At Midnight: shallowness


Two lovers slipped out of a party to kiss recklessly.

Two sisters sneaked out of their bedroom to climb up to the forbidden roof garden for an early birthday feast.

A thief let herself into a library, passing priceless books soundlessly, to lift a picture and survey a safe.

A writer lit a candle and started writing in a frenzy.

A baker snored four and a half hours before he needed to rise. His spouse slept on, used to his bed noises.

The city guard changed watch a few minutes late, but no matter, all was as it should be.






Impressed. Batman Forever, Dr Chase Meridian/Bruce Wayne. PG. Drabble. Summary: Chase has a crick in her neck.


Impressed: shallowness


Chase could feel a crick in her neck developing and rubbed at it, hoping it would go away. Why had she had to look up at the Batman swooping through the Gotham night sky, gawping like everyone else? After all, she knew who the man in the suit was. She knew intimately, as intimately as she could have wished when she’d first encountered the Batman.

Chase knew precisely why she’d looked up and stared. Because he was impressive. In more ways than one.

She wondered if Bruce was equally good at massage. The crick in her neck was his fault.
