A rose for a line of WIP! Bless you all for responding with such enthusiasm, I feel justified in sharing more than just one line heheheheh.
I am pleased to present Miss Delia Davis! Lesbian, actress, New Yorker living in London, and best friend of Arthur Hastings. She's insane and I love her. This exchange is when she and Hastings reunite after he's been away fighting.
"She looked up, eyes finding Monty first, then landing on me. Her pink lipsticked mouth fell open in an expression of total amazement. I grinned, overjoyed to be seeing her darling face.
“Arthur!” she screamed at full volume.
Heads turned, first at the sheer volume of her exclamation, then to watch as she leapt up and ran to us. A chair blocked her path, and she swept it aside so hard it fell over. I opened my arms to receive her."
