Description:
Welcome to the Dog Days of Advent. I made a list of prompts, and wrote a bite-sized story for each one. They don’t live in the same universe, but they’re all a little off-kilter from what you might expect from holiday fare. And if you pay attention, you’ll notice that the last line of each story becomes the first line of the next. Today’s prompt is Storm
Excerpt:
“What’d you fly?”
“Oh, whatever needed flying.” He gave a small shrug, as if the details were unimportant. “Cargo. Rescue. The odd emergency route on Christmas Eve.”
“Christmas Eve?” the student holding the baby asked. “Like… weathering storms?”
“Like whatever came through the air that night,” he said, eyes glinting.
