We're at it again! Day two of the I'm Hearing Voices Blogfest has begun and this one is all about dialogue.
The rules are simple: Introduce two of your characters using only dialogue. I chose Mole and Raven, two supporting characters in Ripple.
Ready. Set. Go.
"Just be the ball Mole, think like it and...shoot."
"Easy for you to say Raven. But I've got too many personalities in my head as it is. I don't want to be the stupid ball. This game sucks. I'm leaving."
"Where you gonna go? You're in a freakin' mental institution. All we have is our basketball court and some TVs hung from the ceiling."
"Can't you burn us out of this joint or something."
"Ummm that would be a big negatory. That's how I landed my butt in this hole in the first place."
"Fine. Give me the ball."
"Finally coming around. Here. Now, be the ball like I said."
"I'm not going to pretend to be this ball. It can't help me. It doesn't even think. I'm gonna crush you, you insignificant excuse for a ball."
"What the heck did you do that for? And where did you get that knife in the first place. We aren't allowed to have weapons here Mole."
"It's one of the butter knives from breakfast, genius."
"Yeah, well, your butter knife just ruined my day. Now I'll have to go watch Vampire Diaries re-runs. Thanks a lot Mole."
"You're welcome Raven. I knew you'd be happier without that stupid ball."

That was fun!
If you want to go check out the rest, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
I hope they escape from that place soon. They're such nice people. FREE THEM DEANA!
