Hello, Snippetteers! — sorry it’s been so long, I’ve been dealing with a massive case of writer’s block, and frankly, it’s been kind of a downer some weeks to look at the WIP and realize that I barely have enough new material since the previous week to make up a snippet! But things are slowly getting better, and I wanted to share what I’ve been up to. Sorry it’s another seven-sentence wonder, but I couldn’t knock off the first sentence, and it’s only three words, so… (Setanta, by the way, is Lasair and Bryce’s blind runt Fade-hound puppy.) (And I think this one requires just a bit of context — Lasair and Bryce are talking about Bryce’s insistence that he doesn’t “deserve” love.)

“Look at Setanta.” Lasair nodded toward the Fade-hound puppy, whose head now rested on his front paws and whose back end eagerly responded to the sound of his name.
Bryce obediently turned his head and arched a brow. “If he’s going to fart every time we say his name, we might want to start spelling.”
“I am trying to be serious here.” An impossible task, needless to say, especially with amusement finally lighting his lover’s dark eyes. “Does the Odorous One fret over what to give us, or what we are willing to give him, or whether he has earned what we give him?”

Aww, such a sweet moment, laced with a little humor and a lot of profoundness!
Way to beat that block! Thank you for sharing. Happy Writing!
Even Fade-hound puppies fart. I guess it’s a universal among puppies, huh?
Hey, that’s what romance is all about, right? Identifying the universals of human — and occasionally canine — experience.
LOL! Oh, that was funny and sweet. 🙂
Puppy!!!! Hilarious moment – thanks for sharing! 🙂
This made me grin
Aww, the Odorous One – sounds like my pup!
