Post the fifth line from your book! Here’s mine:
Abbie was sitting on a mossy stump, watching bees as they swarmed the petite white blooms of a blackberry bramble, and anticipating the bountiful harvest she’d enjoy in the coming months.

5th line from NaNo WIP ’STEEL’S EARTH’ (didn’t realize this is a paragraph, oh well haha)
Now, any gelatinous being of mostly-non-Newtonian-fluid would assure one that referring to its limbs, or proboscises as some might have, or joint-less appendages, as a paw or other such soft sounding descriptors is preferable to hand or claw, beings of physicality’s of a less-than-solid nature take insult if any word that sounds dense describes any part of their entity. At least this is a deeply, socially fundamentally important truth, stated as such, by some like Consul Reok Forx, who is a researcher for the University Galactic Board of Naming Conventions and Other Such Proper Titles and Pronouns.
There’s nothing special about STEEL’S EARTH on my profile, I’m just really excited about the story compared to my others :)
Fun! 5th Line from The Walls are Closing In
The top, which I cannot see from where I’m standing, even though I stare until my eyes start to burn in the bright sunlight.
Technically my fifth sentence is "Oliver couldn’t remember a time without his."
Which sort of needs context (his what?) so here:
"Fairy-companions weren’t unheard-of. Unusual, but not unheard-of. Rare. Legendary, even.
Oliver couldn’t remember a time without his." :-)
