Drabblerotic A to Z 2015 - Q is for Quartz

[charisstoma]

Our word theme this year is colours, so, we at FB3X are going to write you a drabble (exactly 100 words) every day of the A to Z challenge, based on the alphabetized colours in the table below. We challenge you to get your thinking caps on as well, and be inspired by our 26 words and join us every day, adding your drabbles to this list, or in the comments to the post - we don't mind where you post, we'd just like to see how the muse takes y'all. :)

Anthony hummed, took a glance at James and hummed some more. The velvet box was pretty and soft as only velvet can be. “um … What exactly am I supposed to do with these?” he gestured with the box.

“You hang them from the hoops. The quartz prisms will look lovely on you and we both know of your partiality for purple amethyst,” James answered helpfully.

“I don’t have any hoops. See,” Anthony turned his head to display his earlobes.

“True. Take a look inside the envelope,” James suggested.

Sure enough, an appointment for piercings and not in his ears.

*grins* Read on for a hint of where those piercings are. These came out as a series within a series.

Sorry to spam the alphabet but the storms have done odd things with my phone/internet provider. Usually I lose internet and have static on the phone. Now I've internet and no phone landline at all. There's more rain this week predicted to be severe. In Texas that can mean moderate ping pong ball sized and in severe baseball sized or larger. Winds are what did the damage this time though. And I blame my friendly, pecan loving, neighborhood squirrel who likes to chew phone lines.
