“The tight clothing the girls wore left very little to the imagination. For some reason this disappointed Fitz as he had always thought he had a good imagination. He was only now realising it had been letting him down badly.”
Wayne Tyson, Pride and Perpetration

“What’s that horrible burning smell?” yelled Beth when she regathered her senses.
“I think it’s you,” Fitz yelled over the crashing noise around them.”
Wayne Tyson, Pride and Perpetration

“What the hell is that!” asked Fitz in a hoarse whisper. He had tried a Zebra whisper but they were almost inaudible.”

“Do I have to spell it out? I need to … go.”
