Title: Trickster's Pawn 28 Rating: PG Length: 200 words Competitor: Owen Round/Fight: 4 (Final!) Summary: PG, 200 words. Owen and Warric talk.
Warric was getting ready for bed when he heard the knock on his door. It was his older sister – or was that brother? “Wen,” he said, “Come in. How did it go?”
“Father came around,” Wen said, closing the door behind him. “I'm lucky. I'm not sure about Lady Andrea – but I don't care. I'll be with the riders, anyway.” He grinned at his brother. “And your position's safe, little brother. In the eyes of the crown, I'll always be a daughter of Jesslaw.”
“Is that why you're so glum?”
“No, that's all right.” Wen sighed, hair falling into his face. “Do you know a good barber? I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow.”
“Wen. Owen.”
He rubbed his cheeks with his hands. “Kel and I are through.”
“What?” Warric said. “But you're crazy about each other.”
Owen shrugged. “She's a squire, I'm a rider... we just can't see it working.” He looked down, boot tracing a line on the floor. “Can I stay here tonight? I can't see going back to the barracks...”
Warric agreed without hesitation. “Of course. You're my brother.”
