Flysight came within inches of not getting posted because MerliNarnia in ENGLAND. what was I even thinking? I was so worried that people would think Morgana being immortal didn't make any sense. I think I mostly did it for the Morgana/Susan, in truth. Edmund came in in the background, like he does so often, and kind of appropriated Merlin for his own devious ends. I wanted to parallel Morgana with Susan, to let Morgana and Susan meet someone else completely destroyed by legends. Probably my favorite part of the whole thing was the implication at the end that Morgana had seen the train wreck in her visions and hadn't told Susan or the others. First sentence: Time is slipping away from Susan's grasp as she strives vainly to pin it down and keep it here where she can see it and manage it. Last ... fair bit: The phone rings and Morgana gets up. "I need to be going," she says, and kisses Susan on the cheek. The phone shrills again. "When will I see you again?" Susan asks, and Morgana shakes her head. "I don't know," she says. "There's something I have to do." She throws a glance at the phone involuntarily, remembering the news it will bring, and then turns and leaves. Behind her Susan says "hello?" As Morgana reaches the gate, she hears something break behind her.
Oh, man, Sokka. I don't do Avatar much, but how can you not love Sokka? and he's so intimately connected with water, really - through his friends, through his family, through his home and his fishing and everything he learned growing up. I think probably my favorite part was having him remember his first warrior training, when he was young, and all the technique names being named after water. First sentence: When Sokka was young his father had taught him the three basic stances every warrior must know - the wave, the iceberg, and the snowfall. Last sentence: The Southern Water Tribe buries their dead beneath the sea, sending them home, safe in the water that has been their life.
