Six Sentence Sunday #51


Hello, welcome to another #sixsunday. Thanks so much to those who stop by and comment each week. :)
I'm continuing with Keir this week, and Quin is still trying to coax some answers...
“Did you kill someone?”
“They caught me stealing food.”
“Just a thief, then.”
The accusation, however true, stirred his resentment. “What choice is there when you are penniless and starving?”
“True enough, but you did just threaten to kill me...”

    Great dialogue and I can here the resentment and frustration in the voices you have written here. Love it!

    Interesting dynamic between these two. Her "just a thief" seems almost dismissive, then she appears to be trying to make up for it by pointing out he threatened her life.

      Yep, she's trying to figure out how much of a threat he might be.

    Still wondering how she got in there. I may have to buy this one--mind if I use it for Twitter quotes?

      Well, you can download the first chapter from Lyrical Press for free to answer that question.
      And Twitter quotes? I've not heard about that before, but yes you may. :-)

    Love the interplay of dialogue, and how she doesn't let him off the hook so easily.
