Microfiction Monday!

Susan from Stony River has managed to rope me into her creative multi-blogged participation! Just write a short story in 140 characters or less (altogether). Keep your microwriting sharp! Go over and read the many fantastic entries once you're done here--you're more than welcome to join!





Lord Rathbone sighed.

Why is it that my brothers get all the fun while I'm stuck here to watch?

Next time he'll use AXE.

Poor Lord Rathbone. He should put his foot down and demand they take turns keeping watch. I wouldn't recommend an axe, though.

The poor man. And on Valentine's Day, too. It breaks my heart. *perk* Perhaps I'll console him.

Great job.

Poor Rathborn, maybe a complete fragrance change would help.

Hmm...maybe he needs to set his sights higher than Axe. LOL At least he's giving the situation some thought! :)

Hahaha..
Poor Lord Rathbone if he expects Axe to turn him into a confident and girl-getting machine in seconds.
