Henry 099

[forevermorningstar]

I’ve been accused of having a death wish but I think it’s life that I wish for, terribly, shamelessly, on any terms whatsoever.

The Faithful Heart

100-word drabble Henry realizes the source of his immortality never came from the gun that killed him, but an object that always, miraculously, finds its way back to him.

In his laboratory, Henry froze, confronted with an idea that had been lingering in the back of his mind for some time now. Slowly, he sat down, putting thoughts together in his head.

“Abraham,” he called up the stairs, voice steady.

On the desk in front of Henry lay his golden pocket-watch, looking very innocent. “This is my immortality.” He gestured to the object. “It’s always been this. I lose all my other clothes—this remains behind, and it’s always ticking.”

Abe stared at it in horror. “…exactly how many times have you dropped that thing, Pops?” he said weakly.

Henry has 235 years behind him, and many more to come.  The Klondike Gold Rush, the Paris Modernist era, the USA Anti-War movement—Henry’s seen it all, but we’ve only heard a fraction of the tales he has to tell!  Where has he been, what has he done, and where will he go in the future?  In this ficathon, we tell Henry’s stories before the series, and those yet to come!

procrastination level: Forever AU where every time Henry and Adam die, the body of water they reawaken in is the one closest to where they originally died.

Little-known downsides of immortality:

Tearing your favourite article of clothing and discovering that it’s irreplaceable because the technique of its manufacture has been lost

Realising you’ve thought of the perfect comeback to someone who’s been dead for three hundred years

Not being able to eat your favourite dish anymore because the source of some critical ingredient has gone extinct

Having strong opinions about sports that are no longer played

Getting a song from the 13th Century stuck in your head and being unable to get it out because you don’t remember how it ends and you’re the only person on Earth who knows it

Having that perfect pun you’ve been waiting forever for a chance to use stop working due to linguistic drift

Note: When I create a YouTube playlist, it will always have seven videos to start off with. But more songs will certainly be added over time :)

My other YouTube playlists:

Tolkien:

Songs for Bilbo Baggins Songs for The Company (of Thorin Oakenshield)

You, a historian, find something odd in your records. The same face, accompanied with variations of the same name, keeps emerging in paintings, drawings, woodcarvings and documents, from a span of several centuries. It looks suspiciously like your assistant.

Me: *watching the ABC ads for their new shows* It seems like ABC finally got their act together. I guess they know what a good show is after all.

Dad: *reading book* I still don’t have sympathy for them.

I had a dream that I saw a commercial for Forever season 2 on tv and everyone was excited. The commercial started with a narrator voiceover talking about something that sounded suspiciously familiar, and then the camera shots and actors showed up and I began to realize what it was and just sort of gaped at the tv in amazement and online tHE ENTIRE FANDOM had gone nuclear and I’m just remembering this dream now and it makes me sad

I had a dream that Henry ran into another version of himself, only he was a way younger new baby immortal, and saw him die and they were both still freaked out about having to tell each other about their problems.
