Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Congrats!

MM, that's some serious creep factor in that one.
Congrats, Amy!

For Bev, who wanted more of the story:
Exodus
Her backpack rested on the seat beside her, claiming the space from possible interlopers. Unlikely, as the bus had dropped off what seemed to be a horde of itinerant workers chattering away in Spanish in Bakersfield. There were a few passengers left, none who had started as far east as she. At every stop she'd watched the ones who got off, most embraced by smiling families and friends. Not always, though. Some left slump-shouldered and shuffling; the ends of their lines a solitary exodus.
Hers wouldn't be one. She hugged the paper-wrapped cookie jar against her rounded belly, her family.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Thank you, Sail! Nice. I love the formatting. You can write a whole novel this way. Like a scrapbook of snapshots. Lovely.

Because books.
Very nice, Sail!
The "embrace" challenge is now closed.
This week's prompt is "addiction".
I'm standing in for Lee, today. Be glad I didn't give you "porn".

If anyone has time to beta the first few chapters of a mystery, I'd appreciate it.
