Drabble #200: Fiery

[jalenstrix]

...we had a nice response to my last posted drabble prompt of Drabble 196, with entries by redwolf and apachefirecat, and commenting by the fabulous redwolf, apachefirecat, and me (jalenstrix), one of your intrepid drabble proposers. Huzzah!

As always, special labyfic love to redwolf for adding entries and comments for several previous drabble prompts. Onward, drabblers, inspired by our redwolf!





For this prompt, we continue with our one-word/phrase drabble roots:

Fiery

Who or what is fiery, and what's the cause (and the result)? Tell us all about it. Labyfic-style, of course.




Given our entries from recent months, let's continue with the suggested limit for this month of 500 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

I'll aim to get my next drabble challenge out on the first Friday of next month (Apr 4).

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. Authors generally write for love.)

LOL Our King definitely knows kids! ;)

I love your stories with the Goblins getting into all kinds of mischief. Reminds me of some things I wrote years ago. I've always been surrounded by a lot of cats, and they tend to be great inspiration for the kinds of things the Goblins would find playful as well. :)

True story -- they've taken to using my front windshield for a slide lately. I'll be sitting in my parked car, making a phone call or whatever, and they'll just come running up over the back of it and slide down the front. LOL The two species, and three if you include human kids, do have quite a bit in common!

If you didn't find ways to channel goblin energy or tried to fight against it instead, I don't think you'd last long.

Your cats are hilarious! 🦊🧡

Totally agreed -- on both! LOL :)
