A Robin's EggA robin’s egg is a fragile thing.
A tiny shell
hiding a delicate life inside its walls.
Such a thin layer separates it
from the harshness of
the outside world.
It needs warmth,
protection,
love.
Or else it will not live.
Poor little egg;
you belong in a nest.
You deserve a chance to grow,
to thrive,
to live.
To hatch and become a robin
who will one day grace us
with your song.

I am not your mother,
and he is not your father;
but we saved you,
picked you up from the grassy bank where you lay
unloved,
unprotected.
It breaks my heart to think that I am the one cradling you
instead of yA Robin's Egg4 years ago in Free Verse

BaD eGg...?Bad Egg.... a term that we all know; and one that some of us fear. But... is the egg itself really bad...? What makes the strange and glitchy pokemon inside so awful...? Aren't all pokemon created equally...?

Or... could it be something more...? What's the reason for the strange pokemon within the confines of the so-called "Bad Egg?"

I....believe I may have found the reason for these... these... things shrouded in mystery....

And it isn't anything that's wrong with the egg.... No, it has to be the fault of the Trainer....

The Dragon EggThe two men walked in the room, immediately followed by their lawyer. They all sat down in front of the table, the lawyer on one side and the two men on the other. The lawyer carefully placed his bag on the table, and took out a bunch of papers. He coughed to get the other two’s attention. “So...are we ready?”

“Yes, I’m ready.” One of the two, a man in his early 20’s, spoke.

The other man, probably in his 40’s, nodded. “Just hurry up and read the testament, I don’t have all day”

“Have patience.” The younger one spoke. “The man’s doing his job, you can’t rush hiThe Dragon Egg4 years ago in Fantasy

Fried Egg MorningIt's a fried egg morning
and the rain bleeds like yolk
past this windowscape of pedestrian indifference.
It's ten past eight
and I'm smoking myself sober,
watching the steam condense.

It's a fried egg morning
across from the Laundromat,
where the spin cycles hypnotise
recovering drunks.
Fat sizzles behind the counter
as the waitress serves up
greasy sausages to some washed-out old punk.

It was a hard night, that's for sure,
catching my kip on the train,
with a newspaper blanket and the stale smell of beer.
stumbling half-blind through the grey dawn
to linoleum and formica
and that slow 'good-morning sugar' atmosphere.

Parasite Egg: Chapter OneRotten Egg, the newest club in the strange town of Tumm City. Only a week into the life of this odd little hangout and it was absolutely bumping with patrons. A masterpiece of a city's seediest enjoyments. Neon lights flashed brightly in the windows, accenting the underground look of the place. It's appeal stretched from punks to goths and Rotten Egg had just the right mix of imagery and music for wide recognition.

Shannon was no punk rocker chick, hell, she wouldn't even go with light goths. Shannon's reasoning behind entering the club was simply to feel hip. She was only 20 years old, but something seemed to nag her mind about being separaParasite Egg: Chapter One3 years ago in Short Stories

Egg in need of parents

The storm was needed, in order for the spring rains to have a good enough start on the seeds and sprouting plantlife. So, the Pegusi have stirred up one mother of a storm. But, there was another reason it was needed...

Recently, there has been attacks on towns all over Equestria, by a very rare, rarely seen dragon breed. It's obvious this beast has fallen into it's greed, and has only been wanting to horde, but still has enough of it's sanity and intelligence left to know how to steal and stay out of sight. And, it's been targeting only gold, gems, and other riches. The only evidence it leaves over is golden scales, and claw marks. By the siEgg in need of parents11 months ago in Profiles

Once,
I cooked an egg,
And upon eating it,
Began thinking,
As eggs often inspired me to do in those days.

I pondered the meaning of life,
And how it might connect to that lazy cat sitting outside my window,
Or the drifting pattern of that piece of dust,
And how it perhaps might have once been good matter for thought,
But has now become a cliché for philosophy.

And progressively my thoughts went to my childhood
As it had been in those days,
And I thought of sleeping,
And playing,
And whining,
And how much today I don't like children.

And then I thought of eggs again.

Humpty Dumpty.

He was an egg.

Or she.

Prussia X-reader. Egg prank"Du bist awesome, Frau." Gilbert said while he smirked and picked you up like you are a doll. "Gil, put me down!" You screamed and tried to hit your friend but he was holding you so, that you couldn't reach him. You both started to laugh and when he placed you on the ground again you hugged him.

Gilbert was your friend for your whole life. Your parents met in the hospital. Gilbert was only 5 minutes older than you were. Gilbert was an albino. A beautiful one, though. He had white hair and a very pale skin. With his red eyes he looked pretty much like a vampire. He was always telling everyone how 'awesome' he was and girls were practically haPrussia X-reader.

Kiss it better ~ PrussiaxReader.Your deadline was tomorrow and if you didn't finish your chapter by tonight you would have one very angry English teacher on your hands. Luckily for you, you had a few good ideas and it was coming out well so far, the only problem being the incessant clicking coming from the other side of your bedroom.

bad EGGBack when Pokémon Gold and Silver versions came out, many players went on the hunt for bugs and glitches. The first glitches to be tried were those known from the first generation, notably the item and pokemon cloning tricks, wild missingno encounters, and pokemons above lvl.100. We had also heard rumors about shinies and the pokerus, but no one really knew what they really were nor if they were even real. It took quite a while before someone could confirm the existance of these 2 things, for they were so rare that even I, in over than 12 years of playing, never encountered them outside of trading with a friend who had pokemons infected bad EGG1 year ago in Short Stories
