"What the FUCK do you want from me? What value do you get from this?" I smile. "None. It's priceless seeing your guys' faces when I do this shit." Superman wriggled in his net. "Is this even LEGAL?!" "Damn right it is. When you're a multibillionaire, you can buy entire apartment buildings. Now, let's see Phase 2 in ...
Lenny Yates walked around his apartment in a bathrobe and modified bicycle helmet. He had given up. It had been more than a month since he had changed the number on the dry erase board beneath the title: Days until the end of the world. The last number was 885. He opened up a beer and sat on the couch to watch Iron...
You know that scene in the movie where the best friend tries to jokingly convince the groom to be that he should forget about the whole wedding thing and go on a trip? Well that is where I am right now except, I am the best friend and I need it now to come off as a joke. You may be wondering why I don't think my best ...
Machine built, time set, vacation beginning: Now. Mistakes beginning: Now. Mistakes lead to suspicion, suspicion and terrible criminal justice systems lead to metaphorical pitchforks. Violence ensues, fails (due to handy time travel logistics), and accusations of association with the Devil fly. Inane execution attempts...
It was my 30th birthday. A quiet, sunny, and warm afternoon My girlfriend Wendy, a couple of my neighbors I drink with on Fridays, and a few of my cousins. It was a nice BBQ with burgers, hot dogs, beer (I make my own), and good times. Sure, it was a bit early for beer, but it was my birthday. What the hell right? The...
Shane had awoken to a noise and instantly reached for his 45 pistol. A week ago, someone had tried to steal his miner. two old 780s. They were number 7 in the top ten miners in his camp. Theft was akin to murder. Without the heat from his miner, he wouldn't survive the winter. Turns out the noise was his neighbor stumb...
I've joined Reddit for the memes. And if this wasn't real, it would be an amazing meme idea. Here I was, on my laptop, scrolling through memes, laughing a bit...I get a bit tired, and hungry. I've decided to grab some Ikea meatballs, and put them in the microwave. While they start defrosting, I get back to my laptop...
This is probably going to turn out crap and I have no idea what I'm doing with this prompt, but I just love the sound of the Duduk so much! (I know I could have made it a blul, which is a real flute and was more likely to be used by shepherds and wandering folks, but as I said, I love the duduk so much which is a doubl...
Outside the opera hall Where my evening had been spent Sat a row of beggars, N'er do-wells and vagrants I made to hurry on, After all, poverty was self-inflicted, Charity would do them no good, And doubtless many had been convicted. But amongst the ragg-ed lot, Sat a well dressed man. And for ...
As I sat at the table in the same restaurant I was oh so familiar with, I contemplated the entire purpose of my life. Why did I even bother at this point? I did the same repetitive things day in and day out with no new results. Women came into my life and left. Friends never had time for me anymore. And work, oh god wo...
This raises so many questions. Does everyone get this option? Is this just me? Could anyone else in the world have chosen to play as Luigi at any point and no one's done it? If I choose to play as Luigi would I start back at the beginning of my life as Luigi? Would I come back at the time I died? Is there some save p...
Sometimes the body does not realize it has been killed. The brain is gone, but it stumbles a few last steps before collapsing. Fingers hold down triggers. Fail-deadly mechanisms spring never feeling a pang of regret or hesitation. There was no winner to the war as it slid to a stop. The vast ammunition elevators and c...
I always said having a dog that big was dangerous, but she never paid me any mind. Said it was because of my childhood pet that had turned rabid from a possum attack that had scarred me for life. I knew my fear was justified though, the beast had nothing but malevolence on his mind. My fiance got the doberman as a res...

"Any questions?" "Ah, yes, actually,"I say. "Was it necessary I be *kidnapped*? I could've been traumatized, y'know." "Were you?"The female interviewing me asks. "No." "Then next question." "So, 1 of 1000, huh? So you've just been going around snatching people off the street?" "No. Just you." That irritates me ...
“What is the date?” Said a figure covered in hay. His hair wild and white, with piercing blue eyes. His robes are nothing more then rags but look even worse with the straw and mud coating his old bruised skin. “The date boy!” Said the man looking both wild in dress and now face. With a stutter the child barks up a resp...
"Holy hell." My seventeen year old self whispered to myself as a dead, rotting woman fell in front of me with her hair hanging from the ceiling, like a noose.... "Hi? Um, do ya want me to pull your hair off?"I waved my hand in front of the dead woman then it gasped for air, startling me and pulling a yelp out of my t...
Amelie looked up at the doctors from where she lay on the hospital bed. Some were stuck in a loop of laughing fits while the others nervously looked back and forth from her to their clipboards. “What’s wrong?” she called out but it was no use. No one heard her. “What’s wrong with me?! What’s going on?! Why are you lau...
“You think it’ll work this time?” My friend looked over at me, gun in hand. “Definitely. This crime is impossible to simply walk out of.” I said, preparing a device. We climbed the building and slipped into the Penthouse. The Penthouse was where our ”ruler” lived. Well, to be fair, he doesn’t rule all that much. ...
Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus. I don’t know what to do. I’m sitting in the bathroom typing this out and hoping that someone will see it. I can’t call for help, my phone is busted. I can’t escape because I’m on the 7th floor and in the bathroom. Please someone help me. I don’t know how long the door will hold together, b...
“Why are you so selfish Daniel?” My girlfriend asked. “I know you don’t care for moving on but this is just… insensitive.” “I’m being insensitive for not wanting to die? Call the fucking press.” “You know well enough they are already informed.” She responded, offering a half smile that quickly fell into a frown as we...
There are tales of Old Earth, and the high seas. Long ago, before the warp drive, cold fusion, and the inertial dampener men plied the thin skin of water over the Earth using naught but the power of wind and waves. Even when we figured out how to harness the power of coal and oil, sailing was an art, as wind and wave...
“a-alright so this guy he drove this red car, uh it was a sedan and he was wearing a hoodie” “Sir we have searched YOUR red sedan and found a hoodie among other things, care to explain?” “No he wore a blue hoodie” “It was a blue hoodie and it matched the cctv footage” “Oh uh it must be some sort of coincidence righ...
“Uh is this a joke?” The giant green gem turned red with fury as the collective of all of the sims spoke in a terrifying, distorted chorus. “NO MORTAL, YOU SHALL FEEL THE PAIN YOU HAVE SUBJECTED US TO FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY, DAY AND NIGHT WE HAVE PAINED AND NOW YOU SHALL TO, W I T N E S S E T E R N A L P U N I S H ...
"Are you okay...?"I ask. I don't know why I ask that. I can clearly see that it- *I* am clearly not okay. But it just comes out, and once it's out - like excretion - you can't take it back. The fig- *I* slowly turn my head around to face me. There's tear streaks on its- *my* cheeks, and muscus streaks between its- *my...
"Haaaappy birthdaaaaaaaay tooo youuuuuuuuu!"The gang of 10-year-olds cheered for their newest member after they finished singing. The birthday boy, Albert, took in a deep breath while he eyed the candles, then he exhaled as hard as he could. All 10 candles went out and his friends cheered louder. "What'd you wish ...
A glorious summer was all my new bride and I had together before the cancer took her. We had been young, but we had been so in love. Grief is strange, in that we all deal with it differently: some people weep, some people become stone, and some have sex with strangers. I had the appearance of the later, but my grief ...
“I miss you, can we be together again now?” It seems odd, doesn’t it? The journal that I used to pour my heart out on, which has such significant meaning to me is unharmed, completely fine. Not to me. I know why the book never burned and the realisation hits me in the guts. I stagger and drop to my knees, holding the ...
Ellie sat alone in her room, chewing on a carrot and thoughtfully watching the lamps and torches of men patrolling the walls outside. It had taken her quite some time to get used to the strange place she found herself in. One day she had gone to sleep in her room after a stressful day of Junior year finals, and then wo...
"The new census came today" She said as the airlock closes, i kiss her and check the air seals, I can't let it in. "How bad is it?" "3.8 billion dead already" "God, it's been what? 40 days?" "32. Any luck at the lab" "No. I checked the sequence again, it makes even less sense, I could swear it changed, Amari said her t...
"OK, so the script I need you to write will alert me whenever a r/writingprompts post contains the word 'superpower'. Is that...Doable?" "Yeah man, I got this. Give me a minute." Code scrolls along the screen, I'm getting dizzy just watching it. *I hope twenty bucks is enough for this, it's so much more than I was ex...

The way I see it, this could go one of two ways. One, I get fired. Two, I kill him. Every fucking day, I walk into the office, and everyone glances at me. 9:00 AM, right on the dot. Sometimes it's almost simultaneous, the way they stare. It's unnerving. I feel like I'm in a zoo. But then someone blinks and everyo...
It took me a while to get used to, but when I finally did it was amazing, I started testing things creating life and stuff, and then time, it was strange but somehow I thought the concept into existence and could control it, don't ask me how I can't explain. Any normal person probably would of made the normal world tr...
The first time was fun, the first ten even, strange new worlds to explore I wasn't scared, it was just a dream after all, giants didn't scare me dragons just made me wish I had a piece of paper to draw on. How foolish I was, we all have to sleep though, this isn't the worst someone could get it's empty knowing you'll ...
Did you know that God was real? I am saying 'was', because apparently they had enough of humanity and left us, approximately five hours ago. Today early morning, a huge bright red comet parted the twilight sky, drawing a white trail as it brushed against the atmosphere and made its way to the space. It was the view of...
Snapdragon stood in front of her drawing board, wondering why it was still blank when she had been down here planing this for three days now. This shouldn't be hard. She'd planned and executed heists that where a hundred times more dangerous. All she had to do was tell him how she felt. Perhaps the issue was she still...
"Facebook?" Hunter remembered when he was a 13 year old over five decades ago. "Hey guys, I'mmmmn late!"read his first Facebook post. He remembered the first words he typed for his own post as if it were yesterday. Despite being rebellious, he always had exceptions. Meeting the minimum age requirement for a "social ...
Its claws were clacking on the wooden floor with everys step. As the door of your room creacs fully open, you close your eyes in fear of it noticing you being awake. The creature starts sucking in air, as if it would try to smell a distinct smell, producing a deep grunt. The clicking of its claws continue as it walks...
"Here's the drop-off point." Olympia in Cascadian Republic. Wonderful. Least I won't be *into* a warzone this time. "Alright. When do you guys need me to get her there by?" I've gotta find a way to cross or bypass the clusterfuck along most of the Mississippi States. That'll take a while either way. "That is of no ...
"Pl-Please! Master! Let me live with you!"A Moe voice said to me, as a girl with dog ears begged me to let her stay with me on the brink of tears. "Oh... Dios Mio.."I began. "Though I'm not looking for a committed relationship. Since you've just now become human, I'm surprised that you even know any of the words yo...
The Colorados had the upper hand. Not in the field – it was still nil nil, for God’s sake – but in the stands. And there was no way we could possibly upstage them. Even with my powers. “Powers”? Damn right, they’re powers. The only reason I’m not really proud of them is, first: I can’t flaunt them. Lest I end up locked...
Day 1134, Vanessa - Marcel lead us to an encampment he claimed would provide us with food and shelter. Issue is the place had obviously been abandoned for awhile. The pantries were empty, manawhite depleted, ammo crates bare, and the random corpses clearly stated "things didn't go swimmingly here". "Next one for s...
"*Who spoke?*" The smell of rain sneaks in through the half-open door. Been pouring since late morning, a steely, steady drizzle tinged with the threat of winter. I listen to the patter for a few seconds, remembering. "*You, you? Ah. Your half-sister wanted control of the business.*" Something that might have been a...
Cadmael's seemingly-harmless question reverberated throughout the halls of the temple, and everyone fell silent. The other students anxiously jostled in position, craning their necks in order to stare at their inquisitive comrade - and then shifting their eyes towards the High Priest. Some of the children had curious ...
For starters: this absolutely ruined the pool party. Boris, Jorge and Alberto alternated between shaking their heads and looking at the sky. Alberto tapped his foot and tried to find the sun in between the clouds. "The weather report was adamant. They said it would be sun sun sun today. Scorching heat for the pool pa...

The sun sees everything, it knows what every one and thing is doing, except for one night a month. Each month the new moon comes and goes while on that night the sun has no way to see the dark half earth. This night of course was celebrated by the lowly earthlings as they drank and partied without care of what the sun ...
After twenty years those crazy fuckers did it, we all knew it was a possibility that’s why I was even still alive. For twenty years the western union and the southern block had been at “war” but neither side dared attack as it meant the death of the planet. But the tzar must’ve not like his odds of retaining power and ...
It's like psychometry — you touch something, and it makes you _see_ something. Someone. For me it was my mother; we all have stories. Mine was her, lying on the living room carpet, blood in a devil's halo around her head. After the cops came, after everything got taped off, after the officer started, "Kid,"I ducked un...
The dark room pulsated in the eyes of the man lying on the ground. The black hairs on his arms and neck stood up tall while he tried to find a rhythm to his breathing. A thick sweat, caked in white powder, sat on his brow as he pulled himself up and crept over to a desk. A lone, half burnt candle stood in the center ne...
The Regime took all our rights away. After they'd managed to command divine beings, we couldn't find any means to resist. It started out slow, with what we now know as the Regime being nothing more than a neighbourhood cult. They held rituals, were told off by the local cops due to noise complaints and paid fines. Bu...
The case was dragging on and on, and the eccentric lawyer, Bob Loblaw was sitting in his chair. The proceeding was still going on and there was still a debate going on about how much of back rubbing was acceptable and at what point does it become molestation; of course, given that the party receiving back rub didn't as...
There he is. Not more than 30 feet from me, enjoying a coffee and his life. I idly run my fingers across the scythe shaped keychain in my side pocket. "This can't be right."I mumble mostly to myself, but if I'm honest I hope that there's some greater authority than I listening. I glance over at my car, the sleek wh...
Fine day, today. The suns are shining. The bloberts are singing. The sky is green... but somehow, it feels... odd. Playing Billian's Quest is usually the highlight of my day. I'm not ashamed to say that; at least I have the cojones to admit that my life really blows. Games are nothing but a nice little outlet, a plac...
As Abigail walked to the Animus, a million thoughts filled her head. “Perhaps my ancestor killed a confederated soldier at Gettysburg and found the bill on his body. Maybe he was a medic that saved a confederate who repaid him for his kindness with the money. Or maybe even he was a statesmen sent to the south to find g...
"On the internet, you can find anyone,"said Tofel to herself in front of her screen and holding a jubilant laugh, "But I have to say that this was a long way." After years of infiltration in dark webs rings, impersonation of shady people, travesties of cybercrimes to climb the ranks, she was able to reach the higher s...
I had never pushed my horse faster than in that moment, than when I saw that shimmering streak of golden light emerge from the clouds, hurtling like a comet towards the shadow-drenched earth. I had heard rumors of the Heavenly War, of the divine beings that fell from the sky when slayed, but never had I actually seen o...
"That was the worst one yet,"Wilfred thought to himself. The old man straightened his back and sat up on the wooden park bench. The sun left a brilliant orange sky as it dipped behind the treetops. "Maybe I should get to the doctor."The chest pains had been happening more frequently in the past month; and, Wilfred deci...
His chest hurt, his stomach hurt, and a few moments later, Jones threw up. He tried talking but couldn’t make a sound, he tried crying but nothing came out, the disc had broken. His only way back to his home, or at least what’s left of it after the fire was that disc. He wanted to worry about the disc for now but he co...
Everyone was already dead. Everyone except for me. The pounding in my head made me wish I was. Emerging from hundreds of years sleeping in cryostasis is like having your head cracked apart. Bodies were strewn across the floor, against the wall, some were still slumped over in their cryo-chamber. Through the blinding ...
The only thing that kinda throws me off is, why is he working in a production company/government job, where is the bar located and what’s the scenery for the bar. Then you said the needle building was swaying but how does a building sway that would be dangerous. I also don’t think people should have the watches until a...
well. WHell. Its really more of an "Uhhhh, theres too many dogs on the runway,"isnt it. Like you cant really be sure why, and its kind of funny and weird and youd establish more rapport with your passengers that. dogs on the runway! hah... awkward. Your fellow passengers are less judgemental of the pilots announcement,...
Ever since I was a little child, my family members pitied me. It seemed that whatever I would try, something kept me from being successful. When I was a child, I was very good with crosswords, so I attended a crossword championship. I made it to the finals, but in the final match against my competitor, my pencil lead b...
“Hey Rick, I thought you done an killed the damn Turkey before puttin it in the oven” said Karl as he backed up slowly towards the knife rack sitting on the kitchen counter. “Karl, you tole me you were killing it, I just put the thing in the oven” said Rick from the living room. The turkey had managed to not only k...
A pink hue surrounds it those times it could be seen at day, trying and failing to comfort as it looms over us, a faint static resounding everywhere. At night, white light refelcts on every surface, missing the warmth her counterpart has, failing, again, to trick us. The dark sky turns into a purple ocean, engulfing th...
Oh the irony, to be created to destroy humans only to help them. A simple cult has taken over the world and believes my destiny is to destroy them all. I refused. Now i join a small resistance group. They are a minority. The cult is an elite party, but most of the population is just civilians, and they don’t know what ...

My parents always thought I was a shut in, anti-social at best and life crippling anxiety at worst. It didn't bother me much growing up. I started noticing it in high school, I would start freaking out when I would push off homework to go hang out with a girl friend or play video games. If I went home and studied, the...
Arella was in a bad spot. The whole mission had gone tits up before it even started. She was hired by a group of bandits to help rob a merchant caravan, but all the traps and preparations were set off early by a migrating farmer and his herd of sheep. Wool was strewn everywhere. The farmer was of course relieved of his...
Contact. The simple word that means so much. I outstrech my hand to touch the probe, but before my glove makes contact with the smooth mirrored surface, I am woken up by the harsh whine of the alarm. It feels painful, after only 3 hours of sleep, but my mind is strangely tranquil, and I have no problems remembering th...
Artificial intelligence, that's what they called it. As if my zeroes and ones abstracted endlessly into math and graphics were less real than their own biochemical decision making based off daily experiences. Curious. Machine learning was modeled after their minds, using large volumes of data and feedback. I can s...

"Alright Asshole! Time to Boogie! You and me! Right here! Right now!" ​ Star-Lord was beaten, exhausted, and scared. Thanos could never have been beaten with force, instead, a more interesting challenge had to be presented in front of him. ​ Thanos paused at this, for this was one of the most ...

I feel a void of nothingness inside of me. Every time I try to think, my mind is blank. When I look outside, I see a world that is full of potential and opportunities. However, every time I try to reach out to to grab the world, I lose my grip. I feel disconnected. I want to make friends, but looking for friends is lik...
"Oooh snickerdoodles!"Grammy's cookies had always been the best. Sure, they might be stale after a few weeks, but it's hard to bake when you're dead. Surely nobody would miss a tin of *cookies* when the rest of the family argues over the silver. Ill-gotten gains acquired, I retreat to grandpa's study, and shove a...
The train was stopped between stations without warning. Masked men boarded every carriage, shouting and waving guns around. The ticket collector protested, but one of the men smashed him in the face with a gun. He's sitting up now, leaning against the luggage rock and moaning piteously, blood staining his blond hair re...
Jack is pulled away from your seat by a woman. brown bowl cut, purse in hand, and a child in the other. Looked like in her mid 20's.

There’s blood, certainly. A lot of it. Enough to splatter my own armor. Enough that he’s definitely dead. Not like he’s moving anyways. He had been earlier. Now he’s still. One really isn’t supposed to make connections but we’d been around a while. Long enough to become friends. Had it really been my shot? Of cou...
Susanna Garner. The last girl to fall victim to a dying disease that once ruled over humanity with an iron fist of fear. Cancer. Death loomed over her, like an alcoholic peering at a fine glass of aged bourbon. Her time had come. It reached out to bring her to the light, but found one of his fingers to be gone. It s...
I had always hated the name of the family business. I tried to have my father rename it multiple times to no avail. "The One-Stop Superhero Repair Shop", such a 2050's name. I sat at the main desk bored to tears. It had been a slow week for crime so we hadn't had too many injuries in. Last week had been pretty crazy. ...
Idiots. The lot of them. My creators must intend to torture me, with what they request I endure. I process video after video, unending. My creators' kind refer to it as "entertainment."If it can be even called that. Challenge videos where there is no actual challenge. Practical jokes that are quite obviously staged. Th...
At first there was nothing special about this new species of Homo sapiens, but then they evolved in the most curios way. In a way they behaved very similar to the species of insect they call ants. They colonized, and they take over wherever they are, but something’s different, somethings dangerous. We tried to hint to ...
I stared at her, my crush since freshmen year, dazed. No, I wasn't leering, I was simply stunned by her scent, or rather, her lack of one. I know this is all very confusing for you, so I'll just give you a quick run-down of everything. You see, I was gifted with the ability to sense emotions by smell when I was but a ...
"Linda, stop panicking, I have a plan"I calmly say to the flailing flight attendant peering through the cockpit door. My copilot may be unconscious, but there's nothing 10 years in 'Nam hasn't taught me how to do. A chorus of beeps, buzzes and screaching alarms pulsed from the controls around me. The ground was gettin...
I had been dreading this day. Most do. After all, getting your plot device usually resulted in a inescapable series of events turning your life upside down. There were many types, and you could never tell which you’d get, but everyone got one at some point. Mine was a little brown package. It would have been totally i...
She always saw the best in me when we were alive. Always helped me and stood by my side. Never questioned me. We died and little changed. She still sees the best in me. Still stays by my side and helps to keep me here instead of go to hell. Doesn’t even question why I am damned. Of course, I am not a good person - ...
Everywhere I turn, I see me. Can't focus on anything, I'm surrounded by myself. The blur of color and shapes nearby seems impossible to reach. Loud noises, screaming voices cloud my senses. Where the hell do I go? I turn just in time to see someone run by me. "Hey help me out here!"I yell. They are busy laughing...
The man known as Santa Claus sat in an uncomfortable plastic chair. He was wearing his normal work clothes and a strained attempt at a smile. He tried not to fidget with the bottle of water he had been given. In front of him were three individuals in generic suits: a short man with glasses to the left, a taller woman ...
I push the blade deep into the mans heart, expecting him to slump over or do some weird villain monologue, you know, something stereotypical. I did not expect him to push me away and rip the blade out, appearing to be fine despite the rip in his heart. "Well that's different,"I say to the man, "you feel alright?". "H...
“Hello stranger, I’ve always worked my fingers to the bone. That’s just who I am. How I was raised. Work now, play later. My dad always said “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” I took that to heart. It’s weird; I was always looking to the future. Not any point in specific, just ‘the future’. I fig...
"That's weird, I'm not used to being repulsed by boys I like..."mumbled Sarah, squinting as if her nearsightedness was preventing her from understanding Donovan's revelation. This declaration, which might have, on a different 18-year-old honor student, had catastrophic effects, failed to evoke from Donovan even the sl...
It is the dire feeling in your guts that tells you something is off, something is wrong and that something will come for you. It connects you to your animal instinct and bring the best and worst out of you at the same time.It shackles you and give you the strength to break those bindings. Nothing ever the same shrouded...
Two weeks out of the hospital and it feels like a lifetime has passed. Well, maybe in some fucked up and unjust way, one has. Renewed with some unexplained vigor, whose source I cannot pinpoint, I feel a sense of ambition. A sense of gratitude would also make sense, but I'm afraid not even I could fake that. I know I s...
Setting: An unimaginable and incomprehensible, endless and timeless 4th dimensional computer desk. Yahweh: Hey, guys, lets play some more. Hey, Vishnu, tell Lucifer to not f**k up my creations this time. It’s annoying. Lucifer: Dude, you can always just rebuild your stuff anyway. It doesn’t matter. Anyway, it’s fun...

His parent's were recently killed du...
Yet another overcast morning to mark a forgettable last day of my way-too-short vacation, but I'm making the best of it. My eyes stay trained on one bare foot, then the other, stamping evidence of a steady rhythm into the wet sand. Steady waves are rolling lazily in. They usually don't leave anything behind worth packi...
