When you go on an amazing hike to see 6 waterfalls & the kids have a challenge to win a prize that involves pencil rubbings at various stop points & your 9 year old daughter remarks 'What's a pencil rubbing?' 😳 (She was intrigued & totally loved it) #oldfashionedstuffisgoodstuff

I wonder if they'll know they're being #watched? Their eyes flick side to side Captured now and then As the light intrudes The darkened space Give that hope That there's an escape Something out there A world to run into If only they knew.

To a place It won't be obvious Like the forest Or too hidden either. I choose wisely I think about who they are and where they fit That will be the start of it Then I'll leave them Alone. #in_the_dark.

Walk and listen Silently If they run they'll be #grabbed I don't like it like that Too soon for energy Dispelled It takes time to conjure A spell to bring them to heal And steal Them Away.

'You set off the fire alarm?' 'Well, I thought, if he came out of his office and saw me across the street looking chic in my power suit and heels he might notice me.' 'And did he?' 'He did when I started flailing my arms and screaming.' #creativitystir

'It's called stalking, Barb.' Steve proclaimed. 'I'm very subtle, he never sees me. Last week, I disguised myself as a wall.' 'Are you insane?' 'I'm creative, Stephen.' Barb sat up proudly. 'I'll have you know, it took four hours to really blend in.' 'Wow! Only four. And?' #creativitystir

'I'm just going round and round in circles', Barb mused. 'In my dream I'm dancing with him on stage, loved and adored by the applauding crowd then I realise I'm actually being twirled around a supermarket in Hackney and getting lambasted for blocking the self service aisle.' #creativitystir

'And so I said to Romero, 'look over there', and he just stared and didn't move. I mean his body says strong and fearless, and hot, and sexy and... my god he's so...' She started to drift off. 'Ok, Barb. I get it.' #creativitystir

'Steve, you're such a good friend, listening to my exploits with Radiating Romero.' 'That's one word for him', he replied sweetly. then whispering to himself 'I can think of others.' Barb wasn't listening, she was deep in thought. 'But, I think I'm going off him.' #creativitystir

'Ok, so the outfit wasn't exactly in keeping but I think I got the cult vibe just right.' Barb twirled her dress. 'Cult vibe? Seriously?' 'Yeah, well Romero's hot, so I thought I'd play along for a while. It's actually been kinda fun, who knew cult members were so vacant?' #creativitystir

'So? How was the dry slope?' Steve asked. 'Not dry at all, decidedly slippery. I didn't know my body was capable of those sorts of contortions.' Barb giggled. 'I don't want to know.' 'No, Stephen you really don't. What you DO want to know about is the bar he took me to after.' #creativitystir

'And then I said, Romero, I'll do anything, take me to the moon and back.' 'And did he?' Steve asked, stifling a laugh. 'No he bloody didn't', Barb sighed. 'He handed me these shoes with wheels.' 'Skates?' 'And pushed me down the hill. I can't repeat what came out of my mouth.'

#fastprompt 1-5! It wasn't as if the black #cats crossed my path. I more than likely crossed theirs. One had its spine raised in a feeble attempt to scare me but even the hiss that came from its teeth-bearing mouth made no difference.

#creativitystir You have to understand that what you do today will literally affect generations. It isn't good enough to just see the chemistry because in this world that's skewed anyway, you have to believe. Like really believe.

The curtains stayed open. I'd stare for most daylight hours, but the signal never came. At night, it was too dangerous. They were drawn and locked, concealing us, shielding us from the hell that lurked in the far reaching fields. Would the victory siren ever sound? #FromOneLine

This is what we truly were. An alien species cursed to bathe in foaming lakes of acid so as not to reveal our true selves. Futuristic vampires, dissolving our bodies to reincarnate as human flesh. We were designed to deceive, no matter how painful the process. #creativitystir

Sometimes she wished she hadn't been '#enchanted'. Injected more like. An experiment she'd never agreed to it. As time shifted and reset, so would she have to. A virtual game for them, the infinite pain of watching him die over and over was all too real for her. #fastprompt 5

She tried hard to focus anyone she came across in this moment of time collapse. Minds were shifting rapidly, imagination was on overdrive. The confusion was real. Self-destruction would come soon. They were #lost. She held on, hoping desperately she'd find him. #fastprompt 4

Whilst others rushed and panicked, she sat on the cold, hard ground and simply breathed easy, as if taking in a Sunday stroll or enjoying a glass of wine by the pool. Nerves stilled as desperation #scattered. She'd rehearsed this moment and was ready. #fastprompt 3

Ancient ways and #study had taught her that time was irrelevant. Convincing others proved harder. They just saw a nerd. They thought she'd lost her mind with her scribblings of calculations on every surface she walked past. Didn't they realise these were signs? #fastprompt 2

Waiting made her heart ache. It felt like an #infinity. He'd promised her and yet she was here alone. Again. What did she need to do to convince him this was the way out. If her love for him wasn't so strong she would have left a thousand yesterday's ago. #fastprompt 1

It was always difficult this time of year. Knowing the voyage I had to go on, the quest I had to conquer to find the flame. I knew my heart would be pierced with twisted oak, but I'd have to endure it until I reached the lake where I could bathe. Death. Life. So closely connected. #creativitystir

'Turn out the light, or they won't see us.' A faint glow came from my skin, from his skin. 'How have I never noticed this before?' 'You noticed. You just didn't want to see.' In the distance the same glow appeared, muted, moving in unison. They were coming. #FromOneLine
