the song drabble meme



It's pretty simple and fun, folks. This is how this works!

( 01 ) Have a playlist ready! Don't use all your songs--try and narrow it down a little.
( 02 ) Let everyone know how many songs you're working with. Also, which characters you would be willing to write about.
( 03 ) Others tag your post, picking a character or pairing or friendship or familial relationship or whatever, and then choose a number from your list.
( 04 ) Write a drabble related to that song, using that/those character(s)!

Take as long as you need; there's no time limits here!
And here's some helpful HTML to make it pretty!

Drumming Song - Florence + The Machine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpLXQorSQe8)

God, he gives her a headache.

She's pretty sure it's his voice -- the way it grates on her ears and makes her nauseous. He's always yelling about something, usually robots, robots in Canada and attempting to take over the station. It doesn't even make sense to her, and Jade is fairly certain that sometime before she came to Sacrosanct that Karkat just lost his mind, though she's not entirely sure where he's hiding it.

Sometimes, she almost finds him endearing, the way he's kind of got a few screws missing.
That doesn't last long.

They're standing on a cliff overlooking the ocean -- both visiting Jack, both bored and looking for something to do. She stands with her back to the drop, hands on her hips. Once again, she's watching him remonstrate.

"I'm telling you Harley, they're out to get us! I found a midget robot in my fort this morning and do you know what I did? I took it out and killed it that's what!"

Yawn. Not this again.

"What the fuck are you doing?" Karkat's voice breaks through her thoughts and Jade blinks, looking behind her. Her heels have hit the edge of the cliff and she holds her arms out, almost like she's trying to fly. There are no rocks below her -- she knows, from experience. But knowing Karkat, he has no idea what'll happen if she jumps. Maybe the rush will get rid of her headache.

"Goodbye cruel world! Oh I can't take it anymore, Karkat talked me to death!" Feigning illness, or possibly suicide, Jade grinned at the troll and fell backwards, off the cliff. She'd done this before, of course, at home where the water was deep. It was exhilarating, the idea of falling into oblivion. Jade twisted so that she was in a diving position, plunging into the sea and popping up a few seconds later. Looking up, she could see Karkat sputtering, and faintly she could even make out a few stray FUCK YOU HARLEYs as he wondered what to do.

That was the day Jade learned that lowbloods couldn't swim, as Karkat lobbed himself off the cliff and into the ocean, screaming death threats at her approaching figure and the water below.

She had to tow him back to shore. He was still blaming robots.
