Three Sentence Ficathon 2016!

(Because one didn't seem to have started this year, and I admit to wanting very much to participate in one of these challenges!)
Presenting the Three Sentence Ficathon 2016!

The Steps:
1. Prompt the fandom/pairing/situation of your heart, preferably in the following format: fandom, character/pairing, prompt word/sentence. .
2. Find a prompt by someone else (or heck, your own) that catches your interest.
3. Fill the prompt in no more than three sentences. (NB: This is really more of a guideline
4. Revel in reading the (hopefully large) amounts of fics thereby produced.
5. PROFIT!

It takes a long time before Capable has the chance to relax and breathe and think again; building a new society from the shattered remains of the Citadel and everything Joe left behind hadn’t been easy, even with all of the rest of the former wives and Furiosa to help and the War Boys more than happy just to have someone to tell them what needed to be done.

When things are more settled- food and water and work distributed more evenly to the people so that no one is suffering or straining just to live anymore- she goes out to the edge of the gardens, almost to where the desert sands still creep in and try to encroach on their lives, and looks out on the shifting sand and water marriages far away on the horizon and she remembers.

They’ve all lost a lot just to get to where they are now and she knows, just as the other former wives do, that they cannot forget those who will never see how much things have changed for the better; sitting in the sun, surrounded by the green of a new chance at life, this is her time to remember their sacrifices.

Oh gosh, this is perfect – bittersweet and beautiful, and I love the image of Capable sitting at the edge of the gardens and looking out on the desert. <3
