Soooo I’ve always wanted to bring back Rania’s In 13 thread, it’s too good to be left behind. So I got this idea what if we make a crossover of random writing and in 13?

So here how it goes I’ll start with a random thing and the person below writes a 13 words poem, sentence or whatever you want. Then the person does the same :)

With big blue tails

At the idea.
