picked a handful of violets in my name

Short story is due Tuesday. I meant to turn in Blood Is Sweeter, but the story I have wound up writing is set a few years earlier than Blood Is Sweeter (and a few years after other stuff I'm working on), and could possibly be soundtracked exclusively by Cobra Starship (in fact, I may title it The City Is At War).

Word count: 2236
Page count: 8/~15
Plot: Sam and Al have met and are flirting. Soon to come: a lunch not-really-a-date, a party that makes the papers, a parental freakout, a lunch really-is-a-date, angst and makeouts.

In other writing news, here's the tentative dramatis personae for the story tentatively titled Warped Omens.

( ignore if you have no interest in bandom )

I'm 430 words into the vampire story, and that was done in about half an hour between classes.

After class, I went to Chinatown to get some stuff for a care package swap I'm doing (note to self: has to be mailed tomorrow), and I turned the wrong way after I came out of the T and wound up wandering around downtown Boston for a while. But I did eventually make it.

And when I got home, the apartment had aired out. \o/
