The Six Word Challenge

So, Friday's here - how did we do?

The words:

Strap
Tick
Pie
Tired
Cabinet
Fate


Illya rubbed his eyes. He was beyond tired and the cabinet wasn’t getting any lighter.

Maybe just a tick more to the left.”

“You just had me moving it a tick to the right.” Still, it was his fate to do as his partner requested. “This is futile, Napoleon.”

“You volunteered.”

“You caught me on an empty stomach.” Illya glanced over at the pie that waited enticingly for them to finish.

“I think that’s perfect.”

“Finally.” There was a tap at the apartment door. “Food’s here. Can you get that? I’m a bit strapped for cash.”

Illya’s response was unprintable.


How about you?
