Phorusrhacos, commonly known as 'terror bird' due to their size and carnivorous diet, was a large flightless bird inhabiting Argentina during the Miocene (20-13 million years ago).

FLIGHTLESS - DRABBLE

pavlovs-nikola: Any drabbles based on flightless? Miss my birdie boi

A/N: Have a soft little itty bitty ficlet. For those of you who are new: Hi, I'm Hope! This is a little drabble based upon one of my more niche fics, Flightless. In this AU, everyone has wings - some are more of a burden than others.

Hopefulness.

He's not ready to call it joy. Contentment, even, might be too far from the periphery; too presumptive. It implies a peace Kylo Ren hasn't ever faced. Not made for him, in this lifetime.

But there's colour, now.

Crimson reds and glimmering golds and an azure that stretches out to kiss him, in the nights that used to be endless. Your feathers bristle at his cheeks as you sigh yourself awake, and he can't help but cup his calloused hand under your chin - tilt your lips to meet his, to swallow up those hazy ministrations before the day cycle starts.

Your chuckle is still tinted with sleep, and his feathered wings curl over your shoulders, cocooning you both in glossy black. He'll keep you here as long as he can; stretch out these moments of near-peace for as long as he can steal them.

"Trapping me?" you smile, eyes fluttering open. Kylo nuzzles into your neck, nibbling just below your ear to elicit the smallest gasp.

He could live here forever.

"For now."

His breath fans over your skin, and he wonders at the feeling of your feathers on his. Falls to silent worship at the contrast: rainbows of colour, spilling into oil slick and endless night.

Hopefulness. A spark of contrast, drowning out all the dull, dark days before.

It's a very promising start.

I just saw a quote that said “you stopped saying goodnight and I stopped sleeping” and it made me cry. What I wouldn’t give to get one more “goodnight” from you

[tiredsparrow]

Okay. It's done. I've gotten to a point I'm happy with it. And honestly, I probably wouldn't of gotten here without those supporting me here. Last day of pride month, and so here it is. (I'm tempted to make a quick epilogue but we'll seen if I can finish it soon enough-)

Little quick background; this story isn't completely mine. It has pieces of my life and experiences, but much of it is others experiences. The experiences that helped me discover who I am, and the experiences that have brought so many struggles to my fellow aros.

I made this in hopes that one day, we can all find a place where we are happy, and content, and feel like you made it. Because you will get there. One day, you will find the perfect place where you feel just right.

I think I have never posted concepts from @rain-writes-fics Flightless.

It is pleasure to watch Rain develop this new amazing project of theirs. Please keep an eye on it! ❤️

I’m glad nothing has changed. I’m glad that we’re friends. I’m never more excited to talk to anyone than I am to talk to you
