Susan at Stony River hosts this fun theme each Monday, so do pop over and read the others who have signed Mr. Linky. The rules are thus:
Every Monday Susan will post a picture for the subject of your story. Microfiction means the shortest of short stories. Think Aesop's fables, comic strips, or even jokes: complete stories that can be told in under a minute. For this game, the limit is a tweetable 140 characters or fewer, including punctuation and spaces.
Here's today's picture and my contribution.
“Hey Bob what do you think of your new uniform?”
“Not bad, Sir. I like the helmet, shoes and the cloak but trousers would be less draughty!

You Would Feel Some Nasty Breezes in That up on Hadrians Wall!
And back then they were always going commando.
HAHAHA;
Pants would be good for my two soldiers too. Don't know how the Scots do it with their kilts!
Very very good, my new friend!
Keep them coming, you have a natural knack fo this.
I bet they did Tony! LOL
Makes it even chillier SAW!
Welcome Peggy, glad you enjoyed it. :)
It's a DRESS uniform...get it? Ha ha ha
Those uniforms leave plenty of room for individualization.
The poor guy on the left not only has to wear a skirt but tights too!!
Those drafts can be distracting during battle, you know? :)
I wonder if trousers were not practical or maybe not invented yet.
good rendition.
I'm sure trousers would have civilised the Romans :-)
Nicely done.
Very clever South Lakes Mom! LOL
Indeed they do first50 :)
And patterned tights at that Eternally Distracted! :0
Cold knees can be a real distraction Janel ;)
Mmmm I wonder who did invent trousers gregj?
Trouser could have prevented the fall of the Roman empire eh?Anthony? ;)
Nice on a hot day, but on a damp rainy day - not so much.
Fun microfiction, Akelamalu!

natural,
I see many of you talking about the outfit, which is cool...
Happy Monday!
Very enjoyable MM.
mine is up.
lol I can't help but think of Nick Nolte who had an operation to lift up his balls, which he said were sagging. He needed tight balls for his photo shoots lol Things people obsess about hahahahaha.
Lol. The soldier on the left either has lots of tats on his legs or he's wearing leggings...hmmm...different for the 2nd century AD.
You never want it draughty! The link in Mr Linky was wrong but right in Susan's comments box. You should have been directed to My Monday's Twitter.
Cute format, and good job with your response!!
Just don't trust those soldiers they'll kill the king. So glad you stopped by and visited I appreciated your comment and look forward to the next comment. Thanks larry.

Very Nicely done on your First Visit. Yep, Trousers would probably be better. Unless they are part of the Scots Highlanders.
so that's why trousers were invented!
i loved your take, and welcome to the club!
SouthLakesMom's comment is so good there's nothing else left to be said. LOL!
HA! You are truly masterful at short short fiction.
Well, one man's draught is another man's air-conditioning!

Men with nice legs have a civic duty to show them off as much as possible.
(Says me)
LOL
How did guys every fight dressed like that?
Or is that what caused the fights? ;)
I agree Susan ;)
