Marron Marvel wrote about the word amuse 1 year, 10 months ago
There is nothing that brings joy when one is filled with fury; and yet, despite Potter’s insolence, the corner of Snape’s mouth tugs upward into a faint smile of amusement. Perhaps, he thinks, the boy can be taught humility. Taught to be less like his father and more like his mother. He has her eyes, [...]

Hello, Pretty. I know things are rough for you right now, but I love you. Hang in there, all right? Things will find a way of working themselves out, and someday soon we’ll have the chance to have our own crazy adventures together instead of just talking about what the future might possibly hold.

The radio played “Any Way You Want It” in the background of the overcrowded bar, full of rednecks and rockers and professionals who were ready for the weekend. “Two beers, please,” he called over the sound of a group of already-tipsy middle-aged woman singing along with Journey to his left. He paid the bartender in [...]

Adjusting the backpack slung over his shoulder, Grant surveyed the landscape before him. Old and worn out, it was rugged, vicious, full of strange landscape formations and teeming with creatures that were no doubt as scared of him as he was of them — yet ready to strike at a moment’s notice.

In reply to - Troy wrote about the word montage A montage of beautiful images flashes on a screen. A father playing catch with his son. A woman pushing her daughter on a swing. A couple in love walking hand-in-hand on a beach. And without warning, there is a flash, and they all fall dead. This is war. A war montage, not happiness. • View -

That’s actually who I was thinking of when I wrote it! Thanks :)
In reply to - Marron Marvel wrote about the word montage A stack of pictures strewn across the hardwood floor; memories from a life shared between two loves as the days and years rolled by. The montage of photos brought a tear to his eye as aged fingers lifted a wedding photo from the pile. She was gone now, but never forgotten. • View -
