The Fates


Who am I?

Do I exist without my sisters?

Millions tune in to watch our family every Sunday night.  Don’t touch that dial. Tune into “The Fates.” 

This week

New York fashion week. 

Watch Clotho establish her new clothing line. Thread of life…everyone lines up.

Watch Lachesis struggle with her new Lifestyle App.  The allotter is unable to meet her allotted deadline.

And me

I’ll be there.  I’m walking down the runway with my sister.

I’ll be there.  I’m sitting at the kitchen table working on my sister’s app.

But who am I?

Do I exist without my sisters?

Spoiler alert

I do exist and I’m working on my spinoff.
