fortress
made of stacked books and blankets.
Our fortress of solitude,
where only ourselves were permitted,
and the cat.
We had one flashlight, one pillow, and one cat.
One way in,
Only one way out.
The dim light from the hallway was our moonlight
the faint ticking of the second hand of a distant clock were our crickets.
We had one flashlight.
We built ourselves a fortress
built it on secrecy and solitude.
No one was allowed in.
No one allowed out.
At some point, our cat would escape,
bored of the quiet nothing.
He would run after.
And I would be alone.
I had one flashlight.
One way out.
No one was allowed in.
I...
... was trapped
Alone in this fortress of solitude.
