FB3X Drabble Cascade #113 - word of the week is 'taboo' (a chance to test and share your writing skills)

Fantasy Boys XXX Drabble Cascade


Welcome to FB3X Drabble Cascade #113 - This week's word of the week is 'taboo'.

Suitable for all.
The Way A Cascade Works

it's really very simple, be inspired by our word of the week and just write :).

To see this week's entries check out the list at the bottom of this post. We put it behind a cut so it doesn't clog up your scrolling.

A drabble is a work of 100 words exactly. Flash fiction is a work of up to 500 words. Both may be submitted to the cascade. So What Can You Write? The simple answer is - anything! Our work here on FB3X will be erotically themed. but feel free to take the inspiration any way you want to, fiction, fanfiction, non-fiction, meta, since variety is the spice of life!

To those struck by inspiration (and no you don't have to be a professional writer to join in, anyone can embrace their inner author):
  • Below you will find a chance to join in the cascade in the form of a linked list
    • Write a drabble/flash fiction inspired by the word of the week.
    • Post the fiction to your own blog, social media, or website 
    • Then insert a link into the linked list to that drabble/flash fiction for everyone to find (A hint of the genre of your drabble/flash fiction in the title of your post would be appreciated.), e.g. A Little Bit of Fun (PG, Science Fiction)
    • To encourage your friends to join in and hence cascade the fun, you can also add the list into your own post by copying the code.
  • OR you can just write us something in the comments :)
For folks who enjoy reading drabbles/flash fiction: you can then peruse the cascade to your heart's content :).

AND NOW - on to the fiction :)

Flight of Fire (Part 21) (PG, m/m, Fantasy)
by Sophie Duncan








Author's Note
I'm trying to do something a little different this year. For those of you who don't know, unless it's a week inspired by a holiday, or memorable occasion, our word of the week is picked by opening up a dictionary to a random location, waving a finger about without looking at the page and pointing it to a word, i.e. it's chance. So, this year, rather than standalone drabbles, I am going to try writing a coherent story, Flight of Fire, in 100 word episodes, each one inspired by the word of the week. I have a vague outline for characters and direction of Flight of Fire, but specifics will be decided by the word of the week.

Taboo - forbidden - but some things can't be resisted.

Benedict stood, frowning - not at Stephan, but into the middle distance. He took Stephan by surprise again when he finally looked his way.

“Don’t leave this room.”

With that, Benedict strode outside, door slamming behind him.

Stephan fidgeted.

Stephan stared at his plate.

Stephan rubbed his nose distractedly.

With a full stomach came energy. With energy came magic. Stephan found himself looking at large double doors to his left. He stood, sorcery rising. The call came, almost anticipated. Stephan crossed the room. The door slid easily aside.

Power and fear rooted Stephan to the spot: he could only stare.

  1. Nooooooo don't go to and open the double doors.
    Well um technically he didn't leave the room. Though he does keep going where he shouldn't, figuratively.

    1. ;P - yeah, I know, it's a bit corny, and yeah, Stephan does keep 'going there' :) Although, it's not all his fault as will become clear.

      I know what next week's word is, and I have no idea how I'm getting it into what has to happen next! o.O
