labyfic / Drabble #68: Merry (Reply)

...we again had a quieter response to the drabble prompt of Drabble 67, with entries by me (your intrepid drabble proposer

jalenstrix) and the terrific

3iggy, who also both represented with the commenting love.

Mwah! But, oh my larger drabbling labyfic collective, come back to ussssssssss! We miss you.

For this prompt, we continue with our one-word drabble roots, focusing on a word that can be associated with the month of May:

Merry

Oh, the merry month of May...do tell us exactly how and why it's so merry. All the merriment. All of it.

Given our entries from last month, let's up the limit for this month to 400 words. Though remember that shorter pieces are most definitely welcome!

Your entry should take the following format, posted as a comment on this entry:

Word count: # of words
Drabble: $your_beautiful_drabble

I'll aim to get the next drabble challenge out on the first Friday of next month (June 1).

I'm also very happy to take suggestions if something in particular strikes your fancy -- comment on this post or PM me with your suggestions. You can see our current collected suggestions here.

Remember: Feedback is LOVE. So do reply to your fellow labyficcers' drabbles if so inclined. (Though be careful of concrit unless specifically okayed by the author beforehand.)
