282 words this AM. Still floundering, but I'm just going with it and will see what's salvageable at the end of the week. Among other things I'm trying to find the right tone for Illya and Angelique.


"You lied to Napoleon," he said without preamble. "Why?"

"Darling, of course I lie to Napoleon, just as he lies to me. It's called flirting. Perhaps you should indulge in it some time." She spoke lightly, but his stare made her look away.

An interesting definition of flirting. *g*

Kudos on keeping at it! No doubt the right tone will emerge as you write more of their dialogue.

I can keep them sniping at each other forever :D But somewhere down the line I should move them along!

Oh, this exchange is on the edge of something. Have you decided what their backstory is or are you still finding it?

I have their backstory I think. It's complex though, and I was hoping to get away with something that I could just make glancing references to. This was meant to be a short piece. Oh well...

Oh, the famous intention to write a short piece. I am familiar with that intention.

Sometimes just wading your way through it is what has to be done. Well done for persisting.

Great line!

Tells you a lot about her, doesn't it?
