Exactly!

Many of you seem to be quite interested in horses...
(That one might take a while, but it's rather funny once you get it...)

Re: Trading stories for words
Alright, you ended up with collecting 126 words starting with R.
I've been diligent today, so there are now 108 of them left. The new story "Rancorous Reunion" is 302 words long so far, and I have no other plans for the evening...
The other two ("Crestfallen" and "Meandering") will be send to you as soon as post-production is finished, means: as soon as all mistakes are eliminated.

Great news, Schmiezi. So hopefully your brain won't melt and you'll be able to work on R.

Oooooh..."Crestfallen"!
I nearly collapsed in the corner, crying...

Re: Trading stories for words
It's so wonderful. Loved the cycling shorts and the cowboy boots! And so much crying. Brilliant, as Arthut Shappey would say.

Cycling shorts and cowboys boots are a combination made in comedy heaven!

Don't make people into heroes John. Heroes don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one of them.

While you are hopefully enjoying M, I have reduced the R-List to 67. It's about Time that the healing begins!

Re: Trading stories for words
54 r-words to go. It's a bit tricky this time because I need certain things to happen but don't want to have long paragraphs without any of your words. Still, it's great fun!

Re: Trading stories for words
Actually, I think many of the reviews the stories are getting on AO3 and ff should be directed to you, word-givers. Many ideas came to my mind only because your words were so great!
