Fair

His fair hair rustled in the wind. A bright smile graced his face as he beamed at the world.

"TAKE THAT WORLD!" He shouted from the cliff top, his wings spread out behind him. Then his face turned to me. He looked me in the eyes grinning.

"No, what you're thinking about doing, we're not doing it," I cautioned, stepping back, "Callum- no."

"Callum yes," he teased before running straight at me. He grabbed me by the waist and propelled us off the cliff, down towards the crystal water.

I screamed as he laughed.

Right before we were scheduled to fit the water, he dipped up. His wings brushed the water creating a dance of droplets from them. (TBC)

Pick a celebrity and feature them as a character in a story - folktale, myth, whatever you like

The tavern was crowded. Loud. Hustle and bustle everywhere. Arguments being settled, games being played. Some uh, questionable activities happening in the corner. I did not want to go that way.

I trekked towards the bar. There was this one woman there. She sipped from her ale looking around at all the other people, mostly men, occupying the same space as us. Something about her intrigued me but there was something else telling me that talking to her would be a bad idea. Not for me, but for the reason she was at the bar in the first place.

Determination and rage gleamed in her eyes. She was on a mission and who was to stand in the way of such a thing.

I sat down on the other side of the bar away from her. The barmaid came over.

"Can I get you a drink miss?" she asked.

"Could you get me a vodka soda and that lady over there a mojito? thanks!"(TBC)

Write about a trip you have taken. If you have ever traveled outside of your native country, write about that journey: what stuck with you?

Here's the thing: I've traveled to many countries. To many places in said countries. There's no way I could explain my favorites. I guess I can talk about my memories of Bulgaria. Some of my favorite, more recent (by 2 years) memories are as follows.

One of them is the food. My grandfather has this little grill that I would help grill pork chops on with him and my cousins. Those are some of the best pork chops in the world. That also could be in part because of its local meat. We'd also cook sausages on it. And after going to the beach we'd usually go get ice cream. Those cones in the big blue containers that contain millions of different shapes, sizes and flavours. My favorite is definitely vanilla with a cone and chocolate coating (second up being identical save for it being chocolate flavored). My dad and I started this routine of going to a pizza place with some amazing pizza and ice cream. There he, myself and sometimes even my cousins would do a bunch of math problems, binary arithmetic problems and discussion of moral dilemmas. (TBC)
