Author’s Notes: Prompt 15: Angry in the 50_darkfics challenge. Written 21 November 2006. Unbetaed. Fifth in the five senses arc. Written as part of a writer’s workshop for an online RPG (role-playing game.)


Harsh, burnt, unsavoury essence. My tongue is surrounded with bile, no sweetness of wine to wash it away. Not even the cool, clear flavour of water to clean my mouth of this last meal. What was it that I feasted upon? The cooks burnt the meat on the outside, left in raw within. It tastes of metal, blood and… seasoned with sorrow and despair. Who gave such a last meal, so unfulfilling and sour? The table was laid for one only, it was not for the soldier to eat. The food you enjoyed was well-prepared, my lord: mine was bitter.

About the Author


Bell Witch

Most of my fanfiction is linked through my livejournal Feed link

Finally an update of my profile. I’m behind on linking fics posted here on my LJ, so these are pretty much my LotR fics. The Harry Potter links are on the LJ below a lot of silly quizzes and memes. For sillier results, my online RPG Faramir takes these quizzes also—in character. Most of his results are better than mine. His journal is faramir_hurin, for those so inclined.

I’ve also written a number of segments for the interactive story linked through this site.

I’ve been writing fanfiction for four or five years and I haven’t progressed into writing for many fandoms yet, which may be a blessing for all of those fandoms I’ve not written for. I don’t really count the online RP as fanfiction, though some would. That adds a few fandoms and a new dimension to LotR, as I now play Sauron in his Annatar persona.

As you can see, I am still not skilled at writing author profiles.
