Cadavre Exquis 1:
I'm going to mess around with the rules a bit. Just write 60 words about any topic (doesn't have to be 60 exact btw, can be under, even just one or two lines) then DM someone the last line. Next person writes 60 words based on that last line, DMs someone theirs', and so on and so forth. Let's just do four people in a group for now. When a group finishes, communicate and send your stuff to the last person. The last one GETS TO TITLE, posts the whole piece. and tags all the collaborators. Last person also gets the say on where paragraphs start and end lmao. I do suggest just DMing some random person - send them the link to this challenge for explanation (hello). A good way to hang out with the prose community in these troubling times. Also this is the first one so it'll probably get a bit messy haha; DM me for any questions or if someone thinks there's a cleaner way to execute it (I'd appreciate it) - we'll add more rules and criteria on the next one if this gets enough traction. Don't think too hard and go wild. Much love.

Part one of four(MariAntoinette, ValiantRaptor47, Voidkin_Killer, Teddybear9979)

@MariAntoinette

Camping is very fun especially when your mommy goes to the store and your daddy is sleeping, and you got the whole campsite to yourself. Mommy said I was supposed to wake daddy up if he slept, but that’s rude, so I don’t. Mommy also told me not to leave food out or else bears will come ’n get you. And “No fire!” Mommy has a lot of rules.

@ValiantRaptor47

It was getting dark, and I had to go to the bathroom. I didn’t want to wake daddy up, so I walked away from the campsite so I didn’t need to worry about making noise. But I got lost. Luckily, I saw a man dragging a large, heavy-looking bag across the ground. Mommy always said to stay away from strangers, but this man looked like he needed help carrying that bag, so I decided to go over and help him.

@Voidkin_Killer

“Do you want help?” I asked, and he spun around fast at my voice. The bag dropped and opened as it fell down. It was a body...a...dead body. I stared at it, and the man proceeded to pull a knife from his pocket.

“Don’t you tell a single person!” He screamed at me.

“I swear I won’t” I replied calmly.

@Teddybear9979

The man watched me carefully, the moonlight lighting his figure. Blood stained his clothes.

“I won’t tell!”

“Okay...” His eyes narrowed. Shoving the body back in the bag and closing it, he asks, “What are you doing out here anyway.”

“I had to use the bathroom... I was lost.”

His eyebrows perked up, “Lost? Where’s your parents?”

“At camp.” I answered.
