  • Castor and Pollux, thrown high into the night sphere – hanging around with nothing to do
  • Talented at acquiring more talents – if not with innate abilities then through their trading and dubious dealing
  • Maybe not kings but guardians of the way – for sure, their devious scheming “clever” ways
  • Twins yet not the same – opposites: this one’s black, the other’s white; this one’s destined to die, the other to remain ever in the sky
  • Subject ever to the mercurial Mercury – now you see me, now you don’t
  • Softly muttering – loquaciously

    That was a most interesting take on the prompt! Geminis often have two sides to them… 😉
