[Short] A Day in the Life Of...

The DJB is at its best when we are writing about epic space opera battles and dramatic intrigue with laser swords and ship battles. However, much like the GJW, we often need a much needed break from the ferocity by having a change of pace. So, what is your character doing? Are they stopping at their favorite diner for omelettes? Or are they binging on their favorite space opera instead?

This is a short (200 words max) fiction prompt. Grading will be based on the Voice Fiction rubric found here: Rubric

Magik keeps himself pretty well occupied, for the most part, time to time. When he's not engaging in underground activities, he like to relax in a seculded place, he calls home. Far from the city and society. Home is where the heart is, and he keeps the mind at rest. The gettaway he calls home, is where he spends most of his free time. He gets most of his rest by day, pondering deep dark thoughts at night. Sheltered from sunlight, hidden in society. With an entrance to the city not far away, he longs for the shadows.

Magik prefers Winters over Summers, it is the cold air at Winter, when he is most comfortable. It is the long nights and short days, that he enjoys the most. Accompanied by his women, is when he is mist relaxed. She eases his mind and sooths his body. Days go by, business takes it's toll , but it is at night when he plays.
