Disney Peter Pan: Straight on Till Morning

Sugar Perez Alcain

'Ah, so many of us look for adventure and wind up as slaves, one way or another,' the pirate said philosophically. 'When you're young, you think the world will make room for who you are and what you want... and then you find the world of adults is even more limiting than the world of children. With no room for adventure, much less yer own thoughts.'

'Or he'll say it's the croc- but between you and me, I think it's just the sound of time passing that puts the fear of the devil into him. I think he knows somewhere in that musty head of his that his old companion is long gone.'

All her life she had looked for fairies in more mundane places, experiencing a rush of hope and warmth whenever a scene even palely imitated the one before her now. Candles at Christmas, fireflies in the park, flickering lamps and tea houses. The sparkling leaded glass windows of a sweet shop on winter afternoons when dusk came at four.
