Ficlets: Highlander, X-Men

Prompt #1: Author’s choice, author’s choice,
But though I have wept and fasted, wept and prayed,
Though I have seen my head (grown slightly bold) brought in upon a platter,
I am no prophet – here’s no great matter; I have seen the moment of my greatness flicker,
And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat and snicker,
And in short I was afraid. (TS Eliot)

Ficlet #1: (Highlander, Kronos) What do you fear?



Prompt #2: X-Men First Class: Charles Xavier/Logan. He's not Erik, will never be...but eventually, it's become so much better

Ficlet #2: Worn down by time and metaphors
