Every Friday, writers from around the globe join in writing and sharing a tiny tale in response to a photo prompt posted on Rochelle’s blog. Thanks to Ted Strutz for this week’s image.

You can find our stories below. The tales crafted by other writers who’ve taken part this week can be found here (or you can click the blue frog below!)

Our earlier stories can be found here and on our old blog.

This time, Ron’s taken first shot at the prompt, and Joanna’s created hers to intertwine. Such fun!

Ron’s story ~

Sat in my usual spot with my usual pint; just a bit smarter than usual, my eyes keep looking to the door waiting for a lone woman to walk through . . . that is if she’s remained brave enough to come. But then this is not a usual evening.

First dates!

Sara and I had met on Facebook, a friend of game friend.  Not that either of us were brave enough to post our photos.

Now there she is, offering a welcoming smile, which expands over her face as she approaches.

It’s then that I notice two huge canines!

Joanna’s story ~

He’s at the bar, nursing a glass of rich, amber liquid. Shame; I would’ve enjoyed toying with someone with a sharp mind. I guess the alcohol will dull his pain later.

The woman he knows as Sara is only the latest persona in a very long line. I have been many women, lived many lifetimes. But, oh! this is my best! It’s been so easy to draw in my prey; technology has been a true ally.

I make my way towards him. His eyes brighten, and I smile, restraining the burgeoning growl.

This is going to be so much fun.
