So this is sort of an experiment for me. I've tried drabbles before, but never all that seriously. I asked my brother to write a bunch of single word prompts for me (he's great that way) and, predictably, the first word on his list was "gun."

And so we have this.

I would apologize for the length, but I'm kind of operating with the "less is more" adage in mind. Besides, nothing beats a good drabble, right?


"You aren't afraid?" The man with the gun shifted his position.

His eyes flickered from Snart to the surrounding area.

Snart kept his hands in the air where the man could see them. No point in further upsetting an already unhinged madman.

Especially one wielding a gun.

Because Snart could be cocky, yes, but he didn't harbor a death wish.

"You aren't something special," Snart said. "I've been held at gunpoint before."

And then Sara struck.

He'd seen her in action a million times before.

That didn't make it any less incredible.

He lowered his hands to his sides.

"Besides," he added, "I've got her on my side."

And she was a force to be reckoned with.


I'd love to hear thoughts/prompts/criticisms. Anything you guys can throw at me really!

And I do hope that, despite the length, you find these worth your time.

Thank you for reading!
