Find The Word Tag

Quick shoutout to @on-noon for the tag. Much love!

I’ll be tagging: @cabaretofwords @spuddlespud @jezifster and anyone else who wants to join.

These are your words: dead, runaway, forest, tower, and blanket.

My words are: claw, afford, hold, ruin, and longing. All these snippets came from my current wip, Sunny Mage.

Claw

Thomas put the necklace on. The chilling look on the kid’s face had sold it for him. That wasn’t a look that could be easily imitated. That kid had been through something and had managed to claw his way out.

Afford

A knot of unease twisted inside Sunny’s stomach. With the next level fast approaching, and the devious plans their enemies had cooked up for them, Sunny couldn’t afford to lose an ally.

Hold (I have like 74 of these, holy shit...)

Sunny threw her arms up. “Hold up, in your example the snowball still made direct contact with the flask. Yeah, the energy was conserved, but the objects still physically touched. So how can I transfer energy to something that’s out of reach?”

Ruin

“Ruins the vibe.” Harmony said, “They want the audience to see us the way we really are: damaged and resilient. My older brother, Cam, competed a couple years ago in the semifinals. The guy who became the champion got hit with a pipe to the chest during the level. It missed his heart, but it nicked the bottom of his left lung.”

Longing

Despite what hollow fairytale books said about Mermaids, about them being kind hearted creatures who broke out into song, they were far from the truth. In real life, Mermaids were worse than sirens. Because at least sirens lulled their prey in with peaceful songs and longing looks—giving them at least a sense of security before they pounced.
