130Story: Eagle / Freeze / Table / Throw / Brain
The rules of 130Story are simple: given a random seed word, write a story in 130 characters.
Eagle
Ten long years. Solar power failed. Battery at 2%. Aerial capability nil. One tinny onboard speaker. "Repeat. Beagle has landed." @130story

Freeze
Sun's out. Park down by the front. Stroll and a Slushy. Then it hits, the sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia. You what? Brain freeze. @130story

Table
Clamped goals to each end of the dining table and dug in sofa for 2p players and a 1p ball. Dulls v Shinies. Let's shove ha'penny! @130story

Throw
Mid 1970s, Felixstowe beach. Throwing a stone, it misses the sea and hits my mother's head. Summer holiday fun in A&E. Sorry, mum. @130story

Brain
Aldo's go. We've all done it. Round to The Pink Lotus. Ask for fried monkey brain. Drives her mad, the lady. He's taking his time. @130story
