The Story

Posted: by Amelie Gray in



He is the predator.

She is the unsuspecting victim.

But is that really the whole story?

This venture into Darkward started out as a tweet from a bored fanfiction author on a rainy day. In so many words, I offered a gift!fic to whoever wanted to reply back with a prompt. I was expecting a single word, or maybe an image.

YellowGlue, one of my then new friends on Twitter, responded back with a single sentence that opened a Pandora's Box of possibility:

He looked down and watched as her toes curled nervously in their rainbow-striped socks, and he knew right away he shouldn't trust her.

The rest, as they say, is history.
