WIP Guessing Game

[crowsb4bros]

This game is going around on tumblr, but I thought it would be really fun for our forum as well (with a couple of modifications for forum life). Feel free to use original or fanfic.

 

Post a word, any word, and if it's in the next person's WIP they'll answer with the sentence or line it appears in and leave a word for the next person!

 

Example: if someone left the word 'books' for me, I'd reply with my line containing the word

 

 

“I guess that I should be thanking you and Agent Blackwell for noticing my books last night.”

 

and then I'd leave my word for the next person.

 

The first word will be:

 

 

know

[Guest pookha]

She knew he wouldn’t, the lure of the Veil was too much; he had to know what it was and how it worked, just like his father.

 

the next word is

 

'cat'

[Vilja]

oh... so can the promt word be just a part of a full word in my line?

if not please ignore me

 

In the dream, she was riding a broom trying to catch up with a riot wagon.

Marysia, Chapter 2

 

next word:

the

[crowsb4bros]

in general I'd probably say it needs to be the actual word, but let's just carry on!  ;D

 

 

"The fragrant scent of peonies bursted into the small apothecary shop as the glimmering gold doorbell jingled loudly, announcing the arrival of the first patron of the day, Mrs. Waldorf."

 

the next word:

 

thought

[Rhaenyra]

When Shannon thought of her childhood holidays, she remembered being squished in the backseat between her elder sister and younger brother.

 

Next word:

air

[crowsb4bros]

“So I have to stick my leg in the air and take a nap. Got it.”

 

;D my character sprained her ankle

 

next word:

remember

[victoria_anne]

Tristan woke blinking against the sunlight streaming through the window. It took him a few seconds to remember where he was. It took a few seconds more to realize his arm was slung over Delaney, her own hand on his chest. He froze, not daring to move in case he woke her.

 

Your word is short!

[Vilja]

There was a short pause in the conversation before Flume continued, “Visit me if you fancy. My wife and I are offering a delightful choice of sweets.”

 

wand

[ImaRavenclaw]

Lorcan is laughing with his girlfriend Lily Potter, sending the soft and grainy sand up into the air with his wand and casting his patronus (a dog) to dance around Lily, who is laughing and looking up at Lorcan adoringly.

 

The next word is love!

[Vilja]

Ryszard was somewhat older than her, and had started that term at the school as the Alchemy teacher. They had met a few weeks before, and Marysia instantly fell in love with him.

 

Next:

stop

[mydearfoxy]

Quote

She heard the bustle of traffic grow louder, and then swell to a roar, and she knew she had to stop now or die trying.

Next up: snitch

[FireOpal]

Quote

After that Cho is blessed out for several minutes, but even before that she seemed to be in surprisingly good spirits seeing as it was only a little less than a week ago that Ravenclaw lost to Slytherin after that little travesty of a Seeker Draco Malfoy managed to capture a Snitch that seemed more than a little partial to him.

Wow, that sentence needs to be rewritten for clarity, haha!

The next word is: elevator

[Guest Tanda]

Quote

Gordon took an elevator to the 4th floor and expected he would find a blue entrance door. But he could find only a yellow door on which there was a brass sign, “common room” when he stepped out of the lift. When he opened the door, there were two old men who were playing chess. He reckoned Cho and her mother might have used magic. He made up his mind to wait outside the building. When he descended on the ground, the sky was getting darker and a gentle rain started falling. It was such a day he lost Fiona. He looked up the grey sky and kept standing there forever. He didn’t mind being soaked to the skin.  (from chapter 5 draft of "Out of the Magical World".)

The next word: station

[velajune]

Quote

Though it was not their first time returning to the station and setting their eyes on the red train, Fred felt chills tickle his spine.

 

next word: staircase

[victoria_anne]

Quote

It opened onto a huge room with a wide hallway down one side, where Wren could see closed doors coming off it, and a grand staircase on the other. It was richly decorated. Tapestries especially, and a few paintings. Wren thought he saw a few of the tapestries move, but it must have been a trick of the light.

Next word: story

[Guest Tanda]

Quote

The story his father told Albus was shocking. Imagine you were destined to die since the mad wizard had embedded a part of his soul into your body.

next word: the Milky Way
