Was reading a discussion about drabbles and whether they're just scenes (of a whole) or should be a self contained story. I've kinda written both, but there is one that is up there with Athenaeum in terms of quality (imo), and I think it would be less of a story if more words were added. Excuse my moment of remincising, it's just been so long since I've written anything of worth (or of anything), and I am still very proud of this.

His greatest gift will evaporate slowly, leaving puddles that connect in brief flashes of brilliance. Until he forgets how to write.
She'd vowed that she wouldn't go through it a second time.
"CJ."
She will stare at him and dismiss it as hallucinations sparked by hearing their victory song. Nine months will have passed since he last knew her name.

She'll have no voice, only a nod, and he'll grab her hand.
"Dance with me, CJ."
