Is this a writing/drawing challenge for Sapphic September 2024, because I didn't see any, and my brain just waterfalled this all over a page?
It can be if you would like it to be.
No pressure, like, at all.
But if you do, maybe tag your works with Sapphtember so people can discover them?
Sapphtember 01: Girls who have words
"Glitz," John Shift says wearily.
"IT WASN'T EVEN ME." Glitz glowers at him, arms folded.
"It's the puppygirl, Glitz," John says. "Of course it's you."
"IT FUCKING WASN'T ME." She takes a deep breath, makes an effort to lower her voice. "Some beat cop tried to talk to her because she was growling at people's kids in a dog park, okay? She ran, they called it in, got an ID, punted it over to us. What did you want me to do?"
He blows out a breath, pats her shoulder. "Yeah. Yeah, okay. How are you doing?"
She gives him a narrow look.
"She did traumatically bite you that one time." He gives her a big, supportive smile.
"Fuck you, John."
"Processed her intake yet?"
"Why don't you? Since she traumatically bit me, that one time."
He peers in through the window in the holding room door. Podenco, in handcuffs, is sulking under the table.
"...She's just barking, isn't she."
She shoves the clipboard at him. "Have fun with that!"
