Thanks for the tag, @pandoras-comment-box! I don't remember where I started on this session, so I'm just putting the first line of the story, lol.

Rules: "Post the first line(s) you put down on your WIP during your writing session."

"Of all the ways they could’ve died, Claire was both disappointed and upset that she was hit by a truck."

Find Five Lines

Late thanks to @kaylinalexanderbooks for the tag! This is kind of a cheat, since a lot of these need context around them so they're longer than 1 line, lmao. But whatever!

Rules: Find 5 lines that fit the prompts, then change 1 for whoever you tag

A line with movement

Glancing at the clock, she had about 5 minutes before it was time to eat, and it took about 10 to get there from her room. That plus how long it’d take to buy food… she’d have run if it wouldn’t have exerted too much energy. As it was, she moved at a respectable speed-walking pace.

A line with fear

Her breathing turned quick and shallow, and she fought to regulate it. She lost that battle once her opponent had made their appearance.

A funny line

The scream building in Iris’ chest was taking everything in her power to hold back. “Luna. Did you. Attack. The crown. Prince.”

A line with color

“You seem… familiar.” Ah, shit. Was he gonna sue?! Before she could cook up a proper lie, his eyes widened in recognition. “Blueberry.” “Huh?” “You’re the blueberry-haired girl. The little demon from the fountain.” If she wasn’t afraid of getting kicked out of the library or even hanged, she’d have screeched at that. Blueberry?! Her hair was cobalt! Cobalt! Maybe even cornflower in certain lighting! “Fuck you,” was out of her mouth before she had the sense to shut up.

A line you've changed a lot

The naginata had yet to forsake her, and so it would be at her side as she stood before the doors of death.

For you: A line with movement, a line with fear, a funny line, a line with color, and a line you LOVE

OC in fifteen

I was tagged by @oh-no-another-idea here and I'm sure by a few others but I'm so scatterbrained these days that I've lost the posts 😭😭 So thanks to anyone else who has tagged me too!

Rules: Share 15 or fewer lines of dialogue from an OC, ideally lines that capture the character/personality/vibe of the OC. Bonus points for just using the dialogue without other details about the scene, but you're free to include those as well!

My initial thought was to do this for Fay and then I was like naaahhhh that's too predictable but, uh, now I have Fay brainworms, so, yeah. Fay it is! These lines will come from AASOAF 1-3!

“I will admit, I never like it when you appear.” She said with a frown as she peeled an orange, “It’s never for a good reason.”

“Careful now. The devil lurks closely and has sharp ears.” She warned before sitting down. 

“FULL SAIL AND HAUL WIND, YOU BILGE SUCKERS!” I boomed across the decks to the rest of the crew.

“Come kiss me, you fool.” I commanded him.

“Get the fuck away from me.” I hissed.

“And you, come with me. You’ve wasted enough of my time. We’re doing this my way now.” She commanded as she walked past me.

“I survived.”

“You and me. You and me. Youandme, Youandme, Youandmeyouandmeyouandme…”

“I never forget anything…” I licked my lips. “My lord.”

“If I am all that is left no one can hurt me.” She whispered, clutching my tunic tighter. 

“Don’t get cute.”

“I’ll kill the first man to put an oar into this sea.”

I let out a wry laugh. “My gods, you’re really delusional, aren’t you?”

Fay leaned over it and spread her hands eagerly over the map. “Shut your mouth now. The adults are talking.”

“If my pipe goes out, I’ll smoke that tobacco from your innards. Entrails are about the right size for it.”
