Yay for day 1! I got a drabble and an icon for the month, for Sense8

Capheus Drabble
Title: Changes
Rating: T for an 'F-bomb' and references to violence.
Words: 100



“Van Damme always comes back…”

It’s what Capheus promised them: His friend Jela. Amondi. Even Amondi’s war-lord father.

A goddamn warlord: Who was he, working with a war-lord, no matter how precious the man’s child?

His mother….

‘You’re my life,’ he’d told her.

But every day they became more of his life - their needs as pressing as the needs of anyone else.

“Fucking Van Damme….fucking Van Damme…”

The bodies of the gang members he’d killed... that they’d killed together covered a warehouse floor.

He’s losing his grip on himself.

If he lets go completely … who will he be?

Exactly! It was really great timing for me that I happened to have finished a re-watch of Sense8 right before August Rush. It's fresh in my mind, so I really feel like I can come up with some good drabbles and a nice, big boost for my 2016 word count. :)

These are great, and sounds like you're rolling! ;-)

Yay! I'm so glad you're finding inspiration in a fandom other than the ones you thought you might! ;-)

I used a texture from [livejournal.com profile] deny1984 but I couldn't tell you what pack. Here's a link (http://i.imgur.com/GE906POl.png), if you're so inclined.
