Mary, Millie, and I sat in the shared space as we discussed our next book. I looked at the two of them, "Do you two have any ideas for the next issue?"
They thought for a moment. Mary spoke first, "What if they have a romantic moment behind a school building?"
Millie frowned, "We already had a scene like that."
I nodded, "Yeah, if we repeat ourselves it would get boring. Do you have any ideas Millie?"
Millie spoke unsure of herself, "I don't know... I'm not very creative.."
I nudged her on, "Come on, it won't hurt. Just say anything. This is a safe space."
Her eyes shined dangerously, "What about a graphic murder scene?!"
I blinked and then turned away, "So you two really don't have any ideas?"
Mary pouted, "You're the idea person Seri. Not us."
I sat back and rubbed my temples. I need to come up with an idea... Idea... Idea..
I snapped my fingers, "I got it! I have an idea!"
Mary clapped in excitement, "This is going to be good!"
