Caked

Jane looked at the cake in awe.

“Now close your eyes, blow out the candles and make a wish,” said Rebecca.

So Jane did, and she kept her eyes shut until her father stopped breathing.

Crow Call

The corvid sat in the tree outside. Peering through the window. Crows, ravens, rooks and magpies assembled underneath. They’d peer around the curtains, always looking for the televisions.

He left the curtains open and TV on to see if they’d get bored and leave him alone. They sat outside all night. Watching the static and listening to the white noise. Only moving on, when they’d received their instructions.

For all the Fuen’isms I’ve written on this website, she’s never been in a horror/weird fiction story. Funny thing. As a crow spirit, I have a lot of scope to shift her to the weird fiction side. It’s just never occurred to me to do it before.

Do you know what has occurred to me? Putting her on a t-shirt, and I’ve put her on loads over on my Threadless store. Need a link? littlefears.threadless.com

Car Door

“She hasn’t spoken to me all week,” sighed Lucy.

“Oh dear,” replied Yuffie. “What’s happened?”

“She got mad at me because I didn’t open the car door for her,” grumped Lucy.

“Is that all?” pondered Yuffie.

“Yeah,” said Lucy. “I just panicked and swam for the shore…”

If you’re going we’re going to go dark with a pun, we’ll go Lucy dark. If you love our Lucy, you might like to know her portraits available on the Little Fears Etsy store: littlefears.etsy.com
