📚 Short Stories From The Immortal Quill – Issue #52
OH STOP THE SPARKLING PRESSES, THE STARDUST ROYALTY HAS ARRIVED.
Tinkabella, Queen of Glitter, Drama, and Accidental Heroism, is once again hijacking story hour at The Immortal Quill… and no one is safe from the sprinkle storm.“Starfall & Sass: The Cosmic Truth According to Tink”
(A tale of twinkle, tantrums, and totally unverified fae research.)
It was supposed to be a calm, stargazy kind of day.
The crew was lounging in their cozy workspaces, sipping enchanted chamomile, and prepping for a mellow afternoon tale. You know, something sweet. Maybe a lost lover beneath the moon. Maybe an ancient poem carved into moonstone. Maybe -
CRASH.
The doors burst open like a Broadway finale and in came Tinkabella, wings glowing, latte in hand, and an energy that screamed “I didn’t come here to make friends.”
She marched right up to the hearth stage and slapped down what looked like a glitter-covered scroll of very suspect research.
Tink: “I’ve discovered a lie. A conspiracy, actually. About stars. Wishing. And me.”
Goldi (already sipping dramatically): “Oh no. Here she goes again.”
Tink: “You know that ‘wish upon a star’ nonsense? That cute little myth you all love?”
Rapunzel: “Don’t you dare -”
Tink (ignoring): “LIES. ALL LIES. They say it’s a meteor, a comet, a chunk of something flaming from the sky. Pfft. How DARE they.”
Snow: “I mean… technically -”
Tink: “NOPE. SHHH. Because it’s not dead star chunks or whatever - they're seeing me.”
Red: “...You?”
Tink (with deadly sparkle-seriousness): “YES. ME. I am the falling star. I am the stardust. I am the wish-delivering, sparkle-hurling, midnight sky diva flinging hope across the heavens!”
Goldi: “Girl. You are literally five feet tall.”
Tink: “I am Five - Six! That's five MILES of FABULOUS. Thank you.”
She stood on a stool, wings fluttering in pure main-character energy.
Tink: “People say I’m just throwing fairy dust around? Excuse me. I do not sprinkle ‘fairy dust.’ No, darling. I rain down STAR. DUST.”
Rapunzel: “Wait, so… you’ve been flinging hope and dreams at humanity for centuries?”
Tink: “Exactly. You’re welcome. That time you wished for your crush to notice you in 8th grade? That was me. That parking spot last week? Me. That limited edition spellbook that went on sale for 90% off? ME.”
Snow: “Okay but who asked you to -”
Tink (dramatically raising her arms):
“I AM TINKABELLA. FAE OF THE STARS.
AND WHEN THE SKY FALLS, I RISE.
REMEMBER THIS LEGEND, FOOLS.
WHEN YOU SEE A FALLING STAR… MAKE A WISH.
BECAUSE THAT’S ME.
YEETING BLESSINGS FROM THE STRATOSPHERE.”
mic drop
She spun on her heel (sparkly boots, of course) and stormed out with one last shout:
“YOU’RE. WELCOME.”
Silence.
Goldi (smirking): “Should we tell her that was definitely a plane?”
Red: “Let her have this one. She’s got good branding.”
Snow: “Honestly, if I had that much glitter, I’d claim the cosmos too.”
Rapunzel (scribbling notes): “I’m putting her quote on a pillow. ‘Yeeting blessings from the stratosphere.’”
And as they returned to their workday, fairy glitter still gently settling on their desks and notebooks, they all knew one thing:
Tink may not be the only main character...
but she sure as star-dust isn’t gonna let anyone forget she thinks she is.
