Overheard.... and a response

Mar 07, 2009 15:55

Overheard today, as I walked through my neighborhood --

WOMAN, standing in the shadows of her front porch, speaking to two other people: I didn't stab at him with a *knife.* I stabbed at him with the *holder* of the knife.

Well, okay then! Much better! [/wide eyes]

Which thought led me to a drabble, just a little change-up on the theme...

It hadn't been a knife )

Sometimes you have a dark turn of mind. I like that about you. [squeeze]

Oh, dear -- and I tend to think of myself as Little Laura Sunshine. But the evidence is against me... ;-)

[hugs, cheers, and only the *good* kind of darkness]

Laura Sunshine is lovely too, but my default is dark. You knew that already though, right? [squeeze]

Thank you, A! I don't know why the drabbles and flash-fics have been dark, but...

Again, thank you thank you. :-)

Dark is sometimes more interesting. Think of all the secrets the dark can hide.
