Title: Lullaby
Author: Artemis Rain
Fandom: Original Fiction
Prompt: Pitch
Warning: May contain traces of Purple Prose. And, um… does “weirdness” count as a warning?
Rating: K

Summary: Crossing the threshold between the waking world and sleep.

A/N: I must admit, this prompt gave me a lot of trouble. There was simply too much I could do with it; my muse couldn’t nail anything down. So finally I decided to forget fandom, and just do a bit of free association, writing a story based on the imagery the word brought to my mind. I’m not exactly sure how it happened, but, well, this is what I came up with.

A/N 2: The book mentioned is Moon Tiger, by Phyllis Root and illustrated by Ed Young.

The lullaby is from the song “Morphée” by Moxy Früvous.
Roughly translated, it means:

“Safe in the arms of Morpheus, I reign,
Nemo in exile,
Over my fragile dreams.”
