“There aren’t #centaurs in this #country,” he scoffs. “It’s too far north.” Riley is tired of arguing with him. She shakes her head when she finds his body trampled, but really, he could have listened for once. She told him about the #danger. #vssmagic #bravewrite #vss365

A New Pet
The clock strikes #midnight and the room is plunged into #dangerous darkness. Something begins to #crawl toward her. She #launches the net at it and ties it up neatly. “I’d like you to eat some other people instead.” #366FF #vss365 #whistpr #flexvss
Occupational Hazards
I #jump on the #late #ferry and see a #new ferryman. “Where’s Mort?” I ask. “Fell overboard and his #essence dissolved,” says the #bony figure without a trace of #compassion. The commute to the underworld is like that sometimes, I think, squinting against the #salt spray.

Teenagers in this galaxy, am I right?
“You used the #filter, right?” Zax asks before taking a sip. “Duh, of course, Dad.” “It #unites with the toxic #element in this planet’s water so we don’t #lose our ability to absorb oxygen and die.” With a heavy sigh, Sarq takes back the cup. ##vss365 #whistpr #vssmagic #flexvss
Well, I Did Ask Nicely
“What’s that #puddle on the floor? Ketchup? #Jam?” “Steve. He asked me out again. I managed to #stave off the rage and asked him nicely to #vacate the premises, but then he tried to #kiss me.” “Goddamn it, Steve. I’ll get the mop.” #whistpr #flexvss #bravewrite #vss365 #366FF
Don’t Take Your Onion Farmers For Granted
“Welcome to the Obscure History #Club meeting. Today Margo presents on the #Onion #Insurrection of 1526.” “Thank you, Pete. This is a real-life #fable of underseasoned stew, #defiant farmers, and #optimistic palace cooking staff unfamiliar with how to identify poisonous roots.”

One Man’s Monster
War of the Roses, With Velociraptors
“What’s #vexing you, Vidalia Rose?” “This #vendetta. I can’t remember how it started and the #vandalism…a #kangaroo #stuck in the bathroom? The blind adherence to #tradition has gone off the rails.” “After they let loose that #velociraptor, dear? How quickly we forget.”

Kinder, Gentler Spellbook
Her #mentor held out the spellbook. “But it’s got to be #vellum! The animal skins are specially prepared to hold in the #magical energy.” “I don’t care how it’s always been #done. I’m a vegetarian witch.” #bravewrite #vss365 #366FF #flexvss
The Lesson
I skid to the #far #edge of the pond. “Learning to #ice skate might not have been the best #resolution for me” I say, falling onto my ass yet again. “No, no, you’re doing great,” she says, glancing up at the #vultures circling. In the distance, #wolves howl.
