It's wonderful to have friends...

I was contemplating whether joining Mini_nanowrimo would be a good idea, you know, in a good-habit-cultivating-way. To be poked, to write. And stuff. And then [livejournal.com profile] sparklebutch helpfully poked, and [livejournal.com profile] holde_maid said "Fire", and Cali wrote a handful of words and felt better.
Which I'm posting before I get to feel silly...and forget to cultivate good habits. Maybe I could do 100 words a day *muses*.

105 words of random Highlander (like you couldn't guess:)):

He was tired, cold and feeling grumpy. The rain was split-splattering down, and the damp seemed to creep into every nook and cranny. The wind howled in the darkness.
A dark outline with a raised sword silhouetted against the background of dimly-lit alleyway was just an added annoyance.
That was certainly NOT a good time for a challenge. Those youngsters, they called it the Game, and still wanted to play in such conditions? Dumb gits.
Definitely a smart move to call for a time out. After all, he had a dinner, a book and a fire waiting. "Pause Game," he thought, and squeezed the trigger.

For some reason I'm really, REALLY loving this.

Indeed. Heee. *g*
So, there will be more of this? *hopeful*

Heh, I can definitely see that as Methosian thinking - and now I see you never actually say who it is!

Good capturing of the tediousness and conflict of immortal existence in few words. Good work.

Heehee...pause indeed. And the perfect icon to go with

Good stuff! I like it. :) Maybe Methos' motto for those stupid kids should be "Live. Grow smarter. Learn to walk away."

*grin*

Glad you like the icon. It's one of my own. *grin* Something about Mr. Innocent "woobie face" made that caption pop into my head. Yeah, I'm sick and twisted.

Need any more promts? How about the phrase "exponential growth"?
