“Why the bad #mood?”
“It’s those infernal machines again. They’re stuck on the #delete #cycle and zapping everyone who enters the #parlor. I’m just #grateful no one I like has stopped by.”
“Did the fellow with the newspaper subscription #renewal–?”
“Zapped.”

“You’d better #hurry or you’ll be late for work.”
“I called in sick. That #crude construction wasn’t nearly #squirrel-proof. They’re #cerebral animals. #Sneaky. Ate all the birdseed again. In my backyard #sanctuary! The #glitter just makes the trap pretty.”
“Oh boy.”

“What is this awful sound? I thought you said a string #quartet was playing tonight.”
“I never said string. Triangle, tuba, kazoo, accordion. 1-2-3-4. Quartet.”
“What did I do to deserve this #torment?”

“Please stop this #torment,” #Jasper begged his captors. “I shouldn’t have wrapped my gum in a page from the holy #book. Just tell me the punishment in #store!” “All right, to the #gallows then.” “Wait! I want the torment back!” #vssdaily #bravewrite #flexvss #vss365 #vssmagic
The endless #rain beat a steady #tattoo of #angst into the #pit of her stomach as she #wandered the house, trying to identify the strange cry. She heard a thump from the attic, but it was a #decoy. The real danger was behind her.

“You know, #sinistrality is my #kink,” she whispered in his ear. “There’s a place in the woods we could #wander to.” “I’ll try anything once,” he replied, downing his scotch. She smiled. It was so #easy to find willing sacrifices. No one had had a decent vocabulary in decades.
Clearing out his grandmother’s house was exhausting work. Simon sat down with her old wooden jewelry box. In it was a brooch he’d never seen her wear, a golden snake #coiled around eggs of #precious stones. He peered closely as one began to crack. #whistpr #vssdaily
“My house or yours to work on the class project?” “My #preference is yours. There’s an #eclipse tonight. #Father always gets rather #gruff around that time.” “Oh, I forgot! What #creature does he turn into again?” #366FF #vss365 #flexvss #bravewrite #vssmagic
She could just make out the massive #footprint in the #darkness. There were no #knights left. Only her. She swallowed down #fear and #manic laughter, wiped her sweaty palm on her dress to get a better grip on the ax, and grimly plodded on toward #justice.

The princess leaned out the open window. The knight expected to see #fear dissolving into joy at his appearance, but she looked unimpressed. “You’re a day late and a #dollar short, buddy,” she said. “I rescued myself yesterday.” #366FF #vssmagic #vss365 #brieflywrite
