Author Notes - This is for a claim over at
1sentence The following are 50 sentences based on the Beta set over at
1sentence. Basically, the point of the claiming community is to write only 1 sentence based on each prompt. I fail when it comes to semicolons and hyphens, so most of these probably aren't grammatically correct - especially when trying to manipulate/abuse a single sentence to get the most out of it :P It's pretty hard to make things "in character" in just one sentence...so I'm sure there's some OOCness abounding in these. Also, I think there's some redundancy with some of them because I didn't write them all at once and forgot some of the previous ones.
While most of them pertain to the toy characters of Dolly and Woody, there are some AUs as follows: where Woody is the Sherrif and Dolly is the witch in Bonnie's playtime, where Dolly is a showgirl in the wild west, where she is simply the woman Woody is courting in the wild west, where they are married in the Civil War wild west, and where she is a brothel/barmaid like character in the wild west. As for Woody, he's ALWAYS a sheriff in the wild west ones xD
