Prompt 213-Worst Feeling
What is the worst emotion a human being can feel? [So uh, I could have sworn I posted this last night, but apparently I never actually hit "publish" and only saved the draft before falling asleep on the couch. A thousand apologies for that!] “I need to see Koenma,” Mika said when she awoke. “Right … Continue reading Prompt 213-Worst Feeling
Prompt 212-Support
Describe a way a friend supported you when you needed it. Lucy replaced the receiver on the base of the phone.

Prompt 206-Odd Job
Write about the weirdest job you ever had. Fiona was used to strange requests in her line of work. Odd jobs were her specialty.

Prompt 205-Admirable Trait

What Would Felicity Phillips Do?
Hello friends! Sunday is here once again. Didn't we just do this last week? Ah, but I suppose that's how "time" works after all.
