Ficlet ideas that have amused syntaxofthings and I

[untonuggan]

1. Angsty Poetry or angsty folk music, written in the style of say a high school or college student consumed with their suffering, on the topic of the suffering they endure because their roommate does not help with chores. Possibly this artwork might be scribbled on post-its and left throughout their apartment or dorm.
2. I just found out that there is a feral cat colony that lives in the ruins of the Theatre of Pompey, where Julius Caesar was murdered. This leads me to wonder...what if the cats had a role in his downfall? What if Caesar's rise to power was because of a deal with cats? What if he betrayed them? What if he made a deal with cat deities in Egypt and then something something Cleopatra? IDK, this needs fleshing out, I just feel that there is so much potential here and clearly the cats are still marking the place of his death with their scent and ownership as a warning to those who welsh on a deal with felines. Ahem.
