Two people are having a conversation. They appear to be discussing a bottle of wine (or a wine bottle), but there is a subtext. What is really going on? Is one trying to tell the other they are fat, having an affair, one is trying to break up with the other? If you chose to participate, submit your work to the group and then come back here and link it below. This will make it easier for the hosts and others in the group to quickly find, and connect the story to the exercise that initiated it. IN ADDITION PLEASE NOTE: in the description field or tag the work in such a way that the hosts can clearly see that your work is a direct result of this exercise. |

Are they drinking the wine? Or simply discussing at as you already wrote? Just wondering….converations while drinking will often be more frank and quite possibly stupid than the sober ones! Thanks! K. Helgesen |

Karen, They could be doing either. They could be discussing the bottle itself or its contents. Whether they are drinking said contents is also up to you, but would certainly add to the tone the conversation would take for as you said, it may make them more “frank”. |
