Update + a poem

[timepiececlock]

In the world of fanfiction...

My post- 3x12 fanfic is starting to look like an actual tangible thing. I've got notes for 15 short chapters, kind of a serial collection of Zuko's interactions with various characters, some repeated obviously.

I took the snippet titles from a second list of 64 prompts that I once made for akavertigo as a supplement/sequel to the 64damn_prompts list. I actually made three lists in total, the second being my favorite I think. Obviously what I have so far represents only a fraction of the prompts; I don't intend to write a 64-part fic.


And now, a poem!


William Blake

The Clod and the Pebble


Love seeketh not itself to please,
Nor for itself hath any care;
But for another gives its ease,
And builds a Heaven in Hell's despair.

So sang a little clod of clay,
Trodden with the cattle's feet;
But a pebble of the brook,
Warbled out these metres meet.

Love seeketh only self to please,
To bind another to its delight:
Joys in anothers loss of ease,
And builds a Hell in Heaven's despite.
