The Scarlet Flyer: Science Fiction

The cheat codes were fantastic in this body. She loved them so much, and the things she could do--well! The things she could do made her a little sad that they'd wear the body out so much faster and she'd need to find a new host in ten years instead of the usual thirty. Not that she'd let the host know that, of course. The bodies tended to get upset over little details like that, but they loved being the Scarlet Flyer so much that they said of course, it was worth the symbiont. They thought she was a symbiont! She had to laugh a little at that--all these little host creatures and their optimistic, Terra-centered beliefs.

Inspiration: Phil playing silly Nintendo games.
Story Potential: High.
Notes: Could work as a flash fiction piece, this setting, though I'd need an actual plot here.

Sleeping Beauty/Rapunzel Vampires

Feeling a strange urge to write a Sleeping Beauty/Rapunzel-retelling with them as vampires. It's all about the roses and the blood-drinking thorns.

How odd.

Also, must resist urge to write vampire stories--at least "ordinary" vampire stories.
