Where These Flowers Bloom
detective fiction, started as a writing assignment for my english class. it's probably going to get a different sub-universe name, because WTFB is the title of the 'short' story. apparentally i am incapable of writing something where the police are good. (they might condemn an innocent civilian to death's row)
#officer norbert holland | #norbert holland | #norbert -> norbert! main character, partner to lisa. seeks justice for those who cannot find it themselves. originally an officer in north shore police department
#detective lisa franks | #lisa franks | #lisa -> lisa! main character(?) doesn't have a pov in WTFB. wishes to be entertained, doesn't care if it's by drugs or detective-ing. has so many aliases.
#captain sharise | #sharise -> captain of the police force, makes morally questionable decisions, but well respected in the force
#lily valleen | #lythe | #myst hyd | #myst -> who is she????
as soon as i have time, i'm gonna mess around with my files so that i can post a pdf or something of what the star's see, but the front page might be notes and have my password for something in it... so... you'll get that when you get that all 0 people who want it
Welcome to the June Dialogue & Trope Challenge! (Also my first time ever doing one so forgive me if there's any mistakes)
Each day includes two prompts:
✦ A line of dialogue
✦ A trope
The dialogue and trope won't always seem like they fit together—and that's intentional! The fun is figuring out how to connect them. Maybe the dialogue is spoken by the hero. Maybe it's the villain. Maybe it's a memory, a lie, a prophecy, or something else entirely.
Interpret the prompts however you like:
✦ Any fandom or original characters
✦ Any genre
✦ Any length
✦ Any rating (just tag appropriately)
✦ Mix and match genres, tropes, and settings
If you participate, feel free to tag your work with #JuneDialogueTropeChallenge (long I know) so everyone can find and share each other's creations.
Happy writing!

Go to the inaugurations of littlely known artists’ exhibitions.
We are always begging for people to attend, there actually is the “hack” to invite your whole family but tell them to pretend they don’t know you. People with money are more willing to buy your work if they think many people likes it, so your mere presence eating our cheese and canapes will be a great helps. Please bring whoever you want too.
one time a pal of my pals was having a tough time selling their work in an art exhibit and called us up on the last day, ‘us’ being about 8 students who were Very hungry and also bored. We put on the nicest/artsiest clothes we had available (one dude had a legit fancy suit and put on some shades which were Bright Pink he looked like a movie star I swear) and rolled up to the show in pairs, separately. Fine Art Pal has some nice paintings! but nobody is really paying attention to them, so after getting some fancy cheese cubes in a manner that did not betray that we were actually a ravenous pack of starving students we casually wander around the show and then, fairly individually, drift to a stop by their work. Some of us even walked away, then came back a bit later ‘captivated’ by the art (it was actually really nice but recall we were all poor as shit and this was a help hustle). Our group’s interest naturally caught other folks, and eventually there was a small clump of about 15 people musing over this art, and within ten minutes the biggest piece had been snatched up by a shrewd investor. by the end of the exhibit every single piece was sold. It helped pay off the artist’s student debt and on that success they got into another exhibit! They’ve been doing well ever since.
So yes, please attend new artist shows, you get free cheese, get to look at nice art, and you can really help out people who deserve more attention.

Wei Wuxian: Look, Nie-xiong, it says “gullible” on the ceiling.
Nie Huaisang: Nice try, Wei-xiong. I’m not falling for that one a fifth time.
Wei Wuxian: I’m not kidding.
Nie Huaisang: And I’m not looking.
Jiang Cheng, walking into the room, looking up: Hey guys, why does it say “gullible” on the ceiling?
Nie Huaisang, looking up: Really? Wher- oh, you bastards!
Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng: *high five*
