Not again (Friday Fictioneers)
“Tel, I’m sick of you dragging us into magic doorways. I’ve been to Ice worlds, underground cities, tree palaces. We were even underwater that one time! I’m exhausted.”
“Jina, it’s our destiny.”
“Destiny shmestiny. I’m over it. The uncertainty, the danger, the romance—”
“How can you be over romance?”
“Because we never stay. I’ve fallen in love so many times with princess’s, and dragons, and farm boys. I can’t do it anymore.”
“Tel. We can’t say no. People need us.”
“They can save themselves. I’m taking a holiday.”
“Just one look in the bin. Please?”
“Argh, Alright. Just one.”

Rambles, writing and amusing musings 
I understand Jina’s frustrations, it seems people take advantage of her powers. Besides, all farm boys talk about is tractors – How many variations of a Massey Ferguson can there be?
Thanks James ! Haha oh dear poor farm boys 😉
A superhero with a mood swing! What fun!
Hahaha exactly ! Everyone needs a holiday 😊
Everyone needs a bit of rest and relaxation! 🙂
Agreed Iain. I think my own desires were creeping in there. I want a sleep in hahaha !
A fun read…and only 100 words. Bravo!
Thanks so much Gwen!
…and the rest is history! Nice one.
Here’s mine!
Indeed !
Uh-oh, shouldn’t have done that 🙂
Yeah… into the breach once more
I quite understand Tel’s point of view: falling in love so many times must be exhausting! 😂 Fun story, Laurie!
Right? hahaha… and time consuming too. Then the emotional turmoil of leaving them behind. Time for a break. thanks for reading
Interesting story, Well done.
thanks Bill!
You’re welcome, Laurie.
Dear Laurie,
Garsh, I never thought of fairy tale heroes getting burnout. (I suppose with those dragons… 😉 ) Cute story.
Shalom,
Rochelle
hahaha, right? Need a holiday from all that rescuing. 🙂
We can’t always meet expectations.
Nicely done … Be well … Be Safe
Isadora 😎
Indeed you are right. Best to just go out there and try to do the right thing. And not lose your heart over and over again in the process!
She should have told him ‘tomorrow’ – and then split!
Yesssssss!
Ha ha – loved the dialogue – and the concept. Nicely done, Laurie!

Thanks Susan !
Just another glimpse into the portal… maybe it will be uniquely awesome this timr
Yes I seem to be on quite the portal thread. I must change it up for this week! Thanks Bjorn
Hilarious. I have a feeling this won’t be the last time!
Hahaha me thinks that too!
These two need each other! Think how boring things would be if they went their separate ways. One would never do anything and the other wouldn’t have anyone to share the excitement with.
Aha well that’s a jolly good point!
🙂
Ha ha something tells me the same conversation repeats each and every time now … 😉
Hahaha I would not be surprised !
😀
