Fierce

Jeremy F. McLaughlin stared at his toes. They wiggled ferociously. He furrowed his brow in consternation and peered across as the boy sitting two inches in front, facing him. The boy was also wiggling his toes. They were battling.

Who would win the toebattle? No one knew. All bets were off. This is because no one knew how to win a toe battle. There was no contact, no discernable goal, and no appropriate discourse to moderate. One simply wiggled one’s toes.

It was all in the mindgame. Jeremy won. Then he wrote a book about his success and made millions.

  1. Hahaha of course he was toe battling and also the title is perfect.

    In the third sentence, is it supposed to be "at" instead of "as"?
