LJ Idol S11 Week 7: Feckless

[orockthro]

Prompt: Feckless

Synonyms: useless, without effect

It looks so good, dressed up on TV: a little pill, not too big, not too small. White, because white means clarity and health and purity and other marketing things that Henry doesn’t buy into. The commercials show people on a beach, doing slow motion beach things, bright glowing light dancing on

I really enjoyed your take on the topic.

Now I want to know if the cure works! 😉

"San Francisco is a good city to be dead in." I can see that as a headline in a travel magazine. "The 10 Best Cities for the Undead." Or perhaps articles about how vampire culture is under siege from Big Pharma. Clearly, I love your story. It was imaginative and well written. I wish I could do doing slow motion beach things.

I like the POV here, and the description of how the wastrel vampire life has lost its appeal.

Ohh, what a cliffhanger! Very curious what would've happened next.
