Alright, here’s Benjamin Dances, Ben’s POV of the romantic park scene in early Battlecry. The standard boiler plate applies: Benjamin swears here more than in the book, it’s not been proofread, and it contains spoilers for Sentinel. Also, I think there’s a line or two different from the final version.
Well, the results of the polls are in, and Ben’s POV of the night in the warehouse was the winner by a wide margin. I’ll post this one first, followed by Benjamin Dances. The excerpt of Artemis will follow.
A word of caution: this short has a lot of swearing in it, since it wasn’t intended for publication. You’re about to see how Benjamin actually talks, especially when he’s angry. Also, this chapter contains major spoilers for Sentinel–if you have not read it, I strongly advise you to wait until you have. (And it contains Beau acting like Beau.)
This is a character exercise I wrote before beginning Mercury to get a feel for Benjamin’s voice. It’s almost identical to the final version of Battlecry, which had some last minute additions (mostly about the lights flickering and the sirens). This document has also not been proofread, so if there’s a typo… *shrugs*
