"Wow what a great price on this farmland!" Thought Bru at the land agents. "I can't think of any reason why not to buy the cheapest plot possible!" #WIPSNIPS #litrpg #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting #writingprompts #ploughshares
The house is, to put it mildly, fucked. Now that I’m looking at the walls and ceiling I’m a little alarmed at the thought that we’d spent the whole night underneath here. This place needs a sledgehammer. Or maybe another fire. The only thing that might be salvageable is the stacked stone chimney, which is also not in great condition. I can probably re-point it, replace some of the burnt up mortar with fresh stuff, but there’s a metal sleeve in there that’ll need to be replaced, and there’s no universe where I can get to it. Not with these shoulders. Maybe Kellan can get to it.

“Civilization!” Kellan gasps, raising his hands into the air as if in worship as I pull the cart out of the way of the footpath. “And the fruits thereof, by which I mean alcohol! Wine! Beer! Normal, human-made booze, nothing green or glowing! No weird debuffs that resist remove curse spells! Just regular alcohol that gets you regular-style drunk, what a godsdamned miracle!”
“We can’t get drunk,” I say, as if I’m not also feeling the allure of getting absolutely dead-as-the-gods hammered and passing out in sheets that are someone else’s responsibility to clean. My eyes drift to the goat cart’s absent goats. “Unless they have a place we can keep Wrack and Ruin.”

I haven't written it yet in Ploughshares, but here's the moment Thomas catches feelings in Machinations. Warning: it's... idiosyncratic. #SumLuv #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting
Penny looked him over, appraising. "Can I come over there? Sit in your lap?"

He scoffed at her. "Why?"

She shrugged, spreading her hands. "You look like you need a hug." She eyed him to see how that landed, saw that it really didn't. "Uh. I need a hug?"

That didn't fly either. He stared at her in stony silence. She huffed out an exasperated breath. "Because I need to get inside your guard far enough that if you decide you really hate the things I need to say to you, I have enough time to use this." She pulled a hypodermic needle from her pocket.

Thomas stared at her, then at the needle, then back at her. Then he burst into hysterical laughter. "Fucking… What? Jesus Christ Penny! What even is that?"

"Haloperidol." She didn't even look a touch ashamed.

Charlie left the Owens clan because he hated it, not because he was bad at it. #WIPSNIPS #urbanfantasy #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting #writingprompts #Machinations1
Charlie, at least, kept his focus. He ushered them through the stacks toward the place he’d already staked out as the most likely place for any confrontation to occur. Niamh tried to move like him, stepping in his footprints, quiet and careful as a human possibly could be.
She wondered for a moment at the man’s unearthly calm. She’d seen him working the bar, keeping track of drinks and drunks alike with a sort of detached amusement. He was good at that, one of the better bartenders in the city, but he was built for this. He found the deepest part of every shadow, slipping between pools of darkness with an economy of motion usually only available to big cats. Niamh was impressed despite herself.

Some bandits pick the absolute worst wagon to rob. #WIPSNIPS #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting #writingprompts #ploughshares #litrpg
I’m not in the dungeon. Angelsbane is packed away. I’ve got Breaker on my hip but my hands are full of heavy-ass wagon. 
And the fact is, even a poorly fired arrow can kill me out here. I’m not worried about infection, but dungeontouched bleed out just like baselines do. I can’t ignore the threat.
“So don’t ignore it, draw me and stab the everliving shit out of them before they know what’s happening!” Breaker snaps. 
It’s right, but isn’t that why I left the dungeon? To not live like that anymore? To be a normal woman who does normal things? What would a normal woman do in this situation?

You don't get to be friends for 25 years without having a few stupid-ass fights. #WIPSNIPS #litrpg #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting #writingprompts #ploughshares
Kellan growls, but is silent for a few moments. He wants to shout at me. I’d like him to shout at me. All my dungeon-diver instincts have me keyed up for a fight and the only one around who can actually offer me one is Kellan. But he doesn’t want to fight me. His voice is intense, low, and biting. “I’d like you to acknowledge that if you don’t share the plan you don’t get to call it a plan. You don’t have to apologize to me, but you also don’t get to blame me.”
I take as deep a breath as I can, hold it for a moment, then let it all out in a rush. “I’m too angry to hear sense right now.”
Kellan lets out a groan and presses the heels of his hands into his eyes, but he leaves me alone.

Brunhilde is kind of over getting the shit kicked out of her in melee combat. #WIPSNIPS #litrpg #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting #writingprompts #ploughshares
I shrug. I lift a bare arm. Kellan winces in sympathy. The armor on that arm is gone. There was a disruption enchantment on the king’s sword that fucked up the scales. They were able to blunt the edge enough to spare me any of the cutting power, but I still took the full kinetic force of the strike. It was like getting a love tap from an avalanche. The bruise spreading beneath my skin is huge and dark, and the flesh is swollen. “He tagged me pretty good.” I let the arm fall. It’ll heal. Everything heals eventually. “How did y’all do?”

I got "border" instead as Brunhilde describes her farming vision to Kellan before they leave the dungeon #WIPSNIPS #litrpg ##writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting #writingprompts
“Tell me about the town,” he says. 
I pull a map from my inventory and toss it to him. It’s a pretty good map of the Heronstep Bay region, from the swampy areas down south of Descant to the broad rivers of Sylvania that drain into the bay. I put my finger on a point quite close to the Sylvania border, almost equidistant from the elvish capitol of yFell and the human city of Ebmorrea. 
“It’s called Lane,” I say. “Not named for the type of road, but for a guy, Torvold Lane, who founded the place. It’s a pretty small community, maybe a couple thousand people, and most of them are farmers or people who support farmers like feed stores and fencepost sellers and blacksmiths and stuff.”

Then came the magic. They invested the gold-glass-spice-smoke mixture with Niamh’s energy. Then Joey poured in the carrier liquid blended 50-50 with Niamh’s blood. Once the whole mess was brought to a boil Kimmy sent her power coursing into the cavitation bubbles to diffuse throughout the liquid and turn it from something that would shred your insides when you drank it to something that would, hopefully, counteract Void.

First snip from Ploughshares! Dungeon Controllers aren't always this direct but are almost always huge assholes. #WIPSNIPS #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting #writingprompts #litrpg #ploughshares
I keep my focus on the helmet. I don’t recognize it. It’s not a part of Paula’s usual gear. It’s huge and ornate with big silvery wings arcing down from the pointy top to shield your cheeks and neck in a way that would absolutely obliterate any peripheral vision. I examine it, pushing my intent forwards until there’s a familiar springy feeling behind my eyes and the Dungeon Controller floods me with information, both in the form of a little box full of text and in direct to my brain speech.
//Oh I get it you only want to talk to me when you think I’m going to be useful, how typical.

It was barely six in the evening and the club wasn’t open yet. Thankfully the staff all knew Seb on sight, and greeted him warmly. “Mr. Starlight is in his office,” a bartender said as she sliced limes at the bar. “He said he’s expecting you.”
	A little thrill ran down Sebastian’s spine. He’d thought that sensation had died when he did, the pleasurable suspicion that someone you liked might like you back. He shook his head free of the emotional cobwebs. This was a business arrangement. He was here to discuss their business arrangement.

	Ellis could not fail to notice the expression on his face. He reached out and touched Sebastian’s cheek. “Not here,” he said softly. “Not in front of him, obviously. But don’t I deserve to know who I’m allowing into my sanctum? You’re not the only one at risk here.”
	Sebastian let out a breath. “No. I suppose not.” He leaned into Ellis’s touch and put his hands on his fiance’s hips.
	“Trouble in paradise?” Corvus’s papery rasp had a cutting edge. His fangs had extended: yellowed ivory thorns in that dark, cavernous face.

Thomas did not stop. He wrapped his arms around Kimmy’s powerful thighs and did not let up on the swirling, pressing rhythm he’d found with his tongue. She shuddered, tensed, and then broke against him like a crashing wave, like a pulse of liquid light. She collapsed against John’s legs, moaning incoherently.

Being used to something didn’t mean you necessarily enjoyed its presence. Penny kept her breathing even and her gaze relaxed when the carcasses rolled across the floor, meat and sinew bubbling and popping as Gary made a body for itself. Her empty stomach churned. The NDA made this so much harder than necessary. Penny took a step back. If she was going to vomit she needed to not do it on her summoning circle.

Penny, senior enough to have an arcane crusader but not accustomed yet to its use, highly ranked but young, was to hang back from the scrum. She was to watch for openings, give assistance where it was needed. They said that she would be their wild card, their ace in the hole. It was an important role, they said, allowing for optimum flexibility.
She was surplus to requirements and they wanted her out of the way.
