shivverHeya! I'm back from my long vacation (which I didn't mention here). Thanks, romanajo123, for keeping the lights on for me!
It's challenge #400! Just wow! I didn't expect this comm to keep going for this long, but hey, if we're having fun, then that's awesome!
I don't have a specially-tailored "400" challenge in mind, so... I'm going to take inspiration from my vacation. Write a few paragraphs of your characters on vacation and traveling. However, let's not make it totally relaxing. (Trips rarely are.) Inject some tension into the scene. Ideas:
* Their flight just got canceled and they're trying to figure out what to do about it.
* They're having breakfast and the food is taking a long time and they don't know if they're going to make it to their bus tour on time.
* They're on their tour and standing on the edge of a cliff, and their guide, who's telling them about the place and showing them historical pictures, keeps backing up and they're concerned that the wind is going to blow him off. (Yes, this actually happened on my trip. Not the falling off part, but the "hey, why don't you come stand over here where it's safe" part.)
* The two characters have differing ideas of what they want to do, such as one wants to visit this museum while this one wants to go to the shopping district.
* One character gets sick. Maybe the food doesn't agree with them.
