Owiz swiveled Eyestalk 7 to peer at her friend. “What’s up?”
“Well, it’s Flash Fiction day,” said Mazzy. “And I haven’t written yet.”
Owiz extended Tentacle 3 and patted Maddy’s head “Don’t worry – I’m sure it’s fine,” she said.
“But it’s a commitment!” Mazzy.said.
“But it’s VOLUNTARY!” Owiz replied, blond spikes waggling agitatedly. “They’re not gonna drop you!”
“I know,” Mazzy sighed. “But I can’t think of a thing to write.”
“Maybe you could write about us?” said Owiz.
“Nah – no one would ever believe it,” Mazzy said.
