Finally, A Free Lunch!

“Misha, help!” Emily screamed. She had always wanted to talk to Misha Collins, but those was all she managed before the elopus’s tentacle-trunk wrapped around her face, filling her mouth and constricting her throat. “Mmrph mmrph.”

Misha Collins reached for his smartphone, ready to tweet for aid, but then from the darkness something came hard and heavy across his wrist. He flinched from what he thought must be another deadly elopus tentacle-trunk, but then he saw the truth. From a cloud of inky elopu-blackness stepped...her.

“Liz Saxe-Coburg!” Misha exclaimed, like a bad actor from a worse television show. “Why?”

The Queen twirled her umbrella casually. “I’m hungry. I’ve ever so hungry,” she said.

“But you can’t eat my fans!”

“Oh no, never them,” the Queen agreed. Then she unhinged her jaw and swallowed Misha’s head.



kest writes: so I'm doing this scavenger hunt thing and I was wondering if you, as a published sci-fi author, by any chance would be up for writing a 140 words max story involving Misha Collins (actor who plays Castiel on Supernatural), the Queen of England, and an Elopus (half elephant half octopus). It would need to be today. (And it's of course ok to say no - it's a weird request on short notice, but I figured it didn't hurt to ask)
