Dark Drabblefest: Prompts for Day Two

Theme:
Literally speaking, ahimsa means non-violence. But to me it has much higher, infinitely higher meaning. It means that you may not offend anybody; you may not harbor uncharitable thought, even in connection with those who consider your enemies. To one who follows this doctrine, there are no enemies. A man who believes in the efficacy of this doctrine finds in the ultimate stage, when he is about to reach the goal, the whole world at his feet. If you express your love- Ahimsa-in such a manner that it impresses itself indelibly upon your so called enemy, he must return that love.

This doctrine tells us that we may guard the honor of those under our charge by delivering our own lives into the hands of the man who would commit the sacrilege. And that requires far greater courage than delivering of blows. - M. K. Gandhi (Source)

Tongues:
My beloved speaks Turkish, and Turkish I do not know;
How I wish if her tongue would have been in my mouth. (Source)


Guidelines:
  • Prompts are entirely optional, to use, subvert or ignore as you please.
  • The goal is to write a drabble of at least 100 words in one of the qualifying Remix fandoms. If you end up writing a longer fic, more joy to us all.
  • Your drabble must put a chromatic character at the centre of its narrative.
  • You can share your drabbles in comments to each day's prompts post, as long as you include a fandom and a rating in your subject.
  • You may suggest and/or solicit fandom or character specific prompts in comments, as long as your ratio of prompts to drabbles does not tilt heavily towards the former.
  • If you are trying to qualify for Remix 2010, you will need 7 drabbles in any one fandom. You don't have to do Remix to play here, though.
