Round 3 - Return of the Meme

General Rules

Personal attacks and any kind of abusive trolling, hate speech, or bullying are obviously forbidden. Anon comments violating this rule will be deleted, signed in members will be banned.
If your comment is deleted/screened/frozen and you don't know why, please email the mod at hhanonmeme@gmail.com. (If you notice it happening to your comments and you know they're safe, a quick email for the mod to come and unscreen them would be helpful also).
Prompt posts will close to new prompts at 3,000 comments.

Prompting Rules

One prompt per comment.
Please follow the correct format (see below).
Include trigger warnings in the subject line. Use your discretion and please be considerate.
If your prompt is missing something, such as a subject or a warning, repost it in it’s entirety. It is not enough to reply to your own comment with the missing information. The mod will delete the previous duplicate comment.
Multiple fills of the same prompt by different author!anons are allowed.
If for any reason you start a fill but feel you can't finish the WIP you've created, and if you're happy to let someone finish it for you, put it up for HH Meme Fostering and Adoption.
Prompts for projects other than Horrible Histories (ie. Spy, Gavin and Stacy, Rev, St. Trinian's, the O2 adverts etc., and RPF involving actors from those projects should be posted at the What? They've acted in other things?! post.

Format of Prompts

Put [RPF] before RPF prompts.
For crossover prompts: "[Crossover], HH Character(s)/Other Character(s), [Fandom]"
Anyone, everyone, no one? Use "Other."
Put [GEN] before GEN prompts, just so you don't get unwanted shipping.
Use appropriate warnings. I'm trusting you all to know what that means.
Don't embed any photos, videos or other media.
Copy and paste links in full; anon comments with active coded links are marked as spam and the mod doesn't switch accounts often enough - it may be a few days before those screened comments are de-screened (see: emailing the mod a heads up if it happens).

Archiving Prompts and Fills

To make the archiving job easier, please drop a link to your fill/unprompted fic here at the fills post.
Nothing here you fancy filling? Take a look at the unfilled prompts archived here or at Round 1 or Round 2.

That's nearly the end of the storia, for onto the scene comes our much loved meme: HAIL TO THE QUEEN OF PROMPTIA.

“It’ll get better,” his mother says, patting his arm and trying to be supportive as he stares out at nothing, “soon he’ll be only a faintly dull ache, then a fond memory, then nothing at all.”

“It’ll be alright,” his sister soothes, leaving tea on his desk as he shuffles his papers and doesn’t see a single word, “you’ll get over him in the end. Marry, have kids, maybe name one after him but move on with your life.”

“It’ll be fine,” his father grunts, rubbing at an old war wound when he comes across him standing in the garden and listening to the dying rustle of the leaves, “I’ve lost friends before now, you know. You just have to keep living, keep moving, honour them when you can but forget them otherwise.”

It…

It-

It doesn’t get better.

And it’ll never be alright.

And it won’t be fine.

Because he’s lost the most important thing to him, the most important thing in the world, and how can anything be fine when the only thing you have left of the love of your life is a field of poppies as red as his blood as he sprawled in the mud and choked and thrashed and died?

How?

…How?

OW MY HEART.

This hurts so well and oh GOD I want to cry but in a good way *sniffles*

This is terribly sad, near made me cry.

It's so short but...
WAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
