A/N: Originally written for [livejournal.com profile] open_on_sunday challenge 360 - Circle.

Theirs was a forbidden love. They were opposites in every way that counted, but drawn to each other in every way that mattered. Where she was verbose he was eloquently taciturn. She was evil—chaotically neutral at best. He had been cradled in the very bosom of the earthly force of good. Their eyes met glassily across the tea table, their plates untouched. The pot remained unpoured, captivated as they were. Her porcelain skin—his porcine snout. But it could never be. He was plush; she was bisque. It would cause a scandal in their circle, and besides, they lacked independent mobility.

Oh! Nifty! A prose poem! Their differences are lovely echoes of themselves, bouncing back to us. Great job!

Brilliant.

Especially loved this line:
It would cause a scandal in their circle, and besides, they lacked independent mobility.
