  2. Thanks. I even ran with the suggestion in the prompt, literally dropping him in the woods.
  3. That would have been a good end to them. Thanks
  4. Thank you and you’re welcome.
  5. Thanks. Just goes to show, we all need somebody sometime.
  6. This one comes from Prompt #71. Write a short story featuring only one character. No secondary characters at all. You might drop them in the woods and see how they fare, or come up with your own idea, but only one character is allowed. Fraser Vogel knew it was dangerous to parachute in high winds. He wasn’t left with too many options in his Cessna 182 Skylane when its yoke seized and the engine failed. Jump or crash? Pretty easy choice.
  7. This is Fraser Vogel. I was flying my private plane, a Cessna 182 Skylane, from Cheyenne Regional Airport, WY to Spokane International Airport, WA on Sunday July 27th, 2025 to attend a meeting the next day. I ran into mechanical problems and had to abandon the aircraft. I’ve included my attempt to contact ATC. Hopefully I’ll survive. “November 9292 Foxtrot declaring an emergency. I’ve lost yoke and engine.” “Repeat, this is November 9292 Foxtrot declaring an emergency. I’ve lost y
  8. I just started reading this one and jumped ahead from chapter 4 to see if chapter 71 was the last but it simply didn’t get marked completed. I know you know this Ben, but having completed “Sneak Away” for the Comicality tribute last year, I’m considering doing the same for another; I believe there’s another kind of tribute planned. This one might be too long to finish quickly, still having 60+ chapters to go, I don’t know where it leads. Anyway, just thought I’d mention my thoughts.
  9. I hesitated reading this one because I didn’t think I was going to like the topic. So, don’t let that stop you from reading it either. The first two chapters are mostly setup. But after that it’s a “hold on to your hats, this going to be one hell of a ride.” So, get off the title page and start reading, you’ll be glad you did. I know I am.

    As is common for me, I’ll respond musically, That’s What Friends Are For.

    Wow, first. Thought about using the sad emoji. Because it’s over, but changed my mind. I guess I just have to wait to see if you change your mind about books 2 and 3. You mentioned a possible epilogue, if it’s not going to happen, you should mark this one complete. Even though I was hesitant to start this one, I’m glad I did.
  12. Caught up; only a day before the next chapter is posted. Tom, huh? I guess the parking garage should have been a big hint.

    Uprising

    I think the correct adjective would be “worse.”

    Clarity

    I don’t like blue cheese or ranch dressing, but even if I did, I’d never dip my wings in them. Same reason I don’t put any kind of sauce on my steak. If it’s cooked right, it doesn’t need it. I’m glad Sean got rescued. But, even speaking Japanese, he would have recognized his voice. On that same vein, why didn’t Gabriel recognize the voice in the amusement park as the guy he conversed with over the back end of a corvette?

    Uprising

    I’ll steal a line from a Twilight Zone episode: “You’re a bad man. A very bad man.” Fake homeland guys kidnapping Sean? Not cool. Not cool at all. Okay; great twist.

    Amalgamate

    I’m guessing the Senator sits at the back of the box and foils the killer because he’s so high and close, and the angle is wrong. By the time the killer sets up further away where he can see the whole box, the Senator left because he hadn’t planned on staying for the whole concert. Besides, he’s only a fan of the opening act, heehee.

    Gabriel sees Tiger, but it’s a dead end. Scott’s on the job, but what exactly did he find?

    Yeah, I was able to spend some time reading last night.

    Revelry

    I didn’t spot it on the first read through, but then I had forgotten you mentioned that. I’d have to read it again. Maybe I will, maybe I won’t. You’ll know if I do because I’ll answer your comment again.

    Congress

    I believe he was because you simply stated that the thug checked his pulse. Never said what the outcome was. Everybody else seemed to think he was dead. I don’t like to be like everyone else.

    Realization

    Option E, none of the above. The government cloned Gabriel once they saw how useful he was. The clone has his memories so it was easy to figure out everything about him. Now I’m off to see how I did.

    Illusive

    The plot thickens. Gabriel’s twin being Frederick makes some sense, but then him working for Homeland and being a contract killer doesn’t.
  23. I hope you do win that prize someday.

    On My Deathbed

    You’re welcome, thanks for your comments.

    Congress

    I guessed right about Scott. Gabriel is running out of time to figure out how to save the Senator, and himself.
