Tracing the Outline
For the "chalk" challenge at the discworld100 community on LJ
The Tower of Art was not a popular spot for suicides. It was too high for any audience to get a good view until the last hundred feet, and besides, there was a lot of time to think on the way down.
Nevertheless, every now and then someone took the 500 foot plunge.
Sergeant Detritus laboriously dragged the chalk along the ground.
"Missed a bit Sarge," said Nobby. He pointed several feet away, in several spots. "'E splashed."
Detritus looked at the stub of chalk in his huge hand and then the suicide scene. "We ain't gonna have enough chalk."
