am back

and I demand thine literary skill once more

We will be making :sparkles:art​:sparkles:

Rules

  1. This time we will be sticking to one story
  2. Be outlandish and silly, but still a complete thought.
  3. Genre or style doesn’t matter, just get silly with it.
  4. Two sentences, and for the love of god, punctuate, or I will cry :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
  5. Oh and please make sure there’s some semblance of continuity :moai:

Methinks that’s about it for the rules


WEEEE STORY TIME :ogre:

Summary by a caveman:
James wants freedom, James wants travel. James can’t travel: James is apple. Woo tornado go burr. James gets dumb idea: ride tornado?.

James gets rescued by Johnny Appleseed. James is a free apple. But James is scared. James now “liberated” but what does that mean for James?

Other apple “liberated” but James no hear from other apple (scary?). Very sad :(

Non-caveman recreation.

James yearns for freedom, he pines for the wind on his skin and the grass against his fingertips as he frolics through the fields. But he was stuck in his body, forced to be sedentary… James is an apple. He was expected to settle down in the grove just like his ancestors did, but he had greater plans. James wanted to travel.

Cradled in the branches of the apple tree, daydreaming about the field, a violent tornado tore through the village. Maddened by monotony of the grove, the sickening distance of the field, James was driven to reckless. Despite all the obvious signs of death and dismemberment, James wished that tornado would head straight for him.

Just as the tornado was swiftly closing the distance, it was as if the sun itself had parted the furious winds and extended a hand towards James. Now on horseback, nestled safely under a hat, James was rescued James from the clutches of certain death by none other than Johnny Appleseed. James was a free apple.

James’ sweet taste of freedom quickly soured. He remembered his old friend— a handsome honeycrisp, dappled with the colors of autumn trees— who was chosen to be “liberated.” Though he never truly understood what it truly meant, all he knew was that his friend would never be seen or heard from again.

That irked James; he may have gotten what he wished for, but what would happen to him? He was afraid that he might truly learn what the others meant by “Liberation”

Due to his fear, he decided to eat crickets. Why? Nobody knows.

As he savored the crickets, he finally took a look at his human. He wore a pan on his head, and donned simple clothes—a worn leather vest featuring an embroidered apple, a flowy linen shirt, and some penny loafers.

Life with good ol’ Johnny was pleasant; James was carefully bathed every morning, he was brought along to help do chores in the orchard during the day, and every night Johnny read to him stories about the great apples of the past, but through all this James felt empty. He felt a longing deep within his core to explore and discover things that ordinary apples were never shown, although if it was for better or worse that these secrets were kept untold James did not pause to consider.

Whether he wanted to or not, James was about to learn the dark truth about humanity’s relationship with apples. One day, he was placed on the kitchen counter next to a stack of books, and one of them was conveniently turned to the page on how to make pie crust, and all the wonderful types of pies you could use it for…

Curious, James begins to read the page. He reads and reads until he sees a recipe for APPLE PIE!

But the recipe called for tomato soup, and the closest store was 10 miles south! That was way to far for him to walk and boy, he was HUNGRY.

Remembering the time Jonny had taken him to get his driver’s permit, he rushed to the camry outside and slammed on the gas pedal. James must arrive at the store before it closed.

James sat there, shocked still and shuddering from the sheer bedlam that had met him from all directions. He was stuck and upset and couldn’t think of what to do in such stunning disquiet, until he saw a jaded woman in cashier clothing carrying a basket of apples which had lost their glossy sheen about to toss them away into the dumpster at the back of the market…

(also p.s i was born on Johnny Appleseed day yayyyyy)

He rolled towards her foot, and she tripped on him, sending apples flying everywhere. The freed apples rolled away unscathed, but James now had a huge gash on the side of his head, and the street was soaked with apple juice.

His vision blurred, and streaks of red whirred past him… was it… no wait, the apples were escaping! He felt a tug in his chest, a sudden urge to escape with the outlaws, but just as he was about to join the flurry of apples, his eyes focused on something to beautiful to be ignored…

He saw lights in the sky, and thought to himself how it could be that the sun which had helped him grow was reflected so many times. He had heard stories of goats in the sky but all he saw was polka dots as he desperately yanked at his branch

But as his vision cleared, he could now see it was Jonny appleseed. He picked up James gently and asked, “What happened?”
