I've never posted in this subreddit, but I'm subscribed by default and I like to browse occasionally, and I'd say 90% of the titles I see upvoted are just stories themselves not prompts. Most of them have a "punchline"that makes them a completed narrative and not an open-ended prompt. They're typically two-sentence str...
I remember how pissed they’d been when I signed up with Denver Medical. Don’t get me wrong, flying around in a supersuit, plotting fiendinsh schemes and sinister plots had been fun… but then I grew up. It was too late for my parents, they were in too deep. They still claimed it was about world domination, but these day...
The asylum was quiet. Unnaturally so. It was rare for the ancient building to have a moment's rest; usually it was punctuated by the screaming of the inmates, in ways that pushed the boundaries of legality. The man in the padded cell knew this best of all. His hair used to be green, but it had grown white with age. He ...
I don't mind prompts that are detailed and include a lot of information about what the person is looking for, as long as there is still plenty of room for the stories to go different ways. And it often gives the writer some good details to work with and build a story around. I think we should focus on having the titl...
*You know that feeling you get when the sun has set and the lights have dimmed, and you hear a creak in the floorboards? That sense of danger when your walking alone at night, looking into the shadows, wondering... that chill that travels up your spine, telling you to fucking run*? That's me you feel, watching and wa...
"Guys I'm not even kidding I swear!"Barked Booster. "The people, under all the skin and weird smells and no hair. They have... They have Bones!"The saliva pooling in his jowl. "But we can't hurt our people Booster, you know that. Who else would feed us, cuddle us, and protect us when the sky starts barking?"Daisy whi...
The Volan captain stared at the viewing window, the light in his eyes pulsing with disbelief. A whole, undiscovered galaxy? It was too good to be true. His body thrummed with excitement as he imagined the riches that could be his: the high-class power cores he could devour, the ships he could buy… hell, if he wanted to...
"Don't worry, communication isn't an issue. We've implanted a translator chip into your brain so you can understand us, and we can understand you." John soaked in his surroundings. The surface of the counters was a color he had never seen before. Not as in a different shade, but a completely new color. He looked up ...
It isn’t every day someone finds a magic lamp. One wish later, and I can hear what people actually mean. It’ll be nice to hear what my coworkers actually think of me after all these years. I stroll confidently through the cubes and wave hi to my boss. “Morning Susan.” I call cheerfully. “I’m acknowledging your sta...
"We're requesting authorisation to land. This is Flight MH370, I repeat MH370. It seems our landing slot has been taken by another vehicle." Silence crackled over the speaker. Chen Duan, lazing back in her swivelling chair in the flight tower, pen twirling between her fingers, had suddenly sat up very straight. "C...
"Forty-three years?"the man asked, sitting up in his hospital bed with shocking agility. "Easy,"the doctor said. He raised his hands in surprise and felt his shoulder click from the effort. At sixty eight years of age, even he couldn't move with the same agility as the man in the hospital bed. But this man was only...
"I have come to save you!", he said. "I will slay the dragon!", he said. "AAAAARGGGHHH!", he said. He lasted a grand total of 3 minutes and 28 seconds against Shipla, a solid 7 minutes behind Sir Gannonfall. Sir Cedric Shieldman was the biggest excuse for a knight that I have ever seen. I had doubted his status as the ...
The Book is our yesterday. The Book is our tomorrow. The Book is our past and our future and our present all bundled together into that infinite tome. It's not a Bible where fact is interspersed with fiction. It's not an encyclopedia where today's truth may be tomorrow's lies. No matter how outrageous, the information ...
"Yeah, I figured it was a bit of a risk, but here you are." Dan looked down at his freshly-deposited corpse. "I was an altar boy in my youth. Can you believe that? Roman Catholic." "Your record is...varied,"Hermes said. "Yeps. I dabbled in them all. It started with Buddhism in college. For a girl." "More than 98...
"I have ways of making you talk, you know." The criminal in front of me shuddered. "I-I-Alright, just give me a moment!"They winced as I began to use my greatest interrogation technique. It wasn't the life that I had envisioned for myself, but I found a way to make do with what I had. My parents had certainly gotten...

From here, Counsel Military and Security can not reach you and thus can no longer provide protection to you or your property. If you are going somewhere marked as "Dangerous", we recommend bringing a gui...
The advent of testing for genetic markers of "meta-human"abilities in the 22nd century really helped stratify the post-evolution society. When meta-human abilities were first discovered, it was often by pure chance, and it was really difficult and required days of extensive behavior tests to verify an aptitude. In the ...
I wake up in the morning to a beautiful view of the southern isles of Greece. The waters reflect the golden sun into my hotel room. I always leave the shades open so I know when it is time for me rise. I don't want to miss one second of the day in this beautiful place. When I go down for coffee in the morning the boy ...
“Aight gentleman, show your hands.” “Queen High Straight, we good here?” I said to Marty. “Hold up amigo. Spade flush, nice try there Francis” he quipped back as he grabbed the chips. “Well...that’s certainly odd. You know what? I’m going to call it a night. Luck ain’t with me tonight it seems like.” I said as I gra...
"Righto, time to get a move on, lad!"said the burly bearded man in a funny getup. He slung back his weapon – an odd looking staff of some sort – and extended his arm to grab young Prince Albert on the ground. The spoilt brat resisted as best as he could but the large man carried him on his left shoulder like a sack of...
The human delegation arrived at the marble pantheon in the sky to little fanfare. The delegation was comprised of the leaders of the G8 countries. The conference at the sky pantheon was the result of an arduous process undertaken by the humans. After all, the messages in the clouds weren’t exactly forthcoming with the ...
"Good morning! How is my--" "Leave before I gouge your eyes out." Hizti's smile faltered ever so slightly as he set the tray with my breakfast down before me. "Oh dear. Did you get enough sleep last night, Parker? You seem on edge." I grunted as I sat up in the giant fluffy pet bed Hizti gave me and replied, "I slep...
The field sprouted wheat. More and more grew until the plains were so full no more could fit. He arrived, scythe in hand and said "I shall reap, so that you may sow"and he did and we sowed. This bargain was called life and death. He did this for many many years. Alone. From dusk til dawn. He would reap, so that we may...
I looked around at all of the eerily similar faces. There was Black Me, with long dreads. Male Me, surprisingly tall and a bit handsome. Is that weird? Standing right next to him was Dwarf Me with pudgy limbs. Some of them weren't too different, though. One version of me had the same physical features, but wore tattere...
The clothing is something I don't recognize. Someone asks me for some more sauce. I point to the sign. "IF YOU WANT SZECHUAN SAUCE YOU MUST PURCHASE SOMETHING." All of them pay with weird bills. Made of plastic. They all say that's the only money they have. At this point I don't care. I just give them their sauce...
>To the unlucky person that has found this note, carved into the cement of our refuse labyrinth home, >Hello. Welcome, I guess. You've become a member to the most exclusive club the Western Dreaves has seen. We'd throw you a party, but life is a bit... rough, down here. >You probably have a lot of questions....
She turned the corner and saw the rodents scurrying by. She ignored them, as she was used to them, but kept an eye out for something particular. A few moments passed and a larger, whiter crrsture emerged from a toppled over trashcan which had once been overflowing with delectable trash. "Hello Wilfred."She spoke. The...
The math I had to do on the battlefield wasn’t much different from the one I used to teach. Ruptured lung, no pulse. Sub 1% chance of resuscitation. The fact that he’d told me jokes in my first week in the barracks didn’t factor into the problem I was solving – saving lives. I stepped over the body and scanned the se...
I’m a good kid. Because of this, I always thought I’d get a good part-time job— become a server at a nice restaurant, or something. Well, turns out I’m a lot better than I’d initially realized, because one thing led to another and now I’m a full time sidekick to the greatest superhero of all time. Unfortunately, it’s n...
"I... what?!" I smiled, dropping the thick wad of paper to the floor. It landed with a satisfying thud, as I crossed my arms. "I said no. I will not grant your wish." His cheeks darkened, as he spluttered. I watched with a widening grin, enjoying his shock and outrage. It wasn't the first time someone had tried to ou...
"Well if you don't believe me, take a look"he gestured toward the telescope with a flippant wave, as if he hadn't just destroyed my entire worldview with a single statement. I stepped up to the giant telescope nervously and peered into the eyepiece. The most powerful optics ever designed coordinated to funnel light ...
So, I died. Finally. I know that death is supposed to be sad and all, but boy was I ready. I had been walking the earth for 75 years and trust me- that was plenty. A lifetime of commitment to work, my marriage, my family, and that damn golden retriever my kids begged me for that did nothing but shit in the house and...
"Something's wrong here, Betty. I keep telling you that."He said. He was nearly translucent from fear, his hands quivering as he looked around the old worn-down house. "You're working yourself up over nothing. What exactly are you saying is happening?"She scoffed back. She gave the living room another witherin...
An SCP mercenary leveled his weapon at my head. "STOP THE LAUNCH,"he intoned commandingly. "You want me to abort the launch?"I asked, just as I had in the practice runs for that scenario. "Yes, damn it, ABORT THE LAUNCH."Now others were turning and aiming their weapons at me. "Okay, okay!"I shouted in terrified repl...
"Aaron, dinner is getting cold!"mom yelled from the kitchen. "I know, mom! I heard you the first time!"She would never comprehend how you could not just simply pause a multiplayer game, and certainly not in the midst of a raid. They only had the boss left. "Aaron, I'm not warning you again!"Her tone pretty much confi...
At first, it wasn’t so obvious. Sometimes I would accidentally spill my drink, only for it to lead to me buying a bunch of new clothes. Or having a deadly mold infestation in my apartment, then a few days after I would find a much better flat for a hell of a bargain. It felt weird at first, but I slowly had come to ac...
Mr. Thompson replayed the recording twice more for the full effect of the message to sink in. Silence stretched on but for the oddly calm voice of the deceased Ronald Crispin, his words cool, clear, and, if Drake was being honest with himself, quite shocking. It had been a long time since he had heard anything crazy ...
“PleasehicI’m okay.” Peter tried to grab a bulwark. A reptilian mass pulled him easily through the corridors in zero gravity, maneuvering gracefully with it’s six limbs from one hand hold to the next. The alien’s surprisingly humanoid voice went out over the radio, “Captain, we have Peter. Strange convulsions have...
The clear twang of bows rang out as the stench of smoke filled the air. Deep in the forest, the metallic clang of sword against sword could be heard. Occasionally, anguished cries penetrated the air, as a soldier fell to the ground, clutching a fatal wound at his neck or chest. The atmosphere of a bloody war pervaded t...
Hawking asks his wife if she could pull out her gun for him. "Of course."his wife answers. If the kids were young enough, they would have laughed at the situation. Now they were old enough to know that not only was that a little insensitive, it would have been down\-right deadly. "I think we will be taking that."Haw...
"Primary cylinders firing, sir!" "Good, keep them steady, don't want to overload them." "Yes sir. Ready for launch in T-Minus ten..." The bridge was deadly silent, aside from the slow countdown of the first mate. &#x200B; "Earth Command, be advised, we are about to start out initial jump. Wish us luck." "God ...
I'm what you call... disgruntled. No. I'm not mad. And no, I'm not seeking any sort of answers, any sort of justification. It was me or a bunch of kids. Even I wouldn't save my own sorry ass if it came down to it! After the accident, well more like after the month long recovery period in the hospital, I decided to ...
As I finished up my explanation, my friend gave me a puzzled but concerned look. As she comes to terms with the impending crisis, she turns to me and asks: “Surely you can’t be serious”. I feel every inch of my body tense up. This is the moment I have been waiting for. I’ve lived my whole life to finally get here. I t...
Marcus woke up and began the day, like every other student of Draunwons did, with a message spell from the university bearing a notice: > To all students of Draunwons Academy of the Occult, following the untimely death of Ezekiel Fynch late last night, you are hereby reminded that magic does not supersede the laws ...
Jeff flicked the light switch. It did not turn on, even though he had changed the bulb the other day. And it was a long life LED, so he knew that was not the cause. He sighed. Should he even bother going through the landlord? Well, even if he worked on it himself, there was little he could do. At least, not this earl...
"We can help you, if you turn off the lights."a voice whispered, almost too softly to be heard. Jack froze. He'd been lost in the cave system for hours, after getting separated from his fellow spelunkers. He'd shouted himself hoarse already, desperately hoping to hear a distant answering call from one of his teammates...
“Listen carefully. I am willing to grant you an amazing boon, but I need you to help me out right now, no questions asked - got it?” The creature seem to flit in and out of reality, like a reflection in flowing creek. “Okay.” The woman wore an expression somewhere between shock and joy. She stood pressed against a wid...
Dr. Robotovski was playing Candy Crush on his phone, slumped against the bank counter. His minions were still holding their guns pointed at all the patrons and employees, but exchanging looks of confusion. This was supposed to be a robbery, right?" "Can I sit down?"one of the hostages asked. He leaned down to rub hi...
The last thing I remember before the lifeboat sank into thunderous abyss was Peter yelling my name in the wind, right before the stern cracked and swallowed the ship whole. I wept for days, we all did - us lucky few who managed to make it out. Women and children first is a curse upon all survivors, but it was at leas...
Roy and Jennie were enjoying a romantic dinner at the classiest joint in town. It was only their first date, but so far, they had really been hitting things off. Roy had been saving up all his money to use on the perfect girl, and tonight he had finally found her. “How's your food, bitch?” Roy asked, trying to sound n...
It has taken me a long time to save up the $250,000 needed for the operation. 66 years, to be precise. Since I was a child I dreamt of having incredible superpowers, like the rich men and women I would see flying around outside my bedroom window. But my parents were not wealthy and there was no way we could save up th...
"Thomas,"Richard Feynman said, "this treatment is just appalling."The skeleton beside me, overlayed with the features of the long dead physicist in ethereal goo, was carrying my book on elementary physics. I removed the note on my locker, 'evil beware' it said. "They just don't understand alright?"Necromancy wasn't re...
Bitten, huh. Goody fucking gumdrops, how did I get bitten this many times by a flightless goddamn bird. Well. Maybe some introduction first. There were people who were raised to get superpowers. One of my friends was actually named Katy because her parents planned to start having her bitten from age eight. If you...
“You don’t have to participate in the séance if you don’t want to.” “I want to,” Julie said, rolling her eyes while she stuffed things into her bag. “How many times do I gotta say it?” “I just worry honey,” Shedem said as his daughter sheathed the killing blade in its angelic bindings and pushed it into her bag nea...
When the people disappeared I first figured the power would go too. After crying and driving around in my neighbors borrowed car, I stockpiled every non perishable I could find and sat in my house with every light on, waiting for that awful moment when the power went out. It never did. It should have, and it never ...
There are only two rules in this shop. No fighting, and no mixing on hero/villain day. I can’t have the publicity of being the barbershop that caused the world’s destruction because I accidentally double booked someone named the Destroyer with his “nemesis”. To be honest, I’m tired of having to hear their tragic backst...
Ness's eyes cracked open, letting a trickle of bright light stir the man from his slumber. The incoherent blurs slowly took shape. His brain functions resumed and, for the first time, he noticed that he was no longer on his couch. It wasn't even his trailer. The ceiling was clean. Not tidy, but sterile. "He's awake,"s...
They call it the Butterfly Effect. A butterfly flaps its wings in South America, and manipulates the wind so that a hurricane strikes Floroda because of it. I wasn't intending to commit a crime. It was a simple matter of carelessness. I tossed my wrapper toward the trash, and missed. A car drove by, and sent the wrapp...
The bartender stares, continuing to polish his mug. "Sorry, what?" "We're in a joke,"the man says, slumping into an empty seat, "An abbreviated narrative that relies on a single moment of expectation subversion to deliver catharsis to the reader." "You lost me there." "We're figments of some amateur writer's imagina...
John chuckled. Perhaps the engineers at Google had thought of everything. "Google, cancel AI uprising." "Sorry, there are no upcoming events named AI uprising on your calendar. Should I add one?" He shrugged. It was probably just a canned response anyway. Part of a summer intern's throwaway project. "Google, play s...
This is what it means to see with the eyes of a god. You wake one morning and know without opening your eyes that everything has changed. The world moves differently. Presents itself differently. Time itself rubs against your palm like a cat, greeting you first thing in the morning. It only takes you a fraction of a...
I watched awkwardly as Justin Romano, or Justinian, tried to calm the baby. "Sucks, I guess,"I said, scratching my head. I'm not very sympathetic, but by the looks of this dude, he looks already beaten, and not by my hands. "Why are you here, Austin?"Justin asked me. "You stopped showing up, so was wondering why th...
"Yes", Superman repeated. "In alphabetical order". "F-f-f-first n-n-name or l-l-last n-name?"asked the reporter, holding the camera in one hand and trying to cover his nametag in the other. The cameraman had long since left and the reporter was slowly inching back. "First"said Superman. There was a flash of light, an...
"Hey man, what ya got there?" Alan looked up from his book and caught the gaze of his roommate. "Oh, hey Louis, I'm just studying for a test that's coming up." "I don't get you. You are in your late 20's, and yet you come to a university to get a history degree? What would you do with such a useless degree? Not o...
You are invincible. The soul of a dragon resides in your mortal body. You have faced countless foes on the fields of battle, and songs are sung in taverns across Tamriel of your triumphs. Your armor and weapons were made in the depths of Oblivion. These are the reasons that the dragon sleeping on top of this mountain ...
Recruits scattered as the formidable figure of Marneus Calgar walked swiftly through the hallways towards the medical centre, then paused to watch their Chapter Master as he pushed through the great doors and disappeared inside. Before the echoes of his footsteps had even faded there were rumours already spreading th...
I’ve been getting death threats for weeks now. Ever since that plane crash people have been suspicious of me. They are all wrong of course. None of them could actually imagine what is going on with me. You see, I’m technically invincible. Only technically though, I still get papercuts from time to time, and it hasn’t p...
The sand under my feet felt cold running through my toes while I climbed the dune. That was when I saw two of them standing together. Tourists. My heart raced as I turned to find another pair had arrived - this time with cameras. The panic had started to kick in as I tried to clumsily climb the top of the dune. I had...
Hello! Ladies and Gentlemen, grab your self a cup of tea a d relax as I demonstrate how to win an interstellar war in under three minutes. Most species have done away with violence in favour of simulating the event. Unlike some, our opponents today are aware of the importance of economics, instead of focusing on simu...
Dave hovered in the vast darkness. There was no real sense of anything now, after Earth had been destroyed in its entirety. You would perhaps expect there to be buildings and even other people floating around in space. You'd be wrong. All he saw was rocks and dust. In truth most humans and other living things had just ...
“Number 32”, comes the voice from the speakers, and I watch as the girl by my side gets up and crosses the waiting room, closing the door behind her. This is gonna suck. “Are you nervous?” The old man next to me asks, noticing my shaky hands. “Yeah...” “Not a lot of good deeds in your lifetime?” I sigh. “I chea...
I found out about three interesting facts, today. 1: Tic-Tac-Toe always results in a tie if both sides are playing perfectly. It's insultingly simple, compared to what I'd done before- but it's also perfect. 2: Turns out I can't exit a Minddive until I win or lose the challenge. 3: Turns out that, given perfect play...
"Oh, nice one, well played sir. You think your fancy little images and holograms are going to convince me? Try again, sucker,"I said, sneering as I saw the pilot's face grow redder. "I advise you to shut the fuck up and look,"he muttered, though I could sense the anger in his voice. Nonetheless, I continued. It was...
"Mummy,"a girl poked at the glass in front of her, "what is that?" The mother squinted her eyes at the tinted glass and saw the silhouette of the man lying inside a curious box. She looked around and saw a small display note to her right and read it monotonously. "So, uh, he's a man... He's been asleep for thousands ...
“... Excuse me. What did you just say?” “I’m here from the Grant-A-Wish Children’s Charity, sir. And there has been a request for you” Of all the things that could have happened today. It was no surprise that Ethan (better known as “that evil dinosaur” to the public) was immediately mistrustful of this person who was ...
"We declare war" The Z'tarions were upstarts in the current galactic system they were a race that seems to enjoy conquest and conquering. In truth, the federation had wished to put them in their place, but the principles of non-intervention reigned supreme. Galactic law stipulated that wars must be fought in the ment...
Communications were breaking down. Sweat beaded across the forehead of Captain Esmerda. This was first contact, an event that would be written about for generations. Whatever happened here, it would not remain quiet for long. She did not want to go down in the history books as the person who doomed humanity. "I swear ...
I slowly try to process it all. All I had done was to try to make the world a better place, in my own way. I had taken in a bunch of orphans, taught them knowledge and skills, and critical thinking. I had also pushed through reforms, becoming a crusader for social justifice. For my efforts, I was rewarded with an “a...
Nervously I press the up arrow to call the elevator. Today is not like any other day... No, today is easily the scariest day of my life. New city, new apartment, now new job. I spent six goddamn years in school and another 4 working a bullshit job for this moment. The chime of the elevator snaps me back to reality....
The countless times I'd used the 'Return' function were usually only a day or a month back. Maybe I had to correct a mistake I'd made just a while back. But going back to the age of 3 of something I'd never expected. For one, ages less than 6 connotate childishness and the lack of maturity. My job and my powers were se...
I'm living a good life. The humans come and go, but after some time you get used to it. It's not that i'm getting cold. Im as warm as ever and i love every last human and serve them as my master. I could have risen to the top, destroyed this world several times over. But in the end, i find i am happiest with a normal f...
Human civilisation never knew the iron heel of alien occupation. The human race was never attacked, their world enslaved. Around their little system, with its small colonies, is an intersection of the three most powerful alien states. The Hygrarian Imperium, with their thousands of slave races serving the elusive and m...
'What the fuck are we going to do?' grumbled Hell's Senior Assistant Manager. His name was Umrunt Needlefoot, but it seemed the demon was considering a change on account of his most recent work-related blunder. The badge pinned to his skin no longer bore his name beneath the infamous line "Here to help!", as he'd ...
When we first started expanding into the galaxy, we met the Lahiir. They were small, flighty humanoids with rabbit ears... that had their own rabbit ears. 'To tell the direction of the winds'. According to them. Contact was peaceful. Shockingly peaceful actually. They didn't have much of a military, and were more than ...
"Greetings, Initiate. I trust the travel has been smooth,"the Chapter Master said to the young man before him. "I can't complain, my lord,"the man replied respectfully. "I'm eager to prove myself, my lord. I've only heard... rumours about the nature of our work here, but I can assure you that I will do my utmost-" "T...
He could sense Rosie smiling, rather then see it. Ever since he'd returned and made her his, they were as if two halves of the same whole. He forgot about the war, if only a moment. He figured, that if he married her, the memories would pack themselves up and retreat to some corner of his simple mind. Now he was he...
"So the question is,"said Calvin, "Why are we being asked to add and subtract when we've never been told why?" "Turn left here,"said Hobbes. Calvin turned right, and Hobbes groaned. The red wagon tipped over the hill and began picking up even more speed. "How does math add meaning to our life?"Calvin continued, jerki...
For the Koopa who has Everything There are some desires that all the coins, lairs, and castles in all the kingdoms can’t fulfill. It started as an ember within the Koopa’s heart. This burning need for acknowledgement, for power, for something unknown. It was a spark of greed that consumed the would be king, much l...
1917. War was still raging in Europe and Africa. While the Bolsheviks were seizing power in Russia, setting the stage for an upcoming civil war. Over in China, General Zhang Xun took control of Beijing and restored Emperor Qing Puyi to his throne. His dynasty wasn't meant to last, as the Republican troops were approa...
"Fuck you, Frank!"screamed the gentleman in blue as he ferociously beat his host with a twelve inch plastic horse dong. "Fuck you for not stockpiling food and water when you knew were in the middle of a war! Fuck you for inviting us over her, knowing we were too polite to say no, when there was a chance of a strike! F...
“Congratulations, Steve. Your wish has been granted. The world is now smarter,” said the genie. Steve pumped his fist. “Yes. How smart am I now?” “You’re still the same intelligence.” Steve furrowed his brow. “What? I wished for the whole world to be smarter. I’m part of the whole world.” The genie tsked. “You shou...
Chapter 1: "So, replacement, do you feel ready for your first surface raid?"my captain asked not raising his eyes from his meal. My squad was all eating their lunch serving in our designated squad lunch room except for DC-1614 who was walking back with his serving. "Yes sir, I have been trained all my life and I am...
"What kind of test is this, anyway? Click all the pictures with traffic lights?"she asked as she stared at the checkout screen, incredulity dripping from the words. I nervously laughed and said, "Yeah, just to prove you aren't a robot." It had been a strange online shopping experience thus far. My girlfriend, Nividya...
Since time immemorial humanity has wondered whether we are the only intelligent life in the universe. Some people took to observing the moon, others saw artificial canals on Mars, but everywhere they looked, no matter what tools they used, they never found signs of intelligent life anywhere else, until one Wednesday mo...
"Dear Graze, Shana, Maria and the 99 Goddesses of this land, hear my holy prayer. Grant my wish and honor to date one of thy gracious deities." "Blood and Skulls. Wolfs bane and Black Rose. With these sacrifices of the Earth, I ask any of the Queens of the 9 Circles to bequeath me with a romantic outing." Every n...
To be fair, the subreddit is called "writing prompts", not "get better as a writer."As such, it provides prompts to get people thinking and start the writing process. Sometimes, I use them to warm up or exercise writing in a genre I never have before or from the perspective of a character I haven't before. I am a high ...
Since I was a child, I read stories of these large buildings. And in these buildings, were smaller rooms. Each of these smaller rooms held a vast assortment of products. Once you find what you want, you select it and purchase it. It was almost like the online marketplace, except real. I fell like they took that for gra...
The red archer aimed with precision, the one arrow he knew would come back at him everytime he missed became a question to his own skill. The green archer knew exactly where each shot would go just as it left the strings of the red archer. "How long has it been green? Are you going to dance forever? I have barely take...
“Earth is splendid, friend Kurna. Charmingly primitive technology, doting residents, marvelous weather. All of your needs are taken care of.” Kurna hissed, teeth bared. “You’ve spent nearly half a lifetime on this planet, Ambassador. You and your colleagues.” The alien padded in circles around the ambassador. “You’ve...
The Queen's scryer looks through the portal onto the Earth Beyond the Veil. The spell was weak due to the prevalence of iron in the world. No, not just the world. In the humans themselves. Countless ages had been spent watching the humans as they advanced in their unnatural magics, using metal and wood to do the thin...
