Last week’s challenge: And, Action!<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

By now, I suspect you know how this works.<\/p>\n

But, just in case?<\/p>\n

You will choose two random numbers.<\/p>\n

(Use a d20 or a random number generator<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Each between 1-20.<\/p>\n

Then, those random numbers go to the items in the columns at the end of this post.<\/p>\n

One for each.<\/p>\n

That earns you your title.<\/p>\n

You might end up with\u00a0Elegant Alleyway<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Or the\u00a0Black-Hearted Eight.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Or the\u00a0Lupine Last Call<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

You can add “The” to the fore of the title, and make the second part plural, if need be.<\/p>\n

And that’s it.<\/p>\n

You’ve got, ohhh, 1500 words this go around.<\/p>\n

Due in one week — by next Friday, noon EST.<\/p>\n

Post at your online space.<\/p>\n
