Exactly 1500 words. Angst galore. Apologies if Al is OOC; I tried my best.
( A Memory of the Smell of Smoke )
This took ten days to get started, one night to write. *sigh* Written last night for writing_game week #55...
( Just (100 words) )Thewriting_game bug bit again. Never can predict my muses. Day 9 word count so far: 131. The 125-word version of this is over at the Week 52 w_g board; here's the trimmed-to-drabble-size, 100-word version. Set in the same universe as, and at some point after, "One for the Angels", but they're not really otherwise related. (And the monster "word" with seven hyphens has been cut, because that just felt like cheating. My writing integrity remains more or less intact.)
Day 8 word count: 725. This blows my record-so-far, Day 6's work on the Jack story, out of the water. I am ecstatic. (ETA: Disclaimer: QL/Cold Case. This scene is almost entirely taken from CC. Because CC rocks like that.)
