This is from author John Leggett: “It is surely possible to tell a good story with no scene, no setting at all, no indication of where we are, just as we might expect to enjoy a play presented on a bare stage. If the characters and narrative are strong enough, they will hold our interest without any background.” This is a bit easier with fanfiction, we know the characters—but the thought of trying to put the characters into a setting without actually describing it was intriguing. Here’s my go. A double-drabble at 200 words plus title.

Have been debating on the similarities between the men of Lancer and the men of Supernatural. Not an original thought, I came across a post a while back. But now I find myself comparing the two. Aside from the fact both sets are brothers (and in Lancer, half-brothers) I'm not seeing a whole lot of sameness. I think it's the time period. Westerns simply do not allow for emoting to the point of one male hugging another, even brothers.

Or was it the television script writing back in the '70's vs today's script writing, regardless of the timeframe set for each show? 

And yet I find myself falling into a pattern of writing the characters as if they were the same. Hmmm.....
