He noticed then that the sea was stained a myriad of colors. He knelt to touch it, hold it, cup it in his hands. The water flew out and left his palms tinged brown. When he stood again, the ocean was charging toward the horizon - a lone stampede by a huge, stained-glass beast.

Oh, this was beautiful. Your description is so marvelous, and your words are enchanting.

Well, ACTUALLY... there may possibly be some. Somewhere. On my journal. -nudgenudge, winkwink-

Bahahaha. There really is, but I don't have a ficlist for it, so it's kind of all jumbled in there. The most organized form that I have it in is on my fictionpress (which is actually the same name as my LJ, I AM SO ORIGINAL) and there's just two short stories on there. I also do some stuff for the prompt comm heavy_lights, which is amazing.

Okay. Shameless self-promotion over. I CAME HERE TO GIVE YOU PRAISE, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING.
