Terra // Batch 04
So... this place is pretty dead, but I'm still trying to work on my challenge. I hope that's okay? :)
Subject: Terra
Themes in Batch: Cold, Sky, Fight
Themes Completed: 18/30
07. cold (things change!terra)
She splashes her face with cold water and watches the beads run slowly down her face. Uncertain eyes stare back through the looking glass, stealing glances at the girls standing at the other sinks or waiting in line. She recognizes their stares of impatience, but can’t find the motivation to pick up her things and go home.
“Deep breaths, come on, it’s okay.” Her eyes focus on the face of a friend, whose hand now rested comfortingly on the girl’s back. “I’m sure you did well on the geometry test.”
Even though geometry was the furthest thing from her mind.
14. sky (titan!terra)
“Well, goodnight, Terra!”
The door closes itself as she turns to walk to bed, unabashedly shedding articles of clothing across the floor. Letting out a small sigh of exhaustion, she collapses onto the bed with barely the energy to turn over onto her back. Fighting the Slade-bots and the ensuing celebration really took it out of her.
Momentarily she expects to see the sprawling sky laid out before her, and almost panics at the sight of the walls and a roof. They were so nice to paint her walls with a desert and stars, but it just wasn’t the same.
21. fight (traveler!terra)
I’ve always loved sitting on cliffs. From the side, I can see everything in front of me, every change that comes over the horizon. Sometimes I wish life were like this, with every choice I have right there in front of me. I could see everything; no more bad decisions, no more messing up.
I can feel the rocks start to give way, beckoning me to the canyon below, and I don’t so much as blink to stop them. It’s easier to just give in, don’t fight it. Breathe in; breathe out; in, out. Take me down, falling, falling forever.
