Is this a writing/drawing challenge for Sapphic September 2024, because I didn't see any, and my brain just waterfalled this all over a page?
It can be if you would like it to be.
No pressure, like, at all.

But if you do, maybe tag your works with Sapphtember so people can discover them?

Cohost Sapphic September 2024 writing prompt: 09 — girls who are haughty

Qara, Jewelled Slaughtrix, World-Trampling Empress, Queen of her Dimension, holds herself with dignity as perfect as she can establish. Teeth clenched, eyes slitted, she struts.

The effect is somewhat spoiled by the fact she's in an unfamiliar place, and immediately trips over somebody's shoes.

This fallen and insubordinate universe offered, last night, the initial delight and insidious treachery of tequila. She is not certain quite what events took place after that, or in what order, or how she ended up wherever she is. She fumbles for the doorhandle, squinting against the malicious sunlight, and very carefully walks along the corridor outside the room, carriage regal.

"I require your planet's barbarous remedies," she announces, sweeping into the kitchen.

Kira, looking bedraggled and still half-asleep, gives her a side-eyed, hungover glare. Acrimony's jacket is draped over the back of a chair, but there's no sign of her; Wolfgang Dangerous's feather boa is draped over the top of a door.

Maskless and apparently clad only in a long tshirt — blazoned FISH FEAR ME and beneath that, THE PARADOXICAL EFFECTS OF MY IMMACULATE SCIENCE ON WOMEN REQUIRE FURTHER STUDY — the Space Crayfish Universal Empress salutes her with a greasy spatula. "Wolfgang's place offers aspirin, coffee, and grilled cheese," she says cheerily.

Qara's stomach objects. She lifts her chin, expressionless. "Sufficient," she declares superciliously.

I have no problem with smutty microfiction *gestures at some of the other examples already rechosted* I just ask that it's properly tagged as such if you'd like me to also rechost it, as I've been doing with a lot of other Sapphtember stuff.

Otherwise, you can choose whatever manner of connection to the original chost you want: rechost, html link, tag only, nothing... Anything goes. (Although in that last case, it would be tricky for me to find and rechost, of course)

It's your microfiction, I'm just providing a modest spark of inspiration.
