Rainbow Snippets
Sep. 23rd, 2017 10:43 amHow is it Saturday again? This year is in hyperdrive. And since it's an insanely busy weekend where I should be saying I'm going on a steampunk train ride (but I'm not because a) too freaking hot, 90+ in Sept in Ohio??? and b) too busy), I'll get right down to it.
Continuing with These Haunted Hills and you finally get to learn what terrified Brendan in the woods (if Josh can stop chuckling at him that is). It's longer than it should be just so I can close out the reveal.
“Man, now I just want to come to your place at night.” Joshua bounced in his chair, and then – as Brendan sputtered into his coffee – went redder than the morning’s sunrise. “God! I didn’t mean it like that. Why can’t I talk around you? I swear I don’t normally blurt out inappropriate shit.”
Brendan snorted. “Are you sure?”
“Mostly.” Joshua thrust out the phone. “That’s what I study, that’s a fox cry.”
“That’s what a fox sounds like? You’re kidding. I had no idea.”
“They don’t sound like that idiotic song.”
Brendan rolled his eyes. “Thank god. Keep listening. There’s more weirdness.”
Joshua hit the next recording. The howls gave way to rapid fire yipping. “That’s gekkering. You have at least two foxes out there. Could be a territorial dispute though they sound youngish. Could be pups at play. I wonder if they’re any of mine.
If you want to hear what Brendan heard, here you go, fox howls and gekkering are both on here.
If you'd like to play along, Rainbow Snippets is a Facebook community where we post up 6 sentences of one of our LGBT stories every Saturday. It's been fun and you can find it here. Be sure to check out all the offers! It's been a great supportive group!
