A Calm Way to Release Anger

Okay, introduce and kill your character in one sentence. If you're just sick of those rejections, take your anger out on your innocent characters. Me first!

Enali was a unicorn of pure innocence, but she found herself crushed underneath a one ton boulder, blood oozing from underneath the earthen mass.

Nick found himself horribly mangled by a wood chipper.

You're right, I haven't even QUERIED yet, but that DOES feel really good.

Let me try another...

Krum was dipped in brown gravy and thrown into a room with a wolverine that was high on angel dust. (RIP George)

This isn't really TIO material. Please read "Differences between TIO and OP"

If you're blowing off steam about general life stuff, that goes in Office Party, too. Or if you're worried about a member, or there's something horrible in the news, etc. I know it may feel kind of funny posting serious things in "Office Party," but that is still the appropriate place for it.
Underline is mine - 'something [horrible] in the news' belongs on the Politics and Current Events board. This particular thread is more appropriate to the Writing Exercises, Prompts, and Games forum.

Thank you.

Moving to Writing Exercises, Prompts, and Games. Please fasten your seatbelts, and return your seatbacks and tray tables to their upright, locked positions.
