[WP] Write the story of a mythological character in a modern setting.
Demi always told me not to go too far down the dirt road. "Lots of people out there aren't bad," she would say. "They mind their own business and don't care what you do with yours.

[WP] A professional athlete who grew up in poverty gets their first big paycheck.

I was holding something I’d worked for my entire life, ...

“Why did we ever start smoking these things, anyway?” Ally asked as she flicked her wrist downward, sending a cascade of ashes toward the ground. If she was being completely honest, she didn’t like smoking at all. In fact, she would have quit years ago if she hadn’t been so intent on keeping up appearances. “Becaus...

"I should have known seeing it had come from Washington." I said. We pulled out our cigs. My pack the yellow and his as always was blue. I spark up my lighter and gave him a light before starting mine. Luke took a long drag of his cig, exhaled "Nothing like good old Natural American Spirit" "You always were more o...

“Derrick, I didn’t know you smoked,” said Henry. “I don’t, it’s my first one,” answered Derrick as he took his first drag. Henry had his own cigarette in his mouth and a dark show lit it up for him. He was thankful for this minor luxury as the snow was tumbling down and a cold wind blew right through him. “It’s a ...

Dan stuck the Marlboro Gold beneath his lip and slipped the now-empty pack into his back pocket; Dan had never been one to mess up his car. He motioned for Kate to hand him the lighter sitting in the cup holder between them. He could’ve done it himself but her hand was hovering over it. Dan was scared to move her hand ...

"Look, Tom, it's a shitty situation, but it isn't my right to force your hand like she did." "Damnit Ray," Tom puffed out a ring of smoke "Y'always had to be such a damned martyr. Remember back in '07 when we got caught drinking at the football game? Friggin' homecoming, and the only thing getting smashed worse than o...

He takes out his flip-lighter and holds it gently under her cigarette. After the tip starts to burn, he turns the lighter to his own stoge and takes the first glorious inhale. Sitting on the wooden stairs leading into the winding creek that held so many memories for them, they took the first few drags in silence and st...

It was the end of a big night and I got stuck taking out the trash. I didn't care though. The fat wad of twenties in my pocket eased my frustration. I tied up the bags of bottles and then loaded them up on the cart. It was my favorite part of the night; the after glow of a successful shift. I just needed to dump t...

I took a drag off my cigarette and looked at him. We both knew that when this was over, we'd never see each other again. I take another drag and look at the sunset, then back at him. He meets my eyes for a split second, then looks away. With that we realized that there was nothing more to be said. I looked back at the ...

He's the most flight-prone guy I've ever known. Even as kids together he'd tell me he was going to fly far away. I've loved him like this forever, always tired and waiting. He'd appear at the end of a relationship, or the start of a drug habit, or in the middle of some crisis or another. Hang out, smoking with me, the...

Rachel took a long drag of the cigarette, the end glowing brighter as it ate away at the paper. Her face tightened momentarily before she broke into a fit of coughs, pounding her chest with her free hand to force the remaining smoke out. She shook her head back and forth as she reached up, handing the cigarette to Cari...

(Using some characters from an RP here. I’ll do my best to write it well, but I apologize in advance for any possible confusion.) The operation had gone to shit. Our intelligence was off, and the Templars knew full well that an attack was coming. Out of the five who were under my command, and I only knew that Reaper w...

It's not as stereotypical as one might be led to believe; parting for the last time that is. I'd known Jimmy for the better part of my life. We'd grown to be acquaintances and, more recently, friends. It's not easy telling anyone that you're leaving least of all a friend. Most people tend to hide these kinds of things ...

"Mate, I'm bloody well chopped", I said with my eyes as wide as I could get them to stay open. "U W0t m8?", Duncan replied. "I'm faded somethin' fierce mate", I coughed. "A fuckin spliff does ya pretty good don't it" "That it does", I mustered as I reached in my pocket for a fag. "Fancy one?" I offered. "A stick's...

We sat on the back porch overlooking the lake we'd skinny dipped, the woods we'd run through, and the sky he was leaving to sail off into. "Sure makes you think about our scale in things doesn't it." muttered Aaron "What was that?" I said "Ahhh nothing. You want one?" He gestured to me with the pack of cigarettes. W...

On a curb, sharing a cigarette with my then best friend. We had just left Vegas, we were still 400 miles from home. We both knew something was wrong. She asked me, "are you okay?", "yeah" I responded. I followed, "are you?", "yeah". The silence between us had never felt so uncomfortable, unbearable. From there, we knew...

"It's been a minute since i've had a stoge" "heh, yeah" There was an awkward pause that followed. You aren't supposed to smoke on the train platform, but it was 1:30am and she was waiting with me for the last train going to the airport. My flight to Holland, where my wife awaited me, was pushed back a day and I had a...

I dont know... the room ist empty. A white empty room, nothing in here except a table and two chairs. I dont know why i'm here. As i walked in the Room, Daniel raises his head.

Dusk was settling in, and the air began to cool after a what had been a hot September day. The crickets in the hedges were calling out the arrival of the evening. A late summer breeze coaxed whispers from the leaves of the overgrown oak in the neighbor's yard. Connor shifted his foot, and the roof shingle beneath it g...

I hope I'm not out of place commenting on the prompt, but the first thing I thought of when I saw it was the last scene with Avon Barksdale and Stringer Bell together in the Wire, except replace the cigarettes with whisky. I won't spoil why they each knew they'd not see each other again, but it was a great scene.

As the mechanical arm failed, the reflector seemed to me to descend gently back toward its counterpart, almost as if pondering the consequences of its impending communion. Alan was closer, but I reacted first. I reached the control panel in three steps and mashed the abort. In retrospect, if I had taken an extra second...

"Look at you." Jake took a deep drag "Just look at you." The other nodded, beginning to smile. He spoke back to him with similar admiration, perhaps a little fear crept into his grimace. "I can see every pore on your face. I've never looked this close before." He too placed his cigarette to his lips, mirroring Jakes a...
