wave_obscura and her lovely teases of her WIPs:
Post a sentence (or two or a paragraph) from as many of your WIPs as you want, with no explanation attached.
Shocker of shockers.... They all feature Cas!
1. Castiel frowns. Frown #12, ‘Your human brain cannot hold all the information required.’ “They severed all ties with humanity and with heaven and hell eons ago. They are a force unto themselves. They are Godless beings.”
2. “Those are my wings. Sometimes in flashes of sudden and bright light, a camera or lightening, the shadow of them is visible. The space they take up in the nether region pulls the light in. Much like a gravity well.”
“Are you telling me you have black-hole wings?”
3.He snorts in laughter as he sees the first picture of Castiel standing stiffly next to a very large iguana and then another one of him standing stiffly next to a very large turtle. They are followed by more pictures of Castiel standing stiffly next to bizarre animals until the last picture which is of a sea lion hugging Castiel.
4.“Grand posturing, showing off strength and flexibility, preening.” Castiel ticks off the list like he’s watching the Discovery Channel. “I have been the recipient of many suggestive looks and possibly one lewd gesture with his mouth, although he may have been telling the truth when he said he was getting something out of his teeth.”
5. “Kill the rat by biting its neck and drinking the blood.”
Castiel does flinch this time but he takes the knife out of the rat's tail, picks up the twisting creature and holds in front of himself. His eyes flick back over to Ruby, painfully blue and intense. She nods once.
He snaps his teeth on the rat and breaks the skin. It shrieks loudly. Blood runs down his chin and he stares at Ruby.
Chuck vomits.
The rat falls silent and Castiel puts it back down on the altar. He stumbles backward, wipes at his face with the back of his hand and smears blood across it. He falls to the ground. Ruby steps around the altar and stands over him.
“I think it will hurt. I think it will hurt quite a bit actually.”
I think the only WIP I don't have anything for is what I was planning for my Big Bang - but that one is all plotted out. Although if I don't get crackalacking on it soon, I'll push to finish the WIP that #5 represents and use that as my BB instead.
or #1.
the other ones are shorter stories. but #1 will prolly be around 20000 if/when I finish. #5 is already at 35000 words. oops.
