[WP] The Ides of March (a collaboration with /r/SketchDaily) | I brushed my hair away as I scuffed the dirt from my knee. The shallow pain arching up my thigh told me I'd cut it somehow. My eyes began to adjust to the alley I had been pushed into. I arched my neck around the corner of the dim alley. *Erik said I should never do that*. A pair of thick rubber boots were all that was... | 3 | 0 | 23 | 25,981 |
[WP] The Ides of March (a collaboration with /r/SketchDaily) | The sun rose but I didn't. This was the only part of the day I had peace; no-one was shouting and I didn't want to wake them up. As time passes, memories are the most precious possessions, and I sank back into mine.
I didn't think I could do it. I mean, the act was easy enough, like carving a joint of raw meat. That w... | 2 | 0 | 23 | 25,982 |

[WP] The world wakes up to find that every woman lost a foot in height and every man gained one. Tell me your story of that day. | "Huh, I feel taller," said the man.

[WP] After identification documents were imposed on the population, an immortal realizes that it will be difficult to pose as a different person every few years to avoid coming out as one. | [deleted] | 2 | 0 | 25 | 25,986 |
[WP] After identification documents were imposed on the population, an immortal realizes that it will be difficult to pose as a different person every few years to avoid coming out as one. | "I'm sorry sir, we can't accept this identification, its obviously a fake." the clerk behind the counter said, handing me back my ID with a sympathetic look on her face. I sighed and mumbled an apology before leaving the store without my goods. Looking at the flimsy piece of plastic I realized that it was about time to... | 3 | 0 | 25 | 25,987 |
[WP] A Genetic Engineer Dedicated his Life for it. Now it's Done. He Created the Ultimate Beast. | Hamon slowly breathed out as the machine in front of him hummed and hissed. Steam was coming from the cracks of the machine, whistling as it escaped. Hamon eyed the gauges: There were five of them: humidity, oxygen, pressure, temperature, and sound. The last, as proclaimed by Osvaldo, Hamon's partner, was said to be us... | 2 | 0 | 5 | 25,988 |
[WP] 20 years into the future, Kevin from Home Alone 2 has a year to set up his house for The Purge and do whatever is necessary to protect himself. | I have a general idea and I don't want to lose it, so I'll lay a skeleton down. If I have time later on the day, I'll get to writing it:
Kevin is older and living alone; purging is now a part of his life. Every year during the purge, his family gets together in a reunion type gathering as a way to connect and stay saf... | 14 | 0 | 70 | 25,989 |

[WP] 20 years into the future, Kevin from Home Alone 2 has a year to set up his house for The Purge and do whatever is necessary to protect himself. | Not a response to your prompt but I wrote this a few days abo. Old Man Culkin is in the air, apparently.
*The year is 2051. Kevin is doing his sudokus, waiting for his stool softener to kick in. Since his parrot died only the oxygen tank's gentle wheeze provides a backing track to his life. Kevin wonders how his kids... | 1 | 0 | 70 | 25,991 |
[WP] 20 years into the future, Kevin from Home Alone 2 has a year to set up his house for The Purge and do whatever is necessary to protect himself. | Phil took a long drag from his cigarette staring at the house next door. "Tomorrow is the purge," he thought to himself. His eyes casually glanced down his barren fence line all the way down to his mailbox. He couldn't prove it but he knew that his neighbor was salting his roses and putting dead birds in his mailbo... | 10 | 0 | 70 | 25,992 |
[WP] A sentient ham sandwich washes up on a island populated by a single starving man. | Years, years of sailing through the harsh winds of berating seas; I have long suffered the tortuous waters of Poseidon’s labyrinthine world, albeit free from man’s noxious grasp. Here, however, I rest: My reckoning arrives in silica; quartz through millennia of erosion. Here I rest, my life a fruitless endeavor of expl... | 2 | 0 | 22 | 25,993 |

[WP] A sentient ham sandwich washes up on a island populated by a single starving man. | Day 3:
He watches me day and night now. As if I might grow legs and hightail it off the island somehow. His eyes pierce my doughy exterior, undressing my dressing, devouring with his mind's eye my tender meat.
So far my promises are starting to ware thin. As the days go by it is unlikely that my knowlege of stock ma... | 3 | 0 | 22 | 25,995 |
[WP] A sentient ham sandwich washes up on a island populated by a single starving man. | Stout Oliver Alexander stood sweating over a ham, cheese, lettuce, mayo, and pickle sandwich on white bread that was not there, on his island, the day before. It was wet, but still looked edible, delicious even. Before he could consume it, though, it spoke.
"I wouldn't," said the sandwich.
"You wouldnt?" replied Oliv... | 17 | 0 | 22 | 25,996 |

[WP] A sentient ham sandwich washes up on a island populated by a single starving man. | A bulbous man stood at the railing of his moderately sized, not-so-moderately priced fishing boat. He was anchored about 10 miles off shore of Miami Beach, spending his weekend fishing, drinking and enjoying his newly-found bachelorhood (the divorce from his quick tempered, gold-digging bitch of an ex-wife was just fin... | 1 | 0 | 22 | 25,998 |
[WP] A sentient ham sandwich washes up on a island populated by a single starving man. | "Eat me!"
Wilson stared blankly, grazing his mind again for another way to put Ham Sandwich off of his rant for another couple of hours. He thought of something, decided it'd be better not to say anything at all, and apathetically stared off into the orange sky.
"Well I can't just eat the thing, Wilson, who *kno... | 1 | 0 | 22 | 25,999 |
