Sneakily, creepily crawling on bended shank and hairy flank come Dark & Wild.
“Ere, ‘Arry. Look … water. Drink?”
“Get away you fool. ‘Tis poisoned. ‘Tis the foul fruit of man and doth smack of chlorine.”
“But it looks nice. Pretty!”
“Aye, ’twas always the way of man to prettify poison. But yon light glittering ‘cross the surface of yon water is false ‘magination.”
“What about that pizza then, ‘Arry? ‘Ave it?”
“Same rules as always. If ’tis flat on table, ’tis forbidden, for they will hunt us down … Hsst, hide! Camera!!”
And so Dark & Wild slink away. Silent now. Unseen.

So fun to read. 🙂 I love characters that aren’t “explained” and we just get to experience them. Well done!

Hey, thanks so much for popping over – that means a lot to me. 🙂
Yeah, a lot of my characters are not explained. I think it makes it more true to life I guess. Thanks for reading and enjoying.

I love it! I’m so glad you “jumped in” 🙂 There is no time limit on any of the prompts — I’d love to see all you choose to write from — there are SO many to choose from ❤ I hope to start back up now that I'm dusting off my blog 🙂 Thank you for joining us as we've enjoyed weaving our 100 word stories for quite a while!

That pool looked so inviting that I couldn’t resist jumping in. 🙂
Hope you’re safe.
