For Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where the given word is Imperious and the limit 123 words.
It’s another Saturday night at The Red Lion. The usual crowd are in the far corner.
Unsteady Eddy’s tottering from the bar with their drinks, everyone diving for cover as he slops beer all over the place.
That’s Tearful Tina. It takes nothing to set her off. She sees a kitten, she cries. Someone says something nice, she cries. When she laughs, she cries.
Imperious Pete’s in charge. His domineering manner regularly triggers Tina’s torrents and makes Eddy clumsier than he normally is.
With Jolly Jill, Lanky Larry, Snotty Dotty and Windy William, you have the most eclectic crowd you could ever wish to …. avoid!
At last, here comes my friend Rosey. She’s like all of them rolled into one.
Only kidding Rosey!
.
Cool story!
Cheers Sadje!
Thanks
Sounds like somebody needs a change of scenery; the crowd at the Red Lion’s getting old. Except Rosey, of course. 😉
Rosey’s stayed the same age she was when I introduced her about 12 years ago. How has she done it?
Rockin’ Rosey is likely to deck you Keith for comments like that!! LOL
Living dangerously!
Hope you can duck!
Should I envy Rosie or pity her?
Dear Keith,
Quite the crowd you hang with. Sounds like a must to avoid. 😉 Entertaining use of the prompt. 😀
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thank goodness it’s fiction! Thanks Rochelle.
Oh oh, there comes Rosie … 😉
She’s never far away especially if I’m buyng the drinks!
Ah, well … okay … (scanning the room carefully … and I think I’ll pay for my own drink and sit … well … way over there … 😉 )
very wise!
😀
Ah, Rosey is the one you want to be with!
…in small doses Mimi!
But Rosie’s adorable so she trumps all the others!
I have to agree – especially as she reads all comments relating to her!
