Getting ready to meet Lord Stormbringer...

For [livejournal.com profile] mini_nanowrimo Iros and Turnspit get ready for the interview with Stormbringer.

Early tonight, because I've got sniffles, a headache, and feel like someone has thumped me in the kidneys. I'm going to bed early, and hope that I won't have to call in sick to work in the morning.

The levy assembles.

for [livejournal.com profile] mini_nanowrimo. This is totally not what I meant to write tonight, but I do need to explain about how Turnspit got his clockwork.

Aughisky think *differently*

AKA 'check your assumptions at the door'

For [livejournal.com profile] mini_nanowrimo. This bit got away from me, and went off in weird directions. I think it works. Set before yesterday's bit.

Nov 25 mini-nano

for [livejournal.com profile] mini_nanowrimo

Because of a flight delay and the airport shuttle *never* arriving (I had to take a cab home, and oh boy I'd better get reimbursed for it), I'm a tiny bit late getting this up. Also, I jumped ahead in time more than a bit. There are at least five scenes between this one and yesterday's.

Turnspit's new clothes

ha! Actual sex, instead of just implied sex. From Iros' POV no less. It's embarassing how much I write when I'm doing a sex scene. I don't think this advances the plot much, though I think there are some good character/world-building bits in here.

For [livejournal.com profile] mini_nanowrimo. It's surprisingly hard to write someone whose worldview doesn't include the *concept* of prayer. Or familial ties. Or personal literacy.

wee flashback...

For [livejournal.com profile] mini_nanowrimo

I realized that I need to write about when Brewster sent Turnspit to the mines before I could write what happens when Iros and Turnspit have their audience with Brewster. So, here it is -- part of it, anyway.

Overheard conversation...

Totally not what I was intending to write today, but Crowther and Iros were talking, and Turnspit heard it. A wee bit graphic at the end.
