There are so many talented writers in this community. So much artistry, so much care, so many people who put their hearts and souls into their stories. And when I look at all those short stories, those novels, those epics and vignettes, at the beautiful acts of creativity that made me laugh and cry, I can’t help but think…

What if there was some way to get all those writers to make stories about the things I want?

I'm not going to be able to log into FiMFic for the next few days, and will probably be missing the Jinglemas deadline. So, a few days early, here's my gift for the lovely Axxuy. They wanted a story about Gallus and Smolder, and they got one!

No refunds.

There are four men in the trading post when Silf walks in. Let us call the first three Club, Pistol, and Shotgun. These labels are not their names, but they convey the men’s purpose. The hour is very late, past 2 AM. Club is drunk, Pistol is playing solitaire on a little table, Shotgun is half-asleep, his weapon across his lap.
