Waking Up Mortal: a "Fated to Pretend" Drabble (PG-13)

[maggatha3]

I have been all over the ''shelves'' of your office , Librarian 7, and I am so happy that I had a day completely off work and spent it right here..I will pause here for a while, in this bittersweet memory of Mick's mortality so soon to be lost...He will not have his wish granted as far as I know, but if you come to think of a different fate for him, I would really love to read it...enjoying mortality with Beth..

Somewhere upthread, a couple of folks mentioned how wonderful the lighting was in the scene. I agree, wholeheartedly--the lightning, the acting, the writing, the filming, the editing, the set design, the wardrobe, the music, the voiceover, did I say the actor?

Oh, shoot. Everything was wonderful!

This fabulous, short piece summed up Mick's feelings--his joy at experiencing the simple things we take for granted, and his sorrow at not being able to wake with Beth.

I choose to hope that that is still something he will experience, one day. Hey, he could get some more of the cure.

Thank you!

He never got what he really wanted as a human always hoped he got that experience as a vampire.
