Morning, peeps.

Pledging Post

Thought you guys might be interested to know that if we managed to get everyone who has pledged so far (and we still have two days to go) up to their maximum pledges by writing enough fic, then we would raise $1182.

Cavil waved way yet another bloodsucking, disease-carrying, damned parasite. Insects, second most irritating thing the universe ever came up with. He felt a slight tickling on his cheek and slapped. His hand came away with steak of blood and the mangled body of one of the bloodsuckers. "Got you, you little prick."

He continued stomping through the forest, kicking up billows of gray dirt and dead leaves and leaving a trail of broken branches. "You should get off the basestar, John," he mimicked Three's voice caustically, "Get some fresh air." He inhaled. "Fresh air smells like a midden, it's all dead shit and ..." he stepped into some animals droppings, "frakking crap!" He scrapped the crap off his boots still muttering, this time mimicking a Two, "Our sister is right, you should join our hunt for insurgents in the forest. Revel in the glory of God's creation."

Cavil stood in a clearing. It was undoubtedly exactly the kind of place Two thought as the 'glory of God's creation.' Trees towered over him, sunlight steamed through leaves turning from deep summer green to rich autumn gold and red. Birds called, small animals darted to hiding. The undergrowth rustled in the wind. "God's mother-frakking glory, my ass, it still smells like shit to me."

Thanks. Cavil's voice is fun, I need a brain bath afterwards, but he's still fun to write.

However creepy you found writing him, you nailed it! This is great. You got his voice perfectly.

Thanks, what was so creepy is that he kept trying to get me to write some humans to kill. I just said no, repeatedly & loudly.
