Inauspicious

Orange-y red streaks, lines and spots breaking through a pale background. It sort of resembles mountains or maybe a canyon, but it's not specifically either of these.

    Summary

    As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

    --His clothing was expensive and stylish;
    --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
    --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
    --He looked angry;
    --He was wearing sunglasses.

    What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

    Summary

    Suddenly, they stood in a pool of light. Orpheus looked at Eurydice, who was smiling even more brightly than the sunlight that gently tumbled down her shoulders.

    “Sunlight,” she said, breathless. “How? How can you call the sunlight down here?”

    The melody trailed off, and the light and warmth faded. “I don’t know,” Orpheus said. “Maybe when the Lady came to the underworld, she brought the sunlight here, too.”

    “And when she up and left,” Hermes said, staring grimly at them both, “it left along with her.”
