The Drabble Meme

I'll respond to (at least) the first ten people who request a short piece of fiction on a specific subject or character (and if the character isn't real or familiar, give me some description to work with, please!) with a short story of 100 words (or less).

There is no requirement for you to undertake this meme yourself if you don't want to. There is also no guarantee at all of when I will complete the task.

"Fascinating," Arthur grumbled, his beak glistening wetly in the moonlight, "now are you going to eat that other eye? Or do you mind if I have it?"
