Taking the opportunity to combine three separate tags for the last sentence tag games and WIP Wednesdays (tagged by @siena-sevenwits, @winterinhimring, and @writerrose1998) and drop a few connected sentences because I can >:)
“Where is he.” Avarus’ voice was low, not so much threatening as commanding, with all the assurance that he would be answered. Arric didn’t answer anyway.
call it the last sentence tag game, a tag war, or WIP Wednesday, but I hereby gently tap @kraytwriter, @brievel, @musewranger, @let-the-whump-commence, @hollers-and-holmes, @freenarnian, @siena-sevenwits again since it’s been a while, @called-kept, @elsabet-writes, @phoebeamorryce, and anyone else who wants to :)
I haven't written anything but work in a few days so this is as good an reason as any to blow the dust off a WiP that's been waiting far too long...
Misty looked doubtfully back into the mirror, chewing the corner of her lip, and sighed, meeting Max’s eyes in the glass again. “I suppose you’re going to make me get it, aren’t you.” He moved forward, raking her from head to toe with his eyes. “Yes, I am,” he said bluntly. “Last thing I want is to see you spread your DNA down a half-mile stretch of highway.” He cleared his throat and added a bit huskily, “It does look cute on you.

@afaroffsong (when you return from hiatus, dear,) @muse-write @paranorahjones (if you're up to it) and @lady-merian because I owe you a Calvinball anyway

“They say that you grew up on Tatooine,” he ventures.

Tagging @musewrangler and @kraytwriter <3
Thank you for the tag @afaroffsong !! Since this one is more amorphous I’ll give a few lines—
