@Venusian Broon
I had to go into my phone settings and turn off 'auto rotate' to read your box.

(And the demon didn't give me any sarky remarks this time!)

I daren't ask my phone. It'd probably sass me and call me square.

Very clever @Venusian Broon, is that venusian standard writing ?

Only on days which have the 43rd letter of our alphabet in them.

@Venusian Broon .... Enticing .... V. B. reminds me of a classic winner of this contest @Mouse when she wrote her tale in the shape of a mouse, and the only 75 word entry I have memorized in it's entirety "Sloth" in a contest which had as it's there the seven deadly sins. August company for sure, and a worthy successor but one that has me worried about what's really in the box.

Not really sure, Victoria, that that was the point of my entry...it's darker than that...

 

[Luiglin]

I'm in. Not sure how many will get it outside of the UK so will be interesting to see @Victoria Silverwolf and @Parson's reviews

However, it made me smile writing it... I'm sure they say it's bad form to laugh at your own jokes though.

It's behind you!

(Parson goes to read @Luiglin's post with a worried look on his face.)

@Luiglin .... It's the thought the counts .... Luiglin puts both the Dark Lord and a goblin in an awkward position.

(Well I do believe that flew right on by me. But I believe the Dark Lord needed to put some pants on that goblin. Or his situation was simply pants.)

Great interpretation, not right but great. I'll explain when voting is done. Cheers @Parson.

 

[Cat's Cradle]

Well, I blame my entry on the bleak, dark winter where I live, and S.A.D.
Cool stories so far! CC

[Victoria Silverwolf]

Daysman gives us the gift of precocious technological skills.

 

[Parson]

@Cat's Cradle .... He Sees You When You’re Sleeping .... Cat takes Christmas gift giving into the world of nightmares and no gifts.

*Reminded me of the cartoon which was in the "Makes you laugh thread?" It had a Calvinist Santa adding people to the naughty list.

@Daysman .... Gifted .... Daysman leaves us with a story which makes us wonder about generational gift giving.

 

[Calliopenjo]

I had some business to take care of. I'm here again, so give me a bit to think of something.

 

[Cat's Cradle]

Thank you Victoria and Parson for the reviews!

Parson, I missed the cartoon; the song was inspiration enough, though.

 

[DannMcGrew]

@Hugh 's Tuesday is a gift of delight.

 

[Calliopenjo]

I posted something, either yesterday or the other day. lol. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

On another note, I got my story back and I am looking forward to going through it again. Now that I know where to go.
