Why are my room-mates still awake?  They were drinking at seven and it's almost four.

And I got home in such a good mood.  Mmr.

This is a prime example of my foot in my mouth.  Apparently, what I mistook for drunken behavior was just general silliness and fun and being bored with the way life generally works.  Sorry, room-mates.  I shouldn't have assumed.

Maybe a meme?

These are story starts that have percolated in my head.   The challenge here is for people to choose one, and write a paragraph off it.  Take it any way you want to.  And then after that, another person can write the next, or choose a different start.  Round-Robin sort of thing.  Fanfiction, original, anything.  All of these began with fandom in mind, but I'd love to see what people do with them.

 

1. The war ended silently, in a brick house in Dover.
2. He never wanted to know her.   That seemed almost blasphemous. 
3. Two hundred years ago, they decided that I should be born.
4. When I first met him, he was sitting on a log in a wood, gilded by firelight into a phoenix of a man, blazing with his own death.
