FFM 2020 7: The Worst Sunset Ever
No prompt used. Challenge instead. The challenge: Obtain challenges from other FFMers (and challenge others as well) and pick a line of dialogue and two complex characters who work together for a goal. My choices ended up being: "Just toss the fucking underwear in the fire!" (from SarcasticCupcake5), A fighter pilot, crash-landed and separated from … Continue reading FFM 2020 7: The Worst Sunset Ever
FFM 2020 6: There may have been a time
There may have been a time when we were alive.
FFM 2020 5: Migraines During Apocalypse
The absolute worst part of the apocalypse was not the difficulty of finding food, trying to deal with diseases like a cold with limited or no medicine or the lack of reliable human contacts.
FFM 2020 4: A Rhombus Artifact
Kasia yawned. Some others did as well, but Kasia did not bother hiding it. Cuarto fixed a glare on her only to receive a nonchalant cock of an eyebrow in return; Kasia knew that she could not get kicked out of the team just for showing how fed up she was to be standing at a dusty excavation site on an early Friday morning listening to a delusional speech.
FFM 2020 3: Allana’s Secret
If Allana ever told anyone that the whole thing with mysterious marble dude began with one of the marbles she carried with herself dropping when she was tying a knocked out burglar, she would have been laughed at.

While our humanitarian work was a point of pride for Earth, I must admit that the system took a heavy hit when our allies, the Glieseans, lost their home planet in the Gliese 667 system. With a planet and population far bigger than our own, even when the rest of the Inter-Galactic Union (IGU) did their part in taking refugees in, we were stretched thin.
Prose-ject 2020 30: The Journey’s End
At first, my blade-to-blade battle with the ghoul went well. We were evenly matched, with the ghoul having become slightly rusty with no challengers while I had honed myself for months. When it came to magic, I was having more trouble, but the Harmony Blade kept me safe.
Prose-ject 2020 29: A Departing Scout
Jeff was leaving on a scouting round again. He said that he had seen an interesting new building which we might be able to blow up if we got close enough. While it certainly was a provocation to the invaders, with all the known underground sanctuaries already either destroyed or flooded until they were underwater, we were safe. It would definitely send a message: We may hide, but we are not defenseless. You are not welcome here.
