23. Phew, that’s a lot.
Surely this must have been going for over a year now.

Anyway, yuss, thank you to pb for picking me as winner of the last SSC, and here’s a new little thinger to get your mitts stuck into. I thought I’d choose this topic after the song my winning story reminded pb of, because I’m sentimental and all, awwww. Anyway, go forth and bring back a story related to or entwined with (or something) the topic of:

Wire(s)

So, yuss, stick that in there somewhere. I don’t care how.

Rules:
- Not too long, y’know. FFF doesn’t want to be outdone, does he? (ah crap, I know what’s coming)
- Entries must be good (sorry crossbob).
- Needs to be in by midnight on 28th April, that’s a Thursday. I’ll judge on the Friday.

Go.

Okay, okay, okay. Judgement time. Hurrah and such.

3rd Place: "Instinct" by Paradox
Short, snappy, and for all but one of the paragraphs really, really good.

2nd Place: "Invisible Wires" by Meka
I felt this was something quite different to most other Meka stories, and I really enjoyed it. Top stuff.

Winner: "Loss" by Stryke
Excellent, emotional, and yeah. Brilliant. I related to it on so many levels.

Pushover. Only because you buff FFF to the max and want him to win. You're like Simon Cowell on valium.

Well I'm working on something at the moment. I'm going to struggle to get it finished, and worse still, I shalln't have time to edit today.

Hopefully it'll be up in some form before midnight...

Was hot, still is hot. But now it's hot and wet. Thunderstorms just past over.

Lets hope I get out of here before monsoon season!

I've sorted one thing: It will involve bleeding.

Oh, and it won't get done.

I didn't kill her, honest.
People accidentally push themselves down the stairs and then repeatedly slam their unconsious heads against the bannisters all the time.
