Drabble Time! (No, not Hammer time. Drabble time!)
Hi team!
I mentioned in my first rambly captain post that we're going to be doing some writing exercises to get warmed up for the Matchup Challenge. A Drabble Tree is a fun way to get started, and hopefully it will get everyone writing.
I'll post a comment to this entry with a short snippet, and someone else will riff off that initial comment with a response of their own. The next poster can either respond to my original comment, or the new comment(s) (again, using a line or an image from the prexisting material) and so on and so forth until everyone has posted.
There should be different comment threads branching off one another (like the titular tree, how appropriate!) and as long as it's angsty and at least 100 words long it'll fit the drabble requirements. Just make sure you're responding to the right thread - it's probably a good idea to make use of those "subject" lines. The key thing is to keep things interactive and to be using other peoples' ideas to come up with something new. Write as much or as little as you like, too. Hopefully everyone (even our pinch-hitters!) will take a couple of turns.
Okay, have fun! Bring the angst!
