lonetreadNaNo halfway point has been reached. Day 15 word count: 122, nine in more notes for the QL transfic, and the rest for this one for writing_game, which I've trimmed down to 100 words.

A Thousand Lies (And a Good Disguise)

Sam was silent, trying not to let his confusion show on his face.
“So, you’ll do it, won’t you? We have a deal?”
Sam opened his mouth to say something, anything, when Al appeared, smothering a yawn but wide-eyed with shock. “Sam! You’re not gonna believe this!”
Oh, boy.
