Justice League Pornography Story: Diminished to Single Sentences Chapter Two
This set was originally gonna be Batman, but the more I looked over the prompts, the less of him I saw in them and the more I saw of Diana, so… there ya go. My Wonder Woman voice kinda… sucks at the moment due to total under use, but I guess this is as good a practise as any.
Oh, by the way: To that lovely person who was nice enough to review the last chapter but did so anonymously. Youre half right: that the quote was used in Harry Potter, but the original quote if biblical in nature (1 Cor. 15:26). Almost everything is a quote of something else these days…
Wonder Woman.
001. Finish: She draws a breath and ends the battle before its even begun.
002. Nothing: Eternal Life means little to her if her long existence cant serve a purpose.

008. Kiss: The kiss was an unfair distraction, but fortunately Diana has the opportunity to get her own back later.
009. Smile: Getting the bus to town at six in the morning, arriving just in time to hit the rush hour commuters: three dollars; buying an umbrella from the vender because it started pouring on your stall unexpectedly: eight dollars; Being smiled at by a goddess when you give her directions to Central City: priceless.
010. Imagine: Diana does not need to imagine the phenomenal power of the heavens; she is on first name terms with many of its inhabitants.

12. Noise: The curse she whispers is so quiet and heartfelt that nobody not even Wally dares to comment on it.
13. Celebrate: Thank you, Clark, this was a great surpri… you know, I dont think Im entirely certain how old I am now.
014. Morgue: Her first visit to the burial place alarms her Metropolis is nothing like Thymiscria, which has its beauty to guide the dead into the afterlife.

031. Direction: Fact of the Day: Mans world has some rather ridiculous ideas about how to design maps.
