Allison Ann | 1245 comments Sorry team, I'm running super late. No time to type up the story right now, I'll post it when I finish this afternoon. Have a good day (possibly a Thursday? not entirely sure).

Allison Ann | 1245 comments This is the best I can do for now. I'm not happy with the ending, but it's definitely passable. I tied in our characters from the last story, and the planet New Wave Upside Down Cake used it theirs, as well as the dessert. Thoughts, ideas, anything? If we're happy with it, I will post it before bed. Thanks team.



Jane Doe, Abby Cooper and the Book Woman of Troublesome Creek gather with friends and family at the Glass Hotel, located on Hidden Valley Road, for a pre-wedding tea party celebrating their engagement. A massive New Wave Upside Down Cake stands pride of place in the centre of the buffet table, sugar and iced by Dick Smith, pastry chef of the renowned wedding team of Smith, MacTavish and Lady A, the cake glistens with sugar crystals and splintered bones. Three women stand nearby, accepting congratulations from the tea party guests. Jane will make a fiery bride (literally, she’s a creature made of flames). Despite her nondescript name, she’s a masterclass in how not to blend. Her fiancees can’t take their eyes off her. Abby is a delicate girl of hawthorne and glass. She sparkles in the morning light, casting rainbows through the grand hotel. The third bride wore blue.

While the guests depart, Willie MacTavish and Lady Arabella Araminta Anastasia Jones scamper amongst the crowds, throwing hearts, Jordan almonds and pink smergel grubs, wedding delicacies on Planet Lothaire. When you marry on February 14th, what other theme option can you have but Valentine. Don’t forget to Save The Date.

Allison Ann | 1245 comments Thank you ladies. I have posted the story in our spreadsheet and in New Wave Upside Down Cake's thread. We have earned every possible point and are currently in second place. Not all the teams have entered their final points, so that may change. But I think we are going to stay fairly high up. So brava all!

Rachel (stillchasethewind) | 452 comments So far we are in fourth. Not too shabby. It was nice reading with you all.

Rayne (raynebair) | 201 comments Good game everyone!

I'm so proud of us for completing this challenge even through the crazy situation we find ourselves in. It just amazes me how this thing has affected everyone around the world. We are all united in this. Instead of watching it from across the globe, we are truly all impacted.

I hope everyone is still staying safe, even as we slowly make our way back to normal.

Alissa | 351 comments 4 is not shabby at all. I am impressed.

Thanks to everyone for all your reading. I know I was struggling finishing anything a month ago. I also appreciated having contact with people elsewhere during this crazy time - it made it oddly reassuring it was everywhere.
