I sure hope the title doesn't count in the word limitations, if so my entry will be....well, 86'd!
Visit your local Humane Society this weekend and give some love to all of the beautiful and hopeful creatures waiting for their forever. A smile and a pet, a pat and a coo, goes a long way for these guys! :)) Have yourselves pet-tastic weekend!

I am reading 2312, Kim Stanley Robinson, and this reminded me of potential passage from him. I love how you were able to tell a story through this format.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I have never read the book, or heard of the author, for that matter, but wow, we're less than two hundred years apart...cool.
DeleteGulp. So that's the end, huh? I like how you presented this.

DeleteSo glad you liked it Janna :))
Ha! Not with a whimper, either, but with robot-like precision! Love the format.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kymm! Swift and precise. :)
DeleteA clever take on the prompt Shawn, I really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you enjoyed!
DeleteIt's always the evil robots!
ReplyDeleteWhere's R2D2 when you need him?
DeleteGreat job, but what about the Prime Directive?
ReplyDeleteI kid, of course.
Prime Directives are for mere mortals, resistance is futile! Thanks for commenting TMW :)
DeleteVery clever approach. I like the "business as usual" tone.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ivy, yeah, no room for a dilly-dally.

ReplyDeleteIt's always something, isn't it? Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteI'm not too sure how to take your comment...Sounds remarkably like a comment a teacher would make to their unruly student....hmm...The answer to your question is....YES, there always IS something and I'm darn glad you're diggin' it ;)) Until next time, peace, love and all that other stuff too! :)
