“Hey, whatcha doing?” Daniel called to Charlotte. He stood up quickly and Mindy burst out laughing. Daniel glanced down to see his shorts around his ankles, his boxer briefs the only thing keeping his privates from full view of the world. The boy yelped and dunked back into the water, Mindy now howling with laughter. Even Fred and Lena were guffawing now.
Rhodes, Chloe. A Certain “Je Ne Sais Quoi”: The Origin of Foreign Words Used in English. Pleasantville, NY: Reader’s Digest, 2010.Déshabillé (also dishabille) undressed (French). Dating back to the seventeenth century in English usage, this word is used to convey the state of being either very casually dressed or only partially clothed. In settings where propriety required a certain dress code, it would have referred to an inappropriately informal and careless way of dressing . . . These days it is still used to mean undressed . . . Things had been strained in the Mortimer household since Mr. Mortimer had been caught in a state of déshabillé in the church hall with two members of the women’s group.
I'm sure it's only a coincidence that M posted about Deshabille right after I posted about a kid with his shorts around his ankles. Hehehehehe! Oh, M. :)

LADY TWILIGHT: I knew you’d be back.
OOC: This probably doesn’t make a lick of sense by itself, but it’s a graphic novel, so I don’t have a lot to work with.

Lesnar saw through the posturing; he knew that Kurt had leaked their conversation; this was McMahon’s way of punishing him. Brock went along with the plan regardless, and following a victory over improbable challenger Hardcore Holly at the 2004 Royal Rumble, he and Goldberg interacted physically for the first time later that night when Brock jumped the former WCW star in the Rumble match, leaving him easy prey for Kurt Angle to eliminate.

Kaleo jabbed at the Poet’s eye, sending him wailing into his hands. The Jester crumpled into a pile, and Kaleo squatted beside him and yanked at his hair, repeatedly smashing his face into the floor. Each blow was brutal, the sound of teeth cracking punctuated only by the squelch of mangled tissue. Blood sprayed across the stone in spurts, and the Jester went limp, his body resting in a pool of crimson.

“Alright.” I took a deep breath and tried once again to calm myself. I shouldn’t get so upset. I knew they couldn’t help it. It was hard for them to be thrown together like this too. I mean, their clans had never gotten along on their home planet, why the hell should I expect these two to get along here? But still, they kind of owed me so they could at least try!

To cool off, I swung from one side of a giant waterfall to the other by a rope attached to…wait, I don’t even know what it was attached to! Oh well! It was refreshing. After that I was so hungry I ate an entire active volcano! I still have heartburn, ha-ha! See me waving there? Good times. I was pretty tired out but I always wanted to try cat back riding and how many chances am I going to get? Then there was this little mishap! So…yeah, I’m still on vacation.

YEAR: 2003
GENRE: Nonfiction
SUBGENRE: Inspiration
It’s the people we love the most who can make us feel the gladdest…and the maddest! Love and anger are such a puzzle! It’s hard for us, as adults, to understand and manage our angry feelings towards parents, spouses, and children, or to keep their anger towards us in perspective. It’s a different kind of anger from the kind we may feel toward strangers because it is so deeply intertwined with caring and attachment.

There’s enough food here to feed us for a week. We’re both in hotel bathrobes, our naked bodies tantalizingly within arm’s reach of one another underneath our robes.
OOC: Yep, this is definitely a parody.
BOOK TITLE: Sick Little Monkeys: The Unauthorized Ren & Stimpy StoryAUTHOR: Thad Komorowski
YEAR: 2013
GENRE: Nonfiction
SUBGENRE: Cartoon Biography
Originally, Ren was envisioned as a psychotic Peter Lorre-esque character that would call people up, threatening to kidnap their babies. Stimpy was barely defined at all; his only trait – which stuck with the character – was that “[he] had no idea what’s going on. He only has one nerve ending and it reacts slowly to sensation.” While Kricfalusi was living in Van Nuys with Lynne Naylor and fellow former Sheridan students Jim Gomez and Felix Forte, many story bibles for possible series and feature ideas were helmed, like Mildman, the world’s first gay superhero. Ren and Stimpy were among many former doodles developed into actual characters in a concept called Cartoon Cavalcade (later renamed Your Gang).
I've been meaning to do this for a while.Note: I actually forgot the page number we were supposed to put on here but let's pretend I chose the 55th (it's really the 44th). I just thought two things: I like that it describes the title of the book and most importantly, it has no spoilers!
Book Title: Savage Run
Author: C.J. Box
Paragraph:
"The canyon called Savage Run cut a brutal slash through the center of incredibly rugged and almost impenetrable Wyoming mountain wilderness. The Middle Fork of the Twelve Sleep River, which created the canyon over millions of years of relentless shaving and slicing, and now a trickle due to upstream irrigation. But the results---knife-sharp walls, a terrifying distance from the rim to the narrow canyon floor, virtually no breaks or cracks through the rocks to assure a crossing---was geologically stunning. The canyon was so steep and narrow that sunlight rarely shone on the stream. The canyon cut through eight different geological strata. While the rim was twenty-first century Wyoming in drought, the floor was pre-Jurassic rain forest. The last time the floor was exposed, Tyrannosaurus rex peered through gaping eyes at prey."

BOOK TITLE: Double WhammyAUTHOR: Carl Hiaasen
YEAR: 1987
GENRE: Fiction
SUBGENRE: Environmental Thriller
Skink rowed effortlessly; wavelets kissed at the bow as the little boat crossed Lake Jesup. Decker enjoyed the quiet ride in the cool night. He was still slightly uneasy around Skink, but he was beginning to like the guy, even if he was a head case. Decker had met a few like Skink, eccentric hoary loners. Some were hiding, some were running, some just waiting for something, or someone, to catch up. That was Skink, waiting. Decker would give him plenty of room.

And part of me hopes that me immediately grabbing his books is just a coincidence and not because of his name, lol.

TULIP: Don’t be silly. I’m just so relieved you’re okay. What happened to your poor cheek?
JESSE: Uh? Hell, you should see the other guy. Sweet Jesus.
TULIP: Heh, heh, heh. Wanna see what else I bought?
JESSE: Mmm?

I thought I was back to eating pancakes. They’re nothing to look forward to, but a box of instant mix (just add water) is only $1.05 at Big Star. I’d just stirred up a batch when Mom came by with some groceries. I accepted them reluctantly – “Aw, what are you doing?” – but am so grateful. In the bag was a chicken, a brick of frozen flounder, orange juice, a can of peaches, a loaf of bread, and a can of pinto beans. The only way to assuage my guilt is to make a super-beautiful papier-mâché rabbit for next Sunday. I started one a few days ago, and as of now it looks more like a dog than a Greek Easter bunny.

SUBGENRE: Anti-Bullying
(Excerpt from “Savage Beatings” by Garrison Kelly)
What exactly did this woman like to do to elves? Did she have a bondage dungeon? Did she actually have intercourse with her “products”? Ugh. Products! As if Windham didn’t have enough reasons to feel like an animal. As if the B-word label didn’t tattoo his brain enough already. Now this woman was going to make him feel completely worthless, no different from dirt, should he be captured. Hoping it would never come to that, Windham swallowed a lump in his throat and wiped cold sweat from his forehead.

GENRE: Fiction
SUBGENRE: Fantasy
“The lady,” as she was called by her detractors, had been encouraging people to take up arts, but only a few had bitten so far. Considering the state of Whitecrest’s fields and the demands of the work required to carve out a life here, these changes had gone too far. She didn’t voice these thoughts; as an apothecary, it was her job to put people at ease. Sometimes worry and fear were as dangerous as any sickness. “I think your concern for your daughter’s future is outweighing your usual good logic, Mr. Weatherly. You know Eunice will be back to normal as soon as she gets this poetry out of her system. Loneliness will soon settle in, and she’ll be giving Ed attention.” Even busy with her herbs, Rosamund had been lonely, until Fitcher came. “Why don’t I make you some tea before I go?”
BOOK TITLE: Catch 22AUTHOR: Joseph Heller
YEAR: 1955
GENRE: Fiction
SUBGENRE: Political Drama
The nightmares appeared to Hungry Joe with celestial punctuality every single night he spent in the squadron throughout the whole harrowing ordeal when he was not flying combat missions and was waiting once again for the orders sending him home that never came. Impressionable men in the squadron like Dobbs and Captain Flume were so deeply disturbed by Hungry Joe’s shrieking nightmares that they would begin to have shrieking nightmares of their own, and the piercing obscenities they flung into the air every night from their separate places in the squadron rang against each other in the darkness romantically like the mating calls of songbirds with filthy minds. Colonel Korn acted decisively to arrest what seemed to him to be the beginning of an unwholesome trend of Major Major’s squadron. The solution he provided was to have Hungry Joe fly the courier ship once a week, removing him from the squadron for four nights, and the remedy, like all Colonel Korn’s remedies, was successful.
OOC: That’s a lot of run-on sentences in one paragraph. Holy crap!
BOOK TITLE: A Shadow All of LightAUTHOR: Fred Chappell
YEAR: 2016
GENRE: Fiction
SUBGENRE: Fantasy
I looked down at myself and was astonished. No subtle shadow of slowly shifting tints and flamy shapes enwrapped my shoulders, torso, and arms. Instead, I wore a filmy, light mantle or robe of ungainly cut all pieced together of vivid ribbons, with colors of lime, azure, scarlet, emerald, ember-gray, and inky purple. No self-respecting harlequin would ever don such an outfit. Now that I saw it plain I could feel its weight upon me, slight but palpable.
OOC: Here’s hoping I make it through the book with my sanity intact.

GENRE: Fiction
SUBGENRE: Urban Fantasy
Jason blinked, then glanced around in a daze until his gaze finally made its way to his chest – his open, bloody chest and the internal organs now fully exposed in front of him. Panic set in; his eyes widened, his hands trembled, and his lungs surged as he helplessly gasped for air. Then, with a sudden swell of energy, he clutched at the rails of his gurney and let out a deafening, horrified scream.
OOC: I tapped out when trying to read “Catch-22” and “A Shadow All of Light”. This book, on the other hand, looks like it’s full of promise!

The bayou is still. A breeze kicks up small ripples, but the same clump of lilies I saw this morning still touches the bank on the other side. Cypress trees and live oaks draped in Spanish moss stretch over their shadows rippling in the water.

I’ve come to the conclusion that there are certain friends in your life who are always your friends and you just have to accept it. You see them even though you don’t really want to see them. You don’t call them, they call you. You don’t call back, they call again. You’re late, they wait. You don’t show up, they’re not upset. You try and stab them, they understand.

Babushka’s tail
Is a useful veil
She often plies
Around her eyes
To fend away
The light of day
Where she lies curled
In her small, warm world
Secure from the strife
Of daily life
And its infinite grief.
Babuskha, sleep well.
Thank you, Tail.

She didn’t want him to touch her again and only now realized she’d been summoning the Blood Call when she sensed the beating of Pompey’s heart, the flow of the blood pounding through his veins in his rage. That had been the drumming sound. She had been slowly tugging at him with her magic, building up a slow seething within his veins as he continued to utter one foolish thing after another. She fought a smile when he began to scream as several blood vessels in his cheeks popped. A window shattered, lightning scorching the sill. He dropped her arm. The shattering glass restored her reason. Disgust twisted her stomach.

I curve my hand around the back of her head and lean away from her just enough to look at her.

She hung up and dialed her security company. After talking at length with a technician, she was reasonably certain that her new friend wouldn’t set off any of her motion alarms. She added collar and leash to her pet-shopping list, knowing that she’d have to keep the dog on a leash when he was outside, at least until the yard was done. Though she didn’t intend to leave the dog outside, she wanted a dog house so he had shelter from the weather if he happened to venture out when she wasn’t home. With a small smile she realized she was about to get a crash course in having a dog. And secretly, she loved every moment of it.
Aw man. Quite some time ago I thought of putting a few quotes on here but avoided them because I think about stuff too much. I've got to stop being my old self-conscious self and just post again lol.It goes back further than the book I am posting below but still.
Author: Ray BradburyBook: The Illustrated Man
Excerpt from story The Other Foot:
"He was remembering Earth, the green Earth and the green town where he was born and raised, and he was thinking now of that town, gone to pieces, to ruin, blown up and scattered, all of the landmarks with it, all of the supposed or certain evil scattered with it, all of the hard men gone, the stables, the ironsmiths, the curio shops, the soda founts, the gin mills, the river bridges, the lynching trees, the buckshot-covered kills, the roads, the cows, the mimosas, and his own house as well as those big-pillared houses down near the long river, those white mortuaries where the women as delicate as moths fluttered in the autumn light, distant, far away. Those houses where the cold men rocked, with glasses of drink in their hands, guns leaned against the porch newels, sniffing the autumn airs and considering death. Gone, all gone; gone and never coming back."
You should definitely post more often, CJ. This thread is getting lonely, just like the contests.
Yeah I've noticed that too. Hopefully me reading more will help me post more and even lead to writing stories too. I haven't seen the full state of what's going on with this group but I will do what I can to encourage the members here. Sorry for my absence.
You've been a great moderator, CJ. You don't have to apologize. :)

Chad played quarterback in high school. He was all right but not quite as good as the kid who backed him up, but, hey, that kid’s dad didn’t pay for the new practice field. The private school Chad went to destroyed the similarly sized public schools in their region when they played each other because while they had the same enrollment, the athletic budgets were astronomically different. Chad gets pretty used to winning this way. He makes pretty good but not exemplary grades (his tutor is Chinese but nice enough otherwise). Chad gets his face in the paper and a partial football scholarship to Wake Forest. He goes to Wake but passes on the scholarship because he just wants to “focus on school.” His dad happily foots the bill – school is important.

Paragraph:
"I recall so clearly standing under the blazing equatorial sun of Africa and watching the native herds being led to their owner's water wells. Some of these were enormous, hand-hewn caverns cut from the sandstone formation along the sandy rivers. They were like great rooms chiseled out of the rocks with ramps running down to the water trough at the bottom. The herds and flocks were led down into these deep cisterns where cool, clear, clean water awaited them. "
