Eight – Little Fears

Sinking Sprite

“Help,” gasped Sprite.

“It’s OK,” said Cuttle. “You’re just moving on to whatever comes after an ideas life.”

“Like heaven?” asked Sprite.

“I dunno,” shrugged Cuttle. “But if you see Democracy and common sense there, say hello from us. We miss them.”

Sprite squeaked as she sunk beneath the sand. Cuttle looked up and saw another Sprite emerging from the ocean.

“I don’t feel so good,” sighed Sprite.

“She must be a passing thought of a human with a short attention span,” remarked Cuttle. “I blame the internet.”

“Oh shut up, Cuttle,” sighed Parrotfish. “It’s a sad moment when good ideas are overlooked as easily as a garden fence.”

Where am I?

“Excuse me,” said Sprite, “can you help? I don’t know where I am or how I’ve been here before.”

“This is where thoughts pass through to the afterlife,” sighed Parrotfish. “So you’re an idea of sorts.”

“What idea am I?” asked Sprite.

“Well,” replied Parrotfish, “how would you describe yourself in three words?”

“Not very good with numbers,” sighed Sprite.

Rabbit On

“Another Sprite, passing through,” sighed Cuttle.

“Another?” asked Sprite. “There’s more of me?”

“Thousands, apparently,” grumbled Cuttle. “It’s like magic. Your kind reproduces faster than rabbits.”

“Well,” fired back Sprite, “you pulled that insult out of the hat!”

Shore-Line

“I think I’m lost,” sighed Sprite.

“Funny,” said Jellyfish, “I just lost my wife while she was working down by the shoreline.”

“Working?” asked Sprite. “What does she do here?”

“Oh, it’s hard to say,” sighed Jellyfish. “She sells sea shells on the seashore.

Tool Drop

“I do,” laughed Spectre. “I saw it all.”

“What happened?” asked Sprite.

“Well,” started Spectre, “as Snake chased you out of the building, a tradesman dropped a tool off the roof which whacked her on the head.”

“Oh that makes sense,” pondered Sprite. “I mean, one moment she was right behind me, then the next, BOSCH!”

Crowbar

“They were dark days for smart birds,” remarked Clouds.

“What’s that?” asked a passing Clouds.

“Just remembering what it was like before crowbars were invented,” remarked Clouds.

“Most crows could only drink from home,” smirked Clouds.

Global Meet

“Was that Desmond?” asked Lucy.

“Yeah,” replied Ant. “Didn’t think I’d see him again after he stole me tiny antique globe and left the country.”

“Aha,” chuckled Lucy. “He should have known it’s a small world.”

Oven Baked

“Mate,” said Ptera, “you look peeved!”

“I’m furious,” grumbled Yuffie. “Just left a restaurant where we ordered oven baked giant-duck.”

“Didn’t it taste very nice?” asked Ptera.

“It was alright,” sighed Yuffie, “but the bill was huge.”

I’ve mentioned before that I make far more content than I need. Doodles, stories and new characters. I create at least twice as much as I will use and discard the stuff I won’t use. I’ve got a couple of folders for stuff that I might use someday but not yet.

In a week-long display of disorganisation, I’m convinced I’ve used the last five pictures before, but I’ll be darned if I can remember when and where. Better planning in future required, I think!

Laundry Room

“Kraken, you looked wrecked,” observed Black.

“Mate I tell ya,” sighed Kraken. “I spent the whole night arguing with the missus about laundry.”

“Oh aye?” pondered Black. “How’d that work out?”

“At 2 am,” grumbled Kraken, “I folded.”
