‘Do not ask your children to strive’ by William Martin

Text ID:

Do not ask your children
to strive for extraordinary lives.
Such striving may seem admirable,
but it is the way of foolishness.
Help them instead to find the wonder
and the marvel of an ordinary life.
Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears.
Show them how to cry
when pets and people die.
Show them the infinite pleasure
in the touch of a hand.
And make the ordinary come alive for them.
The extraordinary will take care of itself.

Preview for new TAZ fic I’m obsessing over:

“Taako. Hey, Taako? Hey, so listen, I want you to turn me into a cat.”

“Wha… the hell, what time is it?”

“It’s morning,” Lucretia says promptly, unblinking. “And I only now realized you can just turn me into a cat. Y'know. Magic.”

“Magic. Yeah,” Taako mutters, looking blearily at her. There’s a long moment where he just breathes out slow, rubbing sleep from his eyes. “We talking something cool? Like big cool jaguar that can eat your face?”

“Nope. Small kitty cat.”

Characters: Lucretia, Taako
Additional Tags: The Stolen Century Parts 1-7, Miscommunication, Trust Issues, Dark Comedy, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Trauma, Team Bonding, Canon Compliant, Happy Ending, Crack Treated Seriously, they’re all idiots your honor, In this house we love and support Lucretia, IPRE Crew | Starblaster Crew as Family, Post-Apocalypse, found family on speedrun, Sleepovers

Summary:

First Cycle. As far as they know, they’re the only ones left. Perhaps it was inevitable that they’d consider… repopulation. Lucretia writes up a weekly schedule to try and address that. Absolutely no one is happy with this.

Chapter 9: Taako’s Night (No)
(in which Taako and Lucretia fight it out in the kitchen in the middle of the night and definitely don’t have anything in common or are stressed about anything)

Something else I absolutely love is My Fair Lady with a Great Mouse Detective twist. My dream is to one day animate this or at least make a little zine inspired by the film. 🐀🐁

Your writing won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but there are people out there who genuinely will love it. Focus on writing a story that excites and that you’re proud of, and the right audience will come along.
