EVERYTHING TAKES YOU BACK
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.

Things were supposed to be simple today. Nice, even. Just a pleasant date at the Gold Saucer, playing games, maybe going to watch (or smell, whatever) that stupid play, or even that chocobo race or something. That’s what normal people did on those things, right? No killing, no maiming, and especially no dumb bullshit.
Yeah, right.
Terezi cocked her head and sniffed skyward towards the source of the dry heat pounding down, undoubtedly smelling something lemony and completely bullshit, like butterscotch or something. Who even knew. The wind swirled around them, kicking up sand and grit from the streets of Corel Prison, and already Dave was itching to remove his suit jacket. This was so stupid.
“Huh. That was not as planned.”
It was all Dave could do to reach deep down into the cold wellsprings of coolkid stoicism and not-flipping-off-the-handle-ness as he turned to give the troll A Look. It was A Look of unfathomable awesomeness mixed in with a ton of kickassery and -- if he was being completely honest with himself -- a little bit of what the fuck is even wrong with you. “We just got arrested and kicked out of Gold Saucer forever and all you can say is ‘not as planned’?”
“I didn’t think they’d react like that!”
“You killed all the fucking racing chocobos, what did you think was going to happen?”
Terezi huffed and crossed her arms, looking offended. “I still don’t get what I did wrong. Those cluckbeasts were huge! Was that some sort of weird human ritualistic competition where they prove their worth by riding the most dangerous creatures known to trolldom in some crazy adrenaline-fueled bout of insanity? Do you have any idea what would have happened if those things rampaged? I was doing everyone a favor.”
“Those things are domesticated. And herbivorous.”
“Big deal! There’s no domesticating a cluckbeast. They only pretend to eat greens. Deep down inside they’re savage creatures, just waiting for the right moment to strike! Have you ever seen one peck someone’s eyes out? It’s not pretty!”
“You’re blind, how did you -- you know what, whatever, let's just work on finding a way out of here.”
Without waiting for a response, Dave turned and started walking towards the ruined shambles of what used to be a town. Moments later Terezi linked her arm with his and grinned at him cheerfully, apparently still proud queen of Totally Not Getting It. Dave did not sigh and intertwine their fingers, because that was not the coolkid thing to do, but if she wanted to go ahead and do that he wasn't going to stop her.
God, how had his life even come to this.
