"How could you?" she seethed. "Let...

A green-haired woman suddenly inserted herself into their conversational dabbling, interjecting with rather...
Typically, I simply eat a bowl of granola--preferably, homemade.
On weekends, I might prepare a more elaborate meal. It can range from omelets to crêpes, muffins to stir-fry of some variety. It is dependent on mood, I suppose.
Ann's boots shunted into the sand as she launched towards the campsite. Black hair streaming in her draft, she clomped between tents and trumpeted, "Sandstorm! Everyone, hurry and grab your vital tools and then get inside the plane! Right now!"
Rounding the stakes of the medical care shelter...
Ann made herself comfortable in the backseat of the limousine, quickly accustoming herself to the luxurious accommodations. She pulled at her hair briefly to confirm that it would retain its flow, and made sure that her necklace pendant was tucked beneath the neck of her dress. She then turned...
Ann Tickwittee eyed her reflection as she stroked her hair with a curling iron, applying fluid waves to her normally straightened threads. It signified an occasion of notable importance, as she rarely went to such pains to fix her black locks in this particularly elegant manner. Once satisfied...
(This post will read IC, but please keep this knowledge strictly OOC.)
Typically, I floss and brush my teeth following dinner and soak my hair so I can shape it without too much hassle in the morning. Then I dress in my nightclothes: silk boy shorts/boxers and a sleeveless Hello Kitty top. I...
Ann shook her head with minimal motion as she responded. "No, I don't believe we've had the opportunity, unless you have frequented the museums of Cairo or San Jose." She offered a repressed smile, allowing her eyes to momentarily flit around the room in an attempt to locate one of the agents...
Ann was quite aware of the less-than-professional way the pilot and commentator had operated on the dead airplane, though word had somehow eluded her when it came to the subject of the looted dog tag. Nevertheless, she was secretly excited to investigate the interior of the aircraft. Every...
