I hope all these drabbles really are stretching my fic-writing muscles, because I've signed up for the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
comica_obscura challenge. Scary stuff.
On the other hand, here's a non-scary drabble forx_men100.
Challenge: Breaking Up
Character: It's a surprise
Words: 100
The worst part of my job had to be all the break-ups. Being a ruthless assassin on a team of ruthless assassins was never going to be easy, but I really wasn’t prepared for all the physical and emotional stress that came with the paycheque.
I mean, this never happened when I worked alone. Was I stronger, then? Now it never ended. The boss always helped me pull myself back together, of course. I wasn’t much use to him as a wreck.
I always knew I was fragile, but, you know, sometimes a heart of glass isn’t just a metaphor.
(did you guess? Prism of the Marauders.)
