Continue the Story - Possibly?

Hmm, sorry took so long to get back to this, no time to totally lounge in front of the computer lately.

A barren tree's branches rattled as a ravenous bird vacated its bough. This winter had been particularly harsh; those animals foolish enough to not go into hibernation were rightfully suffering. Ice shards from the shaken branches fell to the snow below, leaving craters along side recent imprints of deeply treaded boots. Every few moments the dry wind would howl through the trees, warning those against the cold, and making the lone traveler yearn for the luxury of a roaring fire. Stopping suddenly __ peered into the snow blown distance. Heaving a sigh, (s)he trudged onward. The dim, wavering lights promised warmth as well as company.

I stole from your first intro. I thought I had some drive to write something, but I find myself tired.

This is a little more... conducive to having a plot, see? sorta... maybe I'm hallucinating, feels weird. Oh wait, today is sunday huh.... damn.

Well, what does that make you think?

in terms of what I was originally thinking, I wanted to compose something with you like a 'continue the story' type thing. it’s a lot easier, and can surprisingly produce very interesting material.

I've done it with other, and multiple other people and persons. I think I could dig up some examples.

With the threads of thoughts bound together, it forms the cylindrical core of a possible story elaboratable into a gander novel of sorts. I think. maybe.

There's potential.

so a continue the story would be more like... one sentencers.

You say a sentence, just one, then stop.

I take the next sentence, lead it or twist it to whatever I feel like at the moment. Then your turn

This goes on and on until someone decides to (try and) end it, and with the eventual others concession, generally does.

Pretty free, just the whole part about LOGISTICAL sense (arcana and the like are totally in bounds, as long as there is some description), not necessarily FEASIBLE (things can happen in stories that wouldn't happen in our own boring mundane lives, duhh).
