Short affair PROMPTS for September 2nd

[jantojones.livejournal.com]

The posting date for these prompts takes us into September. I believe that Sept 2nd is Labor Day in the States, so please feel free to add it as an element of your story.

You'll find the prompts for September 2nd down below the cut. For stories due today, simply follow this link.

https://section7mfu.livejournal.com/2605852.html

Don't forget, you can now chose to use one of the prompt words, or to use both in your story (not forgetting the colour element), remembering to state which combination of prompts you are using.

Remember, Section VII is a Gen site, but stories which are Het, Long-term Romance or AU can be posted in mfu_map_room.

You can post directly to Section VII or, if you wish, you can post your story elsewhere and provide a link. Please say where the link leads as a lot of people are unwilling to go to certain sites. Don't forget, Section VII and the Map Room are both available on Dreamwidth, for those of you who can figure it out (Just let us know if you posted there).

Have fun.

It was a dreadfully cold day with gusting winds sending a shiver up Napoleon’s spine as he stepped through the door of Del Floria’s.

It was always warm inside the shop because of the steam press, and instead of heading straight to the dressing room he paused, removing his overcoat, fedora and gloves.

He stood there, holding his hands up near the evaporating steam hoping to thaw out his numb fingers, while mentally reminding himself to buy a better pair of gloves.

“Thanks Del,” he said and that was acknowledged with a mere nod of the head by the man behind the press.
