Trained as a nurse, historian Agnes was on the start of a six month jump back to the Blitz. During her night shifts in the hospital, she’d examine the faces of the wounded, searching for signs of consciousness - some of which flickered only when she whispered their names.

#2WordPrompt Two teams took the field at Wembley #Stadium, with a soccer ball fitted with cortical nodes, ocular devices, & neural processors. In the teams vs. ball #encounter, players had to avoid being assimilated by the football & becoming its drones. The team with fewer player assimilations won.

You wanted to meet
I faced with #dread
the #encounter
at the #stadium
I felt #ignored
while the crowd roared
privacy was #illusive
no one was listening
everyone watching
on the jumbotron
I became elusive:
I just left, you
didn't notice

The drugs were purposely #illusive. We went into the empty #stadium to free our minds. The lights in the sky were beautiful. They came right to us without warning. It was a much closer #encounter with the celestial and alien than we had expected: A different kind of trip.

In the stadium
passion overflows
as we encounter
the thunder of dreams
#2WordPrompt #Encounter/Stadium

A #scarf floated gracefully down into her lap. They were in a #stadium with hundreds of other people watching the Rolling Stones. A scarf landing in her lap was the last thing she’d expected to #encounter. She decided to take it home and maybe wear it later.

The #elusive dried leaf fell to the floor well short of Ahroun's charge. He returned a glare to me for the #encounter didn't go as he planned. His belief that a crusty leaf can fly tens of feet was as realistic as the #stadium of viewers who watched his prowess.

it was a close encounter
a passing on a metro platform
on the downtown line with
it's terminus at stadium
not until i got home that evening
did i find the note in a coat pocket
the only words written
"i see you"

#2WordPrompt [encounter & stadium]

Angela’s encountered Maya, the cute girl from the library, in a quiet corner of a stadium, where the crowd had thinned and the air smelled like rain. Maya was vaping and though Angela hated the idea of vaping herself, something in Maya’s confident demeanour fascinated her.

The #stadium writhed alive
the crowd swelled and groaned
#encountering that haunting note
A song, they sang, the words well known
An anthem for their mantra
Together or alone:
"Anywhere I roam. Where I lay my head is home. Yeah yeah!"

#2WordPrompt Survival not capitulation is the reward. #writingprompts

Just #surviving this task will be your #reward.
Well, can you tell us more about it?
No.
Is it possible to back out after we find out what it is?
No.
Ok, we’ll do it.
Good. Here’s the task. Follow Ben to your quarters.
They must be kidding. Change the prez’s diapers for 3 days each?

An astronaut in a space suit approaches a circular door to another dimension, his twin is coming out the other way

Going between dimensions, it pays to remember that crossings are less like #open doors and more like #revolving ones. Patience is a virtue when it comes to timing. The #reward will not only be your #survival, but avoiding a collision with yourself coming the other way

"How big?"

"Dead or alive?"

"Damn. I was still kinda hopin we'd #survive this."

"Maybe Momma should collect the reward."

#2WordPrompt Jinn, a ginger plushie with spiral eyes & a maniacal grin, waited for an owner. "Choose a toy as a #reward, Jen," a voice said. "But no dark things." A face framed with tousled red hair, wild green eyes, and a frenzied grin, reached for Jinn, and he wondered if he would #survive.

Sometimes I wonder
If the reward is to die
Or survive in life

I said hello. It didn’t go well, but I stayed long enough to prove I could. On the way home, I bought coffee I didn’t need, not for comfort but as a #reward for choosing to #survive it.

Maya had survived the fires in California not by fleeing it, but by learning which parts of herself could burn and still grow back. The reward was subtle—a way of walking into rooms without flinching, and a laugh that sounded like it had been rescued from the ashes.
#2WordPrompt

I dragged my ass out of bed at the butt-crack of noon to find her world didn’t #revolve around me. Where’s my #reward for tolerating her nagging? How’d I #survive with little complaint while she shopped for three hours? Nothing but a dear John and empty apartment now. Poor me.
