The Single Line Story Challenge

So I was tagged for this awhile ago and it looks fun, so let’s dive in 😀

Okaaayyy… let’s see how this goes. I hate writing first lines AND synopsis, and this is like the two together, sooooo XD

Contemporary:

Cars were not supposed to have troubles when she was driving them, let alone when she was alone on the dark, winding, tree-lined back roads.

_{[yes I have often written this story in my head and it needs to be written for real someday]}

Historical:

She was much affected by the thoughtfulness with which he had selected the flowers in the tussy-mussy.

_{[STOPPING HERE IS SO HARD Y’ALL I ALREADY HAVE A SECOND AND A THIRD LINE AND A WHOLE STORY IN FACT]}

Fantasy:

The waving blue deep was full of sirene, and all the richness of flowing hair of every shade; glittering jewelry; and long dresses of shimmering scales, curving around the neck, tapering into a large, gorgeous fin at the bottom, and fitted with short or long sleeves, as the sirena preferred.

_{[yes I love (modest, nonmagical) mermaids and I wanna write something about them someday surprise surprise]}

Mystery:

“You are quite right, Miss Arnold; if it was, as you and your brother can affirm, in his pocket, there is no conceivable way it could have travelled to Devon and appeared in the late Mr. Jamieson’s bag; therefore, the obvious conclusion is that you and your brother were misled by a similar watch, deliberately planted, and the question then remains, by whom and why?”

_{[ok so I may have cheated there but come on XD XD]}

Adventure:

Sword-fights and sixshooter face-offs were very overrated; a sturdy bike, a warm breeze, and a simple countryside was all that a boy needed for an adventure.

_{[seriously we need more adventure stories that are, like, sweet and funny and NOT involving violence—especially the everlasting medieval or western ones]}

And I tag… Eva-Joy, Jenna Terese, Angie Thompson, Kate Willis, Allison Tebo, and whoever else wants to do it 😉

All right, guys, that was actually really hard but also really fun and sure got my creative juices flowing. Which was your favourite??
