Ginzuishou's Lullaby

 

Hush, my darlings--

hush, my children, little ones

Quiet, and (sleep), and

Everything will be taken care of.

Don't worry.

Hush (there's nothing you can do).

Step by step, meticulously

(It's all laid out, you see?)

Each step (ssshh) planned,

each death, each birth,

Each failing, each descision.

Hush, little ones...

those of you destined to oppose me

(sleep) there is nothing you can alter--

So only (close your eyes) and if not alright--

Everything will come about.

If (one by one, you won't wake up again).

Husshhh....

Those chosen by me...

live on, and know how fortunate you are

(smile) as you sleep (shhh), and

your destiny is planned throughout

into the far reaches of future milleniums.

(and forever)

Sleep.

You cannot oppose me, you would not...

such minds as yours cannot see me, do not understand.

(Hush)

Only sleep, my children (my puppets)

Sleep-- next morning, I'll wake you

If I choose.

 


You don't even want to know what kind of a mood I was in. Post-fanfic-depression-and-feeling-of-failure syndrome is a powerful thing.
Upset? Just a little.
