130Story: Brace / Chocolate / Boast / Deflate
The rules of 130Story are simple: given a random seed word, write a story in 130 characters.
Brace
A spot of urban fishing behind the dental appliance factory. Orin caught several pairs of false teeth. I netted a brace. @130story

Chocolate
Choose a Twirl. Choose Green & Black's dark organic with 85% cocoa. Choose Lindt. Choose a slab of Dairy Milk. Choose chocolate. @130story

Boast
Boats full of big shots
Bankers, bigwigs, businessmen
Boastful, brash, buoyant

Deflate
I'll let you down, she said. You couldn't, I said. Reaching inside me, she fumbled around and twisted a valve to deflate my heart. @130story
