50 word /r/fantasywriters challenge: Honey and Lies

 Something I've gotten into recently is completing some writing prompts.  On the /r/fantasywriters subreddit there is an ongoing weekly challenge to write a 50 word (or less) blurb featuring a specific word.  I just chimed in on the "honey" thread with this entry:

The man before Fritz was gaunt; hungry. Fritz worked through his pockets and pulled out a small honey fruit. He held his hand out to the stranger. "Take it."

Timid, the stranger reached out.

Fritz's motion was quick. The strike painless as the stranger collapsed in front of him.

 Another prompt I participated in was "Lie"; my entry:

Lie? Lie! I didn't lie. You lied.

Anger swelled as I fell to my knees before the ghastly visage. A dust cloud rose as my hands braced against the sandy cave floor. Cold air pressed against my skin, and the dampness of the cave settled.

The voice echoed:

"Liar..."

 If this interests you feel free to drop by and leave your own.  New prompts drop on Fridays.
