Wild West - Part 26 - 5 minute freewrite challenge
Wild West - Part 26
They tried to override the foul taste of eggs with whiskey, but to no avail. Not Tom, nor James finished the meal. Instead, they managed to finish the bottle of whiskey in full.
“This one time I had to kill 3 men, all at once,” James started talking. “They looked real tough and were known to harass the ladies,” The booze got the best of him and he just kept on going, “They paid for their services, sure, but some got disfigured beyond recognition after they were done. I tried to talk to them at first, just to see how things go, you know…” he smiled to himself, “alright fine, I wanted a good fight. Just shooting them would be boring. As expected, they didn’t take my critique of their actions very well and came charging at me. You should have seen the look on the guy’s face when I knocked two of his buddies out. He screamed like a baby and went running out the saloon,” he lit himself another cigarette. “And the treatment I got from the ladies after I killed all three of them. Spectacular. Probably my favorite job of all time,” vividly remembering the events, he puffed a cloud of smoke into the air. “And yours? What was your favorite job like?”
"Scream"

Better get these bad boys to sleep then :P
They've had enough whiskey, so they might just fall asleep at the table haha :D
I love how you always throw the whiskey and bourbon in there. It gives them so much more character. I loved this! Getting all caught up!!!
Exactly! I feel like it somewhat represents their torment, their desire to let go of all the pain they feel inside... Not an easy task to live with yourself after you've deserted your family and killed hundreds of people.... I guess.
Thanks! :D
Happy to have you on board! :D
I would say less letting go, and more masking, wouldn't you?
Ahh, yes, you worded it much better!
Masking it is! ^^
Amazing post
