This was a new one with a lower limit (500 words instead of the usual 1000) and it was fun. They plan to run it again next year and expand some, so I'll be looking forward to it.
I got two gifts, which makes me excited. I write a lot of pinch hits because I enjoy it, but I do admit feeling a little twinge of disappointment that no one ever treats me.
My gift was
Just Be Close At Hand with Leia and Luke. My prompt was "tell us how Leia really feels about Luke" and I feel like this nailed it. A little sweet, a little anger, a lot bitter, and all good.
My Treat was
An Im-Poe-rtinent Question with Wedge Antilles and Poe Dameron. Short, sweet, in character and funny!
My entry for the exchange was
The Ones Left Behind, focusing on Leia and C-3PO being the last 2 together. It's a little bitter and a little sweet, and my recipient liked it, which is good!
