On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Great Write Way, Act Three: Where's the gun?

I don't post there much at all so probably shouldn't have a say but I love this!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Go gun! Choose gun!

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Yeah, I have to go with Gun. That's awesome.

Because books.

Well, that seems sort of like a consensus.

Now we just need to finish off the thread. Everyone, drabble! GO!

I like the gun, too, although my brain went to "Act Three: I'm Shooting the Gun AIFG."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

"Act Three: I'm Shooting the Gun AIFG."

I vote for this one.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Act Three: I'm Shooting the Gun AIFG.

I kind of love that.
