#WIPSnips prompt 11/08, #test (Taken from 'For the Love of God')

“You love them,” Luce said softly. “But you love them at a distance. You hear their prayers – you hear them frightened, grieving, begging for help or mercy or courage, wanting the sky to open and answer back. But no one prays for violence, or cruelty, or greed, Gina. You don’t hear that part.”
“And you don’t hear anything else,” Gina replied. She pushed herself up a little straighter. “You accuse me of loving them at a distance, and yet you condemn them from the same place. You test those who are already skewed to fail. You read the records after the damage. You weigh the soul after the choice. You see the wound and call it the body.” Gina’s voice thinned, but it did not soften. “You have shown me the nine in ten for two thousand years. But not once have you looked properly at the ones beyond your verdict.”
Luce opened her mouth to argue, then closed it again with her lips pressed to a thin line. The rebuttal should have been easy. Somehow, it wasn’t.

Luce sighed. “Fine. If you insist on banishing me into the wilds of suburban Dunmouth, I shall walk.”
“Good.” Rhia turned back to the table, then stopped. “Actually, while you’re out, pick up some milk.”
Luce stared at her. “Milk?”
“Maybe some paracetamol.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Milk,” Rhia repeated, reaching for a sticky note and scribbling with vicious pressure. “Paracetamol. Oh – and some printer paper. A-four. White. Nothing fancy. If they’ve got those cheap reams wrapped in blue plastic, get two.”
Luce eyed the note as if it were a summons from an inferior court. “And what, precisely, do you expect me to use to acquire these thrilling objects?”
Rhia looked up.
Luce looked back.
A long silence passed between them.
“For fuck’s sake,” Rhia muttered. She crossed to the hallway, rummaged in the pocket of her coat, then returned with a handful of cash. “Here.”

Scowling, Rhia opened the packet with enough force to send crisps flying. “God dammit.”
“I don’t think ‘God’ would trouble herself with damning such trivial things,” Luce said.
“I’m sorry…” Steph’s eyebrows rose in surprise. “Her-self?”
Luce rolled her eyes. “‘The devil is a woman’ is no problem, but ‘God is’ and all hell breaks loose?”
Steph blushed. “I-I’m sorry, I just—”
“It’s fine,” Luce said with a theatrical sigh. “Happens all the time.”
“Does it?” Rhia asked, genuinely curious.
“Well, no. I can’t say it comes up often, actually.” Luce popped another crisp in her mouth, savoured it for a moment, swallowed, and then said, “I’m not in the habit of having discussions with humans – and no other species in the known cosmos has ever put Gina and me into such narrow boxes.”
Steph’s eyebrows went higher. “Gina? God’s name is Gina?”
Luce fixed her with a flat expression. “This conversation is rapidly boring me.”

WIP snippet for #vssmagic prompt 10/05 #banter Who is Luce? I can't WAIT for you to find out. You know her well - you just don't know you do, yet. 🖤🍸

The group settled into easy banter, and Luce began to tune out – but then a sudden reference to her pulled her attention back again.
“That someone you know?” Rhia was saying to Steph, and Luce could feel her gaze prickle.
“Nope,” Steph replied. “We clocked her too. Gorgeous, right?”
Rhia sniffed, and her expression darkened. “Trouble, more like.”
Luce stifled a smile. Finally, someone who saw past the surface.
“Kind of trouble I’d fall in with any day,” Tori said with a wide grin.
“Shut up, Tor,” Steph said, throwing a cloth at her. “You’ve already salivated all over her – let someone else have a turn.”

WIP snippet for today's #vssmagic prompt, #hissed.

The mugger’s head snapped round at her approach. “Oi,” he snarled. “Piss off or you’re next.”
Luce continued to stroll toward them, her poise exquisite. “And here I thought Dunmouth was a respectable city.”
The man shoved his victim aside and hissed through his teeth. “You deaf? I said piss off.”
Luce smiled. Suddenly, she was beside him. She had him by the throat before he could properly gasp, hauled him sideways and slammed him into the wall with enough force to rattle brick dust loose. Against his ear, she whispered, “Now, now – where are your manners?”

I'm saying nothing specific about this book until it's ready to publish because the full concept is INSANE (even by my standards), but I couldn't resist sharing a snippet for today's #vss365 prompt, #fury

Luce swallowed a sigh and let herself sink, bitterly, back into fury.
It had been a long time since Luce had last seen Gina face to face, and the contrast with the woman she remembered had landed harder than she cared to admit.
She’d never imagined Gina could look like that. Gaunt, frail, holding herself upright in that ghastly bed by sheer bloody will. Not Gina. Not that bright, dangerous creature who once wove worlds and rewrote universes as if neither task required any effort at all.
Ill, pale, dying, and still admirably stubborn. Still clinging to the infuriating certainty that self-destruction counted as principle so long as she did it in the service of someone else. In service of Earth, and its infernal bloody humans.
Luce took another sip of the martini and let the cold burn slide down her throat.
Earth and humanity could jump into the void, for all she cared. The whole loud, careless species spun on in blissful ignorance while the woman holding the thing together by force of will and old love quietly died for it.
