Prompt 250-Parrot
If you had a pet parrot, what would you teach it to say? “Hey Leo, there’s something that’s been bugging me since we met.” Kita hung by her knees from the rigging above him, her orange-red hair swaying in the breeze like a fiery pennant. She did love to climb. The Captain grinned. She was … Continue reading Prompt 250-Parrot
Prompt 249-Bathroom
Name three things you have in your bathroom right now. Kali was strange in many ways, the least of which was her friendship with Gwen.
