Oh, how fun! Imagine a child suddenly speaking another language, out of the blue, like that - that would really be mind-boggling! What a great explanation for something like that happening.
Whoa, I loved that! Your writing is so perfect, and this story is way enjoyable! I love stories like this that are set in present day reality. It makes you think that extraordinary things like this could actually happen! ^_^ I should visit Sunday Scribblings more.
I enjoyed the light-hearted innocence in this piece--Sapphire's voice is engaging, and she drew me straight in to the piece. I especially enjoyed seeing her experience (while not fully understanding) adolescence with Brimstone.
Very thought provoking post, very thought provoking. There ain't nuttin worse than having a freaky ghost as an enemy. Can't harpoon em', can't boom a slingshot through em', not even a cannonball for that matter. It just sails right through em' like a dainty breeze. I had one ghost in my old house down on 53rd that use to try and cover my eyes whenever I was driving or trying to ride my bicycle anywhere. I had to stop driving and bicycling. The only way you can get back at a ghost really is to find out what its favorite foods were when it was alive and then buy a bunch of that crap and eat it all day non-stop driving the little ghost buggy insane cuz thats one thing the old farts don't have- tongues and taste buds!
The cyber wind brought me here today, and wow, am I grateful for that! Going to go through all of your posts now, unless of course, being a ghost myself, something happens and I am elsewhere :)
