Being alive isn’t the same as living. Bill was dead.
Bill was born.
Between being born and being dead, he lived for a while. It wasn’t terribly exciting and no one cared much about him one way or the other. He did breathing, eating, some sex. No one cared. Including Bill himself.
Don’t be Bill.

The Knight of the Castle
It was a brief story found hiding between the legend of Sir Gawain and a tome of German lessons- thin and with a nondescript title. Nothing of note, yet it piqued Beatrice’s curiosity. She frowned softly to herself as she read.

DLY: He Who Wizards Does No Dirty Work Ch.1
--
Washing dirty socks was much like washing dirty socks. Foul, unrewarding, and rudimentarily humiliating to a boy who didn’t own any socks. Not that he didn’t have the pocket change for socks, or that he didn’t know where to find socks – he found them frustrating. They caught on his callused feet, ripping on the burrs of skin he has earned from years of running up and down the moor-side doing chores, errands and little fetch quests.
He wore through his socks and his shoes, running up and down the hill – there was no need for them anymore. However, he considered, if he had a chance to meet a ni

I did another 55 word story. Today had a challenge in that the story had to have a beginning, middle and end, but not in the correct order.
No matter how you scramble this one up, it's still the same story. One scramble has a tinge of optimism, if you squint and turn your head sideways.
