Tiny tiny drabble which I thought I'd share with y'all.

Author: azurepolkadots
Word Count: Uh, not sure. Just 100 words, maybe.
Notes: Written in about five minutes. Had an idea and needed to put it into words.

k, as requested, this is a death!fic. Just a warning.



Billy hated saying goodbye. From when he was very little, when his parents left him alone on his first day at school. To when he had to farewell the Fellowship on the last day of filming Lord of the Rings. He still hated saying goodbye. This time, it was a goodbye that he would have to say forever. Because he wasn't coming back. He was never coming back.

"Goodbye, Dominic," Billy said, kissing the pale colored forehead that was once so full of life. "Merry Christmas."

I'm going to request that you follow a time-honored custom here. Please warn people in the headers when you are writing a death fic. Many people don't like reading these, and it can seriously (sometimes dangerously) upset people who might already be in real life distress and are looking for solace. As a rule, it is best to be kind to potential readers. I will read death fic from time to time, but really require the warning in order to be able to appreciate it properly.

Thank you,

Catherine

You managed to pack alot of emotion into such a small piece of work. Which is very hard to do sometimes. So well done
